How much is the profit split for Standard Evaluation?

With Elites Funding, you’ll get up to a 90% profit split.

You’ll get an 80% profit share initially. With scale-up, you’ll be eligible for a 90% profit share.

How do you calculate the Maximum Daily Loss?

This guideline, sometimes referred to as the “trader’s daily stop-loss,” is a fundamental aspect of our trading protocol. As per our regulations, this stop-loss is set at 5% of the initial account balance.

It dictates that at any given time during the day, the aggregate result of all closed trades along with the current unrealized profits or losses on open positions must not exceed the predetermined daily loss limit. This is computed using the following formula:

Current daily loss = Total outcome of completed trades for the day + Outcome of open positions.

For example, suppose the initial account balance is $100,000, and the maximum daily loss is capped at $5,000. If you incur losses of $4,000 from closed trades, your account should not decrease by more than $1,000 on that day. Additionally, the total of your open floating losses should not exceed -$1,000. It’s important to note that this limit incorporates commissions and swaps.

Conversely, if you earn $2,500 in profits in a single day, you can withstand losses of up to $7,500, but no more. It’s crucial to remember that your Maximum Daily Loss encompasses your open trades as well. For instance, if you realize losses of $3,000 from closed trades in a day and subsequently open a new trade resulting in a floating loss of -$2,850 before eventually turning positive, you’ve already breached the daily loss limit, as your equity momentarily stood at -$5,850, exceeding the permitted loss of $5,000.

Beware that the Maximum Daily Loss resets at midnight. For instance, if you earn a profit of $2,000 in one day and simultaneously hold an open position with a floating loss of $6,500, you’re within the daily loss limit for that day, with a current daily loss of $4,500 ($2,000 profit from closed trades – $6,500 from open position). However, if you retain this position with an open loss of $6,500 after midnight, you’ll breach the daily loss limit, as profits from the previous day do not carry over, and the $6,500 open loss exceeds the $5,000 maximum daily permitted loss.

How do you calculate the Maximum Overall Loss?

This principle, also known as the “account stop-loss,” mandates that the equity of the trading account should never drop below 90% of the initial account balance throughout the account’s duration. For instance, in the case of a Challenge with a starting balance of $100,000, this implies that the lowest possible equity of the account can be $90,000. Once again, this encompasses both closed and open positions (account equity, not balance), and the calculation logic mirrors that of the Maximum Daily Loss, albeit spanning the entire testing period rather than just a single day. This threshold includes commissions and swaps.

Allocating 10% of the initial account balance provides traders with ample room to demonstrate the suitability of their account for investment. It serves as a safety net, ensuring that traders remain active even in the face of initial losses. Importantly, this assurance extends to investors, who can trust that the trader’s account will never dip below 90% of its value under any circumstances.

What will happen If I break the 5% daily loss limit?

If a trader violates the daily drawdown rule, his account will be suspended.
