Finotive Funding $10,000 Challenge — Position Size Calculator

Quick Answer

Firm Rules Summary

Risk Guide

On a $10,000 Finotive Funding account, you have exactly $400 to lose per day before violating the 4% daily loss limit. At 1% risk per trade, that's $100 per position, meaning you could theoretically take 4 consecutive losses before hitting the limit. However, this math gets dangerous fast - four losing trades at 1% risk would consume your entire daily allowance. With 2% risk per trade ($200 per position), just two losses would put you at the $400 limit. The real danger with this account size lies in the 7.5% maximum drawdown rule ($750 total). While the daily loss limit resets each day, the max drawdown tracks your account from its highest point. If you lose $400 on day one, you only have $350 remaining drawdown space for the entire challenge duration. For position sizing on major pairs: EURUSD with a 30-pip stop at 1% risk allows 3.33 lots ($100 ÷ 30 pips ÷ $10 per pip). GBPUSD with a 40-pip stop allows 2.5 lots ($100 ÷ 40 pips ÷ $10 per pip). Gold with a $20 stop allows 5 lots ($100 ÷ $20 per ounce). US30 with a 50-point stop allows 2 lots ($100 ÷ 50 points ÷ $1 per point). Unlike many prop firms, Finotive Funding runs a single-phase challenge with no profit target - you only need to avoid breaching the loss limits for a minimum of 3 trading days. This means you can focus entirely on capital preservation rather than aggressive profit generation. Once funded, the same risk parameters apply, but you'll receive profit splits on any gains above the starting balance. The key insight: with only $400 daily breathing room, most traders should risk well below 1% per trade to maintain longevity.
