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).

EOD trailing drawdown: Elite Challenge, Elite Daily, Elite ACCESS Standard, Instant Sim Funded and IGNITE.

Elite ACCESS Intraday uses EOD trailing drawdown during evaluation and real-time intraday trailing drawdown when funded. The funded drawdown follows the highest realized or unrealized equity and locks at starting balance + $100 after the first payout.

S2F Sim Pro uses intraday trailing drawdown.

For Instant Sim Funded, the trailing drawdown locks above the starting balance once its lock condition is reached or after the first payout.
