Is a Stop Loss Required?

At X-Funded, the use of a stop loss depends on the account type.

  • Challenge Accounts: A stop loss is optional.
  • Funded Accounts: A stop loss is mandatory and must be placed within 5 minutes after opening a trade. Once placed, you are free to modify the stop loss at any time.
  • Instant Funded Accounts: A stop loss must be placed within 2 minutes after opening a trade, and it can also be modified afterward.

 

Failure to place a stop loss within the required time frame results in a rule violation.
