Trading Rules
Every Dizso Funded account comes with a short set of rules. This page explains what each one means, how it is measured and what happens if it is broken.
Rules at a glance
1 Phase accounts come in two types, Classic and Rapid, while 2 Phases accounts have a single option. The figures below apply to every account size.
| Rule | 1 Phase · Classic | 1 Phase · Rapid | 2 Phases |
|---|---|---|---|
| Profit target | 10% | 12% | 5% / 10% |
| Daily loss limit | 3% | 3% | 5% |
| Max drawdown | 6% | 5% | 8% |
| Drawdown type | Static | Static | Trailing |
| Profit split | 80% | 80% | 80% |
| Time limit | None | None | None |
| Minimum trading days | None | None | None |
| Commission per trade | 0.045% open / 0.045% close | 0.045% open / 0.045% close | 0.045% open / 0.045% close |
On 2 Phases accounts the first profit target is for phase 1 and the second one for phase 2. Instant accounts are coming soon, and their rules will be published here when they launch.
Profit target
The profit target is the gain, as a percentage of the account, that you need to reach in a phase to pass it. Reach it without breaking any other rule and you move on to the next phase or, after the last one, to a funded account.
Daily loss limit
The daily loss limit is the maximum percentage of the account that you can lose in a single day. It is measured on floating results: open trades count, so a position that is deep in the red counts as a loss even if you have not closed it yet.
The day resets at 00:00 UTC. If your losses in a day go past the limit, the account is suspended.
For example, on a $25,000 1 Phase Classic account the limit is 3%, which is $750. Losing more than that in one day suspends the account.
Max drawdown
The max drawdown is the most that your account can lose in total. If your losses reach that percentage of the account, the account is suspended.
Unlike the daily loss limit, it does not reset each day. How the limit is measured depends on the type of drawdown.
Drawdown types
There are two types of drawdown, and the number of phases sets which one your account uses: 1 Phase accounts have a static drawdown and 2 Phases accounts always have a trailing drawdown.
- Static: the max drawdown is fixed. It is measured from your starting balance and never moves, however much you earn. On a $25,000 account with a 6% limit, your equity can't fall below $23,500.
- Trailing: the floor rises as you win trades, but it never goes down. For example, on a $5,000 account with a 8% max drawdown the floor starts at $4,600; as you make profit it can rise to $4,800 and beyond, and it never drops back.
Both types are measured on floating results, so open trades count.
Profit split
The profit split is the percentage of the profit that you keep when you request a withdrawal from a funded account. In general it is 80%: you keep 80% and Dizso Funded keeps the rest.
How profit is calculated and how payouts work are set out in the Terms and Conditions.
Time limit
The time limit is how long you have to trade an account. In general our accounts have no time limit: you can take as many days as you need.
Minimum trading days
Our accounts have no minimum trading days: you don't need to trade a set number of days to pass a phase.
Commission
Every trade pays a commission of 0.045% when it is opened and another 0.045% when it is closed.
Other conditions
The conduct rules that apply to every trade, such as the minimum trade duration, hedging and other prohibited strategies, are set out in the Terms and Conditions.
