\nDuring evaluation (all account types), the maximum allowed contracts are determined by the account's scaling plan maximum. These are the same limits used in the funded account's top tier.

\nFunded Account Contract Scaling Plan
\nIn funded accounts, contract limits are progressive and scale automatically. At the end of each trading day, your contract limit is set from your account's end-of-day balance using the scaling table for your account size below. When your balance reaches a new tier, the higher limit applies from your next session. If your balance falls below a tier, your limit steps back down at the end of that day.
\nYour limit is the total across every product you trade. Trading more than one product to get around your current limit is a broken rule.

\n| EXCEEDING CONTRACT LIMITS = IMMEDIATE ACCOUNT LOSS\nTrading two different products simultaneously can cause you to exceed your total allowed contracts. The system may not catch this instantly: it may be reviewed at end of day.\nIf you exceed your contract limits at ANY point (evaluation, exhibition, or funded), the account is failed immediately.\nIn funded accounts, your limit for each session is the one set at the end of the previous trading day. |

\nQ: Do I need to request a scaling increase or does it happen automatically?
\nA: Scaling is automatic. At the end of each trading day, your contract limit is set from your end-of-day balance using the scaling table for your account size, up or down.
