Quick answer: TTT Markets currently offers a genuine $500,000 account on two routes: 1-Step Standard for $3,499 and 2-Step Standard for $3,299. The 1-Step target is 10%; the 2-Step targets are 8% and 5%. On 1-Step Standard, the 4% daily limit trails from the highest equity point and the 8% overall limit trails upward with new account highs. On 2-Step Standard, daily drawdown is 4% and overall drawdown is a static 8% of initial balance. The TTT Markets coupon code BRIDGE gives 12.5% off eligible purchases, which would reduce the base 1-Step fee to approximately $3,061.63 and the base 2-Step fee to approximately $2,886.63.

Reviewed and fact-checked for the 2026 TTT Markets account-size series. This analysis is educational, not financial advice. Prop-firm accounts use simulated environments, and buying an evaluation never guarantees funding or a payout.
The $500K tier is the largest current Standard evaluation size shown by TTT Markets. It is not offered under 1-Step Lite, 2-Step Lite, Instant Funding or Subscription. It is also not a Pro account: Pro begins at $750K according to the current Prop Firm Bridge record. That leaves exactly two genuine $500K choices—1-Step Standard and 2-Step Standard. Keeping those boundaries clear matters for search accuracy because combining rules from smaller Lite accounts or Instant Funding would produce a misleading comparison.
Our honest verdict is that the 2-Step Standard is the stronger default for most disciplined traders. It costs $200 less before discounts, uses lower staged targets, starts funded payouts at a stronger recorded split, and its 8% maximum drawdown is explicitly described by the current 2-Step help page as fixed to the initial balance. The 1-Step route is faster in phase count but asks for $50,000 of evaluation profit in one phase and has a longer first-withdrawal timetable. A trader should choose 1-Step only when the single-phase structure is genuinely worth the extra fee and higher target—not because the $500K label creates emotional urgency.
Neither choice turns $500,000 into personal cash. It is a simulated account balance governed by loss limits, behavior rules and payout reviews. The useful economic asset is the permitted risk budget: $20,000 daily and $40,000 overall under base limits, or $25,000 daily and $50,000 overall if the eligible +20% Drawdown Upgrade is selected. Even those figures are hard ceilings, not sensible trade budgets.

