DayTraders states where Trail drawdown stops

DayTraders Trail accounts now have stated stop levels: evaluations stop at the profit-target balance, Pro at the starting balance.

Published Oct 23, 20261 min read

DayTraders Trail accounts use an intraday trailing drawdown. The level follows your highest balance in real time, including open profit, and never moves down. Touching it fails the account. It starts at the starting balance minus the max drawdown.

In an evaluation, the drawdown stops trailing once it reaches the profit-target balance. On a Pro account it starts again at the full max drawdown and stops at the starting balance. We previously showed no stop level.

Example on a 50K: the level starts at $47,500. If your balance peaks at $52,000, it moves to $49,500.

Full rules are on the DayTraders firm page.
