How Prop Firm Programs Work

Most programs define profit targets, daily loss limits, maximum drawdown and trading restrictions. Traders must follow the current rulebook to remain eligible.

Evaluation vs. Instant Funding

Some firms require one or two evaluation phases. Others offer instant-funded models with different risk and payout conditions.

Read the Rules Before Paying

Rules can change. Always review the firm’s current terms for news trading, overnight positions, automated trading, copy trading and payout requirements.
