Prop firm evaluation · Simulated
Demo a prop firm challenge
Pick a firm and an account size, then trade real NQ/MNQ replay candles. Drawdown floor, minimum trading days and consistency are enforced trade by trade, in their own journal.
Drawdown is measured end of day, so intraday gains don't loosen your floor until the session closes. Three trading days minimum and a 50% consistency cap.

- Your floor sits $2,000 below the equity you closed the last session at — intraday profit does not loosen it until the day ends.
- No single day may contribute more than 50% of total profit, and you need at least 3 trading days before a pass counts.

| What usually fails you | A big winner pulls the floor up, then a normal pullback breaches it | A single oversized green day breaks the consistency cap, or a slow grind breaches the EOD floor |
| Best rehearsal for | Protecting an open profit and sizing down after a green run | Surviving a long grind without a single blow-out session |
