Trailing Drawdown

Also known as: trailing max drawdown

A maximum-drawdown limit that follows your highest balance upward, locking in some of your gains.

How it works

With a 6% trailing drawdown, if your $100,000 account rises to $106,000, the loss limit trails up to $99,640 (6% below the new peak). Once you’re in profit, the trail typically stops at the starting balance + profit.

At WICK FUNDED

WICK FUNDED uses STATIC (balance-based) max drawdown, not trailing. The floor is fixed from your initial balance on every phase and never trails your equity up. Static vs trailing is explained on each challenge page.
