How FTMO drawdown works

2-Step uses STATIC drawdown

Your floor is fixed at 90% of the starting balance and never moves. As you profit you get more breathing room — a $110k account still has a $90k floor, so $20k of buffer.

1-Step uses TRAILING (intraday) drawdown

The floor trails your highest intraday equity. A big winning session followed by a losing one can breach even while you're net positive — which is exactly why a real-time, real-dollar buffer matters.

How TradeInsights tracks FTMO

Connect your MT4/MT5 account and TradeInsights shows your remaining risk budget in real dollars — how far you are from the drawdown floor and how much daily-loss room is left — updated on every sync, with rule-aware coaching that knows FTMO's limits.

  • Real-dollar drawdown buffer & daily-loss budget
  • Alerts before you breach, not after
  • Profit-target and min-trading-day progress

FTMO FAQ

What is FTMO's daily reset time?

The daily loss limit resets at 00:00 CET (Central European Time), measured from that day’s opening balance — not the initial balance.

Is FTMO drawdown static or trailing?

The 2-Step Challenge uses static drawdown (a fixed 90%-of-initial floor). The 1-Step Challenge uses trailing intraday drawdown, which is more punishing.

Does the FTMO daily loss limit include open trades?

Yes. Open floating P&L counts at any point during the day — if your floating loss hits the limit the account fails, even if the trade later recovers.

Can TradeInsights track my FTMO account automatically?

Yes — connect your MT4/MT5 account and TradeInsights computes your remaining drawdown buffer and daily-loss budget in real dollars on every sync.
