How Does the Maximum Daily Drawdown Limit for the 1-Step Nitro Static Account Work?

The Maximum Daily Drawdown Limit is 3% of the Initial Balance. Example 1: For a $100,000 1-Step Nitro Static Account, the Daily Drawdown is 3% of the Initial Balance. Day 1: Starting Balance/Equity: $100,000 Allowed Daily Drawdown: 3% of $100,000 = $3,000 (stop-out limit = $97,000) Example 2: Day 2: End of Day Balance (Day 1): $104,000 End of Day Equity (Day 1): $103,000 At 5 PM EST, if unrealised positions are open, then 3% of Initial Balance will be deducted from the higher of the two. In Example 2 above, since Balance is higher than Equity, the stop-out limit will become: $104,000 – (3% of $100,000) = $104,000 – $3,000 = $101,000 If either Equity or Balance reaches this limit, it would result in a breach of the Daily Drawdown Limit. Example 3: Day 3: End of Day Balance (Day 2): $101,000 End of Day Equity (Day 2): $106,000 In Example 3 above, since Equity is higher than Balance, the stop-out limit will become: $106,000 – (3% of $100,000) = $106,000 – $3,000 = $103,000 Since the Balance of $101,000 is lower than the limit of $103,000, this will cause an immediate breach of the Daily Drawdown Limit.

Is there a maximum floating loss rule on Instant Plus accounts?

The Instant Plus Account offers an 80/20 profit split, which is maintained only if traders follow the Shield Risk Protocol. This rule limits floating equity loss (i.e., unrealized losses from open positions) to 1% of the account balance at all times. For instance: $100,000 account → max floating loss: $1,000 $50,000 account → max floating loss: $500. If floating loss exceeds this limit, all positions auto-close and the profit split is reduced. Profit Split Reductions: Violation penalties stack progressively: 1st → 50/50 2nd → 40/60 3rd → 30/70 4th → permanently 20/80. Examples: Staying compliant: A position floating –$500 on a $100K account is fine (below $1,000). First breach: If floating loss hits –$1,700 (above $1,000), the trade closes and the split drops to 50/50. Multiple breaches: 1st = 50/50 → 2nd = 40/60 → 3rd = 30/70 → 4th = locked at 20/80. Why It Matters: The Shield rule enforces disciplined risk management, prevents deep drawdowns, protects capital, and preserves access to the highest performance reward structure. Note: The Floating Loss Limit is monitored in real time by the Company’s systems. In cases where a trade is closed above the floating loss limit, including but not limited to situations caused by: - System detection or processing delays, - Market slippage at the time of closure, or - The trade being closed immediately before the system registers a breach of the floating loss limit, The profit split reduction model will be applied in accordance with the Floating Limit rules.

Example 2: Day 2: End of Day Balance (Day 1): $104,000 End of Day Equity (Day 1): $103,000 At 5 PM EST, if unrealised positions are open, then 3% of Initial balance will be deducted from the higher of the two. In Example 2 above since balance is higher than Equity, the stop out limit will become ($104,000 – (3% of 100,000)) = $104,000 – $3,000 = $101,000. If either Equity or Balance reaches this limit, it would result in a breach of the Daily Drawdown Limit. Example 3: Day 3: End of Day Balance (Day 2): $101,000 End of Day Equity (Day 2): $106,000 In Example 3 above, since Equity is higher than Balance, the stop-out limit will become: $106,000 – (3% of $100,000) = $106,000 – $3,000 = $103,000.

How does the overall drawdown limit for the Instant Standard account work?

