Drawdown limits define how far your account value can fall under your program’s rules. Check the limits for your specific account in the Upcomers dashboard before each trading session.
Daily and overall drawdown
Daily drawdown limits the fall in account equity within the program’s trading day. Some programs do not have a separate daily limit.
Overall drawdown sets the account-wide loss floor. A static floor stays fixed; a trailing floor can rise as the account reaches new highs. The calculation and any locking point depend on the program.
Why equity matters
Balance reflects your closed results and account charges. Equity also includes the current profit or loss on open positions. An open losing trade can therefore reduce your remaining drawdown room even before you close it.
A drawdown breach can end the account. The next daily reset does not restore a breached account.
Where can I check my limits?
Sign in to the Upcomers dashboard and open the account you are trading.
Check the daily drawdown level and remaining room on the account overview, together with the rules assigned to that account.
Use the rules for the correct market, program and phase. Do not use another account’s percentage or reset time.
Need the calculation?
