Bulenox drawdown rules explained (2026)

How the Bulenox drawdown floor moves

The floor trails your highest equity in real time, including unrealized profit. A trade that runs up and then reverses can drag the floor up and then stop you out on the way back.

This is the rule that decides whether a Bulenox account survives, more than the profit target. Read it as a moving line on your balance chart: you are only ever trading the distance between current equity and that line.

What breaches Bulenox accounts most often

Open profit that you do not bank still raises the floor, which is the single most common way funded futures accounts are lost.

Combine that with the payout rules: the consistency requirement is in force — None on Qualification; plan-dependent on Master.

A sizing tactic that fits intraday trailing drawdown

Use tight profit targets or trailing stops of your own so that peak open equity and realized equity stay close together until the drawdown locks.

Rule of thumb used by traders who stay funded: risk no more than 10–15% of your remaining drawdown distance on any single trade, and recalculate after every session.

• Calculate remaining distance to the floor before each session
• Risk 10–15% of that distance per trade, not a fixed dollar amount
• Bank partial profits so peak equity stays close to realized balance
