Funded account rules
Atlas Protector
A safety net on funded accounts. If open losses reach 2% of your starting balance, every position is closed. The second time, the account is breached.
Atlas Protector watches the open losses on a funded account. It is the rule that stops one bad position from taking the whole account.
Trigger
Open loss ≥ 2% of the account's initial balance
Open loss is the larger of: the account's net floating loss (equity minus balance), or the total of every losing open position. So a hedge or a winning trade elsewhere does not hide a large loser.
| What happens | |
|---|---|
| 1st trigger | Every open position is closed. Your profit split drops to 50% for the life of the account. You can keep trading straight away. |
| 2nd trigger | Every open position is closed and the account is breached. |
| Trigger level | $2,000 of open loss |
| EURUSD open at −$1,300 and XAUUSD open at −$800, US500 open at +$400 | |
| Net floating: −$1,700. Losing positions: −$2,100 | triggered (the larger counts) |
Good to know
- Funded accounts only. Evaluations are not affected.
- One episode counts once. After a trigger, the rule re-arms only once your open losses are back under 2%. The same drawdown cannot trigger twice.
- Measured against the initial balance, not your current balance or your high.
- The split cut is permanent for that account, including if you bought the 100% Profit Split add-on.
- Closed trades never count. Only positions that are still open.
Stay well clear
Use a stop loss so that the combined risk of everything you have open is below 2% of your starting balance. On a $50,000 account, that is $1,000 across all open positions.
