An inactive account is an account with 21 days of no trading activity.
If the account reaches a daily loss of 5,5% of the balance (2.5% on Jalapeño), it will be closed. The daily loss is based on the previous day's equity as of 18:00 New York time.
Trading of important news (with high market impact) is not prohibited. But it must be note that during a high-impact news event, during volatile moments there might be a slippage (i.e. difference between the expected price of a trade and the price at which the trade is executed). Slippage can not be controlled by company side.
