# Breaches page: what happened to the account

This list is the official log of yellow warnings and red closures. Read the rule name, time, and numbers. Do not keep trading after a hard breach. Appeals exist only when the page says so.

## Step 1: Open Breaches and match it to Trading Rules

Open [Breaches](https://smpfund.com/account/breaches). You see open accounts with a warning count, then a history of events. Each row names a rule (daily loss, max total loss, Max Open-Trade Loss, hedging, …), a threshold, and the actual value.

Look up that same chapter on [Trading Rules](https://smpfund.com/trading-rules). For news times, also open [News calendar](https://smpfund.com/account/news-calendar) — our clock, not your phone.

Yellow usually keeps the account open after stripping profit on the bad trades. Red usually means closed. Details stay on this page even if MetaTrader still looks logged in.

- Yellow
- Red

## Step 2: If you think the row is wrong

Do not open new trades “to recover” after red. Check [My challenges](https://smpfund.com/account/challenges) status. If the page offers an appeal and the window is still open, follow that button. Otherwise open [Tickets](https://smpfund.com/account/tickets) with the breach time, trade id, and a screenshot of the row — not a theory about the market.

Resetting a failed test (if eligible) is [Challenge reset](https://smpfund.com/account/challenge-reset), not an appeal.

- [News calendar and yellow/red flags (beginner)](https://smpfund.com/help/news-and-flags): Restricted news windows follow the clock at the top of the panel, not your phone. Trading inside a news window is never a yellow or red flag: on Prime/Rapid only 40% of that profit counts, and on Instant it is not credited. Yellow and red flags come from other rules — confirm your program on Trading Rules.
- [My challenges: status, targets, and why MT5 is not enough](https://smpfund.com/help/challenges): This list is the official status of each test (preparing, active, passed, failed). Profit target and loss limits are enforced here. MetaTrader only shows broker P&L.
- [Where the real rules live (and what this help center is)](https://smpfund.com/help/rules-and-faq): Trading Rules is the full contract. FAQ is short answers. This help center is the how-to for buttons and MetaTrader. If they ever disagree, the contract pages win.
