Firm notes
No daily loss limit, but the 6% max loss trails the highest balance (capped at the initial balance) and never resets after a reward. Split 70% on tiers 1-2, 80% from tier 3. Reward on demand at 5% growth or every 14 days with at least 1%. No fee refund. 40% of news-window profit counted. Overnight and weekend holding allowed.

How FundedNext measures the daily loss
The daily limit is where most challenges are lost. What counts, from which balance, and when it resets:
- Stellar 2-Step: counted from the balance recorded at the daily reset, resets at 00:00 server (GMT+2/+3).
- Stellar 1-Step: counted from the balance recorded at the daily reset, resets at 00:00 server (GMT+2/+3).
- Stellar Lite: counted from the balance recorded at the daily reset, resets at 00:00 server (GMT+2/+3).
- Stellar Instant: no daily loss limit.
Size your FundedNext trades before you place them
The FundedNext calculator turns your balance, risk per trade and stop loss into a lot size, so a single loss stays inside the daily limit. It is free and works without an account.
