Max-Position-Loss

Written by Theo T.

Why does this rule exist?

The Max Position Loss rule ensures that your risk per market is strictly limited.

Your maximum risk per market:

  • Challenge: 1% of account balance

  • Funding & Instant Funding: 0.5% of starting balance

Example (Evaluation)

Account: $50,000 → 1% risk = $500

Example (Funding)

Account: $50,000 → 0.5% risk = $250

What happens in case of a rule violation?

A violation results in a soft breach:

  • The position is automatically closed

  • The account remains active

  • Trading can continue immediately

After the 3rd violation, a hard breach occurs and the account is closed.

Purpose of this rule

  • Prevents excessive concentration in a single asset

  • Avoids hidden over-leverage through multiple orders

  • Encourages clean and professional risk management

  • Reflects realistic trading conditions in live markets
