Trading Rules (Funded Account Only)
Maximum Loss Limit: 6% of the initial account size.
The Maximum Loss Limit represents the total amount you are permitted to lose on your account. It is calculated based on your initial account balance and defines the minimum equity or balance level your account must not reach. If this limit is breached, it is considered a hard violation and will result in immediate account closure.
Example:
For a $100,000 account, your equity or balance cannot hit $94,000.
Maximum Daily Loss: 4% of the recorded equity.
The Daily Loss Limit represents the maximum amount you are permitted to lose within a single trading day. It is calculated based on the higher value between your starting balance or equity at the beginning of the day. Breaching this limit constitutes a hard violation and will result in immediate account closure.
Example 1: Higher Equity
$100,000 balance with $105,000 equity, your equity cannot hit $100,800 that day.
Example 2: Higher Balance
$100,000 balance with a $99,000 equity, your equity cannot hit $94,000 that day.
- The Daily Loss Limit resets at 02:00 UTC+0.
Stop Loss Placement
All funded accounts are subject to a mandatory Stop Loss rule. A Stop Loss must be placed on every trade at the time of execution. Once set, the Stop Loss may be modified as needed.
- Any trade (single or multiple positions) left open without a Stop Loss for more than 5 minutes will result in immediate account closure.
- If a trade without a Stop Loss is opened and closed before 5 minutes, the account will not be closed. However, the payout will be rejected and the account will be reset.
Example 1: No stop loss more than 5 minutes
1 trade is opened at 12:00 UTC and left open without an SL until 12:06 UTC. Breaching this limit constitutes a hard violation and will result in immediate account closure.
Example 2: No stop loss less than 5 minutes
1 trade is opened at 12:00 UTC without stop loss, and closed at 12:03 UTC. Breaching this limit constitutes a soft violation and will result in payout rejection and account reset.
45% Consistency
All funded accounts are subject to a mandatory 45% Consistency rule. No single winning trade may contribute more than 45% of the total accumulated profits. Breaching this limit is considered a soft violation and will result in payout rejection and an account reset.
Multiple positions opened at the relative same time, direction or instruments will be treated as a single trade for consistency calculation purposes.
- Consistency Rule Formula:
- Consistency Rule (%) = (Largest Single Winning Trade ÷ Total Profit) × 100
Example 1: Single trade
Account size: $100,000
Total profits: $5,000
Largest single winning trade: $2,500
(2,500 ÷ 5,000) × 100 = 50% Consistency, This result exceeds the 45% Consistency rule and is considered as a soft violation.
Example 2: Single trade with multiple positions
Account size: $100,000
Total profits: $5,000
A trade is opened using multiple positions and closed in profit as follows:
Position 1: $1,000
Position 2: $1,000
Position 3: $600
Since these positions were opened as part of the same trade, they are treated as one single trade, resulting in a combined profit of $2,600.
(2,600 ÷ 5,000) × 100 = 52% Consistency, this result exceeds the 45% Consistency rule and is considered as a soft violation.
1% Risk Per Trade
All funded accounts are subject to a mandatory 1% risk per trade rule. No single trade may risk 1% of initial account size. Breaching this limit is considered a hard violation and will result in payout rejection and an account closure.
Multiple positions opened at the relative same time, direction or instruments will be treated as a single trade for risk calculation purposes.
- Risk Calculation Formula:
- Risk Per Trade (buy) = (Entry Price – SL Price) × Lot Size × Contract Size
- Risk Per Trade (Sell) = (SL Price – Entry Price) × Lot Size × Contract Size
Example 1: Single trade
Pair: XAUUSD
Direction: Buy
Account Size: $100,000
Entry Price: 5,000
SL Price: 4,990
Lot Size: 1 lot
(5,000 – 4,990) × 1 × 100 = $1,000. This result hit $1,000 as maximum risk allowed and considered as a hard violation and will result in payout rejection and account closure.
Example 2: Single trade with multiple positions
Pair: XAUUSD
Direction: Sell
Account Size: $100,000
Entry Price: 4,980
SL Price: 4,990
Lot Size on position 1: 0.3 lot
Lot Size on position 2: 0.3 lot
Lot Size on position 3: 0.5 lot
Position 1
(4,990 – 4,980) × 0.3 × 100 = $300.
Position 2
(4,990 – 4,980) × 0.3 × 100 = $300.
Position 3
(4,990 – 4,980) × 0.5 × 100 = $500.
Since these positions were opened as part of the same trade, they are treated as one single trade, resulting in a combined risk per trade of $1,100. This result hit $1,000 as maximum risk allowed and considered as a hard violation and will result in payout rejection and account closure.
