1-Step Pro – Maximum Loss Rule (Static 6%)
The Maximum Loss Rule in the 1-Step Pro account is designed to enforce disciplined risk management and capital preservation. This account features a static 6% drawdown, meaning the maximum loss is locked from the start and does not adjust with profits.
What does this mean?
Your account must never fall below 94% of the initial balance. If your equity, including all open trades, swaps, and commissions, drops below this level, it triggers a hard breach, and the account is immediately closed.
How is it calculated?
Maximum Loss: 6% of the initial balance
Stop-Out Level:
Initial Balance - 6%
This stop-out level remains fixed throughout the evaluation and funded phase.
Examples:
$50K Account:
Max Loss: 6% of $50,000 = $3,000
Stop-Out Level: $47,000
$100K Account:
Max Loss: 6% of $100,000 = $6,000
Stop-Out Level: $94,000
$25K Account:
Max Loss: 6% of $25,000 = $1,500
Stop-Out Level: $23,500
Key Notes:
The stop-out level includes closed PnL, floating PnL, commissions, and swap fees.
This fixed rule simplifies risk tracking and supports strategic, consistent trading.
