What is negative balance protection?

Zuperior provides negative balance protection on retail accounts. This means your account balance cannot go below zero.

How it works:

  • If your account equity drops below the stop-out level due to losing trades, your positions are automatically closed.
  • Even if the market gaps past your stop loss and closes your trade at a worse price, Zuperior absorbs the difference and resets your balance to zero.

Example:

  • Your account has $100 and a trade gaps down causing a loss of $150.
  • Without protection, you would owe $50. With negative balance protection, your balance shows $0.

Note:

  • Negative balance protection applies to retail clients only.
  • Professional accounts may have different terms. Check your account agreement.
