A risk gate is the component on the path of every order, between the code that decides to send it and the order gateway, that checks it against the firm’s limits and refuses it if any is exceeded; nothing reaches the venue without passing it. A fail-closed design is one whose failures stop the activity it protects: a risk gate that has lost its limits, its reference prices or its view of the firm’s position refuses orders rather than passing them.
