Risk & prop-firm engine
Prop firms don't sell funding — they sell risk-management failure. Our execution layer is physically restricted from breaking the rules. Each rule below is a hard boundary the strategy cannot cross.
Trails your highest EOD balance and locks permanently once it reaches your start balance — it never "turns off," it stops trailing. The bot refuses new entries within a buffer of the floor.
Hit the daily limit and the bot flattens everything and suspends until the next session. No revenge trading — it's code, not willpower.
No single day may exceed the plan's share of total profit. The bot stops for the day before it would breach — the rule that fails most algos, handled automatically.
No overnight risk in evaluation or funded phases. Flatten well inside the cutoff to dodge closing-bell liquidity.
Size is never static — contracts are computed from the dollar distance to the stop so each trade risks a fixed fraction, and risk is cut automatically near the floor.
contracts = floor( (balance × risk%) ÷ (ticks_to_stop × tick_value) )
A retail algo optimizes for maximum return in ideal conditions. A fundable algo optimizes for survival in terrible conditions — staying alive long enough to build a buffer and request a payout. Rules verified against Lucid's current 2026 spec.
