The Maximum Loss Limit (MLL), also known as the EOD trailing drawdown, is the maximum amount your account can lose overall. On Elite ACCESS Static it applies to the funded phase and trails on an end-of-day (EOD) basis. During the evaluation the drawdown is static instead (see the evaluation phase article).
Funded drawdown per account size
Account size | Funded drawdown |
$25,000 | $1,000 (4.00%) |
$50,000 | $2,000 (4.00%) |
$100,000 | $3,000 (3.00%) |
$150,000 | $3,500 (~2.33%) |
How the trailing works
Your breach level is active from the moment the funded account starts: starting balance minus your max drawdown (e.g. $50,000 − $2,000 = $48,000).
It trails upward as your account reaches new highs.
It moves up only at the end of the day, based on your closing balance. Intraday highs don't move it.
It does not move down if your balance decreases.
The breach level is checked in real time. If your equity goes at or below it at any moment, the account is breached.
Example: how the level moves
Step | Amount |
Starting balance | $50,000 |
Initial breach level | $48,000 |
Day 1: You close the day at | $51,000 |
New breach level | $49,000 |
Next day: You close the day at $52,100 or higher | Breach level locks at $50,100 |
Example: intraday dip
Step | Amount |
Breach level | $48,000 |
Your equity drops during the day to | $47,500 |
Result | Breached, even if the day would have closed at $48,500 |
Drawdown lock level
Once your account reaches a certain level, the trailing drawdown locks at breakeven + $100:
Account size | Lock level |
$25,000 | $25,100 |
$50,000 | $50,100 |
$100,000 | $100,100 |
$150,000 | $150,100 |
After this point the drawdown no longer trails upward, and your account cannot fall below this locked level.
Important rules
The breach level is updated at the end of the day, based on your closing balance.
The breach level is checked in real time. If your equity goes at or below it at any moment, the account is breached.
Applies to the funded account. The evaluation uses a static drawdown instead.
Includes both realized and unrealized performance (equity).
Hard breach: if your account equity goes at or below the breach level at any time, the account is terminated and becomes ineligible for funding or payouts.
