Does Purdia Capital Have a Daily Loss Limit?
The Simple Answer
It depends which Purdia programme you buy. Evaluations carry a daily loss limit on both sizes. Instant Funded accounts do not list one at all, running on the end-of-day drawdown alone. The Pilot account has one.
Below is a breakdown of how the Purdia Capital daily loss limit applies across every account type the firm offers.
Daily Loss Limit by Account Type
Breakdown by Account Type
Evaluation accounts
Both Purdia evaluations carry a daily loss limit. The 50k EOD Evaluation has a $1,000 daily loss limit against a $2,000 end-of-day drawdown, with a $2,000 profit target and 5 minimum days. The 100k EOD Evaluation has a $2,000 daily loss limit against a $3,000 drawdown, with a $6,000 profit target, 5 minimum days and a contract size of 10 minis or 100 micros. The activation fee is charged only after you pass and activate the funded account.
Instant Funded accounts
The Instant Funded range does not publish a daily loss limit on any size. The 25k runs a $1,000 profit target against a $750 end-of-day drawdown with 2 minis or 20 micros, the 50k a $2,000 target against $1,500 with 5 minis or 50 micros, and the 100k a $3,000 target against $3,000 with 10 minis or 100 micros. All three need 10 minimum days, pay a 90 percent split and offer daily payouts.
Purdia Pilot
Pilot is where Purdia tests new account concepts before they join the permanent lineup. Pilot #001, the 100K Pioneer, is an Instant Funding model carrying a $1,500 daily loss limit alongside a $3,300 end-of-day drawdown, a $5,500 profit target, a $3,000 retained buffer, a first payout of up to $2,500, 7 minis or 70 micros and 7 minimum days. Because it is an early-access product, treat its rules as provisional.
What applies across every Purdia account
The evaluation path asks for the profit target, a minimum of 5 trading days and staying above the max drawdown. Funding then asks for a minimum of 10 trading days, staying above the max drawdown and 5 profitable days, after which daily payouts are available with no payout day cycles. News trading is allowed, DCA and scalping are allowed, and you may trade up to three accounts.
Where to check the current figure
Purdia publishes a dedicated Daily Loss Limit article in its knowledgebase under Rules and Risk Management, alongside articles on max drawdown types, position size limits and the protected buffer. Since the Pilot lineup changes, check there for the live figure on your specific account before you size a position.
Final Comments
Purdia runs its own changelog page, so rules and programme parameters are versioned publicly. Worth checking it if you bought an account some months ago, since the figures above reflect the current published lineup.
A daily loss limit is the rule most traders breach first, usually on a day they were already losing. Know your number before the session starts, and check it against your own platform rather than assuming the firm will stop you in time.