TTT Markets’ dedicated 1-Step Standard rules confirm that the daily and overall limits are trailing. The daily drawdown is 4% from the highest equity point. On a fresh $500,000 account, the initial dollar allowance is $20,000, but a higher floating-equity peak can raise the daily reference and tighten the effective floor. Traders must therefore monitor live equity, not only closed balance.
The overall drawdown is 8% and trails upward with new account highs. Its initial dollar distance is $40,000, producing an initial floor of $460,000. When the account establishes a higher qualifying high, the floor moves upward according to the applicable rule. It is not a permanent static $460,000 threshold. This makes profit protection, floating-equity monitoring and conservative sizing essential.
The optional Drawdown Upgrade, where eligible, increases the limits to 5% daily and 10% overall for +20% of the evaluation fee, but it does not convert the mechanics into a static model. Keep 1-Step distinct from 2-Step: the current 2-Step overall drawdown is static at 8% of initial balance.
The 1-Step route asks the trader to produce $50,000, equal to 10% of the starting balance, without breaching daily, maximum or behavior rules. There is no second verification phase. That sounds faster, but one phase is not automatically easier: the required profit is twice the standard $25,000 overall-loss allowance a cautious trader might voluntarily impose, and larger position sizes can attract closer review when the pattern looks like all-in challenge chasing.
The initial 4% daily distance is $20,000, and it trails from the highest equity point under the verified 1-Step Standard rule. It must not be interpreted as permission to lose $20,000 every day because a higher intraday equity peak can lift the reference and reduce remaining room. The 8% overall drawdown also trails with new account highs, beginning with a $40,000 distance. A professional internal limit between $1,250 and $2,500 per day—0.25% to 0.50%—creates far more recovery capacity.
The first 1-Step withdrawal is not immediate. TTT’s dedicated rule requires at least 21 calendar days from the first trade and 14 separate trading days. Requests submitted before Monday 22:00 GMT are typically processed Wednesday. The verified split is 50% on the first withdrawal, 70% on the second and 80% on subsequent withdrawals. That means passing the evaluation quickly does not erase funded-stage timing, valid-day and compliance requirements.
Phase 1 requires $40,000, or 8%. Phase 2 begins from a reset $500,000 balance and requires $25,000, or 5%. The sum is $65,000, but that figure is not a single-account compounding target: each stage is assessed separately. The lower second target is a confirmation test.
The base maximum loss is $40,000, fixed to the initial balance according to the current official 2-Step drawdown page. Daily drawdown is 4% and is calculated from whichever is higher at the start of the day—balance or equity. Floating profit held across the calculation time may raise the reference point, so traders must understand the server reset and should not assume that a closed-balance-only spreadsheet captures every risk.
The first withdrawal becomes available 14 calendar days after the first funded trade, and subsequent withdrawals are available every 14 days. Requests before Monday 10 PM GMT are typically processed Wednesday. The current PFB record lists a 70% first split and 80% on subsequent approved withdrawals; confirm the purchased order because marketing pages sometimes summarize only an “up to” split.
Use BRIDGE in the coupon field through the TTT Markets checkout link. On an eligible base $3,499 1-Step order, 12.5% equals $437.38, leaving approximately $3,061.63. On an eligible base $3,299 2-Step order, 12.5% equals $412.38, leaving approximately $2,886.63. Checkout rounding can differ by one cent, and taxes or currency conversion can change the charged total.
Do not assume BRIDGE stacks with a temporary sitewide promotion. TTT’s public pages have displayed different seasonal banner codes at different crawl times, including SPRING25 on the shop while older product pages retained other campaign banners. That is a source-sync issue, not evidence that multiple coupons can be combined. Compare the live final total: use whichever eligible offer produces the better confirmed price. BRIDGE is the PFB-listed 12.5% code, but a temporary promotion may occasionally be larger.
| Configuration | 1-Step total before code | Illustrative total if BRIDGE applies to entire eligible order | 2-Step total before code | Illustrative total if BRIDGE applies to entire eligible order |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Base only | $3,499.00 | $3,061.63 | $3,299.00 | $2,886.63 |
| +20% Drawdown Upgrade | $4,198.80 | $3,673.95 | $3,958.80 | $3,463.95 |
| +30% Account Protection | $4,548.70 | $3,980.11 | $4,288.70 | $3,752.61 |
| Both, if checkout permits | $5,248.50 | $4,592.44 | $4,948.50 | $4,329.94 |
These add-on totals are arithmetic illustrations, not a promise that a coupon discounts add-on charges. The official Drawdown Upgrade costs +20%; Account Protection costs +30%. Checkout determines eligibility, stacking and the final taxable amount.
The eligible upgrade raises daily drawdown from 4% to 5% and overall drawdown from 8% to 10%. On $500K, that changes the headline daily boundary from $20,000 to $25,000 and the overall boundary from $40,000 to $50,000. The extra $10,000 overall allowance is meaningful, but it should reduce breach probability rather than justify larger trade risk.
For 1-Step, the upgrade adds $699.80 to the $3,499 base fee. For 2-Step, it adds $659.80 to the $3,299 fee. A trader risking 0.25% per trade already has 32 full-loss units inside an 8% envelope; paying more for 10% may be unnecessary. A swing trader facing normal gap and floating-equity variance may value it more.
Account Protection adds 30% of the evaluation fee. It covers eligible drawdown breaches during the evaluation and may let a trader reclaim the evaluation for 40% of the original fee calculated before discounts, provided the claim is made within seven days. It does not cover prohibited strategies, fraud, account sharing, KYC breaches, gambling-style risk or consistency violations.
On a $500K order the 30% charge is $1,049.70 for 1-Step or $989.70 for 2-Step. The potential reclaim price is based on 40% of the original evaluation fee: $1,399.60 for 1-Step and $1,319.60 for 2-Step. Whether that economics is attractive depends on the trader’s documented pass rate—not on fear at checkout.
TTT’s buyback is separate from evaluation Account Protection. The official help article says eligible breached funded 1-Step and 2-Step accounts can be reinstated at 2% of account size, subject to internal review. For $500K, that is $10,000. Instant Funding is excluded.
A $10,000 buyback is not automatically economical. Compare it with the cost and probability of passing a fresh evaluation, the cause of the breach, the trader’s recent process quality and any changed rules. If a prohibited method caused the breach, approval is not promised. A buyback restores balance; it does not repair undisciplined behavior.
The official 2-Step scaling page says traders who achieve 10% profit for three consecutive months can have the account balance doubled at no additional cost. TTT’s general How It Works page applies the same headline concept to 1-Step and 2-Step. Starting at $500K makes the next theoretical tier $1M, but total allocation, risk review and account agreement govern what is actually issued.
Scaling should not be treated as a three-month race. Ten percent on $500K is $50,000 per qualifying month. A trader who increases risk to force the metric may lose both the account and scaling eligibility. The correct question is whether the existing strategy can generate the requirement inside normal risk limits.

