FunderPro: Risk & margin limits
Challenge accounts have no max-margin rule. Funded accounts cap margin at 20% per asset class. On Instant Funded, using 80%+ of account margin, or risking more than 2% on a single trade, is a violation.
The gotcha
Instant Funded is the strict one: the 2%-per-trade and 80% margin ceilings catch traders who size up like they did in the challenge. Scale your risk down once you're on Instant.
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.
