What Time Does Funded Trading Plus's Trading Day Reset?
Rules verified 2026-07-12 · official source
Funded Trading Plus's trading day resets at midnight (00:00) Athens time, not your local midnight. That's when the daily-loss window rolls over and a new day starts for the trading-day count.
When the day flips
Funded Trading Plus runs its trading day on Athens time, resetting at midnight (00:00). Because the boundary is tied to a fixed timezone, it follows that clock through daylight-saving changes — so relative to your own timezone the reset can shift by an hour twice a year. What never changes: it's Funded Trading Plus's clock that counts, not the one on your wall.
Funded Trading Plus does enforce a daily-loss rule, but states its basis inconsistently across its own docs, so TradersGuild doesn't publish a single reset-anchored number for it (see the daily-loss page). The reset still draws the trading-day boundary.
1-Step Express uses a RELATIVE (trailing) max drawdown of 6% that follows your highest CLOSED balance (the high-water mark) — floating profit never raises the floor, but your equity (balance + open trades) can breach it at any moment. Don't log an intraday unrealized peak on this account; TradersGuild's closed-trade peak already matches FTP's line.
What the reset actually moves
A reset time sounds like trivia until it costs you an account. At Funded Trading Plus, midnight (00:00) Athens is when the firm's daily-loss window rolls over (basis unverified, so TradersGuild doesn't meter it — see the daily-loss page); the trading-day boundary is drawn for counting purposes (a day = at least one closed trade before the reset).
Knowing the exact boundary matters most around it: a "second trade of the day" taken a minute after the reset is really the first trade of a new day, with a fresh trading-day count.
| Rule | How the reset applies |
|---|---|
| Daily loss limit | Exists, basis unverified — held off the meter |
| Max-loss (drawdown) line | Trails intraday — not tied to the reset |
| Trading-day count | New day for counting (no minimum in the eval) |
How traders actually breach it
The classic reset mistake: miscounting trading days by trading across the midnight (00:00) boundary — two calendar sessions that share one firm "day," or one that spans two.
TradersGuild tracks this rule live against your trade log and alerts you while there's still room — "you're $220 from the line" beats finding out from a breach email. Tracking is free for your first account.

The daily loss limit is stated three different ways across FTP's own docs, so it isn't encoded as a meter yet.
