Lucid Trading Drawdown Calculator
Lucid Trading runs EOD trailing drawdown across its plans: your max-loss floor moves up only at session close, based on your end-of-day balance — intraday spikes don’t tighten the wall mid-session. This calculator covers LucidPro (1-step evaluation) and LucidFlex account sizes.
Pick your plan and size, enter your current balance and your highest end-of-day balance, and see your headroom to the floor.
Inputs
Defaults to account starting balance if blank.
The highest balance you ended any session at.
Results
Trails your highest end-of-day balance.
100% of max drawdown remaining
Distance from current balance to profit target
LucidDirect (instant funded) uses the LucidScale dynamic daily-loss mechanic, which this snapshot calculator does not model — see the Lucid review for how LucidScale works. Verify current plan numbers on Lucid’s site.
Track this live, not by snapshot.
Connect your broker once and TradersForge updates your Lucid Trading drawdown headroom on every fill — with warnings before you approach the line, across every account you run.
FAQ
- How does Lucid’s EOD trailing drawdown work?
- Your trailing max-loss floor updates once per trading day at session close. If you finish a day at a new end-of-day equity high, the floor moves up by the same amount for the next session; intraday highs you give back before the close don’t move it. When your balance touches the floor, the account is breached.
- Does Lucid have a daily loss limit?
- LucidPro and LucidFlex evaluations don’t carry a classic fixed daily loss limit — the trailing floor is the main constraint (LucidFlex instead applies a 50% consistency requirement in evaluation). LucidDirect is different: its LucidScale mechanic imposes a dynamic daily loss limit that scales with account performance. Verify the exact terms for your plan on Lucid’s site.
- What is LucidScale?
- LucidScale is the dynamic daily-loss mechanic on LucidDirect instant-funded accounts: the daily loss allowance adjusts with your account’s balance rather than staying fixed. Because it depends on your running balance, a static snapshot calculator can’t model it well — live tracking against your actual account is the reliable way to watch it.
- Can I track my Lucid account automatically?
- Yes — TradersForge’s prop tracker supports Lucid’s EOD trailing drawdown across plan variants. Connect your Tradovate or NinjaTrader account and it computes your distance to the trailing floor in real time from actual fills, with warnings as you approach it. LucidScale support on Direct is partial; verify its dynamic daily-loss math against your account until full parity ships.
