Excluded because the firm does not disclose it

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.
