Symbol allowlist — saved my receiver during news

Receiver allowlist: only $EURUSD, $GBPUSD, $XAUUSD. Everything else gets dropped. Sounds restrictive but it stopped a noisy provider from blowing through me on $US30 during a CPI release.

0.5% per trade on a prop is the right number. Anyone going higher is gambling with the firm's money.

Score: 14

The session filter dropping at the receiver (not blocking at sender) is exactly what I wanted. Didn't realise it worked that way.
