Account Violations (Hard Breach)
All 2 Step Standard Models have static drawdown.
Hard breach 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. This applies during evaluation and funded.
Daily Drawdown Limit – 4%
What is it?
The maximum daily loss allowed is 4%.
How is it calculated?
At 00:00 UTC, we calculate the daily drawdown based on the higher value of either your account balance or equity. We subtract 4% from this value to set the daily loss limit for the next trading day.
Examples:
$100K Account with $2,000 floating profit at 00:00 UTC:
Account equity is $102,000.
Daily loss limit: $102,000 - $4,080 = $97,920.
2. $100K Account with $2,000 floating loss at 00:00 UTC:
Account equity is $98,000, but the balance is $100,000 (higher value used).
Daily loss limit: $100,000 - $4,000 = $96,000.
Maximum Total Loss – 10%
What is it?
The maximum total loss allowed is 10% of your initial account balance. This includes all realized and unrealized losses.How is it calculated?
If your account equity, including any floating trades, falls below 90% of the initial balance, your account will breach.
Example:
For a $100,000 account:
Maximum total loss is 10% of $100,000 = $10,000.
Account equity, including unrealized losses, must not fall below $90,000.
Minimum Trading Days
There is a minimum trading period of 3 days, during which you must achieve at least 0.5% profit per day. These days also do not have to be consecutive, and any day with sufficient trading activity will count.
