Topstep Refines Trailing Drawdown Calculation for Funded Accounts

· Topstep

Topstep announced a refinement to its trailing drawdown logic for funded accounts. Under the updated rule, the trailing limit now freezes at the original account balance once a trader banks a defined profit buffer, rather than continuing to trail intraday peaks. The firm said the change reduces accidental breaches caused by open-trade swings and better rewards consistent performance. The adjustment applies to active funded accounts immediately and is reflected in the TopstepX dashboard.
