Prop firm trading tools
Prop firm marketing pages are built to make one number look good — a split, a discount, a max allocation. These calculators put every number in context, using the same firm dataset we use across the rest of the site, so you can see the real trade-off before you pay for an evaluation.

Every prop firm review site, including this one, ranks firms against each other. Rankings are useful for narrowing a shortlist, but they hide the arithmetic that actually decides whether a specific trader with a specific strategy comes out ahead. A firm that ranks first overall can be the wrong choice for a trader who scalps futures intraday, and a firm that ranks tenth can be the best available option for a swing trader who needs to hold over the weekend. The only way to know which is to run your own numbers through the actual rule set, not the headline.
Consistency rules are the clearest example. Two firms can advertise near-identical splits and evaluation prices, yet one lets a single spectacular day count fully toward your target while the other caps it at 30% of total profit and quietly delays your payout until you smooth the curve out over more sessions. The advertised numbers are the same; the real time-to-payout is not. The consistency rule calculator on this page exists because that gap causes more support tickets and forum complaints than almost anything else in this industry.
Drawdown mechanics are the second example, and arguably the more expensive one. "5% max drawdown" means something completely different depending on whether it trails your intraday high-water mark tick by tick, trails only the end-of-day balance, or sits static against the starting balance and never moves again. Traders fail funded accounts not because they lost money on net, but because an intraday trailing stop caught them mid-drawdown on a day they later recovered. The drawdown simulator lets you feed in a realistic sequence of daily results and see, model by model, which one would have stopped you out and which would have let you trade through it.
Cost is the third, and the one most traders underestimate because they only ever price a single attempt. Pass rates on funded evaluations are low industry-wide, which means the honest cost of "getting funded" is the price of the attempt that worked plus every attempt that failed before it, plus any recurring fees the firm charges once you are funded. The challenge cost calculator runs that full arithmetic, including reset fees and monthly account fees, rather than the single-purchase number every firm's pricing page shows you.
Finally, the prop firm matcher exists because most traders start their search with a ranking list built for an average trader who does not exist. A five-question quiz on budget, asset class, drawdown tolerance, payout speed and specific needs like news trading or weekend holding produces a shortlist built around your actual constraints, with the reasoning shown alongside each result so you can sanity-check it rather than trust it blindly.
How these tools are built
- ·Every calculator reads from the same firms.ts and tradingRules.ts datasets used across prop-firm reviews, comparisons and filter pages — there is no separate, unverified dataset behind the tools.
- ·Pricing tiers come from the offers dataset, which models each firm's published entry price across its account-size ladder.
- ·Nothing you enter is transmitted or stored; every calculation runs client-side in your browser.
- ·Outputs are illustrative modelling based on public rulebooks, not financial advice or a guarantee of a specific firm's behaviour.
Prices, splits and rules change. Confirm current terms on the firm's own site before purchasing.
FAQ
- Are these prop firm calculators free?
- Yes. Every tool on this page is free, requires no account, and runs entirely in your browser — nothing you enter is sent anywhere.
- Which tool should I use before buying an evaluation?
- Start with the challenge cost calculator to see the real expected cost of getting funded once resets and pass probability are priced in, then use the drawdown simulator to check the account's risk model against your trading style.
- Which tool should I use before requesting a payout?
- The consistency rule calculator. Most rejected or delayed payouts are caused by a single outsized day breaching a firm's consistency cap, and it takes thirty seconds to check before you submit the request.
- How often is the underlying firm data updated?
- The firm dataset that powers these tools — pricing, splits, drawdown model and consistency rules — is manually re-checked against each firm's public rulebook and shown with a visible verification date on every page.
