1-Step Flash Maximum Daily Profit Rule (Funded Accounts)

The Maximum Daily Profit Rule applies only to funded 1-Step Flash accounts. This rule is designed as a risk management measure to promote consistent trading and prevent excessive gains from occurring within a single trading day.

Unlike some other rules, this does not cause a breach. Instead, once the daily profit threshold is reached, the account will be paused for the remainder of the trading day.


Daily Profit Limit

Account Stage

Maximum Profit Per Day

Challenge

No limit

Funded

3% per trading day

The 3% daily profit cap is calculated based on the starting balance of the funded account.


How the Daily Profit Limit Works

The rule operates as follows:

• The maximum daily profit is 3% of the funded starting balance
• Profit is measured per trading day
• The trading day resets at 5:00 PM EST
Closed profits are used to calculate daily profit
• Once the 3% threshold is reached, the account will automatically stop trading for the remainder of the trading day


What Happens When the Limit Is Reached

When a funded 1-Step Flash account reaches the daily profit limit:

All open trades will automatically be closed
The account will be temporarily paused for the remainder of the trading day
Any profit above the 3% daily limit is considered invalid and will be voided
The account will automatically resume trading at the start of the next trading day

This rule does not count as a soft breach or hard breach.


Example

A trader has a $50,000 funded 1-Step Flash account.

3% daily profit limit = $1,500

If the trader closes profits totaling $1,750 in one trading day:

• The account reaches the $1,500 daily profit threshold
All open trades are automatically closed
$250 in profits above the limit will be voided
• The account will be paused for the remainder of the trading day

Trading will automatically resume at the next daily reset at 5:00 PM EST.


Important Notes

• The daily profit rule only applies to funded 1-Step Flash accounts
• There is no daily profit limit during the challenge phase
• The rule pauses trading for the day rather than triggering a breach
• The limit is calculated from the starting funded balance
• The rule is measured per trading day, not per individual trade
Profits above the 3% daily cap are invalid and will be removed
