Built only from rules we verified at the source. Most people who buy a test don't pass (see why).
Profit target
Profit you need to pass.
Flex 50K: $2,500 ✓ Verified
What's this?
How much profit you must make to pass a test phase. On a $100k account a 10% target means reaching $110,000. Glossary →
Daily loss limit
Lose more than this in one day and you fail.
Flex: none ✓ Verified Easy
What's this?
The most you may lose in one trading day. With a 5% limit on $100k, dropping $5,000 in a single day fails the test, even if you're up overall. Glossary →
Max drawdown
Total loss floor. Break it once and the account ends.
Flex 50K: $1,500 EOD ✓ Verified Standard
What's this?
The total loss floor. Break it once and the account is gone. On $100k: STATIC 10% → floor stays $90,000 forever. END-OF-DAY trailing $3k → floor $97k; close a day at $102k → floor moves to $99k (intraday swings ignored). INTRADAY trailing $3k → an open trade up $2k lifts the floor to $99k immediately; if it falls back to break-even you're $1k from failing. Glossary →
Consistency rule
Caps how much profit can come from one day.
Flex challenge 40%; funded none ✓ Verified Strict on some plans
What's this?
Limits how much of your total profit can come from one day. With 40%: if you've made $5,000, your best day can be at most $2,000. Stops 'one lucky day' passes. Glossary →
Minimum trading days
Fewest trading days before you can pass/get paid.
Not verified
What's this?
The fewest days you must place trades before you can pass or get paid, even if you hit the target on day one. Glossary →
Time limit
How long you have to pass.
None ✓ Verified Easy
What's this?
How long you have to hit the target. 'Unlimited' means no deadline (some firms still require a trade every 30 to 60 days). Glossary →
News trading
Can you trade big news events?
Not verified
What's this?
Whether you can trade around big scheduled announcements (e.g. US jobs data, Fed decisions). Some firms ban trades a few minutes before/after. Glossary →
EAs / bots
Are trading bots allowed?
Not verified
What's this?
Expert Advisors: automated trading programs. Some firms allow them, some ban them or certain types (e.g. copy-trading, HFT). Glossary →
