Frequently Asked Questions
How do I compare prop firm accounts?
Select firms and account sizes to see pricing, profit targets, drawdown limits, and evaluation rules side-by-side. Compare accounts across 16 firms with 11 different account sizes. You can compare the same size across firms, different sizes from one firm, or mix any accounts freely.
What account sizes are available for prop firm challenges?
Prop firm accounts range from $500 to $300,000. Available sizes include: $500, $5,000, $10,000, $25,000, $50,000, $75,000, $100,000, $150,000, $200,000, $250,000, $300,000. The most popular sizes are $50,000 and $150,000.
Which prop firm has the cheapest accounts?
Vest Markets (Perpetuals) offers the lowest-priced account starting at $9 after discount (use code "LUMI"). Prices vary significantly by account size and firm, so use our comparison tool to find the best value at your preferred size.
What is the difference between evaluation and funded accounts?
During evaluation, you trade with specific profit targets and drawdown limits to prove your skills. Once funded, the rules typically change: profit targets may differ, drawdown rules may adjust, and you begin receiving profit splits. Use our comparison tool to see exact differences between evaluation and funded phases.
What are profit targets and drawdown limits?
Profit targets are the minimum profit you must reach to pass evaluation or qualify for payouts. Drawdown limits are the maximum you can lose before failing. These vary by firm and account size — for example, 15 firms offer $50,000 accounts each with different target and drawdown combinations.
Can I compare accounts from different firms at different sizes?
Yes. Our account comparison tool supports three modes: cross-firm comparison (same size across firms), within-firm comparison (different sizes from one firm), and custom comparison (mix any accounts from any firms). This flexibility helps you find the best value at any budget.
