Max Drawdown
  • Legacy No Scaling Account: real-time Trailing Drawdown.
  • Legacy EOD Account: End-of-Day Drawdown.
  • In Legacy Master accounts, both thresholds stop moving when they reach the initial balance +$100.
  • Momentum and Fast Track Option 1: Trailing Drawdown.
  • Momentum and Fast Track Option 2: EOD Drawdown.
  • The amount for each account appears in the challenge table.

Evaluation Phase

  • Prime / Classic / Premier EOD: End-of-Day trailing drawdown based on realized gains.
  • Elite / Premier Intraday: Intraday trailing drawdown based on unrealized gains.
  • S2F Standard: End-of-Day drawdown.
  • S2F Accelerate: Intraday trailing drawdown with no ceiling.
  • Velocity: End-of-Day drawdown.
  • Base Plan: $2,000 End-of-Day trailing drawdown based on the highest End-of-Day balance.

Simulated Funded Phase

  • End-of-Day drawdown on all plans except S2F Accelerate and Base Plan. Once an End-of-Day account reaches the buffer zone (e.g., $52,000 for $50K account), the drawdown becomes static at the initial balance.
  • S2F Accelerate: Intraday trailing drawdown with no ceiling.
  • Base Plan: $2,000 intraday trailing drawdown that locks once the account reaches $2,000 in profit.

Professional Stage

  • End-of-Position (EoP) drawdown: adjusts only when a position is closed in profit. Drawdown locks at a static threshold once fully recovered (e.g., $50,100 for $50K account).
Profit Split
  • First $10,000 in eligible cumulative profits per trader profile: 100% to the trader.
  • Thereafter: 90% to the trader and 10% to Bulenox.
  • The first-$10,000 threshold is shared across accounts and products.

Simulated Funded Accounts
