Prop Firms with 1% Floating Loss Rule & Micro-Loss Tripwires
The 1% floating loss rule is a buried compliance condition enforced on select instant funding and micro-evaluation tiers where having any single position floating at a 1% loss relative to starting capital results in instant breach.
Traders often buy an account expecting a standard 4% daily or 8% maximum loss limit, only to fail within minutes because a single position experienced a normal 1.05% pullback.
Check support FAQs for "Instant Funding Micro Caps" or "Single Trade Maximum Drawdown". Marketing headers almost never advertise this rule.
