# Do I get a free retake if I fail the 2 Step?

Yes - one free retake, on tighter limits: a 3% Daily Loss Limit, a 4% non-trailing Maximum Drawdown and a 60% profit split once funded.

[← All questions](https://getfundednow.com/faq)

## The full answer

Yes. If you fail the 2 Step by breaching a hard trading rule, you get one free retake of that account.

The retake runs on tighter limits than a first attempt:

- 3% Daily Loss Limit (down from 5%).
- 4% non-trailing Maximum Drawdown (down from 8%).
- 60% profit split on the Funded Account it leads to (down from 80%).

Every other 2 Step rule still applies to the retake.
