Presets, account sizes, and setting the numbers by hand.

Select Prop firm challenge on the setup screen and the rule fields appear.

Challenge setup

Presets

Four rule shapes cover most of what the industry sells:

Preset

Typical shape

Two-step, phase 1

Higher profit target, generous drawdown

Two-step, phase 2

Lower target, same risk limits

One-step

Single stage, tighter drawdown

Instant funding

Small target, very tight limits

They are named by shape rather than by firm, because the numbers move around and we would rather not put a company’s name on a rule set they might change tomorrow.

Account size

Pick the balance you would actually be given. This matters more than it looks: a 5% daily loss limit is $500 on a $10,000 account and $5,000 on a $100,000 one, and those two demand completely different position sizing.

Setting your own

Every number is editable. Copy the exact rules of the firm you are considering — they publish them — and rehearse against those.

Practise phase 2 as well as phase 1. Most people rehearse the first stage, pass it for real, then fail the second one — where the target is smaller but the risk limits have not moved.
