Common questions about our free guides and how to use them
The Education Center is a free library of prop trading guides covering evaluations, funded accounts, daily loss limits, drawdown, consistency rules, payouts, risk management, trading psychology, platform mechanics and prop firm business models.
A prop firm challenge requires the trader to reach a profit target while staying within daily and maximum loss rules and any minimum-day or consistency requirements. Passing the required evaluation stages can lead to a funded or simulated-funded account under the firm's current rules.
An evaluation requires the trader to pass one or more challenge phases before reaching the funded stage. Instant funding skips the conventional evaluation but often uses different pricing, payout, drawdown, consistency or profit-buffer rules.
Drawdown can be static, balance-based trailing, equity-based trailing, end-of-day trailing or another account-specific method. The calculation determines the account's loss floor, so traders should understand exactly when and how it moves before trading.
A daily loss limit sets the maximum loss permitted during a trading day or session. Depending on the firm, it can be calculated from start-of-day balance, equity, realized loss or another reference point.
A consistency rule limits how concentrated profits can be in a single day or requires performance across multiple days. It can apply during an evaluation, before a payout, or both.
Payouts can depend on minimum profitable days, a profit buffer, consistency, minimum withdrawal amounts, payout caps, profit split and a waiting period. Different firms and account types can use very different payout structures.
There is no single risk percentage that fits every trader or account. Risk should be sized around the account's daily loss limit, maximum drawdown, volatility, stop distance and the number of trades a strategy normally takes.
News-trading permissions depend on the firm and account. Some allow trading through high-impact events, while others restrict opening or closing positions around specified releases. Always use the selected account's current rules.
Some firms allow EAs, algorithms or copying between trader-owned accounts, while others restrict automation, signal mirroring, coordinated trading or specific high-frequency strategies. The account agreement controls.
Before starting, calculate the daily and maximum loss limits, choose position sizes that fit the strategy, understand the drawdown formula, know the news and holding rules, set a daily stop and plan how many trades are required to reach the target without forcing volume.
Compare the actual drawdown allowance, profit target, price, leverage or contract limit, payout conditions and your normal trade size. A larger advertised balance is not automatically easier if its usable loss buffer is proportionally tighter.
Understand profit targets, daily loss, maximum drawdown, consistency, minimum trading days, prohibited strategies, payout qualification, profit split, platform, news rules, holding rules, scaling and account fees before purchase.
Yes. Education Center guides are available without a separate subscription fee and are designed to help traders research prop trading mechanics before making account decisions.
Guides are refreshed when material industry practices, firm rules, evaluation models, payout structures, platforms or risk mechanics change.
