Prop firm loss limits: understand the precise rule before sizing.
Daily and maximum loss rules can use different balance, equity and reset definitions. Document the actual provider conditions, calculate the theoretical headroom and test multiple simultaneous exposures.
Identify the policy
Write down provider, model, loss basis, reset timezone and static or trailing threshold before running calculations.
Calculate total exposure
Consider correlated positions, floating P/L, pending orders and possible slippage rather than only one position size.
Keep limitations visible
These scenarios do not guarantee prop-firm rule compliance, evaluations, payouts or future profit.
