FundedNext $300,000 Challenge — Position Size Calculator

Quick Answer

Firm Rules Summary

Risk Guide

With FundedNext's $300k account, you have exactly $15,000 before hitting the daily loss limit. At 1% risk ($3,000 per trade), you can survive 5 consecutive losses before breaching. At 2% risk ($6,000 per trade), just 2.5 losses puts you out - meaning two full losses plus any partial third loss ends your day. The danger scenario here is overleveraging on correlated pairs. If you're long EURUSD, GBPUSD, and AUDUSD with 2% each during a USD strength surge, that's $18,000 at risk - already exceeding your daily limit if all hit stops simultaneously. For position sizing math: EURUSD with 50-pip stop at 1% risk equals $3,000 ÷ $500 = 6 standard lots. GBPJPY with 80-pip stop becomes $3,000 ÷ $800 = 3.75 lots. Gold with $20 stop allows $3,000 ÷ $2,000 = 1.5 lots. These calculations assume standard pip values, but always verify current rates. The max drawdown of $30,000 provides more breathing room than daily limits, but consecutive bad days accumulate quickly. Your profit targets are $24,000 for Phase 1 (8%) and $15,000 for Phase 2 (5%). Most traders fail on risk management, not profit generation. Between challenge and funded phases, the daily loss limit remains 5%, but your psychological pressure changes - protect funded accounts more conservatively even though rules stay identical. Calculate your position sizes before market open, never during emotional moments mid-trade. With 5 minimum trading days required, you cannot rush - use this time to prove consistency rather than swinging for quick profits.
