Plutus Trade Base Rules

Plutus Trade Base's plans state a maximum drawdown of 5% to 12% of the account size (drawdown type: static and trailing), across 20 plans. A consistency rule applies: 40% best-day rule at payout on Lightning funded accounts and the 2-step challenge; 5% stable daily average on Adventure; Freedom's Skill Score caps the size of each payout; none in the Lightning challenge. News trading is conditional: permitted on Lightning, Freedom and the 2-step challenge; not permitted on Adventure; not permitted on Instant unless a news add-on is bought.

Plutus Trade Base's plans state a maximum drawdown of 5% to 12% of the account size (drawdown type: static and trailing), across 20 plans.

A daily loss limit of 3% to 7% is stated on 10 of 20 plans; where a plan shows a dash, no daily figure is recorded for it.

Dollar amounts are the published percentage applied to the account size.
