The rule that kills the most funded accounts: on intraday-trailing plans the liquidation threshold follows your highest open-trade equity — a winner you let retrace still drags the threshold up behind you. Replay your trades and watch it move.
Threshold trails the highest OPEN-trade equity peak — unrealized highs count, and it never retreats.
Breach is checked on closed balance — adverse excursion inside a trade can liquidate sooner. Everything stays in your browser. Firm mechanics differ and change; verify against your firm's documentation.
The classic trap(hit ▶ above to load it): you're up $900 unrealized, take only $25 of it, and the threshold has already ratcheted $900 closer — then a scratch and one ordinary loss later you're a few hundred dollars from liquidation without ever taking a big hit. That's why "I never closed a losing trade, why am I liquidated?" is the most-asked question in futures prop forums.
The defense is mechanical, not motivational: take profits at structure instead of letting winners round-trip, and size with the risk panel so no single stop-out eats a third of your remaining distance. During the session, the daily loss tracker keeps the day from compounding.
Educational tool — arithmetic on the numbers you enter, not financial advice. Drawdown mechanics differ by firm and plan (intraday vs end-of-day vs static, freeze levels, what counts as equity) and rules change; this replayer is a model, so always verify behavior against your firm's own documentation and dashboard. Futures trading involves substantial risk of loss.
The threshold punishes giving winners back. ImprintTrader catches the habit — every trade scored against your written management rules, including how you take profits.
