  • Progressive limits (stop and loss) are displayed as a "sloping" line (non-cumulative) or as a curved line (cumulative, a straight line in logarithmic view).

  • Progressive short limits have a negative slope while "normal" limits have a positive slope.

  • In charts whose currency differs from the limit currency, the limits are displayed as curves calculated using exchange rates.
