What Are the Drawdown Limits?

The maximum drawdown at every stage of the instant funding program is 8%. This is a RELATIVE DRAWDOWN based on your BALANCE.


EXAMPLE


If you are trading the 10K account, your account balance must not fall below $9,400.


If you reach an account balance of $10,250, your new minimum account balance would be $9,650.


If you then reach an account balance of $10,900 **, your new **minimum account balance would be $10,000.


Once your drawdown reaches 10K, it is then locked in place.


If you then have a loss of -$300 **, putting your balance at **$10,600, your minimum account balance would remain at $10,000.
