Lightning and Bolt use a 6% TRAILING max-DD that rises with you until equity reaches +6%, then locks permanently at the initial balance (Lightning trails on balance, Bolt on equity including floating profit). Dual Step (7% challenge / 8% funded) and Nexus (8%) are STATIC, fixed to the initial balance.
The gotcha
On Lightning/Bolt, a pullback from a floating-profit peak can breach you before the floor locks at breakeven.
