Lightning Funded Accounts use an End of Day Trailing Max Drawdown, which is calculated and based on the account balance at the end of the trading day.
For more information on this type of drawdown, see our full article here.
This offers more flexibility during the trading day. Intraday fluctuations won’t affect the drawdown level, allowing you to hold positions with less risk of hitting the drawdown limit due to temporary losses.
For these accounts, we've implemented a progressive Consistency Rule that starts at 20% for your first payout and gradually increases to ensure sustained performance. This graduated approach helps us identify traders committed to long-term success and continuous improvement, rather than those relying on short-term, high-risk strategies. As you advance through multiple payouts, the increasing consistency requirements demonstrate your ability to maintain steady and reliable performance over time.
By maintaining consistent trading habits, traders can better manage risk and achieve sustainable growth—aligning with our goal of fostering a stable and profitable trading environment
