Trailing Drawdown Simulator

Enter a starting balance, a drawdown amount, and a sequence of trade results. The simulator shows the balance, high-water mark, floor, remaining cushion, and whether the sequence breaches.

Actual firm rules can differ. Traders should review the firm's published rules and Prop Firm Store research. This page does not describe a specific firm's drawdown.

What the three models do

Intraday trailing raises the floor as soon as a new closed trade makes a higher balance. End-of-day trailing raises the floor only on steps you mark as the end of the day. Static keeps the floor where it started.

A breach is recorded when the balance is equal to or below the floor after that step. The floor never moves down. The example sequence of +500, +800, −300, and +1000 is only a demonstration.
