# Alpha Max Daily Loss

`POST /v1/me/accounts/{account_id}/alphas/{deploy_id}/max-daily-loss`

## Request

- Base URL: `https://api.quantradin.com` (the document declares no server; this is the origin it was published from)
- URL: `https://api.quantradin.com/v1/me/accounts/{account_id}/alphas/{deploy_id}/max-daily-loss`
- Auth: none declared

DESK-WIDE DAILY LOSS LIMIT, this bot's own NUMBER (Wave A) — set (or
clear with null) the figure THIS bot enforces. Cleared → it follows the
desk's number (or nothing, if that is unset too).

Note carefully what is per-bot and what is not: the LIMIT is this bot's,
the LOSS it is compared against is the whole DESK's realized P&L for the
ET session. So a conservative bot can hold a tighter line than its
neighbours on the same desk, but every one of them is watching the same
money. Owner/desk-pair scoped (404 cross-desk, via _owned_deployment),
audited like the other per-bot edits. A LIVE-FILL knob — the grader
never reads it.
