How is the Max Total Loss Limit calculated on Pro Accounts?
The Max Total Loss Limit on a 2 Step Pro Account is 6%.
On 1 Step and Instant Funded Pro Accounts, it is 5%.
Your maximum trailing drawdown is set at 6% or 5% of your starting account balance during the evaluation, depending on your account type.
How does it work?
Max trailing drawdown includes all closed-trade profits and losses, swap fees, and commissions.
Examples on 2 Step Pro Accounts
$100K account with $8,000 profit
With a balance of $108,000, your max trailing drawdown locks at the starting balance of $100,000 after you achieve 6% profit.
Once your equity reaches $106,000 on an account with a 6% Max Total Loss Limit, the limit stays at $100,000, even if you make further profits. It will no longer trail.
$100K account with $5,000 profit
With a balance of $105,000, the max trailing drawdown is:
$105,000 - $6,000 = $99,000
