PROP FIRM GUIDE • UPDATED SEPTEMBER 2026

Prop Firms With Static Drawdown (No Trailing Drawdown) in 2026

A static drawdown is measured from your starting balance and never moves up as you profit — the opposite of a trailing drawdown that chases your equity high and can breach you on a giveback. Every firm below publishes at least one program with a static, non-trailing maximum drawdown, ranked by tier and Trustpilot rating.

Frequently asked questions

What is a static drawdown?

A static (fixed) maximum drawdown is a hard floor calculated from your starting balance — for example 10% of a $100k account gives a permanent $90k breach line. It does not follow your profit, so every dollar you earn becomes real buffer. A trailing drawdown does the opposite: it ratchets up behind your balance or equity high, which means a trade that runs to +$3,000 and comes back can breach you even though your account never went below its starting balance.

Which firms have no trailing drawdown?

The firms in the table above all sell at least one static-drawdown program, but several of them also sell trailing-drawdown models alongside it — the drawdown style is set by the specific challenge you buy, not by the firm as a whole. Open the firm page and check the max-drawdown line for the exact model you are about to purchase; the rule text there names the drawdown type per program.
