Quantitative Risk Framework

drawdown calculus | trailing floors | consistency coefficients

Max Drawdown (2-Step/1-Step)
8% static based on initial balance. Daily reset 4% (2-Step) / 3% (1-Step). Instant: Trailing 5% + 3% daily.

Trailing Loss (1-Step & Instant)
1-Step: floor = peak balance - 6%. Instant: peak - 5%. Never moves down. Protection after growth.

Consistency Rules
1-Step: no day >50% of total profit. Instant: no day >20% cumulative profit. Avoids one-lucky-day.

2-minute holding rule
Majority of trades >2 min. Anti-scalping. Swing trades welcome. (applies across all plans).

FAQ | Synthetic Prop Math

What's daily drawdown example?
If start day equity = $10,000 and daily limit 4% ($400), hitting $9,600 triggers stop. Max drawdown (8%): equity can't go below $9,200 ever.

Trailing loss mechanism (1-Step)?
Balance grows to $10,800 → floor = $10,800 - 6% = $10,152. Even above initial, breach if drop below floor.

Consistency rule example
Total profit $2000, largest day profit $1100 -> 55% -> violation. Keep daily profit proportion ≤50% for 1-step.
