To calculate the maximum unrealized gains in your account, follow the steps below. You will need the following values:
- Account Value: The current total balance in your account.
- Max Trailing Drawdown: This is accessible under the “Equity” button.
- Evaluation’s Drawdown Value: Refer to the drawdown value specific to your evaluation on the products page.
Step 1: Calculate the Liquidation Threshold
Start by determining the Liquidation Threshold using the following formula:
Account Value−Max Trailing Drawdown=Liquidation Threshold
Example Calculation: If your Account Value is $157,699.88 and Max Trailing Drawdown is $4,684.35:
157,699.88−4,684.35=153,015.53
So, your Liquidation Threshold is $153,015.53.
Step 2: Determine Max Unrealized Value
Once you have the Liquidation Threshold, add the Evaluation’s Trailing Drawdown value to calculate the Max Unrealized Value:
Liquidation Threshold+Evaluation’s Trailing Drawdown Value=Max Unrealized Value
Example Calculation: Using the Liquidation Threshold from Step 1 ($153,015.53) and an Evaluation’s Trailing Drawdown value of $5,000:
153,015.53+5,000=158,015.53
This gives a Max Unrealized Value of $158,015.53.
