Profit Surge Cap
To promote consistent and responsible trading during evaluations, a Daily Profit Cap has been implemented:
Up to 40% of the total profit target for the 2 Step Plan (8% and 4% targets)
Up to 30% of the total profit target for the 1 Step Plan (10% target)
📌 Rule
A trader may not exceed the percentages below of their overall profit target in a single 24 hour period.
Two Step Plan
Phase 1: Max daily profit = 3.2% (40% of 8%)
Phase 2: Max daily profit = 1.6% (40% of 4%)
One Step Plan
One Step: Max daily profit = 3% (30% of 10%)
This rule helps ensure that traders demonstrate sustainable trading practices instead of relying on one high risk day followed by minimal or no trading activity.
❗ If a trader's account balance is below the starting amount, the profit cap rule will only apply once they return to breakeven or above.

🔍 Why This Rule?
This rule targets strategies where a trader hits the majority of the profit target early using aggressive tactics, then trades 0.01 lot sizes just to fulfill minimum day requirements.
We want to fund skilled and consistent traders, not gamblers.
