Max Drawdown

Trailing at each day's close, 16:45 New York. On funded Standard, Apex and Direct, stops rising at starting balance; the first payout request locks the floor there. Live: trailing equity without a lock.

  • Evaluation and LiveSim: EOD (End Of Day balance)
  • Live: Trailing
Profit Split

Atlas Live: 100%. Reached after the fourth paid payout. All programs remain simulated.

  • $25K–$200K accounts: 80/20 if the profit reaches or exceeds the threshold set for the account size; 50/50 if it is below the threshold.
  • Trader Career Path® $400K accounts: fixed 60/40.
Daily Drawdown

Standard: soft limit. Closes positions and locks trading until the 16:45 New York reset; does not close the account unless maximum drawdown is also reached.

Both Trading Path Career and Gauntlet Mini have daily drawdown limits. On the funded phase, daily drawdown can be removed upon request after the lower threshold of the trader's maximum drawdown reaches the account's starting balance.
