Calculation Methodology: All figures assume 5% monthly returns and include real prop firm data including challenge costs, profit splits, pass rates, and risk factors. Expected values factor in failure probability.

Risk Ratings: Based on drawdown limits, daily loss limits, pass rates, and challenge difficulty. Higher expected values with lower risk ratings indicate better opportunities.

Frequently Asked Questions

How accurate are the profit calculations?

Our calculator uses real, up-to-date data from prop firms including actual challenge costs, profit splits, drawdown limits, and historical pass rates. However, results depend on your actual trading performance and market conditions.

What's included in the risk analysis?

We factor in real pass rates (typically 10-25%), maximum drawdown limits, daily loss limits, minimum trading days, and calculate expected value based on success probability. This gives you a realistic view of potential outcomes.

Can I compare multiple prop firms?

Yes! You can select multiple firms (FTMO, E8 Markets, Instant Funding, The5ers, Blueberry Funded, Funded Elite) and compare them side-by-side. The calculator shows detailed metrics for each firm and ranks them by expected value.

What account sizes are supported?

The calculator supports $25,000, $50,000, $100,000, and $200,000 account sizes. Each size has different challenge costs and requirements depending on the prop firm.

How do I interpret the Expected Value?

Expected Value factors in both the potential profit and the probability of success. A positive expected value means the opportunity is mathematically favorable when accounting for failure rates. Higher expected values indicate better risk-adjusted returns.
