Trailing drawdown
Trailing drawdown
When a Challenge uses trailing drawdown, the drawdown limit can move as your equity reaches new highs, according to that Challenge's rules. Not every Challenge uses trailing drawdown.
What to know
- As your session makes new highs, the allowed floor can rise with those highs when trailing rules apply.
- Giving back too much from the high-water level can fail the Challenge even if you were previously profitable.
- Exact methodology (including how highs are measured) is defined on the Challenge offer.
If your Challenge uses static drawdown or another risk style instead, follow that offer's rules.
