Drawdown in plain words
Each program sets a loss limit: an account that falls to it fails. How the limit moves depends on the drawdown type.
Static
2-Step, Alpha Pro, 2-Step, Alpha Pro 10%, 2-Step, Alpha Pro 6%, 2-Step, Alpha Swing
The limit is a fixed balance: the starting balance minus the maximum drawdown. Profits do not move it.
Example: Alpha Capital Group 2-Step, Alpha Pro on a $50,000 account with a $4,000 maximum drawdown. The limit is $46,000 from the first trade, and it is still $46,000 after the balance reaches $52,000. (data checked )
