Account Violations (Hard Breach)

All 2 Step Pro 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. This applies during evaluation and funded.

Daily Drawdown Limit – 5%

What does this mean?

The maximum daily loss allowed is 5% of your previous days ending balance/equity high. This is calculated daily at 00:00 UTC, based on the higher value of either your account balance or account equity at that time.

How is it calculated?

At the 00:00 UTC day reset:

  1. We check the higher of your account balance or account equity.

  2. We subtract 5% of the higher balance/equity from this value to determine your daily drawdown limit for the next trading day.

Examples (Based on a $100,000 Account):

  • $100K Account with $2,000 floating profit at 00:00 UTC:

    • Account equity = $102,000

    • Daily loss limit = $102,000 - $5,100 = $96,900

  • $100K Account with $2,000 floating loss at 00:00 UTC:

    • Account equity = $98,000, but balance = $100,000 (higher value is used)

    • Daily loss limit = $100,000 - $5,000 = $95,000

  • No open trades at 00:00 UTC:

    • Daily drawdown is calculated as 5% of the closed balance.

    • If your balance is $101,000, your limit = $101,000 - $5,050 = $95,950

Maximum Total Loss – 10%

What is it?

A 10% trailing drawdown means your account equity must not fall more than 10% from your highest balance / equity. It includes both realised and unrealised losses and is recalculated as your account value increases.

How is it calculated?

For a $100,000 account: The trailing drawdown limit is always 10% of starting balance, below your current balance (or equity, depending on how it's defined by your platform).

As your balance increases, the drawdown limit moves up.

Examples:

Account reaches $105,000:

Trailing drawdown limit = $105,000 − 10% = $95,000

Account then drops to $103,000:

Trailing drawdown limit = $105,000 − 10% = $95,000

Account then rises to $108,000:

New trailing drawdown limit = $108,000 − 10% = $98,000

Your account equity must always stay above this 10% trailing limit, which moves with your balance both up and down.


Consistency Rule

What is it?
​

The consistency rule is designed to encourage steady and consistent trading. On the Two Step Pro funded stage, your highest profit trading day cannot account for 50% or more of your total profits during a payout period.
​

Example:
​

If you make $1,500 in one trading day, your total profits must exceed $3,000 before you are eligible to request a payout.

You will not be eligible to request a payout until your highest profit day represents less than 50% of your total profits for the payout period.
​

What Happens if I Violate the 50% Rule?
​

Will my account be terminated?
​

No. Violating the 50% consistency rule will not result in your account being terminated or breached.
​

You will simply be unable to request a payout until your highest profit trading day falls below 50% of your total profits.
​

What should I do next?
​

Continue trading and generating profits until your highest profit day represents less than 50% of your total profits. Once this happens, you will be eligible to request a payout again.
​

Please note: The 50% consistency rule applies to new Two Step Pro purchases made on or after 31st August 2026. Accounts purchased before this date will remain on the previous 25% consistency rule..

Leverage

The account leverage is the ratio of a trader’s capital to the size of positions they can control.

- Forex 1:100

- Indices : 1:20

- Commodities : 1:20

- Crypto : 1:2

Max Leverage is applied to all phases of the Evaluation.

Consequently, we use lower leverage to protect us from unforeseen losses as a distributor of large capital on a funded account.

- Forex: 1:50

- Indices : 1:10

- Commodities : 1:10

- Crypto : 1:2

Depending on the traders risk management we increase the leverage back to its Max.
