Elite Daily – Max Loss Limit (MLL)
The Max Loss Limit (MLL) is the maximum total loss your account can sustain before it is permanently breached.
Unlike the Daily Loss Limit, the MLL is based on an End of Day (EOD) trailing drawdown model.
Max Loss Limit by Account Size
Evaluation Accounts
$25,000 Account: $1,000 (4.00%)
$50,000 Account: $2,000 (4.00%)
$100,000 Account: $3,000 (3.00%)
Funded Accounts
$25,000 Account: $1,000 (4.00%)
$50,000 Account: $2,000 (4.00%)
$100,000 Account: $2,500 (2.50%)
How the End of Day Trailing Drawdown Works
The MLL follows a trailing model, but it only adjusts at the end of each trading day.
This means:
It does NOT trail intraday
It updates after the trading session closes
It is based on your end of day balance
As your account grows, the drawdown level moves upward and locks in at your starting balance +$100 and does not continue to trail.
If your account declines, the drawdown does not move down.
Example – $50K Evaluation Account
Starting Balance: $50,000
MLL: $2,000
Initial breach level:
$50,000 – $2,000 = $48,000
If you close Day 1 at $52,000:
New trailing level:
$52,000 – $2,000 = $50,000
If on any future day your account closes at or below $50,000 → breach.
Example – $100K Funded Account
Starting Balance: $100,000
MLL: $2,500
Initial breach level:
$97,500
If you close the day at $108,000, your new breach level becomes $100,100 since the drawdown locks at the starting balance +$100.
If a future day closes at or below $100,100 → account is terminated.
