Frequently Asked Questions

How is drawdown calculated?

Your Maximum Drawdown limit is calculated as a static value off the beginning simulated capital deposited into your trading accounts and evaluations.

The Daily Drawdown limit is calculated as a percentage of the previous ending day’s balance.  This means that if you end higher or lower than the previous day, you will have the same % Drawdown, but a different $ amount.

The drawdown levels in SuperFunded are as follows:

  • The maximum total loss allowed is 10%.
  • The maximum daily drawdown permitted is 5%.

Our maximum drawdown is static, meaning that it remains constant regardless of your account balance fluctuations. The maximum allowable drawdown is set at 10% of the initial account balance. Consequently, your account balance or equity should never fall below 90% of the initial balance throughout your entire trading journey to ensure compliance with our rules. For instance, if you have a $100,000 account, your maximum allowable loss is $10,000. Even if your account balance increases to $110,000 due to profits, your drawdown limit remains at $90,000. Therefore, as long as your balance or equity (whichever is lower) remains above $90,000, you will not violate the overall drawdown rule.
