Finotive Funding: Notional Volume limit (payout-cutting strikes)
▶Finotive Funding Volume Cap: The Strike That Kills Your Payout — 42s explainer, decoded by FundedWiki
A tiered cap on total notional exposure (≈5,000% of balance for $2.5k accounts down to ≈1,000% for $200k). Exceeding it on a FUNDED account issues a 'strike', and each strike cuts your NEXT payout to 10% (a 90% haircut) — it doesn't void the account.
The gotcha
This is the biggest sleeper trap: oversizing doesn't fail you, it quietly guts your payout by 90%.
What happens if you break it
Breaching this doesn't necessarily close the account, but it can disqualify the payout you were trading toward — you keep trading, the profit doesn't get paid.
The numbers
| capRange | 1,000%-5,000% of balance |
| strikePenalty | next payout cut to 10% |
