Trading rules
Exact percentages come from the plan you buy; the values below are the defaults applied to every Deskline Capital evaluation.
Phase 2 — Verification
- Balance resets to the Phase 1 closing equity, which becomes the new baseline.
- Reach a 5% profit target with the same risk limits.
- Trade on at least 4 separate days.
Risk limits
- Max daily loss: 5% of the phase starting balance, measured on equity including open positions.
- Max overall loss: 10% of the phase starting balance.
- Breaching either limit ends the challenge immediately and is logged with the exact figures.
- Limits are evaluated server-side on every account sync — not on the honour system.
