Static drawdown prop firms
4 of the 20 active futures prop firms on our list offer at least one account with a static drawdown: a fixed dollar limit below the starting balance that never trails.
A static drawdown is a fixed loss limit. The account fails if the balance drops a set dollar amount below the starting balance, and that line never moves up as you make money. It is the easiest drawdown to plan around, and firms price it in by setting the amount lower than they would for a trailing limit. New to it? Here is what static drawdown is.
How we ranked it. Ranked by all-in price on the $50K account: the list price with the best current code applied, plus any activation fee, cheapest first. A firm with no qualifying $50K account comes after those that have one, shown at its nearest size. Ties go A to Z.

4 of the 20 active futures prop firms on our list offer at least one account with a static limit on the evaluation, the funded account or both: BluSky Trading Company, DayTraders, Phidias Prop Firm and Purdia Capital. The amounts are small. DayTraders' Static plans give $750 on a $25K account and $1,750 on $150K; Phidias' Express to Live runs $500 on $25K to $1,000 on $150K; BluSky's Static Propel gives $1,000 on $150K and $2,000 on $200K; Purdia's Static Instant is the widest at $3,000 on $100K and $5,000 on $150K, and it is an instant funding account.
Watch which stage the static limit applies to. BluSky's Launch and Propel evaluations trail end of day and only turn static once funded, while its 200K Static Orbit is the reverse. The table below shows both stages for every matching account.
