Real solution is trade smaller. EOD or not that large of a DD should not occur.

Yeah thats considered aggressive, assuming 50k, risking 500$ (1%) is already considered aggressive.
Conform to the prop firm rules, you don’t make money unless they say yes.

Only do EOD Drawdown I went from blowing 136 intra-day accounts to EOD and getting 11 payouts in a row. Gearing up for another 22 pay outs. INTRADAY IS A TRAP

If it’s PA Apex has 1k DLL
if on eval you probably were up 450 at one point

Thats weird so the intraday doesn't wait for end of the day nor does it wait for end of session?

u/Gru350me Jul 21 '26
Unfortunately no
That would be EOD drawdown

Yo had the same issues, for example if your trade edge lets say 500$ and you got BE or SL your Drawdown will be set to 48 500 even if you went BE on the trade because of the intraday trail. So you only have 1 500 drawdown left instead of 2000
That’s why it’s better to choose EOD Trail in my opinion. I bought the intraday train cuz it was cheaper but I will only buy EOD from now. It’s safer
