Important points to note when Requesting a Payout from a Nitro Pro (Simulated Funded) Account:

  • Impact of Less Than 6% Profit on Overall Trailing Drawdown Limit:

Calculation: If the simulated profit is below 6%, the trailing drawdown limit is 6% of the highest recorded balance.

Example 1: (Less Than 6% Profit)

Account Size: $100,000
Current Simulated Profit: 4% ($4,000)
Highest Recorded Balance: $105,000
Trailing Drawdown Calculation: $105,000 – (6% of $105,000) = $98,700

Scenario 1: Full Withdrawal of Simulated Profits

Withdrawal Amount: $4,000
Remaining Daily Limit: $100,000 (balance reset) – $98,700 = $1,300

Scenario 2: Partial Withdrawal of Simulated Profits

Withdrawal Amount: $2,000
Available Drawdown: $3,300

  • Effect of Simulated Profit of 6% and above on Overall Trailing Drawdown Limit:

Calculation: If the simulated profit is 6% or higher, the trailing drawdown limit is fixed at the initial balance.

Example 2: (6% Profit Achieved)

Account Size: $100,000
Current Simulated Profit: 6% ($6,000)
Trailing Drawdown Fixed at Initial Balance: $100,000

Scenario 1: Full Withdrawal of Simulated Profits

Withdrawal Amount: $6,000
Remaining Daily Limit: $100,000 (balance reset) – $100,000 (fixed limit) = $0
Result: Breach of account due to no remaining drawdown limit.

Scenario 2: Partial Withdrawal of Simulated Profits

Withdrawal Amount: $4,000 Instead of $6,000
Available Drawdown: $2,000 ($106,000 – $104,000)
Result: No breach of account and the remaining Overall Drawdown Limit becomes $2,000 ($102,000 – $100,000)
