10-Four Funded Account Scaling Rules

P
Written by Pavlos Antoniou
Updated over a week ago

The 10-Four scaling system determines how many contracts you are allowed to trade based on the simulated profit in your funded account. As your account grows, your maximum tradable size increases. If profits decrease, available size may be reduced accordingly.

Scaling rules apply only to funded accounts. There is no scaling restriction during the evaluation phase.

Scaling levels are reviewed and updated at the end of each trading session, not in real time.

Important Notes on Scaling

  • Scaling adjustments are applied after the trading day closes

  • Contract limits do not update intraday

  • Attempting to bypass scaling limits is monitored

Accounts showing repeated behavior designed to avoid or manipulate scaling restrictions may be reviewed, adjusted, or restricted to preserve fair trading conditions.

The scaling framework is designed to reward steady performance while managing risk responsibly.
