Elite ACCESS Intraday – Daily Loss Limit (DLL)
The Daily Loss Limit (DLL) defines the maximum amount your account can lose within a single trading day.
Evaluation Phase
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 in the challenge phase.
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 alongside the Intraday Trailing Drawdown for the funded accounts.
Daily Loss Limit by Account Size
Account Size | Daily Loss Limit ($) | Daily Loss Limit (%) |
$25,000 | $500 | 2.00% |
$50,000 | $1,000 | 2.00% |
$100,000 | $1,250 | 1.25% |
$150,000 | $1,750 | ~1.17% |
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 (account is paused until 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 at the end-of-day rollover.
The new daily 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 will be automatically closed.
The account becomes active again after the market rollover period.
Important Notes
The DLL applies only to funded accounts (the evaluation phase has no daily loss limit).
Funded accounts feature both a Daily Loss Limit and an Intraday Trailing Drawdown.
You must always account for floating drawdown, not just closed trades.
Summary
Evaluation: No Daily Loss Limit.
Funded: DLL applies and must be respected at all times.
Violation: Breaching the DLL results in a Soft Breach (account paused until rollover).
