β οΈ Important! Turbo Drawdown Calculation
The 6% maximum total drawdown in Turbo is calculated based on the peak balance achieved throughout your trading history, not from the starting balance as in other challenges.
How it works:
- You start with a deposit of, say, $10,000
- Your balance grows to $12,000 β this becomes your new peak balance
- The drawdown limit (maximum total loss) is now calculated from $12,000: you cannot drop below $11,280 (12,000 - 6%)
- If you withdraw profits, the peak balance and drawdown limit decrease accordingly
π‘ Turbo Advantage: You start trading on a funded account immediately and can withdraw profits after meeting the minimum profitable days requirement.
π― Who is Turbo for: Experienced traders who are confident in their strategy and want to start earning right away without going through challenge phases.
When purchasing any challenge, an additional option is available to increase your profit share from 80% to 90%.
π‘ Tip: Start with a smaller account size to test your strategy before scaling up!
πΆ Step 3: Get Your Deposit and Start Trading
After successfully completing a challenge (Basic or Accelerated) or purchasing Turbo, you'll gain access to a real deposit and can withdraw 80% or more of your profits.
Depending on the challenge type you completed, risk parameters will differ:
| Funded Account Trading | After Basic | After Accelerated | Turbo (Immediate) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Profit Target | β | β | β |
| Maximum Daily Loss | 5% | 3% | - |
| Maximum Total Drawdown | 10% | 6% | 6% of peak balance |
| Minimum Profitable Days | 5 days | 5 days | 5 days |
| Min/Max Deposit | $5,000 / $200,000 | $5,000 / $200,000 | $5,000 / $25,000 |
π For more details on trading conditions (leverage, commissions, spread, funding) β see:
β οΈ Please note:
- Profitable days can be accumulated with no time limit
- After completing the Accelerated challenge, stricter drawdown limits are retained (3% daily and 6% total), requiring more conservative risk management on the funded account.
- With Turbo, you get immediate access to trading, but with a total drawdown limit of 6% from the peak balance (see detailed description above).
