What is the Maximum Daily Drawdown?

The Maximum Daily Drawdown for BEM Classic – Normal is 4.5% of the Initial Balance. It represents the maximum amount your account may lose within a single trading day before it is considered breached.
 

This limit is recalculated daily at 22:00 UTC using the following rule:
 

 

Maximum Daily Drawdown = Higher of Equity or Balance at 22:00 UTC − 4.5% of Initial Balance

 

 

If your equity or balance falls below this limit at any time after it is set, the account is considered breached and will be terminated.
 

 

Note: The calculation includes open positions, closed trades, commissions, and swap fees.
 




Example:

  • Initial Balance: $10,000
  • Higher of Equity/Balance at 22:00 UTC: $10,356
  • 4.5% of Initial Balance: $450
  • Daily Drawdown: $10,356 − $450 = $9,906


If your equity or balance drops below $9,906 at any time after the limit is set, the account will be breached.
