The daily loss limit (DLL)

A session timeout, not a breach — and which accounts carry one.

Updated 2026-07-06

The DLL caps how much a single session can cost you. Hit it and the account locks until the next trading day. That is the entire consequence: a timeout, not a breach, no fee, nothing to reinstate.

Who has one

AccountPro / Direct DLLFlex DLL
25KNoneNone
50K$1,200None
100K$1,800None
150K$2,700None

The 25K carries no DLL on any path — at that size the max loss limit already does the job. Flex never has one at any size; its only risk rule is the EOD trailing floor.

How it's measured

The DLL tracks realized plus open loss against the session's starting balance. If the combined figure reaches the limit, open positions are flattened and new orders are rejected until the next session. Your trailing floor is unaffected — a DLL day does not move it.

Good to know

Treat the DLL as a free circuit breaker. The traders who fund fastest are usually the ones who never meet it.
