TL;DR: The maximum loss limit (MLL) at FundedNext Futures is the total loss allowed before an account is permanently breached. It follows a trailing end-of-day (EOD) system, updating once per day based on the highest balance reached, moving up with profits but never decreasing with losses. Once the MLL reaches the initial account balance, it locks and no longer increases (For Bolt, Flex and Rapid Pro and Daily It locks at initial balance + $100). If equity falls below the MLL at any time, the account is breached.
The maximum loss limit is the total amount a trader can lose in their Futures Challenge or FundedNext Account before their account is restricted from further trading. The maximum loss limit (MLL) follows a trailing end-of-day (EOD) system. This means it updates once per day, based on the highest balance your account reached that day. It doesn't change in real-time but adjusts at the end of each trading day.
Note: For Bolt, Flex and Rapid Pro and Daily the maximum loss limit stops trailing at Initial balance + $100.
How does the maximum loss limit work?
Sets the minimum equity a trader can have before the account is hard breached.
Moves up when the account balance increases until it goes to the initial balance, but never moves down when losses occur.
Updates only at the end of the trading day (EOD), not in real time.
Maximum Loss Limits by Account Size
Account Size | Rapid | Legacy | Bolt | Flex | Rapid Pro and Daily |
$25K Account | $1,000 | $1,000 | - | - | $1,000 |
$50K Account | $2,000 | $2,000 | $2,000 | $1,500 | $2,000 |
$100K Account | $2,500 | $3,000 | - | $2,500 | $2,500 |
$150K Account | - | - | - | $4,000 | - |
Example: How does the maximum loss limit adjust over time?
A trader starts with a $100K Legacy Challenge and a maximum loss limit of $3,000. This means the account balance cannot fall below $97,000.
Day 1:
The trader starts with a $100,000 balance. They make a profit of $1,000, bringing their balance to $101,000.
At the end of the day, the maximum loss limit is calculated:
$101,000 - $3,000 = $98,000.
The maximum loss limit is now $98,000.
Day 2:
The trader earns another $2,000, bringing their balance to $103,000.
At the end of the day, the maximum loss limit is recalculated:
$103,000 - $3,000 = $100,000.
Since the maximum loss limit has reached the initial balance of $100,000, it locks here and will not increase any further.
Day 3:
The trader's balance drops by $2,000 to $101,000. However, the maximum loss limit remains at $100,000 and does not decrease.
Day 4:
The trader's balance increases by $5,000, reaching $106,000.
At the end of the day, the maximum loss limit stays locked at $100,000. Despite the increased balance, the maximum loss limit won’t increase further beyond the initial balance.
If the trader's balance drops below $100,000 at any point, the account will be permanently breached.
The maximum loss limit adjusts based on the highest balance at the end of each trading day. However, once your profit increases enough that the maximum loss limit reaches the initial account balance, it locks at that level and does not move further.
Note:
After the withdrawal of your first Performance Reward, your maximum loss limit will be set to your initial account balance. For example, if your account size is $50,000, after the withdrawal of the Performance Reward, the maximum loss limit will also reset to $50,000.
For FundedNext Futures Bolt Account the maximum loss limit will stop trailing once it reaches $50,100.
For FundedNext Futures Flex Account the maximum loss limit will stop trailing once it reaches $50,100 ($50K), $100,100 ($100K) and $150,100 ($150K).
For FundedNext Futures Rapid Pro and Daily Account the maximum loss limit will stop trailing once it reaches $25,100 ($25K), $50,100 ($50K) and $100,100 ($100K).
Key Takeaways:
Trailing EOD system: The maximum loss limit moves up with profits and locks at the initial balance. It will not decrease with any losses.
Hard breach: If a trader's balance reaches the maximum loss limit, the account is permanently breached.
Updated at the end of the trading day: The maximum loss limit adjusts only at the end of each trading day based on the highest balance reached. It does not change in real time. However, if your floating loss reaches the maximum loss limit during an active trade, your account will be instantly breached.
When the account reaches a profit equivalent to the maximum loss limit, the maximum loss limit locks in to the initial balance.
Tip: To manage your maximum loss limit effectively, track your account balance daily, use proper risk management, and plan trades carefully to ensure growth while staying within limits.
Note: Effective 10 July 2026, Rapid and Bolt accounts will no longer be available for new purchases or account resets.
