What it means for a trader
Aqua Futures' single program models a 4% trailing, end-of-day drawdown floor (moves once per day at the close). A 2.4% daily loss limit applies, enforced as a same-day lockout rather than an account fail.
Worked example: on the $25K Beginner account, the drawdown floor sits at a hard $1,000 and a single day cannot lose more than $600 before the account fails — both figures read straight off this program’s own rule file for this size. (see the freshness note above)
