Max position is account size times the firm's max leverage on its Nasdaq-100 market. At full size is how many index points against you hit the max loss at that position. Enter the live index level for exact numbers. 1 NQ is $20 a point, 1 MNQ is $2. Firms can cap size per account, so check the platform.

Which perps prop firms let me trade NQ?

Vest and My Funded Perps, but it's not the same product. Vest lists NQ-PERP, an E-mini Nasdaq-100 perp, at up to 50x. My Funded Perps lists NAS100 at 12x. E8 lists index perps at up to 15x, but we haven't confirmed its Nasdaq-100 symbol yet, so it's not in the table above.

From each firm's docs and help center. Leverage can change, so check the platform before you trade.

How much NQ can my account carry?

Account size times the max leverage. A $25K Vest account at 50x carries up to $1,250,000, about 20.8 MNQ or 2.1 NQ with the index at 30,000. A $50K My Funded Perps account at 12x carries up to $600,000, about 10 MNQ. Pick a size in the table above to see every account.

How many NQ points is my drawdown?

Divide the dollar loss by $20 for one NQ worth of exposure, or by $2 for one MNQ. A $1,500 max loss is 75 NQ points or 750 MNQ points. That's at 1 contract worth. Size up and you get fewer points.

What happens if I max out the leverage?

The room shrinks fast. A $25K Vest evaluation at 50x with the index at 30,000: a 36-point move against you takes the whole $1,500 max loss, and 18 points hits the $750 daily limit. A $50K My Funded Perps Select at 12x: 75 points to its $1,500 max loss. Max leverage is a ceiling, not a position size.

Does the daily loss limit count open trades?

Yes. At Vest and My Funded Perps the daily loss limit is a hard breach and open PnL counts toward it, so a trade that's red at the wrong moment can fail the account even if it comes back. Each firm resets the day at a different time, see the table in the first answer.

Can I hold NQ over the weekend?

Depends on the firm. Vest locks NQ-PERP from Friday 8pm to Sunday 6pm ET: positions stay open, but you can't close, add or adjust until it reopens. My Funded Perps doesn't state weekend hours for NAS100.
