There are no lot size restrictions and no maximum lots on any of the challenge accounts. The maximum lot exposure rule is hard enforced on Simulated Funded Accounts only. The maximum lot exposure is the total combined lot/position size allowed at any one time on the account.
In short: Challenge stages have no lot size restrictions. On Funded stages, the maximum lot exposure below is hard enforced: if your total open lots exceed the limit, all open trades are closed (soft breach).
Stage | Lot size restriction |
Challenge (all phases) | None, no maximum lots |
Simulated Funded | Maximum lot exposure per account size, hard enforced |

$100k | 20 lots |
$200k | 20 lots |

Why do we have this rule?
This rule is in place to encourage and promote consistent trading behavior. By limiting lot exposure, we help minimize risky, toxic, and "YOLO" trading strategies. Our mission is to support traders in becoming long-term, consistent, and professional in their trading approach.
