X Pips's plans state a maximum drawdown of 6% to 10% of the account size (drawdown type: static and trailing), across 31 plans. A consistency rule applies: funded stage only: no single trade or day above 20% of the payout request (after split); excess profit is removed, not a breach. News trading is conditional: allowed in evaluation; on funded accounts no new trades from 5 minutes before to 5 minutes after high-impact news, and profit from trades closing in that window is removed.
