Understanding the Challenge
Passing a prop firm challenge isn't just about making profits; it's about managing risk. Most traders fail not because they can't trade, but because they violate drawdown rules.
1. Risk Management is Key
Never risk more than 1-2% of your account on a single trade. This ensures you have enough buffer to withstand a losing streak without hitting the daily or overall drawdown limits.
2. Understand the Rules
Read the fine print. Know your daily drawdown reset times, prohibited strategies, and news trading restrictions. At CoinFunded, we offer 2-step and 1-step challenges with clear rules.
3. Psychology
Don't rush. You have unlimited time to pass the challenge. Treat it like a marathon, not a sprint.
