Two Ways to Trade
One Path to Success
At Pitbull Traders, we understand that different trading styles require different risk parameters. That’s why we offer two distinct drawdown types to match your unique trading approach.
End of Day
Evaluated at the close of each trading day. Intraday dips don’t count against you as long as you finish above your drawdown threshold. Perfect for swing traders who may experience volatility during the day but close positions strong.
Trailing
Follows your highest net equity throughout the day. As your account grows, your drawdown threshold rises with it. Ideal for traders who prefer to lock in gains and maintain tight control over intraday fluctuations.
Both options feature no daily loss limits, giving you the freedom to trade your strategy with minimum restrictions.
Pricing
End of Day Plans
Greater intraday flexibility with evaluation only at the market close. Perfect for traders who may experience volatility during the session but finish strong.
Trailing Plans
Protection that moves with your success. As your equity grows, your drawdown threshold rises with it, helping you lock in profits while maintaining disciplined risk management.
How Drawdown Protection Works
End of Day Drawdown
With End of Day protection, your account is only evaluated at market close. You can experience significant intraday fluctuations without violating your drawdown limit, provided you recover by the closing bell.
Example: For a $50K account with a $2,000 drawdown limit, your balance can dip to $47,000 (or lower) during the day. As long as it’s above $47,000 at market close, you remain in good standing.
Trailing Drawdown
Trailing protection dynamically adjusts with your highest achieved equity. As your account grows, your drawdown limit rises proportionally, helping you lock in profits while maintaining discipline.
Example: If your $50K account grows to $55K, your drawdown threshold would rise to $53K (assuming a $2K trailing threshold). Touching $53K at any point results in a violation.
Both options feature no daily loss limits, giving you the freedom to trade your strategy with minimum restrictions.
Drawdown Comparison
End of Day Drawdown
Your account is evaluated only at the end of each trading day. This means intraday price dips are acceptable as long as your account balance is above your drawdown threshold by market close.
Evaluation: At market close daily.
Intraday Flexibility: High, allowing for temporary dips.
Best For: Traders who may experience volatility during the session but aim to finish strong.
Risk Focus: Protecting your closing balance.
Daily Loss Limit: None
Trailing Drawdown
This protection dynamically adjusts with your highest achieved equity throughout the day. As your account grows, your drawdown limit rises proportionally. If your equity touches the trailing floor at any point, it results in a violation.
Evaluation: Continuously, based on highest net equity.
Dynamic Adjustment: Rises with new account highs.
Best For: Traders who prefer to lock in gains and maintain tight control over intraday fluctuations.
Risk Focus: Protecting new equity highs.
Daily Loss Limit: None
Pro Tip
Most traders start with End of Day plans for greater flexibility while learning, then graduate to Trailing plans to enforce stricter risk management as their strategies mature.

Choose End of Day If You:
- Often experience significant intraday drawdowns before recovering
- Trade volatile instruments or markets with wide price swings
- Hold positions through temporary adverse moves
- Execute swing trades that may temporarily go against you
- Prefer the psychological comfort of only being evaluated once daily
Choose Trailing If You:
- Practice strict risk management with tight stop losses
- Prefer to lock in profits as your account grows
- Can maintain disciplined control over intraday fluctuations
- Want to enforce good risk habits with a rising equity floor
- Trade with a higher win rate but smaller profit targets
Regardless of which option you select, Pitbull Traders provides no daily loss limits, giving you the freedom to execute your strategy without arbitrary restrictions.
