If account is going maximum drawdown then what is the best idea to short out this panic situation as well as what is next step to do for continue in market. 

If your account is hitting maximum drawdown, take these immediate steps:

  • Stop Trading: Halt all activity to prevent further emotional, "panic-driven" losses.

  • Analyze the Cause: Identify if the failure is due to strategy flaws, poor risk management, or market conditions.

  • Reduce Risk: If you return, drastically lower your position size. Never risk more than you can afford to lose.

  • Test and Refine: Do not re-enter until you have a clearly tested plan that incorporates proper money management.

Ultimately, if you lack risk management, you are gambling. Only professional risk control will keep you in the market long-term.
