Our Rules

Last Revised on 14 Feb 2026

How it works

  • Pay a challenge fee and receive a simulated trading account
  • Trade to reach the profit target while staying within the limits
  • If you successfully complete the challenge, you become eligible for a funded account
  • If you fail, that attempt ends, and you may purchase a new attempt
  • You do not deposit personal trading capital

Two limits. Equity must stay above both.

Two limits table with descriptions

Your account has two risk limits. If your equity reaches either limit at any time, the account is closed automatically.

Balance vs Equity

TL;DR

  • Balance reflects closed trades only
  • Equity includes open trades
  • All risk limits are enforced on equity (open trades count)

Passing a Challenge

Maximum drawdown limit example

TL;DR

To pass a challenge:

  • Reach the profit target on balance (profits must be realized)
  • Stay within daily loss and maximum drawdown

There are no minimum trading days, no consistency rules, and no time limit; however, at least one trade must be placed every 90 days to keep the account active.

Daily Loss Limit

Daily loss is the maximum amount your account can lose in a single calendar day. It recalculates daily at 00:00 UTC and is recalculated each day based on your account balance. Because of this, the daily loss level can move up or down over time. In the event of a payout, the daily loss level is reduced by the payout amount.

Daily loss limit example

Daily Loss Limit Example

Start balance: $100,000 → 3% = $3,000 → Daily loss level: $97,000

End-day balance: $110,000 → 3% = $3,300 → New level: $106,700

Maximum Drawdown Limit

Maximum drawdown is the maximum total loss allowed over the life of the account. The percentage depends on the challenge type (e.g., 6% on 1-Step and 8% on 2-Step challenges). It is calculated from your highest balance reached (High Water Mark) and can only move up as your balance reaches new highs. It does not move down when losses occur. In the event of a payout, both the High Water Mark and the drawdown level are reduced by the payout amount.

Maximum Drawdown Limit Example

Example (1-Step Challenge):

Start balance: $100,000

Drawdown buffer: $6,000 → Drawdown level: $94,000

Highest balance: $105,000 → New drawdown level: $99,000

Example (2-Step Challenge):

Start balance: $100,000

Drawdown buffer: $8,000 → Drawdown level: $92,000

Highest balance: $105,000 → New drawdown level: $97,000

Bottom line

Equity must remain above both risk limits, daily loss recalculates each day, maximum drawdown follows your highest balance, profit targets require realized profits, and all limit levels are visible on the dashboard and terminal.
