The daily loss limit is 2% of your cash balance at the start of each trading day.
At the start of the trading day, at 23:00 London time, your cash balance is set as the daily starting point. Your account equity, including unrealised P&L from all open positions, is then monitored against that level throughout the day.
If your equity falls more than 2% below the daily starting point, the limit is breached.
The daily loss limit does not trail profits. If your account moves into profit, the 2% threshold remains fixed at the original daily starting point. Profitable open positions therefore provide additional headroom, while losing open positions reduce the amount of room remaining.
For example, on a $100,000 account:
If your equity falls below the daily loss threshold at any point, the attempt ends. You can reset at no cost and start a new attempt.
