For Evaluation, Express, and Stellar 2-Step:

Traders are allowed to lose 5% of their initial account balance on any given day as their daily drawdown. If your initial account balance is $100,000, then 5% of the amount is $5000. At any point in a day, if the (running + closed) loss exceeds $5000 it will be considered a daily drawdown rule violation.

For Stellar 1-Step:

Traders are allowed to lose 3% of their initial account balance on any given day as their daily drawdown in the Stellar 1-Step account. If your initial account balance is $100,000, then 3% of the amount is $3000. At any point in a day, if the (running + closed) loss exceeds $3000, it will be considered a daily drawdown rule violation.

For Stellar Lite:

In the Stellar Lite account, traders are permitted to lose a daily drawdown of 4% from their initial account balance. For instance, with an initial balance of $50,000, this equates to $2000. If the total loss (running + closed) exceed this limit at any point during a day, it will be considered as a violation of the daily drawdown rule
