A rehearsal loop for the exact challenge you plan to buy
Prop firms sell attempts. FundedLot sells practice. Here is the loop that turns a failed evaluation from a $500 lesson into a free one.
Step 1
Pick your challenge and its rules
Choose a virtual account size from 5K to 200K and an evaluation plan: profit target, daily loss limit, total drawdown and minimum trading days — enforced live, tick by tick, against equity including open positions.
Trailing drawdown, consistency and timezone rules are judged afterwards in the simulated payout check, whose rule profile is editable — so when a firm's fine print says "5% daily loss measured on equity, reset at 5pm New York", you can judge your history against exactly that. Read how each rule works if they're new to you.
Step 2
Trade it like the fee already left your account
Real market prices across forex, metals, indices and crypto, with realistic spreads and slippage. The rules run live against your equity — including open positions, the way real firms measure it.
Before every entry, the Risk Guard checks your order against your rules. If a loss on this trade would breach your daily limit, it tells you the maximum size that keeps you alive — before the damage, not after.
Step 3
Fail, read the autopsy, fix one thing, retry
When an evaluation ends, you get a full post-mortem: the trade that ended it, the sequence of decisions behind it, each mistake priced in dollars, and what the same week would have looked like with your risk capped.
Retrying costs a tap. Most traders need several attempts to internalize the daily loss limit alone — the entire point is that those attempts should not cost $500 each. See why most attempts fail.
Then
Buy the real attempt once, not five times
The readiness score replays thousands of simulated evaluations built from your own recent trades against the plan you want to attempt, and reports a pass probability with your biggest blockers ranked by impact.
It's an estimate from practice history, never a prediction of real results — but it beats the usual method, which is paying to find out. When the score stops embarrassing you, you're ready to spend money.
