The rule that ends most FundingPips accounts
Traders rarely fail because their strategy stopped working. They fail because of the 4% daily loss being tighter than the industry norm. A journal makes that visible before it happens: log every trade the same day, watch the daily P&L calendar, and stop when the remaining buffer is smaller than one normal losing trade.
What the rules mean in dollars on a $100,000 account
- Daily loss of 4% is $4,000. Three losing trades at 1% risk leave you $1,000 of room for the rest of the session.
- Maximum drawdown of 8% is $8,000 — the total you can be down from the reference balance before the account is closed.
- The 8% profit target is $8,000. At 1% risk per trade and a 1:2 payoff, that is roughly 8 net winning R.
- The day that fails most accounts: a $4,000 red day taken after you are already $4,000 down. Both rules break on the same trade, which is why the calendar buffer matters more than any single setup.
Scale linearly for other account sizes — a $50,000 account halves every figure above.
Importing from your FundingPips platform
Each platform exports a different file. These pages show exactly where the export lives and which columns TradeStack reads:
How to track a FundingPips evaluation day by day
- Create a portfolio for the account and set its size, so percentages are calculated correctly.
- Export from your platform after each session and import the file — the format is auto-detected.
- Read the calendar: each day shows its dollar result against your daily loss limit.
- Check Consistency % weekly, since payouts are refused on one-big-day profit curves.
- Tag setups with playbooks so you can drop the ones that only work on paper.
