Payout Security Flow

Legend​

  • Red nodes → Blocking decisions / locks
  • Green nodes → Allowed operations / unlocks
  • Yellow nodes → Warning states (assumed floor)

Payout Modes​

  1. block_all: Blocks all trading (entries + exits)
  2. block_new_entries: Blocks entries, allows exits/reduces
  3. allow_manage_only: Blocks entries, allows exits/reduces (same as block_new_entries for exits)

Floor Source Priority​

  1. TopstepX Reported (best): From searchAccounts() API response
  2. Config (good): User-set account_floor_balance
  3. Assumed (warning): Falls back to starting_balance (requires verification)

Key Security Points​

  • Trading locked immediately on payout request
  • Floor logic replaces trailing drawdown when MLL=0 in funded accounts
  • Floor source clearly marked in details.payoutSecurity.floorSource
  • Assumed floor requires manual verification (warning badge in UI)
