Is the Max Daily Drawdown static or trailing?

Written by Viktor B.

Fundedbit uses real-time equity tracking, which includes all open positions, to calculate the Daily Loss limit and the overall Drawdown limit. The equity is monitored in real-time, meaning if your account equity falls below the allowed loss threshold at any moment, the breach is triggered instantly. There is no waiting until end of day. Here is how it breaks down by challenge: The FastTrack programm has a 3% daily loss limit. The 1-Step challenge has a 4% daily loss limit. The 2-Step challenge has a 5% daily loss limit. For the overall drawdown, FastTrack and 1-Step use a 6% trailing drawdown based on your highest equity ever reached. The 2-Step uses a 10% absolute drawdown from your initial starting balance, so that floor never moves.
