How much can I lose today on TradeDay?

Where your drawdown floor is now, and how much you can still lose today before a rule ends the day or the account.

Account

Balance now ($)

Highest balance so far ($)

Today's P/L so far ($)

Negative if you're down today.

Drawdown floor

$24,900

Room above the floor

$700

Daily loss limit

None

The most you can lose today is $700, set by the drawdown floor. Stop well before it: one full-size loss shouldn't be able to take it all.

Consistency rule check

Many firms cap your best day as a share of your total profit before you can pass or get paid.

Best day's profit ($)

Total profit ($)

Firm's rule (%)

Your best day is 63% of your profit — over the 30% rule. You need about $2,600 more profit on other days (without a bigger best day).
