Lock Upon Payout is enabled by default on all funded accounts.
When a full payout is requested and approved, your Maximum Drawdown will lock at your account’s original starting balance.
Example:
You have a $100,000 funded account and request a payout that leaves your account balance at $100,500.
Once the payout is approved:
Your Maximum Drawdown level locks at $100,000
Your remaining drawdown buffer is $500
If your account equity falls below $100,000, the account will breach
Important: Before requesting a payout, make sure you understand how much drawdown buffer will remain afterward. Withdrawing too much profit can leave your account very close to its Maximum Drawdown level, meaning even a small trading loss or market fluctuation could result in a breach.
*The payout screen does not currently calculate or warn you of your remaining drawdown buffer, so traders are responsible for considering this before selecting their withdrawal amount.
