▶Blueberry Funded Max Loss Limit: The Trailing Lock Trap — 45s explainer, decoded by FundedWiki
1-Step 6% and 2-Step 10% are STATIC, measured from the initial account size — the floor never moves. Instant Lite (4%) and Elite (10%) use a 'trailing-lock' that trails up to the starting balance, then locks permanently. Breach is on either equity or balance touching the floor.
The gotcha
On Instant accounts a floating-equity spike can put the daily limit below the locked max-DD, breaching you on a close even with a small profit (per Blueberry's own examples).
Breaching this voids the account outright — the evaluation or funded account is terminated and any unrealised profit is forfeited. It's the most severe class of breach.
| oneStep | 6% STATIC |
| twoStep | 10% STATIC |
| instantLite | 4% TRAILING_LOCK |
| instantElite | 10% TRAILING_LOCK |
