How Does the Overall Drawdown Limit for the Instant Funding Pro Account Work?

The Overall Drawdown Limit for the Instant Funding Pro Account is 3%.

Key Points to Understand:

Trailing Overall Drawdown: The Overall Drawdown is calculated based on your account’s Highest Balance (Maximum Balance Watermark) and does not reset daily at 5 PM EST. It consistently remains at 3% of the INITIAL BALANCE from the peak balance and is always trailing.

Example 1:
Start of Day 1:
Starting Balance/Equity: $100,000
Initial Overall Drawdown: 3% of $100,000, which means the stop-out limit is set at $97,000. If Either Equity or Balance reaches this limit, it would result in a breach of the Overall Drawdown Limit.

During Day 1:
New Balance: $103,000
Overall Drawdown: $103,000- $3,000 = $100,000. If Either Equity or Balance reaches this limit, it would result in a breach of the Overall Drawdown Limit.

Day 2:
Starting Balance/Equity: $101,000
Allowed Overall Drawdown: The stop-out limit remains at $100,000 as it is based on the highest balance of $103,000. If Either Equity or Balance reaches this limit, it would result in a breach of the Overall Drawdown Limit.
