Prop Rules Check / independent guide
Prop firm drawdown comparison.
Compare how maximum loss, daily loss and trailing thresholds are defined. A lower percentage is not automatically better: the measurement method and reset timing matter.

Method
Method Fields are normalized only when the source states them clearly. Where a provider uses a product-specific or account-specific rule, the table preserves that uncertainty and links back to the source. Read the individual snapshot before relying on a row.

Rule math worksheet
Translate a drawdown model into a clear threshold.
Use the exact model and values from a dated provider snapshot. The worksheet makes the reference point visible so a fixed rule is not confused with a trailing rule.

Practical answers
Frequently asked questions
How should I compare prop-firm drawdown rules?
First identify whether the limit is daily, maximum, static, trailing, intraday or end-of-day. Then check the reference value, calculation time, treatment of open-position losses, commissions and the exact breach condition. A percentage alone is not enough to compare two programs.
Does a profit-target comparison predict whether I will pass?
No. A target is one program condition, not a forecast of performance or a passing probability. Review it alongside loss limits, minimum or consistency rules, prohibited strategies, trading hours, payout conditions and the current provider terms.
Why does the rule snapshot date matter?
Prop-firm rules, account products, platforms and payout conditions can change. Record the provider page, account type, size, currency, effective date and time checked, then verify the live terms immediately before purchasing or trading.
Is this comparison a recommendation to buy an evaluation?
No. It is an educational comparison of stated conditions and does not endorse a provider, assess your suitability, predict results or replace independent review of the provider's current terms and risks.
