Maximum Lot Rule: Full list here

Maximum risk per trade idea — funded accounts

• General limit: 50% of the account's starting daily drawdown.
• Instant Funding: 3% of the starting balance.
• Instant Funding GO and One-Phase Crypto: 2%.
• IF Micro, IF Micro Crypto and IF1: 1%.
• Two-Phase Micro: 2% on accounts up to $50,000 and 1.5% on accounts of $100,000 or more.

Clarity accounts (IF Micro Clarity, One-Phase Clarity)

• No maximum-risk-per-position rule. Instead, a circuit breaker closes all positions if unrealised losses exceed 1.5% (IF Micro Clarity) or 2% (One-Phase Clarity) of the starting balance. The first breach reduces the profit split to 50%; the second closes the account.

IF Micro Lite

• Floating losses exceeding 1% of starting balance close all positions and trigger a strike. Account Drawdown and news-window violations share one strike pool: first strike reduces profit split to 50%; second closes the account.

Only between accounts held by the same person, including external accounts. EAs and external copiers are allowed; each account must comply individually.

Unrestricted in evaluation. In funded, no opening or closing from 5 minutes before until 5 minutes after high-impact news and FOMC events. The News Trading add-on removes this window. Without it, affected trade profits are removed.

Blocks market orders, pending limit orders, and TP/SL triggers on affected instruments:

• Funded accounts: 4 min before + 4 min after news (8 min total).

Warning system (funded accounts: One-Phase, Two-Phase, Instant Funding, Instant Funding GO)

• Up to 2 warnings with profit deductions for trades made inside the restriction window.
• 3rd violation = account breach.
• Profit deductions don't affect daily drawdown, but overall drawdown adjustments still apply.

IF Micro Lite

• Trading on affected instruments is prohibited within 4 minutes before and after major news. Violations count toward the shared strike pool described under maximum risk.

Account closure after 30 days without trades, in both evaluation and funded.

60 days

Checked only at payout: Instant and Pay After Pass, 15%; 1-Step and 2-Step, 30%. Each day counts at its highest net profit reached during the day, even if it closes at a loss. Trading may continue until the ratio is met.
