Take Profit Trader — trailing drawdown — 150k
Rules read from Take Profit Trader's own documentation on 2026-07-22 · rules/take-profit-trader
Take Profit Trader's The Test models its maximum drawdown as a trailing floor at the 150k account size: the threshold tracks the highest end-of-day closed balance and never moves back down. The floor stops trailing once it locks; the corpus records a lock condition for this program.
