Trailing drawdown explained: intraday vs end-of-day, and your real cushion

A risk plan for prop firm accounts: the risk ladder and cutting size after losses
Risking "1% of the account" means nothing when the real capital is the cushion to the drawdown. The risk ladder decides size before the session, so you do not decide it in the heat of the moment.
The prop firm consistency rule: how it is calculated and how to plan your payout
Best day divided by total profit: that is the rule that delays a payout after one big day. The formula, a minimum-profit table and how to track it every session.

How to keep a futures trading journal (and what to measure)
What to log on every trade, what actually to measure (expectancy, profit factor, R, drawdown) and a 5-minute daily review routine you will not abandon.
