Risk & Drawdown Rules
Max Daily Loss 5 Maximum Daily LossPipFarm’s Max Daily Loss rule is calculated as a percentage of the previous end-of-day (EOD) balance. By default, the daily loss limit is 3% of the previous EOD balance and is recalculated when the previous EOD balance changes. PipFarm states the EOD is calculated in the dashboard around 22:05 GMT (winter) or 21:05 GMT (US daylight savings). PipFarm also states traders may increase the daily loss limit to 4% after achieving Rank 4 in its Experience Programs. 5
Max Total Loss 6 Maximum Overall LossPipFarm offers different maximum-loss models depending on program selection. For Static Max Loss, PipFarm states the one-stage program uses a 6% Static Max Loss of starting balance, while the two-stage program uses a 9% Static Max Loss of starting balance. For the one-stage program, PipFarm also offers a Trailing Maximum Loss option which tracks a high watermark (balance-based) and is 9% of the high watermark balance (10% if Rank 2 or higher). 10
Drawdown Type Trailing (dynamic drawdown calculated from the highest equity reached) Drawdown ModelPipFarm’s public rules describe multiple drawdown frameworks, including: (1) a Static Max Loss (fixed percentage of starting balance), (2) a balance-based Trailing Max Loss (tracks the high watermark of account balance), and (3) an equity-based trailing max drawdown rule (high-watermark equity-based), as described in PipFarm’s Terms. Drawdown ModelEquity-based drawdown. For One Phase / Two Phase / Stock Traders / Bitcoin Maxi: Max Daily Drawdown is a % of the previous day’s equity snapshot (5% for One/Two/Stock; 3% for Bitcoin Maxi). Max Drawdown is a fixed % of the initial balance (10% for One/Two/Stock; 5% for Bitcoin Maxi). Meme Coin uses a 6.5% trailing drawdown.