A profit split applies to approved profit, not the nominal account size. An 80% split does not mean the trader receives $400,000 from a $500K account. If approved profit is $10,000, an 80% trader share is $8,000. General TTT payout policy lists a $100 minimum and no current maximum, although program-specific conditions and compliance review still apply.
| Risk per trade | Dollar risk | Full losses to equal 4% daily limit | Full losses to equal 8% overall limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| 0.10% | $500.00 | 40.0 | 80.0 |
| 0.15% | $750.00 | 26.7 | 53.3 |
| 0.20% | $1,000.00 | 20.0 | 40.0 |
| 0.25% | $1,250.00 | 16.0 | 32.0 |
| 0.30% | $1,500.00 | 13.3 | 26.7 |
| 0.40% | $2,000.00 | 10.0 | 20.0 |
| 0.50% | $2,500.00 | 8.0 | 16.0 |
| 1.00% | $5,000.00 | 4.0 | 8.0 |
The mathematical number of losses is not an operating recommendation because spreads, commission, slippage and correlated positions can increase effective exposure. For most planned evaluations, 0.10% to 0.25% per setup is easier to sustain than 0.50% to 1%. At 0.25%, one loss is $1,250; a 2R winner is $2,500. Twenty net R are required to make 5%, thirty-two net R for 8%, and forty net R for 10%.
Start with dollar risk, not lot size. Dollar risk equals account balance multiplied by risk percentage. Position size then equals dollar risk divided by the stop-loss value per contract or lot. Because point and pip value differs by symbol, currency, platform specification and quote, traders must read the live contract specification rather than copying a lot number from social media.
Example: at 0.20%, planned risk is $1,000. If the fully calculated loss at the chosen stop is $100 per lot, the maximum size is ten lots. If that same stop costs $250 per lot, the correct size is four lots. The account label does not change this logic.
TTT prohibits arbitrage, tick scalping, hedging across accounts, copy trading, signal bots, martingale and grid EAs, high-frequency trading, aggressive all-in behavior and malicious exploitation. The 1-Step help page also specifies trade-stacking restrictions and prohibits weekend holding unless applicable account terms or an eligible add-on state otherwise. An EA may be allowed generally but its underlying behavior can still breach policy.
At $500K, “I stayed below 4%” is not a complete defense. Concentrated exposure, sudden lot escalation, mirrored activity or challenge-completion gambling can trigger review. Keep strategy logic, screenshots, platform logs and risk records. If a rule is ambiguous, obtain a written answer before trading.
TTT’s dedicated product pages confirm that both Standard routes reach $500K, and its program table confirms the $3,499 and $3,299 base prices. The current help center supplies payout, drawdown, scaling, add-on, buyback and prohibited-strategy details. Some public marketing pages still carry stale seasonal banners, so prices and promotional eligibility retain a checkout caveat. The dedicated 1-Step Standard rule is now reflected clearly here.
Check five items immediately before payment: program name, account size, base fee, add-ons and final discount. Then save the order confirmation and governing rules. This is particularly important for the daily reset time, coupon eligibility and purchased add-on configuration.
The following scenarios translate headline percentages into decisions. They are planning examples, not performance promises.
This trader caps each idea at 0.10%, or $500, and focuses on one or two London-session setups. The key control is avoiding correlated EUR and USD exposure. Compared with the $20,000 advertised daily ceiling, the planned risk looks small; that is intentional. The purpose of a personal limit is to keep one execution error, spread expansion or correlated move from becoming an account-level event.
The route objective is $50,000 single-phase target. A standard 2R winner would produce approximately $1,000 before costs at this risk rate. The trader does not divide the target by a hoped-for number of days and then force that amount. Instead, each day is evaluated by setup quality. No qualifying setup means no trade, and no trade is preferable to manufacturing volume for psychological comfort.
Protect the daily limit is the dominant lesson. If two positions share the same macro driver, they are treated as one combined position. If floating equity rises before the reset, the trader records the high and recalculates available room. The trader tracks the verified 1-Step trailing-equity rule separately from the 2-Step static-overall rule and saves the purchased terms. This approach makes the $500K account operationally smaller than its label but substantially more survivable.
For payout readiness, the trader saves order terms, journal entries, screenshots and EA settings where applicable. An approved payout depends on both profit and compliance. The BRIDGE discount changes the purchase fee; it does not change trading rules, loss limits, target math or review standards.
This trader caps each idea at 0.15%, or $750, and focuses on one opening-range setup. The key control is using a hard session stop after two losses. Compared with the $20,000 advertised daily ceiling, the planned risk looks small; that is intentional. The purpose of a personal limit is to keep one execution error, spread expansion or correlated move from becoming an account-level event.
The route objective is $40,000 Phase 1 and $25,000 Phase 2 targets. A standard 2R winner would produce approximately $1,500 before costs at this risk rate. The trader does not divide the target by a hoped-for number of days and then force that amount. Instead, each day is evaluated by setup quality. No qualifying setup means no trade, and no trade is preferable to manufacturing volume for psychological comfort.
Separate target from timetable is the dominant lesson. If two positions share the same macro driver, they are treated as one combined position. If floating equity rises before the reset, the trader records the high and recalculates available room. The trader tracks the verified 1-Step trailing-equity rule separately from the 2-Step static-overall rule and saves the purchased terms.

