This calculator is based on the rule set reviewed on 2026-03-21.
Apex Trader Funding provides leverage on funded accounts, but using too much leverage relative to your account size is a fast path to breaching drawdown limits. This calculator shows how much margin a position requires and how many lots you can safely open at your leverage level.
Who should use this calculator
Best for leveraged traders who need to know whether a position is even feasible before the order is placed.
Where this tool can mislead you
Enough free margin does not mean the trade is rule-safe. Margin availability and drawdown safety are different constraints.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Apex Trader Funding's daily loss limit?
Apex Trader Funding's daily loss limit is not enforced as a percentage (check dollar limits per account size). For the $25,000 account, the daily limit is based on the trailing drawdown floor.
What drawdown type does Apex Trader Funding use?
Apex Trader Funding uses trailing intraday (floor moves with every tick). The floor moves up in real-time as your equity reaches new highs during the session.
What leverage does Apex Trader Funding offer?
Apex Trader Funding's leverage depends on the instrument and account type. Forex pairs typically get 1:30 to 1:100 leverage. Use this calculator with your specific leverage to see exact margin requirements for any position size.
How is margin calculated in forex?
Margin = (Lots x Contract Size x Price) / Leverage. For example, 1 lot of EUR/USD at 1.0800 with 1:30 leverage requires (1 x 100,000 x 1.0800) / 30 = $3,600 margin. Higher leverage means less margin required but more risk exposure.
