Daily loss limit — explain simplyDaily loss limit The most an account may lose within one trading day. Breaching it usually fails the account or ends trading for the day.Example: $100,000 starting balance, 5% daily limit: a $5,000 loss in one day (often including open losses) breaches it.Watch out: Firms differ on whether it is measured from the day's starting balance or equity, and when the day resets.More plain-language terms

Max drawdown — explain simplyDrawdown How far an account has fallen from a previous high point.

Read the exact rule.More plain-language terms
