Max Drawdown

Static on One, Two and Signature. Instant: trailing on the highest end-of-day balance; retains its pre-payout level unless Remove Lock on Payout is purchased. One also retains its pre-payout level. Instant requires a 5% non-withdrawable buffer.

A cumulative A Book loss limit also follows the account daily limit; on InstantGrowth it is 6%.
