Best Static Drawdown Prop Firms (2026)

The best static drawdown prop firm is The5ers (4.4/5): its $100K 2-step account (High Stakes Challenge): 8% / 5% target, 4% daily loss limit, 8% static max loss, 80% split, $455. FundedNext, FTMO and DayTraders follow. 61 firms offer 1059 static-drawdown accounts, 48% of all accounts we track.

With a static drawdown the max loss level is fixed at the start: a 100K account with a 10% static max loss fails only if equity drops below $90,000, however much profit you make first.

A trailing drawdown moves the floor up as your balance or equity grows, so gains shrink the room you have. Static is the most forgiving model.

How this page is built: Accounts whose maximum loss is static in our data. Firms are ranked by our score. Firms with open warnings are left out of the picks. Prices are official list prices without promo codes; fees due after passing are included.

Static vs trailing drawdown in practice

Static is best for swing and multi-day trades. Open profit never raises the floor, so a trade can give back gains without failing the account.

Check the daily limit separately. Most static accounts still have a daily loss limit, measured from the start-of-day balance or equity. It is the rule that fails most static accounts.

End-of-day trailing is the next best thing. It trails only closed balances at the end of the day, and it is the norm at futures firms. See our drawdown guide.

FAQ

Which is better, static or trailing drawdown?

Static, for almost every trader: the loss limit never moves, so profits add room instead of taking it away. Trailing models are cheaper for the firm to offer and harder to manage.

How does a static drawdown work?

The maximum loss is a fixed dollar level set from the starting balance. On a 100K account with 10% static drawdown the account fails below $90,000, regardless of any profit made before.

Which prop firm has the biggest static drawdown?

Hola Prime: its $200K 2-step account (Pro): 8% / 5% target, 4% daily loss limit, 18% static max loss, 80% split, $1,199. Most static accounts allow 6–10%.

Which static drawdown prop firms have no daily loss limit?

8 firms have accounts on this page with no daily loss limit, including The5ers, DayTraders, Moneta Funded, Lark Funding and WSFunded. Without a daily limit only the max drawdown can fail the account.
