How it works:
At 17:00 New York time, your daily loss limit is reset. It’s calculated from the lower of your account balance or equity at that time. Both closed trades and floating losses count toward it.
Limits by account type:
1-Step Challenge: 4%
2-Step Challenge: 5%
Instant Funding: 3.5%
Instant Funding Lite: 3%
Finotive Pro (1-Step): 4%
Finotive Pro (2-Step): 5%
Why we have it: To protect traders from a single bad day wiping out their account. Even skilled traders have losing days, and this rule ensures you survive them.
Benefits for you:
Keeps your account alive after bad sessions so you can recover.
Stops emotional “tilt” or revenge trading from spiralling out of control.
Encourages good money management and consistency over time.
Builds habits that align with professional trading standards.
What happens if I breach this rule?
Breaching the daily drawdown is a hard breach. The account is closed immediately, as the risk model assumes recovery is no longer possible once the limit is broken.