The Overall Drawdown Limit for the Instant Funding Account is 5%. Key Points to Understand: Trailing Overall Drawdown: The Overall Drawdown is calculated based on your account’s Highest Balance (Maximum Balance Watermark) and does not reset daily at 5 PM EST. It consistently remains at 5% of the INITIAL BALANCE from the peak balance. Example 1: Start of Day 1: Starting Balance/Equity: $100,000 Initial Overall Drawdown: 5% of $100,000, which means the stop-out limit is set at $95,000. If Either Equity or Balance reaches this limit, it would result in a breach of the Overall Drawdown Limit. During Day 1: New Balance: $103,000 Overall Drawdown: $103,000 - $5,000 = $98,000. If Either Equity or Balance reaches this limit, it would result in a breach of the Overall Drawdown Limit. Day 2: Starting Balance/Equity: $101,000 Allowed Overall Drawdown: The stop-out limit remains at $98,000 as it is based on the highest balance of $103,000. If Either Equity or Balance reaches this limit, it would result in a breach of the Overall Drawdown Limit.

How does the maximum daily drawdown limit for the Instant Standard account work?

The Instant Funding Account has a fixed Daily Drawdown Limit of 3%, based on the initial balance. Example 1: Account Size: $100,000 Daily Drawdown Limit: $3,000 Day 1: Starting Balance/Equity: $100,000 Daily Drawdown: $3,000 Stop-Out Limit: $97,000 ($100,000 – $3,000). Day 2: Starting Balance/Equity: $106,000 Daily Drawdown: $3,000 Stop-Out Limit: $103,000. Example 2: End of Day 1 Balance: $105,000 End of Day 1 Equity: $103,000 Daily Drawdown Limit: $3,000 At 5 PM EST, if unrealised positions are open, then 3% of Initial balance will be deducted from the higher of the two. In Example 2 above since balance is higher than Equity, the stop out limit will become ($105,000 – (3% of 100,000)) = $105,000 – $3,000 = $102,000. If Either Balance Or Equity reaches the limit of $102,000, it would breach the Daily Drawdown Limit (In example 2 above, a further $1,000 loss in Equity would breach the Limit). Example 3: Day 3: End of Day Balance (Day 2): $101,000 End of Day Equity (Day 2): $106,000 In Example 3 above, since Equity is higher than Balance, the stop-out limit will become: $106,000 – (3% of $100,000) = $106,000 – $3,000 = $103,000. Since the Balance of $101,000 is lower than the limit of $103,000, this will cause an immediate breach of the Daily Drawdown Limit.

Is there a profit split add-on for 2-Step Plus?

Yes, there is a 90% Profit Split Add-On available for 2-Step Plus accounts. Cost: $0 extra fee. What the Add-On Changes: Selecting the add-on upgrades your starting reward split from 70/30 → 90/10, but it also activates an additional condition during the Evaluation phase: - The Shield Risk Protocol will apply during Evaluation, not just on Funded. - First violation of the protocol: is a soft breach i.e., evaluation continues - Second violation of the protocol: becomes a hard breach (evaluation failed). This keeps the add-on aligned with the same disciplined risk standards expected on funded 2-Step Plus accounts. Why This Add-On Has This Rule: The Shield Risk Protocol already exists on 2-Step Plus funded accounts. Extending it to evaluation ensures that traders who want a 90% split are already capable of managing their trading exposure consistently right from their evaluation phases.

Is there a maximum floating loss rule on 2-Step Plus accounts?

The 2-Step Plus Account offers a 70/30 profit split, which is maintained only if traders follow the Shield Risk Protocol. This rule limits floating equity loss (i.e., unrealized losses from open positions) to 1% of the account balance at all times. For instance: $100,000 account → max floating loss: $1,000 $50,000 account → max floating loss: $500. If floating loss exceeds this limit, all positions auto-close and the profit split is reduced. Profit Split Reductions: Violation penalties stack progressively: 1st → 50/50 2nd → 40/60 3rd → 30/70 4th → permanently 20/80. Examples: Staying compliant: A position floating –$500 on a $100K account is fine (below $1,000). First breach: If floating loss hits –$1,700 (above $1,000), the trade closes and the split drops to 50/50. Multiple breaches: 1st = 50/50 → 2nd = 40/60 → 3rd = 30/70 → 4th = locked at 20/80. Why It Matters: The Shield rule enforces disciplined risk management, prevents deep drawdowns, protects capital, and preserves access to the highest performance reward structure. Note: The Floating Loss Limit is monitored in real time by the Company’s systems. In cases where a trade is closed above the floating loss limit, including but not limited to situations caused by: - System detection or processing delays, - Market slippage at the time of closure, or - The trade being closed immediately before the system registers a breach of the floating loss limit, The profit split reduction model will be applied in accordance with the Floating Limit rules.

