FundedElite: Single-instrument risk cap (widest-stop rule)

ForbiddenVoids accountHidden ruleVerifiedUpdated Jun 5, 2026

You may not risk more than 50% of your daily loss limit on a single instrument in one day (e.g., max 2.5% on a 5% daily limit). Risk is counted even on profitable trades; with no stop-loss, risk = the maximum adverse excursion; with a stop-loss, risk = the WIDEST stop you ever set during the trade's life.

The gotcha

Widening a stop mid-trade can retroactively breach this rule even if the trade closed in profit — risk is measured by your widest stop, not your final one.
