What is the Maximum Daily Loss Limit?

Updated over a month ago

For Evaluation, Express, and Stellar 2-Step:

Traders are allowed to lose 5% of their initial account balance on any given day as their Daily Loss. If your initial account balance is $100,000, then 5% of the amount is $5000. This means that your Daily Loss Limit will remain unchanged whether you make a profit or incur a loss. At any point in a day, if the (running + closed) loss exceeds $5000 it will be considered a Daily Loss rule violation.

For Stellar 1-Step:

Traders are allowed to lose 3% of their initial account balance on any given day as their Daily Loss in the Stellar 1-Step account. If your initial account balance is $100,000, then 3% of the amount is $3000. This means that your Daily Loss Limit will remain unchanged whether you make a profit or incur a loss. At any point during the day, if your total running and closed losses exceed $5,000, it will be considered a violation of the Daily Loss Limit.

For Stellar Lite:

In the Stellar Lite Account, traders are permitted to lose up to 4% of their initial account balance as their Daily Loss Limit. For instance, with an initial balance of $100,000, this equates to $4000. This means that your Daily Loss Limit will remain unchanged whether you make a profit or incur a loss. At any point during the day, if your total running and closed losses exceed this, it will be considered a violation of the Daily Loss Limit.
