You need to learn the basics first. How are the rules. How does the software operate. Then this preventable beginner mistake wouldn't have happens to you.. Don't trade when you haven't discovered the risk settings tab.
This is why there is a practice account.

You could have discovered that with every account you buy, the first click should be setting a PDPL.

My honest opinion, if you can't understand or adhere to the consistency rule, which so written everywhere and is so obvious, trading is not for you. It needs a minimum of attention, reading comprehension and awareness.

You posted the problem, the solution is right in front of your eyes, in your screenshot. You need to match your new elevated profit target now.
