FTMO Futures has lowered the end-of-day trailing Max Drawdown on its Growth plan. The 100K size drops from $3,500 to $3,000 and the 150K size from $5,000 to $4,500, in both the Evaluation and the Funded account. Growth 50K stays at $2,000, and Pro stays at $3,000, $4,500 and $6,000 on 50K, 100K and 150K.
The same amounts apply on the Live program. There the Max Drawdown is the only trading objective, and the starting balance equals the Max Drawdown amount, so the Growth Live starting balance is now $2,000, $3,000 and $4,500 on 50K, 100K and 150K. The drawdown still locks permanently once it reaches the Initial Capital.
Full rules are on the FTMO firm page.
