AquaFunded provides immediate access to a funded account, allowing you to begin trading without delay. To maximise this opportunity, it's crucial to have a flexible trading strategy and a strong risk management plan in place.

Instant Funding Pro Model

The Instant Funding Standard Model offers immediate access to a funded account with specific rules for managing your trading risks and profits.

Account Violations (Hard Breach)

All Instant funding Models have trailing drawdown.

Hard beach are serious violations to our established rules. A hard breach happens when a trader exceeds the maximum daily loss or total drawdown limit, resulting in the immediate closure of the account.

Max Daily Drawdown – 3% (Trailing)

What is it?
The maximum daily loss limit is 3% of your initial account balance.
How is it calculated?
The daily drawdown is calculated daily at 00:00 UTC based on your account balance or equity. Your equity must not drop by more than 3% of your initial account balance in a single trading day.

Example:
For a $100,000 account, the daily drawdown limit is $3,000. If your account balance or equity drops below $97,000, you will exceed your daily loss limit.

Max Total Drawdown – 6% (Trailing)

What is it?
The maximum total drawdown is 6% of your highest recorded account balance, making it a trailing drawdown. This means the drawdown limit increases as your account balance grows, but it will never exceed 6% of the highest balance reached.

How is it calculated?

The total drawdown is calculated based on your highest account balance. If your account balance increases, your drawdown limit also increases, but it will always remain 6% below your highest balance.

Example:

For a $100,000 account:

If your account reaches $105,000, your trailing drawdown limit becomes $99,000 (6% below your highest balance).
If your account then drops to $103,000, your drawdown limit remains at $99,000, because it is based on the highest balance reached, not the current balance.

Your drawdown limit follows your highest balance and remains 6% below that peak value at all times. It does not decrease if your account balance drops — it only moves up when a new high is reached.

Your drawdown limit follows your highest balance and remains 6% of that value at all times.

Consistency Rule

What is it?
The consistency rule ensures steady and sustainable profits over time. It states that no single trading day can account for 15% or more of your total profits during a payout period.

Example:

If you make $1,500 in one trading day, your total profits must reach at least $10,000 to be eligible to request a payout. You cannot request a payout until the highest profit day falls below 15% of the total profits for the period.

What Happens if I Violate the 15% Rule?

Will my account be terminated?
No, violating the 15% rule will not result in account termination. However, you will be unable to request a payout until your highest profit trading day is below 15% of your total profits.

What should I do next?
Continue trading and generating profits until your highest profit day falls below the 15% threshold. Once this happens, you will be eligible to request a payout again.

Maximum Loss Per Trade Policy

If your floating PnL (profit and loss) drops below -2% of the account starting balance, the account will be permanently closed. This ensures strict adherence to risk management protocols and safeguards the integrity of our funding process.

Example:

For a $50,000 account balance, if your combined open PnL across all active trades reaches a loss of $1,000 (-2%), the account will be closed immediately.

This rule emphasizes the importance of disciplined trading and risk management, ensuring that traders operate within acceptable risk parameters to maintain the longevity of their trading careers.

Consequences for Exceeding the -2% Risk Limit:

- Immediate and permanent closure of the account.

- No further trading activity will be permitted on the breached account

Important Note for $300k & $400k Accounts

For $300,000 and $400,000 accounts, a stricter floating risk limit applies.

If your floating PnL drops below -1% of the account balance, the account will be permanently closed.

All other Instant Funding Standard, Pro, and AquaMan accounts remain subject to the -2% floating risk limit.
