Max Drawdown is the biggest loss your account is allowed to take before it is breached. On an Instant Account, it trails on an intraday basis: the floor follows your highest equity point reached during the trading day, including open unrealised profit, not just your end of day balance.
Example: on a $50,000 account, if your equity climbs to $53,000 intraday, your drawdown floor will trail up to 50,500 and will stay there even if equity falls below $53,000 later on.