This trader caps each idea at 0.20%, or $1,000, and focuses on one A-grade XAUUSD thesis. The key control is sizing from the actual dollar value of the stop. Compared with the $20,000 advertised daily ceiling, the planned risk looks small; that is intentional. The purpose of a personal limit is to keep one execution error, spread expansion or correlated move from becoming an account-level event.
The route objective is the applicable staged target. A standard 2R winner would produce approximately $2,000 before costs at this risk rate.

This trader caps each idea at 0.20%, or $1,000, and focuses on two carefully separated positions. The key control is accounting for overnight gaps and floating equity.

The purpose of a personal limit is to keep one execution error, spread expansion or correlated move from becoming an account-level event.
The route objective is $40,000 Phase 1 and $25,000 Phase 2 targets. A standard 2R winner would produce approximately $1,500 before costs at this risk rate. The trader does not divide the target by a hoped-for number of days and then force that amount. Instead, each day is evaluated by setup quality. No qualifying setup means no trade, and no trade is preferable to manufacturing volume for psychological comfort.
Plan the server reset is the dominant lesson. If two positions share the same macro driver, they are treated as one combined position.

Trade half size, confirm platform specifications, document reset time, and test journal accuracy. The route changes the milestone but not the need for repeatability. On 1-Step, progress is measured toward $50,000. On 2-Step, the first reference is $40,000 and the second is $25,000 after reset. A weekly outcome is recorded in R multiples as well as dollars so the large nominal balance does not distort judgment.
At the end of week 1, review maximum open risk, worst intraday equity, average planned risk, slippage, rule questions and any behavior that departed from the written plan. If the process was poor despite profit, do not reward it with larger size. If the process was sound despite a small loss, do not punish it with impulsive strategy changes.

