# Known Limitations

Tradespace is designed to deliver seamless trade synchronization across accounts and brokers, but there are platform-specific and general constraints to be aware of. Familiarizing yourself with these limitations will help you plan your trading approach and avoid unexpected behavior.

***

#### ATM (Automated Trade Management) — Unsupported Strategy Types

The following ATM strategy types are **not currently supported** in Tradespace:

* **Multi Bracket** (multiple Take Profit and Stop Loss targets)
* **Stop Limit**
* **Trail Stop**
* **Trail Stop Limit**
* **Auto Breakeven**
* **Auto Trail**
* **Auto Breakeven + Auto Trail**

***

#### Stop Limit Orders

Certain types of Stop Limit orders are **not supported** in Tradespace. It's important to distinguish between a Stop Limit order and a standard Stop (market) order:

* **Standard Stop (market) orders** — commonly used as stop losses — **are fully supported**.
* **The following Stop Limit orders** below are currently **not supported** in synchronization:
  * Trail Stop
  * Trail Stop Limit
  * Auto Breakeven
  * Auto Trail
  * Auto Breakeven + Auto Trail

If you use stop limits in your strategy, be aware that these stop order types may not be replicated to follower accounts properly. See a more detailed description below of each type.

***

#### Trailing Stop Orders

Dynamically adjusting stop-loss orders that move with price (trailing stops) are **not supported** for automated synchronization. If you need to trail a stop, you can do so manually by adjusting the order directly — manual modifications are supported and will sync correctly.

***

#### Trailing Stop Limit Orders

Trailing Stop Limit orders — which combine a trailing mechanism with a limit condition — are **not supported**. As with trailing stops, manually moving and updating these orders is an available workaround.

***

#### Dragging Stop Orders

Moving a Stop order across the current market price (for example, dragging a Buy Stop from above the last traded price to below it so that it triggers immediately) is **not supported** in Tradespace.

This constraint stems from broker-level restrictions — most brokers do not permit this type of stop order repositioning. Tradespace is bound by these broker rules and cannot override them.

**Context:** Chart-based trading interfaces such as TradingView and ProjectX often provide drag-and-drop order management, which can create the expectation that all order types support this behavior. In practice, broker support varies and is not consistent across providers.

**Limit orders behave differently.** Dragging Limit orders across the market price is generally supported across most brokers and data providers (including Tradovate, NinjaTrader, ProjectX, DxFeed, and Rithmic):

* Dragging a **Limit Buy** from below the current price to above it will typically execute immediately.
* Dragging a **Limit Sell** from above the current price to below it will also typically execute immediately.

This limitation applies **specifically to Stop orders** — not to Limit orders.

#### ProjectX Live Account as Leader

At this time, Tradespace does **not support** a ProjectX Live account as a leader account. This capability is on the roadmap and will be communicated when available.
