New Dashboard Update: Softbreach, Suspensions, and Breach

What is a softbreach?

A softbreach is an automatic warning generated when a user violates certain operational rules.

It does not imply immediate disqualification or a breach, but it may trigger temporary suspensions or, if repeated, escalate into a breach.

Can a softbreach lead to a breach?

Yes.

The repetition of softbreaches may result in your account being considered in breach according to internal policies.

In other words, although a single softbreach is not a breach, the accumulation of several can affect your account status.


⚠️ News-related softbreach (funded accounts only)

When is a news softbreach generated?

It is generated when trading during restricted news events that are not allowed for funded accounts.

What happens if I accumulate news softbreaches?

If you only have 1 news softbreach and your trade reaches Take Profit or is manually closed in profit, the profit will be deducted from your earnings.

However, when requesting your payout, you WILL still be able to withdraw.

(Only the affected trade is deducted, not your total profits or your eligibility for payout.)


📏 Operational rule softbreaches

1️⃣ 2-minute Stop Loss rule

You must place a Stop Loss within the first two minutes after opening a trade.

If you do not, you will receive a warning.

  • In evaluation phase (Rapid, Classic and Ultra): only a warning.

  • In funded accounts (Rapid, Classic and Ultra): the first softbreach results in payout cancellation if the trade does not have a Stop Loss within 2 minutes. (The account remains active, but that payout cycle is canceled.)


2️⃣ Trading idea 50% daily drawdown risk rule

The trade must follow the trading idea risk rule of not exceeding 50% of the daily drawdown.

If this rule is violated, you will receive a warning:

  • In evaluation phase: only a warning.

  • In funded accounts: the first softbreach cancels the payout if it directly violates the 50% daily drawdown risk rule. This applies to Classic, Ultra and Rapid accounts. For Instant accounts, the rule is 1% risk per trading idea or failure to follow trading idea criteria. (The account remains active, but the payout cycle is canceled.)

If a trader repeatedly violates this rule, the account may enter breach. If the rule is violated in subsequent payout cycles, the account will also enter breach.
