Frequently asked questions
What does "target ÷ loss" mean?
It is the total profit target across all phases divided by the max loss limit. A 10% target with a 10% max loss gives 1.00. A lower number means you need less profit for each unit of risk the firm allows, which usually makes a challenge easier to pass.
Why compare cost per $100K?
Firms price account sizes differently, so the cheapest $10K account is not always the cheapest way to get funded capital. Cost per $100K divides the price by the account size so you can compare across sizes. EUR and GBP prices are converted at a fixed rate for this column only.
Are these prices the final price I pay?
No. They are list prices before discount codes, taxes or add-ons such as a higher profit split or a refundable fee. Firms run discounts often, which are shown on each firm offer page.
What is the difference between 1-step, 2-step and instant funding?
