The 2-Step Speed Evaluation has a fixed Daily Drawdown Limit of 4%, based on the initial balance, and does not adjust with changes in Balance or Equity.

Example 1:

Account Size: $100,000
Daily Drawdown Limit: $4,000

Day 1:

Starting Balance/Equity: $100,000
Daily Drawdown: $4,000
Stop-Out Limit: $96,000 ($100,000 – $4,000)

Day 2:

Starting Balance/Equity: $106,000
Daily Drawdown: $4,000
Stop-Out Limit: $102,000

Example 2:

End of Day 1 Balance: $105,000
End of Day 1 Equity: $103,000
Daily Drawdown Limit: $4,000
Stop-Out Limit: $101,000 (a further $2,000 loss in Equity would breach the Limit)
