Daily Violation Deduction Policy

How we apply risk-related deductions to your account daily for a smoother process.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

To enhance efficiency and provide faster payout processing, TopTier Trader has implemented a daily risk deduction system for both challenge and funded accounts.

This ensures violations are handled promptly rather than at the end of a payout cycle.


✅ Deduction Policy:

Account Type

Effective Date

Deduction Timing

Funded Accounts

October 21st, 2024

Within 1 business day of violation

Challenge Accounts (1 Phase, Phase 1 & 2)

November 18th, 2024

Within 1 business day of violation


📢 How Will I Know If My Account Is Affected?

You’ll receive a direct notification from our Risk Team if a deduction is made on your account—whether it’s a funded account or still in the challenge phase.


❗What Happens If a Deduction Breaches a Drawdown Rule?

  • If a maximum drawdown limit is breached due to a deduction:

    • The account will be immediately considered breached

    • The account will be closed and no longer eligible for further use


🛑 What If It Reduces My Daily Drawdown But Doesn’t Breach It?

We advise:

  • Pausing trading for the day

  • Resuming the next day after the daily limit resets
    This reduces the risk of unintentionally breaching your daily loss limit.


💼 Does This Affect Funded Payout Timelines?

No. This update only affects when deductions are applied, not the payout schedule itself.


🤖 EA-Related Deductions (Non-EA Accounts)

  • Deductions related to EA (Expert Advisor) use on non-EA accounts will still be processed within 1 business day

  • These violations are typically applied after:

    • Completing Phase 2, or

    • A payout request

  • A thorough review will be conducted before any deduction is finalized
