While not a hard rule, FTMO has a "Best Day" guideline for certain account types where your most profitable day should not exceed 50% of your total profit.
Worked example: on a $10,000 profit, if the rule caps a single day at 50% of total profit, no day can exceed $5,000 in P&L.
High-impact economic releases (NFP, FOMC, CPI) are when most prop firms enforce restrictions. At FTMO, news trading is permitted without restrictions.
For Standard accounts, no trading 2 minutes before and after high-impact news releases.
Worked example: with an absolute balance-based drawdown, the threshold is fixed at the start of the evaluation and does not trail your equity curve as you grow the account.
