FunderPro Static Drawdown
The Simple Answer
FunderPro uses a static maximum drawdown across its accounts. With a static drawdown, your maximum loss level is fixed from the starting balance and does not move as your account grows, so the point at which the account fails always stays the same. FunderPro measures the maximum drawdown as a fixed percentage of the initial balance, so the level stays static as the account grows.
In short, a static drawdown gives you a fixed and predictable failure point, while a trailing drawdown moves with your balance. The daily loss limit still applies on every account alongside the maximum drawdown.
Below is a breakdown of how the FunderPro drawdown model applies across account types and stages.
Static vs Trailing Drawdown
Static drawdown, also called absolute drawdown, sets your maximum loss at a fixed level calculated from the starting balance. That floor never moves, so any profit you make increases your total cushion. Trailing drawdown, also called relative drawdown, moves the loss level up as your balance rises, which protects part of your gains but reduces the room you have left to draw down. Static is generally easier to manage because the failure point stays in one place.

Final Comments
FunderPro applies a static maximum drawdown across its accounts, which suits traders who want a fixed and predictable failure point and the full benefit of their profits.
