The trading journal built for Apex Trader Funding
Zentrade tracks the Apex trailing drawdown floor in real time — the metric that catches most traders off guard when their equity peaks and then retraces.
Apex Trader Funding evaluation rules
The rules that determine whether you pass the Apex evaluation — and how Zentrade tracks each one.
What Zentrade tracks for your Apex account
The trailing drawdown is the hardest rule to track manually because it changes every time your equity hits a new high. Zentrade does it automatically.
- Trailing drawdown floor — recalculated live after every trade
- Daily P&L tracker with daily loss limit alert per account size
- Profit target progress bar (9% goal)
- Equity curve with trailing drawdown floor overlay
- Import trades from Rithmic, Tradovate, NinjaTrader via CSV
- Revenge trading detection — critical for no-consistency-rule accounts
Why traders fail Apex (and how to avoid it)
Equity spikes to a new high, trailing floor moves up — then a normal retracement kills the account
Zentrade shows the live trailing floor so you always know your real buffer, not just your current P&L
Hit the daily loss limit after a news event and fail without knowing the exact threshold for your account size
Daily loss alert shows the exact dollar limit for your Apex plan ($500 on $25K, $2,000 on $100K, etc.)
No consistency rule creates overconfidence — traders take oversized risk on a winning streak
Equity curve and position size history show when you're deviating from your normal risk profile
Pass the evaluation but lose the funded account because trading habits change under pressure
Same dashboard for evaluation and funded account — no behavior change required
