Maximum Drawdown Rule

How We Calculate The Static Drawdown

 

Welcome back, traders. In this article, we’re going to cover how we calculate the static drawdown.

The Maximum Drawdown is static, which means it is calculated based on the initial balance and not the equity.

For example:

The Maximum drawdown of a 100K Turtle account is 10% of the initial balance. This means that the Maximum drawdown level is always 100K minus (100K x 10%) = 90K.

If you violate this rule, the account will be closed.

Now you don’t have to worry about calculating any of this because it’s all done in our dashboard automatically for you. This rule is the same for both challenge accounts and funded accounts, so please make sure you understand the rule and good luck trading.
