| Programme | Take Profit Trader Test $50K | The5ers High Stakes (2-Step, 'New' variant) |
|---|---|---|
| Market | Futures | Forex & CFDs |
| Account size | $50,000 | $100,000 |
| Evaluation fee | Not published / month | $405 |
Profit target — explain simplyProfit target The profit an evaluation account must reach, without breaking any rule, to pass that phase.Example: $50,000 account with a 6% target: you must make $3,000.Watch out: Reaching the target does not override other rules such as minimum trading days.More plain-language terms | $3,000 | 10% Step 1, 5% Step 2 |
Daily loss limit — explain simplyDaily loss limit The most an account may lose within one trading day. Breaching it usually fails the account or ends trading for the day.Example: $100,000 starting balance, 5% daily limit: a $5,000 loss in one day (often including open losses) breaches it.Watch out: Firms differ on whether it is measured from the day's starting balance or equity, and when the day resets.More plain-language terms | None on Test accounts | 4% |
Max drawdown — explain simplyDrawdown How far an account has fallen from a previous high point. A 'maximum drawdown' rule sets how far the balance may fall before the account fails.Example: An account peaks at $10,500 and falls to $9,800: the drawdown from that peak is $700 (about 6.7%).Watch out: Prop firms measure drawdown differently (static, trailing, end-of-day). Read the exact rule.More plain-language terms | $2,000 EOD trailing; stops trailing at starting balance End-of-day trailing | 8% |
Minimum days — explain simplyMinimum trading days The fewest separate days you must trade before passing or requesting a payout, even if the target is reached sooner.More plain-language terms | 3 trading days | 3 profitable days per step (0.5% of initial balance) |
Profit split — explain simplyProfit split The share of eligible profits a funded trader receives under the firm's payout rules.Example: An 80% split on $2,000 of eligible profit is $1,600 to the trader, before any payout conditions.Watch out: Payout timing, minimums and eligibility rules matter as much as the percentage.More plain-language terms | PRO 80/20; PRO+ 90/10 | 80% at $100K, rising to 100% via scaling plan |
| Payouts | PRO: withdraw from day one once $52,000 buffer reached; PRO+ has no buffer | Funded: payout cap $4,000, min withdrawal $500 on $100K; fee refunded |
| Platforms | TradingView, NinjaTrader, Tradovate, Bookmap, MultiCharts, MotiveWave, R|Trader, Quantower, ATAS, Jigsaw | MetaTrader 5 |
Reset / retry — explain simplyReset Restarting a prop evaluation from the original balance and rules, usually for a fee, after failing or to start over.Watch out: Repeated resets add up — count them in the true cost of a programme.More plain-language terms | Test reset $99 for $50K; one-time $130 PRO activation fee (waived under promo codes) | Not published |

About this data. Every rule and price is taken from the firm's own website on the date shown, with a link to the page. Firms change their rules often — confirm on the official page before you pay. “Not published” means we could not find the value on an official page; we never estimate it. Order is by your filters or alphabetical, never by commission. Prop-firm evaluations are paid products; most traders do not pass, and a funded account is not a guarantee of income.
