Elite ACCESS – Daily Loss Limit (DLL)

The Daily Loss Limit (DLL) defines the maximum amount your account can lose within a single trading day.


Evaluation Phase (Challenge)

There is no Daily Loss Limit during the evaluation phase.

What This Means

  • You are not restricted by a daily loss limit

  • Your only risk limit is the EOD Trailing Drawdown

  • You can trade freely within the overall drawdown rules


Funded Phase (soft breach)

Once funded, a Daily Loss Limit applies and must be respected at all times.

How the Daily Loss Limit Works

  • The DLL is calculated based on your starting balance for the day

  • It represents the maximum loss allowed within that trading day

  • If the limit is reached or exceeded, it is considered a soft breach (pause till eod)


What Counts Toward the DLL

The following are included:

  • Closed losses

  • Open (floating) losses

  • Commissions and fees


Daily Reset

  • The Daily Loss Limit resets once per day

  • The new limit is based on your updated account balance


Rule Violations

If the Daily Loss Limit is breached:

  • The account will be paused for the rest of the day.

  • Open positions may be closed

  • The account becomes active again after the rollover period


Important Notes

  • The DLL applies only to funded accounts

  • There is no daily restriction during evaluation

  • You must always account for floating drawdown, not just closed trades


Summary

  • No DLL during evaluation

  • DLL applies only when funded

  • Must stay within daily loss limits at all times

  • Breaching the DLL results in a Soft breach
