How to read these rules
- Daily loss limit — breaching it on any day usually ends the evaluation, even if the account is in profit overall.
- Trailing drawdown follows your highest balance (or end-of-day balance) up; a static limit stays fixed from the starting balance. Trailing is stricter after a winning run.
- Profit split applies to funded-account profits; check the payout schedule, minimums and any consistency rule before relying on it.
- Run the numbers with the Trade Before You Trade calculator: size each position from the firm’s loss limits, not from conviction.
About this data. Every rule and price is taken from the firm's own website on the date shown, with a link to the page. Firms change their rules often — confirm on the official page before you pay. “Not published” means we could not find the value on an official page; we never estimate it. Order is by your filters or alphabetical, never by commission. Prop-firm evaluations are paid products; most traders do not pass, and a funded account is not a guarantee of income.
