No daily loss limit applies. Quick Pay asks for 5 trading days and a 30% consistency rule, and the only way to fail is exceeding the maximum drawdown.
Fast Pass evaluation
Also no daily loss limit. Fast Pass has no minimum trading days and a looser 45% consistency rule, with the maximum drawdown again the single failure condition.

Final Comments
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.
