Daily and Overall Risk on Instant

4% daily, 8% overall — the tighter ceiling that comes with skipping the evaluation phases.

01

The two numbers that govern the account

  1. 1

    Daily loss — 4%

    Equity can't close a trading day more than this below that day's starting equity. It resets at the start of each new trading day.

  2. 2

    Max drawdown — 8%

    Equity can never sit more than this below your starting balance, checked continuously — not only at day close.

Both limits apply from the moment credentials are delivered. There's no warm-up window, no reduced-risk grace period, and no separate 'evaluation' version of these numbers to compare against.

02

Why the ceiling is tighter here

Instant Evaluation's 8% ceiling sits below the 10% used on 2-Step and 1-Step. The evaluation phases on those tracks act as a screening step before capital responsibility increases; Instant removes that step, so the account itself carries a narrower band from day one.