What is the maximum allocation for 2-Step Plus accounts?

The maximum allocation per member is $300,000 for 2-Step Plus Accounts.

What is the profit-split offered in the 2-Step Plus account?

The 2-Step Plus Account starts with a 70/30 profit split (70% to the trader, 30% to the firm). To maintain this split, traders must follow the Shield Risk Protocol, which is designed to promote disciplined risk management. These rules ensure long-term sustainability for both the trader and the firm, while rewarding disciplined trading with the maximum performance reward structure.

Is there a rule regarding consistency for 2-Step Plus accounts?

For 2-Step Plus accounts, there’s no consistency rule in the Evaluation Phase and Funded Phase.

What is the profit target for 2-Step Plus?

The Profit Targets for the 2-Step Plus are structured as follows: Phase 1 Profit Target: 8% Phase 2 Profit Target: 5% Example: For an account size of $100,000: Phase 1: The profit target is $8,000, which is 8% of $100,000. Phase 2: The profit target is $5,000, which is 5% of $100,000.

How does the overall drawdown limit for the 2-Step Plus Account work?

The Overall Drawdown Limit for 2-Step Plus is 10% and remains fixed to the initial balance throughout the account. Example: Account Size: $100,000 Overall Drawdown Limit: 10% Day 1: Starting Balance/Equity: $100,000 Overall Drawdown: $10,000 Stop-Out Limit: $90,000 ($100,000 – $10,000). Day 2: Starting Balance/Equity: $104,000 Overall Drawdown: $10,000 Stop-Out Limit: $90,000 ($100,000 – $10,000).

How does the maximum daily drawdown limit for the 2-Step Plus account work?

The Maximum Daily Drawdown Limit is 4% of the Initial Balance. Example 1: For a $100,000 2-Step Plus Account, the Daily Drawdown is 4% of the Initial Balance. Day 1: Starting Balance/Equity: $100,000 Allowed Daily Drawdown: 4% of $100,000 = $4,000 (stop-out limit = $96,000). Example 2: Day 2: End of Day Balance (Day 1): $104,000 End of Day Equity (Day 1): $103,000 At 5 PM EST, if unrealised positions are open, then 4% of Initial Balance will be deducted from the higher of the two. In Example 2 above, since Balance is higher than Equity, the stop-out limit will become: $104,000 – (4% of $100,000) = $104,000 – $4,000 = $100,000. If either Equity or Balance reaches this limit, it would result in a breach of the Daily Drawdown Limit. Example 3: Day 3: End of Day Balance (Day 2): $101,000 End of Day Equity (Day 2): $106,000 In Example 3 above, since Equity is higher than Balance, the stop-out limit will become: $106,000 – (4% of $100,000) = $106,000 – $4,000 = $102,000. Since the Balance of $101,000 is lower than the limit of $102,000, this will cause an immediate breach of the Daily Drawdown Limit.

How does the overall drawdown limit for the 2-Step Prime account work?

The Overall Drawdown Limit for 2-Step Prime is 6% and remains fixed to the initial balance throughout the account. Example: Account Size: $100,000 Overall Drawdown Limit: 6% Day 1: Starting Balance/Equity: $100,000 Overall Drawdown: $6,000 Stop-Out Limit: $94,000 ($100,000 - $6,000) Day 2: Starting Balance/Equity: $104,000 Overall Drawdown: $6,000 Stop-Out Limit: $94,000 ($100,000 - $6,000).
