What is covered in this chapter

Defensive Sizing on Funded Accounts

When you manage funded capital, you do not own the money. You are managing the firm's capital under their strict parameters. Therefore, you must apply stricter risk controls than you would on your own personal account.

Funded Rule: On a personal account, you might risk 1% per trade. On a funded account, once you pass, you immediately drop your risk to 0.25% to 0.5%. Your objective is not to double the account; it is to secure small, consistent payouts (1% to 3% monthly) which generate massive returns on high capital sizes.

Dealing With Correlation Risk

You cannot hold multiple correlated positions (e.g. buying EUR/USD and GBP/USD) on a funded account. A single USD-strengthening event will trigger both stop-losses, leading to a 1% drawdown and potentially breaching your daily limit.
