# What happens if I breach Notional Volume?

Explains immediate strike and reset.

A Notional Volume breach is a Soft Breach - Immediate Strike with no warning stage.

In Challenge or Pro Challenge, it results in one Strike and an Account Reset. If the Account Balance is below break-even, the Reset is placed on hold until the trader returns the Account Balance to at least break-even.

In Simulated Funded Challenge, Simulated Funded Pro, or Instant Funding, it results in one Strike and Reward Payment reduction to 10% for the relevant Payout Cycle. Five cumulative Strikes result in permanent account closure.
