Not using a stop loss is treated as a soft breach. Your account won’t be closed, but the system will automatically exit the trade after 1 minute if no stop loss has been set.
This rule doesn't apply when buying the add-on at the check-out (+10%)
1-Step Max: maximum 1% combined open risk per symbol, not across the entire account. Positions on different symbols have separate 1% limits. During evaluation, symbol-risk, missing-stop-loss and maximum-position-risk violations share one counter: warnings on strikes 1 and 2; hard breach on strike 3. On funded accounts, the first violation is a hard breach. The purchased no-stop-loss add-on exception still applies.
Allowed between Lark Simulated Funded Accounts. Not allowed between Evaluation Accounts
