Prop firms with a trailing maximum drawdown
The floor follows your account upward, so every new high raises the level at which you fail.
What each column means, in plain English
- Firm / plan
- A firm sells several plans, and the rules belong to the plan, not to the firm. One firm can appear more than once.
- Disclosure
- Our score out of 100. It measures how much a firm publishes about its own rules. It does not say whether a firm is good.
- Daily loss
- How much you can lose in one day before the account fails. The percentage means nothing on its own: read the sentence in the cell for the balance it is calculated from.
- Max loss
- The floor your account must stay above for the life of the account. A static floor is set once from your starting balance. A trailing floor follows the account up as you win.
- Consistency
- A cap on how much of your profit is allowed to come from one day or one trade. It exists to stop a single lucky win from passing you.
- Time limit
- How long you have to reach the profit target. “Unlimited” means there is no deadline, but almost every plan pairs that with an inactivity rule that closes a dormant account — that number is under the same cell.
- Not yet verified
- We could not verify this from the firm's own rules, terms or help pages. It is not a claim that the rule does not exist.

Excluded because the firm does not disclose it
These 4 plans are not on the list above, and we are not claiming they do not qualify. We simply could not verify the rule from a Tier A or Tier B source. Most comparison sites would silently drop these, or worse, count them as a "No".

What this rule actually does
Trailing drawdown is not automatically worse — it is often paired with cheaper entry or higher splits. What matters is whether it trails end-of-day or intraday, and whether it stops trailing once it reaches your initial balance. Both details are recorded here.
