What is Maven Trading's maximum drawdown rule?

2-Step is 8% STATIC (from the starting balance) and 3-Step is 3% static. 1-Step (5%) and Instant (3%) use a TRAILING drawdown from your highest EQUITY, which then locks. Watch out: The trailing models trail from highest equity (not balance) — unrealized profit raises your floor and can stop you out on a pullback while you're still in overall profit.
