Funded Trading Plus Challenge Simulator

Rules as published on fundedtradingplus.com, checked 21 October 2026. Prop firms revise rules often — confirm on their site before you buy; the source for each program is in the fine print below. Account sizes offered: $100k.

The same trader passes one firm's challenge far more often than another's, and the difference is the rules, not the trader. To isolate it, each program below was run through the CRTLAB challenge simulator for three traders: a break-even one (50% wins at 1:1 — zero edge, so any pass is the rules' slack plus luck), a small edge (45% at 1:1.5) and a solid edge (45% at 1:2).

Of Funded Trading Plus's 2 programs, 1-Step Express leaves a break-even trader the most room (21.2% pass) and 2-Step Classic the least (18.7%).

Simulated: $100k account, 1% risk per trade, 2 trades a day, 60 trading days or the program's own limit; multi-phase programs multiply each phase's pass rate. Min-day and consistency rules are not simulated. Run your own numbers in the prop firm challenge calculator.

On 1-Step Express the target (10%) is 1.7× the room you have to lose (6%). That gap is the whole difficulty: a trader has to make 1.7 units for every unit they can afford to give back, so a cold streak early in the phase ends more attempts than a lack of edge does.

The max loss trails intraday, including open profit: a trade that runs 6% in your favour and comes back to break-even has used your entire allowance without closing a loss. This is the rule that catches traders who let winners breathe, and it is the first thing to rehearse.

There is a 4% daily loss limit. With only 6% in total, two bad days are the whole account.

In simulation, a trader with a small edge (45% wins at 1:1.5, 1% risk) fails 56.1% of phase-one attempts on the max loss; the ones who pass take a median of 13 trading days.

The button opens CRTLAB with prop firm mode running on Funded Trading Plus's 1-Step Express rules. The chart's HUD carries your progress to target, the distance to the max loss and the daily floor, and it calls the verdict — passed, phase two, or breached — the moment a rule is hit, exactly as the firm's dashboard would. Every Funded Trading Plus program and account size is one click away in the rules panel, and so are the other 98 firms in the catalogue.

What makes it a rehearsal rather than a demo account: you replay real historical data, candle by candle, on any of 38 markets from 1-minute to weekly, and you can do in an evening what a live challenge takes a month to show you. Run the same week three times with three different risk sizes and watch which one the intraday trailing floor catches.

There is no account to fund and no time limit on practice — the replay waits for you. When your rehearsals pass consistently, you know the edge survives Funded Trading Plus's rules before the fee is spent.
