Prop firm challenge simulator
What are your real odds of passing a prop firm challenge?
Most challenges are lost to daily loss limits and trailing drawdown, not bad trade ideas. Enter how you trade and we replay the challenge 1,000 times under the firm's rules.
1. Challenge
Phase 1 then Phase 2. Static max loss from the starting balance.

How the simulation works
Each simulated challenge draws trades at random from your win rate and win/loss size (or from your real trades). It checks the daily loss limit after every trade, moves the trailing drawdown the way the firm does (at the close, or during trades for intraday trailing), and stops trailing once it reaches the starting balance. For intraday trailing we assume a losing trade first shows 0.5R of open profit before stopping out. You pass only after hitting the target, the minimum trading days and any consistency rule. Results are repeatable: the same inputs always give the same numbers.
Research tool, not investment advice. Past patterns do not guarantee future results.
Why most traders fail prop challenges
Daily loss limits
One bad morning can end a challenge even when your overall edge is positive. Bigger risk per trade makes a losing streak hit the daily cap sooner.
Trailing drawdown
On trailing accounts the loss line moves up with your profits, so the room you have shrinks just as you start winning.
Order of results
The same win rate can pass or fail depending on when losses land. Only replaying thousands of sequences shows your real odds.
