For funded traders

Their rules fail you.
Yours protect you.

Most challenges are not failed by bad strategies — they are failed by rule breaches on day eight. Mirror the firm's rules one notch stricter, and breaching theirs becomes mechanically impossible.

The margin between your line and theirs is the whole trick.

01

Read their rules

Daily loss, total drawdown, consistency, weekend and news restrictions — write down the exact numbers your firm enforces.

02

Set yours inside them

Mirror every firm rule in RedLine, one notch stricter. They allow 5% daily loss? You cap at 4%. They require 40% consistency? You set 35%.

03

Let yours fire first

When your line trips, you are stopped, flat, or locked out — while the firm’s limit is still intact. Breaching their rule now requires getting past yours first.

Rule by rule

Every firm rule has a RedLine answer.

Daily loss limit

One tilted afternoon ends a $200K account.

Max Floating Loss + Trailing Drawdown, set inside the firm limit

Max total drawdown

The floor creeps up while you stop watching it.

Trailing Drawdown Monitor, tracking balance or equity

Consistency requirement

One monster day disqualifies the whole challenge.

Consistency Rule with your firm’s exact percentage

No weekend positions

A Friday "runner" gaps through your stop on Sunday.

No Weekend Holding, cut before the firm’s deadline

News trading restrictions

Two minutes around NFP undoes two weeks of work.

News Blackout, high-impact, before and after the print

Lot size limits

Sizing up after losses is how margins get called.

Max Margin Usage + Max Loss Per Trade

IS THIS ALLOWED?

Yes. Firms restrict what trades you place, not what risk tools you use. Their limits exist for the same reason yours should — they want traders who survive. Check your firm's current terms, then set your lines inside theirs.
