Accounts

# Multiple accounts, one allocation ceiling.

You can hold more than one account, on any mix of the three programmes, up to $400,000 of total simulated allocation. Each account carries its own drawdown and its own payout cycle. Trading them at the same time is allowed; deliberately taking opposite sides across them is prohibited.

The rule

## How many accounts can I have?

Percentages are what the industry publishes. These are the same rules in dollars, worked on a $100,000 simulated account, so there is nothing left to convert.

- **More than one account**: Allowed
- **Total allocation ceiling**: $400,000
- **Instant and an evaluation together**: Allowed Any mix of programmes counts toward the same ceiling.
- **Drawdown**: Per account A breach on one does not breach the others.
- **Opposite sides across accounts**: Prohibited Treated as coordinated trading.
- **Several customer profiles**: Prohibited One person, one profile.

Plan applicability

## Which programmes this rule applies to

Our three programmes do not share one rulebook. This table is the part of the page to read before you buy.

- **Instant Applies**: Counts toward $400,000 Can be held alongside an evaluation account.
- **1 Step Applies**: Counts toward $400,000 Each account has its own limits and cycle.
- **2 Step Applies**: Counts toward $400,000 Each account has its own limits and cycle.

Why it exists

## The reasoning, stated plainly

Splitting allocation across accounts is a legitimate way to diversify strategies and to keep one bad run from ending everything. The ceiling and the coordination rule are what stop the same freedom becoming a way to buy both sides of a coin flip.

Worked example

## The same rule, as a number

A $100,000 simulated account, because that is the size most people are deciding about.

### Two accounts, run properly

A $100,000 1 Step and a $50,000 2 Step.

- **Total allocation**: $150,000 Within the $400,000 ceiling.
- **1 Step daily limit**: $5,000 Its own limit, its own reset.
- **2 Step daily limit**: $2,500 5% of $50,000.
- **Same instrument, same direction**: Allowed Two expressions of one view.
- **Same instrument, opposite directions**: Prohibited A hedge across accounts.

Two accounts means two sets of limits to track at once, on different reset times and different payout cycles. That is the practical cost of running more than one.

Commonly misread

## What traders get wrong here

Every item below has cost somebody an account. They are published for that reason rather than for completeness.

“My accounts share one drawdown pool”: They do not. Drawdown is applied per account.

“Opposite positions on two accounts are just diversification”

Deliberate opposite sides across accounts is coordinated trading and is prohibited.