Applied to the 1-Step route, this principle means planning from the actual target and drawdown structure. The daily headline boundary is $20,000 before an eligible upgrade, but a trader using a $2,500 personal daily stop preserves sixteen such daily-risk units inside the $40,000 overall headline envelope. Costs and rule mechanics can reduce the practical number, so the calculation is a planning reference rather than permission to exhaust every unit.

The daily headline boundary is $20,000 before an eligible upgrade, but a trader using a $2,500 personal daily stop preserves sixteen such daily-risk units inside the $40,000 overall headline envelope. Costs and rule mechanics can reduce the practical number, so the calculation is a planning reference rather than permission to exhaust every unit.
Record the rule, the decision and the result in plain language. If the outcome depends on a support interpretation, attach the dated written answer. This creates an evidence trail for self-review and helps prevent memory from rewriting the plan after a win or loss.
Unlimited evaluation time allows selectivity; it does not require constant market presence.
Applied to the 2-Step route, this principle means planning from the actual target and drawdown structure. The daily headline boundary is $20,000 before an eligible upgrade, but a trader using a $2,500 personal daily stop preserves sixteen such daily-risk units inside the $40,000 overall headline envelope. Costs and rule mechanics can reduce the practical number, so the calculation is a planning reference rather than permission to exhaust every unit.

For most traders, the $500K 2-Step Standard is the more coherent choice: lower base fee, explicit static overall drawdown, lower individual phase targets, a stronger recorded first split and earlier first-withdrawal availability. The tradeoff is completing two stages and producing $65,000 in total staged profit across reset balances.
The $500K 1-Step Standard is reasonable for a trader with a verified one-phase edge who values fewer stages more than the additional $200 fee and higher single target. It demands stronger live-equity control because the daily limit trails the highest equity point and the overall limit rises with new account highs.
If the chosen route is eligible, enter BRIDGE at checkout and verify the final total. The estimated base totals are $3,061.63 for 1-Step and $2,886.63 for 2-Step. These figures do not guarantee stacking with seasonal offers or add-on discounts.
Prop trading evaluations are high-risk products. The account balance is simulated, fees can be lost, and payouts depend on meeting all applicable rules and review requirements. Historical or hypothetical examples do not predict results. Verify current terms directly with TTT Markets before purchase and use only money you can afford to lose.
Yes. TTT Markets currently lists $500,000 on 1-Step Standard and 2-Step Standard. Lite, Instant Funding and Subscription do not currently offer a $500K starting size.
The current base price is $3,499. If BRIDGE applies at 12.5% to the eligible base order, the estimated total is $3,061.63 before taxes, conversion or add-ons.

1-Step requires 10%, equal to $50,000. 2-Step requires 8% in Phase 1 ($40,000) and 5% in Phase 2 ($25,000) on reset stage balances.
On 1-Step Standard, daily drawdown is 4% trailing from the highest equity point ($20,000 initially) and overall drawdown is 8% trailing upward with new account highs ($40,000 initially). On 2-Step Standard, daily drawdown is 4% and overall drawdown is a static 8% of initial balance.
Do not assume stacking. Enter BRIDGE and compare the live final total with any temporary promotion. Checkout determines eligibility, add-on treatment, taxes and rounding.
On eligible Standard accounts, the +20% fee upgrade raises daily drawdown from 4% to 5% and overall drawdown from 8% to 10%. Other rules remain in force.
The 1-Step first withdrawal requires at least 21 calendar days from first trade plus 14 trading days. The 2-Step first withdrawal becomes available 14 calendar days after the first funded trade, subject to review.
TTT says eligible funded 1-Step and 2-Step accounts may be reinstated subject to internal review. The stated cost is 2% of account size, or $10,000 for $500K.
For most methodical traders, 2-Step is the stronger default because it is cheaper, has lower staged targets, explicit static overall drawdown and earlier first-withdrawal availability. 1-Step fits traders who specifically value one phase and confirm its current drawdown mechanics.
