Trading rules

What is the profit target?

Plus buttonCross button

The profit target is the specific amount of profit a trader needs to achieve during a trading period or challenge to progress to the next trading phase. Example: If a trader on a $10,000 account reaches $10,500 equity with a 5% profit target, they have passed the challenge.

What is daily loss?

Plus buttonCross button

he maximum allowable loss a trader can incur in a single trading day. Exceeding this limit results in failing the trading challenge or termination of the funded account. Calculated based on the trader's equity at 00:00. Example: With a 5% daily loss limit, if a $10,000 account reaches $9,500 equity, the challenge fails.

What are minimum trading days?

Plus buttonCross button

To successfully pass the challenge, the trader needs to open new positions on at least 5 different days.

What is the max trailing drawdown?

Plus buttonCross button

A dynamic loss limit that moves up as a trader's equity increases, locking in gains. The trailing drawdown stops adjusting when it reaches a defined threshold of your initial balance and serves as the maximum allowable loss from that point onward. A 5% trailing stop follows your account balance until you achieve 5% profits. Once your account hits a 5% profit, the maximum trailing drawdown locks in at your starting capital and no longer follows your account’s changes. Example 1: If you start with a $10,000 account, your maximum drawdown will be 5%, which is $500. The account equity should not fall below $9,500 at any time. Example 2: If your account balance grows to $10,400, your max drawdown will now be $10,400 - $500 = $9,900. The account should not drop below $9,900 at any point. Example 3: If your account balance reaches $11,500, your maximum trailing drawdown will be locked at $10,000. Your account should never fall below $10,000 in equity or balance.
