Nordic Funder: Daily loss limit (17:00 EST anchor)
▶Nordic Funder Daily Loss Reset: 17:00 EST Is Your Real Deadline — 46s explainer, decoded by FundedWiki
Triggered when equity or balance falls below a % of the previous end-of-day balance: 5% on the current PRO products (the legacy rules page shows 4% One-Stage / 3% Two-Stage). The daily limit is adjusted at 17:00 EST.
The gotcha
The daily budget recalculates on the US close (17:00 EST), not at midnight or GMT.
What happens if you break it
Breaching this voids the account outright — the evaluation or funded account is terminated and any unrealised profit is forfeited. It's the most severe class of breach.
