How a two-step evaluation works

A two-step evaluation splits the profit target across two phases. The loss limits still apply on every trading day.

Two targets, one set of risk rules

A two-step evaluation asks you to reach a profit target, then a second one. Daily loss and maximum loss stay in force during both phases. Passing phase one does not relax the risk rules.

What you see before you start

The program page lists the profit target, daily loss, maximum loss, and minimum trading days. Those figures are the objectives stored for the account. The workspace reads the same numbers while you trade.

Where orders go

Orders fill on PropFundedTrader's internal book. They are not routed to an outside broker. Quotes come from public market data and are widened by the firm's spread.

After both phases

When both targets are met and the account is still inside the loss limits, the account can move to the funded phase. A reward request is a manual review. It is not an automatic bank transfer.
