Pips & Risk Management

Master pip usage, available pip logic, and how lives and losses affect your challenge.

Updated over 2 weeks ago

๐Ÿ”Ž What Are "Pips Available"?

Your Pips Available are the number of pips you can currently risk on open trades. They are based on how many pips you started the level with.

Example: If you start with 100 pips and place a trade with a 20-pip SL, youโ€™ll have 80 pips available.

These pips remain tied up until the trade closes or is cancelled.


๐Ÿ“‰ What Happens if I Have 0 Pips Available?

You cannot place a new trade until you:

  • Close an existing trade, or

  • Reduce the SL on an open trade to free up pips.

If you have 0 pips and no open trades, you've failed the Level.


๐Ÿ”€ Can I Have Multiple Trades Open?

Yes, as long as you have enough available pips to cover the SL of each open trade.

Example:

  • Trade 1: SL 20 pips

  • Trade 2: SL 15 pips

  • Trade 3: SL 10 pips

  • Total Used: 45 pips โ†’ Leaves 5 pips left for additional trades


โ›” What Happens if I Run Out of Pips on Level 1?

If you lose all pips on Level 1, your challenge ends. You'll need to restart by purchasing a new challenge.


๐Ÿ” What Happens if I Run Out of Pips on Other Levels?

Youโ€™ll drop down to the previous Level and choose a new pip amount to risk. You get another chance to climb back up.


๐Ÿง  How Many Pips Can I Risk Per Trade?

You can only risk the amount of pips you have available.

Example: If you have 75 pips available, you can only place trades with SLs totaling up to 75.


โš™๏ธ How Are Pips Counted?

Your progress is based on net pips gained or lost.

Examples:

  • 3 trades: +10, +5, -5 โ†’ Net = 10 pips gained

  • 2 trades: +20, -10 โ†’ Net = 10 pips gained

Pips are calculated from both open and closed trades.


๐ŸŽฏ How Many Pips Do I Need to Pass?

You must gain 2x your pip target to pass the Level.

Example:

  • 25 pip target โ†’ 50 pips needed to pass

  • 100 pip target โ†’ 200 pips needed to pass


๐Ÿ“Š What Happens When I Reach My Target?

Your trade(s) will automatically close once your net pips reach the required target, and you'll be promoted to the next Level.


๐Ÿ’” What is the Lives System?

You start with 3 lives. You lose 1 life each time you lose all your pips on a Level.

  • Lose all pips = Lose 1 life

  • If on Level 1 = Redo the Level

  • Lose all 3 lives = Challenge ends

Lives are not regenerated.
