At FXRK, a Challenge account can be disqualified even if there are still open trades, if those positions cause the account to breach the Maximum Daily Loss or Maximum Total Loss limits.

Important clarification

The platform evaluates both:

• Closed losses

• Floating (unrealized) losses

These limits are monitored in real time.

If your equity falls below the allowed threshold at any moment, the account will be immediately disqualified, even if the trade is still open and later recovers.

How it works

The system does not wait for the trade to close.

If the combination of:

• Balance

• Open positions

• Floating losses

causes the account to exceed its loss limits, the violation is triggered automatically at that moment.

Practical example

Example for a One-Step Challenge account:

• Initial balance: 100,000 USD

• Maximum Daily Loss: 4%

• Maximum daily loss allowed: 4,000 USD

If you open a trade and it generates a floating loss of 4,300 USD, your equity will fall below the allowed daily threshold.

In that case:

• The account will be automatically disqualified

• It does not matter if the trade is still open

• It does not matter if the trade later recovers

Important note

The applicable loss limits depend on the account model:

One-Step

• Maximum Daily Loss: 4%

Two-Steps

• Maximum Daily Loss: 4%

Instant

• Maximum Daily Loss: 3%

The same principle also applies to the Maximum Total Loss / Max Drawdown rule.

How to avoid it

To reduce the risk of breaching this rule:

• Monitor floating losses throughout the day

• Use position sizing aligned with your account limits

• Apply disciplined risk management

• Avoid letting open trades get too close to the maximum loss limits

Final recommendation

Loss limit violations are triggered in real time and are not reversed, even if the trade later turns profitable.

Before trading, make sure you clearly understand the daily loss limit and the maximum total drawdown that apply to your account type.
