Is there a margin rule or max lot size during the Challenge?

No — during the Challenge phase we do not enforce a strict margin cap or max lot size. This allows you to trade your strategy with full flexibility, while still showing the responsible risk management expected from a professional trader.


Things to Consider 🚦

To keep your trading approach disciplined, we expect reasonable consistency in your lot sizes relative to your strategy and account balance. Avoid sudden or unjustified changes in lot size.

Examples of flagged behavior include:

  • Trading 1 lot, then suddenly jumping to 10 lots without a clear plan.

  • Consistently trading an average of 1 lot, but then placing a 0.01 lot trade just to reach your minimum trading days.

Such actions may be flagged as reckless or gambling behavior.

Remember to always:

  • Show consistent and responsible trading behavior.

  • Avoid going “all-in” just because limits are removed.

The way you trade in the Challenge often predicts your funded performance.

⚠️ Note on Margin & Lot Sizes

During the Challenge phase, there’s no strict margin cap or maximum lot size enforced. However, on Funded Accounts these rules do apply — so make sure to plan ahead and calculate properly.
