RULEBOOK FAQ

Understand the limits
before buying a challenge.

Practical answers for reading drawdown, targets and account-specific restrictions.

01What is the most important prop firm rule to check?

Start with maximum and daily drawdown. Check the percentage, calculation basis, reset time and whether the limit trails your balance or equity.

02Are rules the same across every challenge at one firm?

No. One-step, two-step, instant and funded programs may use different targets, loss limits, trading-day requirements and payout conditions.

03Does Rank My Prop replace the official rule page?

No. This directory makes research faster. Always confirm the current program terms on the firm's official website before purchasing or trading.

04What does “not published” mean?

That field is not present in the current Rank My Prop firm record. We leave it clearly marked instead of inventing a value.
