Adding Positions to Losing Trades Rule

Updated this week

One of the main reasons traders blow their accounts is due to failing to cut losses early when a trade is going in the wrong direction, and instead adding more entries to already losing positions.

To prevent rapid account depletion and rule violations, we limit the ability to add trades to a losing position:

If a position is in floating loss, you cannot increase the total lot size by more than 2x the size of the existing open position.

Example #1:

If you already have a 3-lot trade running at a loss, any additional entry must not cause the total lot size to exceed 5.99 lots.

This rule is designed to protect traders from blowing their account on a single bad trade.

Please note: Violating this rule will result in account termination.
