FundedNext Max Drawdown Rules: 10% Limit & Static vs Trailing Mechanics

Direct Technical Answer

FundedNext max drawdown rules use a static 8% maximum on Stellar Lite, a static 6% maximum on Stellar 1-Step, and a static 10% maximum on Stellar 2-Step, which is $10,000 on $100,000. Each floor stays static from the starting balance. The 1-Step daily loss is 3%, and the 2-Step daily loss is 5%.

Stellar Lite stops at 8% from the start balance. Stellar 1-Step stops at 6%. Stellar 2-Step stops at 10%. FundedNext max drawdown rules keep those three floors static. They do not march upward with intraday equity the way an end-of-day trail would.

8%, 6%, and 10% are three different floors

Stellar Lite is a static 8% maximum. Stellar 1-Step is a static 6% maximum. Stellar 2-Step is a static 10% maximum, $10,000 on $100,000. Buying the 10% name and then trading a Lite login is how a trader discovers the floor $2,000 sooner. Equity Guard should store the product, because 8, 6, and 10 are not interchangeable cushions.

A trailing floor would rise when equity makes a new high and would leave less room after a winning week. These three Stellar floors stay put at a fixed distance from the starting balance. Profit above the start does not shrink the published maximum. The daily loss is a separate line and can still end the account while the static floor has room.

The 5% day can bind before the 10% floor

2-Step daily loss is 5%, or $5,000 on $100,000, anchored from day-start balance with an equity check at rollover. The reset is 00:00 server time, GMT+2 or GMT+3 during daylight saving. 1-Step daily loss is 3%. You can lose the account on the daily line with the static maximum untouched. Create a Venasri account and track the daily line and the static floor as two numbers.

Phase 1 is 8% and Phase 2 is 5%. On $100,000 that is $8,000 then $5,000. Minimum trading days are five. The 6% 1-Step maximum is smaller than the 8% Phase 1 target on the 2-Step, which is why a 1-Step pass is not a shorter copy of the 2-Step job.

Scaling winners without the floor chasing you

Because the floor is static, a Stellar 2-Step account that is up $4,000 still has the original $10,000 maximum measured from the start, not a new floor parked under the high. That is the breathing room a trailing model removes. It is not permission to raise risk. The 5% day still resets every session.

Futures challenges are the exception on consistency: a 40% score applies there. Stellar 1-Step, 2-Step, and Lite CFD evaluations do not use a consistency score. The static floor is the lifetime rule on those CFD plans. The bot can manage the trade, and it cannot negotiate a static floor into a trailing one.

The floor you buy with the $549 account

The $100,000 fee is $549. The floor you are buying on Stellar 2-Step is $10,000 static, with a $5,000 day. Stellar 1-Step is the 6% floor and a 3% day. Lite is the 8% floor. Profit split is 80% to 95%, plus a 15% share of challenge-phase profits. The first payout is 21 days out, or 5 days on Stellar 1-Step.

EAs are allowed on MT4 and MT5 when the EA option is active, with a cap of 200 trades or 2,000 modifications a day, and $300,000 maximum allocation on one identical strategy. A noisy trail can fail the activity cap while the static floor is healthy. The floor is not the only way this firm ends an account.

Frequently Asked Questions: FundedNext Max Drawdown Rules: 10% Limit & Static vs Trailing Mechanics

Is FundedNext max drawdown trailing or static?

Stellar 2-Step is a static 10% from the starting balance, $10,000 on $100,000. Stellar 1-Step is a static 6%. Stellar Lite is a static 8%. These floors do not trail intraday equity. The daily loss is separate: 5% on 2-Step and 3% on 1-Step.

Can I hit the daily loss before max drawdown?

Yes. On a $100,000 2-Step account the daily line is $5,000 and the static maximum is $10,000. A single session can spend the $5,000 while the lifetime floor still has room. The reset is 00:00 server time, GMT+2 or GMT+3.

What is Stellar Lite's maximum loss?

Stellar Lite uses a static 8% maximum. On $100,000 that is $8,000, which is tighter than the 2-Step's $10,000 and wider than the 1-Step's 6%. Confirm the product before you size off the 10% headline.

Does a winning week shrink FundedNext's floor?

Not on these static plans. The maximum stays tied to the starting balance. A new equity high does not pull the floor up. The 5% or 3% daily loss still resets and can breach the account on its own.
