How does your Max Drawdown (Static) work?

If on your Challenge/Scaling plan you can see mentioned that your Max Drawdown is Static, then this means your minimum demo account balance (visible also on your Dashboard) will be set at the beginning of your Challenge and will never change.

Example:

You start your Challenge with $100,000 and a Max Drawdown (Static) of $5,000. This means that on your Dashboard you can see your Max Drawdown Limit at $95,000. Your equity must not drop below this amount at any time throughout your trading activity, otherwise, your demo account shall be considered breached.

No matter how much profit you make, your Max Drawdown Limit will never move from $95,000, as it would on the other Challenges/Scaling Plans which have a trailing drawdown.
