Maximum Daily Pause (3%)

Applicable Account Categories

• 1-Phase Funded Account
• 2-Phase Funded Account

Daily Loss Limit You Must Not Exceed While Trading

The Maximum Daily Pause represents the maximum loss allowed within a single trading day while trading under Global4EX funded account rules.

The limit is calculated based on the Initial Account Balance and measured from the start of each trading day.

The daily loss calculation includes:

• All closed trades
• All unrealized losses from open positions

If the account Balance or Equity drops below the permitted threshold at any time during the trading day, the Maximum Daily Pause is triggered, even if the account later recovers.

🔹 How Is the Maximum Daily Pause Calculated?

At any time during the trading day, the combined loss of open and closed trades must not exceed:

• 3% of the Initial Account Balance

(This rule applies to all Global4EX 1-Phase and 2-Phase funded accounts.)

📐 Formula

Current Daily Loss =
Results of closed positions for the day

  • Unrealized result of open positions

This value must never exceed 3% of the Initial Account Balance.

📊 Examples

Example 1 – Global4EX Funded Account

• Initial Account Balance: $100,000
• Maximum Daily Pause (3%): $3,000

If Balance or Equity drops below $97,000, the Maximum Daily Pause is triggered.

Example 2 – Profitable Start of Day

• Initial Account Balance: $100,000
• Start-of-day Balance: $103,400
• Maximum Daily Pause remains: $3,000

If Balance or Equity drops below $100,400, the Maximum Daily Pause is triggered.

(Daily loss is always calculated based on the Initial Balance, not accumulated profits.)

Example 3 – Loss Progression During the Day

• Trading day starts at 00:00 UTC
• Initial Account Balance: $100,000
• Maximum Daily Pause: $3,000

If Balance or Equity reaches $97,000:

• All open trades are automatically closed
• All trading activity is disabled for the remainder of the day

At 00:00 UTC the next day:

• Trading permissions are restored
• The account remains active and eligible to trade

🔑 Key Points

• Applies to Global4EX 1-Phase and 2-Phase funded accounts
• Maximum Daily Pause equals 3% of the Initial Account Balance
• This rule functions as a daily trading pause, not an account failure
• All open trades are closed once the limit is reached
• Trading is paused for the remainder of the day and resumes at 00:00 UTC the next day
• The limit resets daily
• Both Balance and Equity are monitored continuously
• Profits do not increase the daily loss allowance

📝 Explanation

The Maximum Daily Pause rule protects trading capital while enforcing disciplined intraday risk management across all Global4EX funded accounts.

When the daily loss threshold is reached:

• All positions are closed automatically
• Trading is paused for the remainder of the day
• The account remains active

Trading resumes automatically at the start of the next trading day.

Triggering the Maximum Daily Pause does not result in account failure or termination, but instead enforces structured daily risk control under Global4EX funded account rules.
