Calculate the dollar figures

Max / total drawdown in dollars

$10,000.00

A 10% total drawdown on $100,000.00 is about this much. Equity below this level typically breaches the account.

Daily loss limit in dollars

$5,000.00

A 5% daily loss limit on $100,000.00 is about this much loss in a single day.

These are simple percentage-of-account figures. Real prop-firm rules vary: drawdown can be static or trailing, measured on balance or equity, and the starting point may differ. Daily limits may reset at a specific server time. This tool does not know any firm’s exact method — read the rules for the specific product before relying on any number here.

The exact drawdown method differs by firm and product. Compare how every firm defines drawdown side by side, then confirm the figures on the firm’s own pages before buying.
