What is the Daily Loss Limit in Winbance?

Updated this week

The Daily Loss Limit is the maximum amount you are allowed to lose in a single trading day. If this limit is reached, you must stop trading for the rest of the day and wait until the next day to resume.

Exceeding the daily loss limit results in the suspension of your account, and the challenge or live account is considered failed.

💡 How does the Daily Loss Limit work?

The limit applies to both closed and open positions.
This rule is enforced across all Challenge Accounts and Direct Pass accounts in Winbance. It ensures risk control and encourages disciplined trading behavior.

🧠 Example:

If you are trading a $50,000 account (challenge), your daily loss limit is $1,100.
If your closed losses for the day reach $700, and you currently have an open trade showing a $500 unrealized loss, your total daily loss is now $1,200.
Since this exceeds the limit, your account will be violated and marked as failed.

To avoid this, always monitor your total running PnL (closed + floating) during the day.

Note: Commissions are part of your losses and add up at the end of the day. It is essential to consider the number of contracts traded to avoid increasing negative balances due to commission costs. Keep track of these expenses to optimize profitability and prevent unnecessary losses.
