Prime Plan : Rules & Risk Parameters

Key trading limits, drawdown rules, and compliance requirements.

Updated this week

Summary

The Prime Plan provides traders with real payout opportunities within a simulated capital environment under strict rule enforcement. Unlike other plans, Prime accounts cannot be reset. Any rule breach leads to permanent account failure. Below are the exact drawdown rules, position limits, risk parameters, and compliance standards for all Prime Plan accounts.


Trailing Max Drawdown (Intraday)

All Prime Plan accounts use an Intraday Trailing Max Drawdown (ITD), which updates in real time as your equity reaches new highs. The drawdown must be respected at all times, and falling below it results in immediate failure.

Daily Loss Limit (Soft Breach)

Some Prime Plan accounts include a Daily Loss Limit (DLL). This is a warning threshold, not an instant failure. Exceeding it may trigger a compliance review.

30% Consistency Rule

To be eligible for payouts:

  • No single trading day may represent more than 30% of total profits for the payout cycle.

  • If violated, payout eligibility is delayed until profits are more evenly distributed.

This rule encourages stable, sustainable trading rather than one-day spikes.


Platform Requirements

All trading must be done exclusively on the official MegaTraderX platform (web or mobile).
Use of bots, external APIs, automation tools, or off-platform routing will result in immediate termination without refund.


Inactivity & Conduct

To keep your Prime Plan account active and compliant:

  • Avoid inactivity for longer than two weeks

  • Notify support if you plan a long break

  • Maintain professional conduct in all communications and payout requests

Accounts showing inactivity or misconduct may be reviewed or suspended.


No Reset Policy

Prime Plan accounts do not offer resets.
If you break a rule:

  • The account is permanently failed

  • A new Prime Plan must be purchased to restart
