How this calculator works
Practical guide and assumptions
Funded-account programs can use different daily-loss, trailing-drawdown, equity, balance, reset-time, and news-trading rules. This calculator is a planning aid, not a representation of any specific firm's rules.
Formula and method
The calculator compares an entered account reference, loss limit, and current result with the remaining buffer. Always replace the example assumptions with the exact rule wording and reset time published by the program you are considering.
Before using the result
- Read the current rulebook for the exact program and account type.
- Check whether floating P&L, commissions, swaps, and open positions count toward the limit.
- Treat trailing limits and daily resets separately; they are not interchangeable.
Frequently asked questions
Does this calculator identify a safe prop firm?
No. It only applies your entered assumptions. It does not review a firm's business model, solvency, rules, payout history, or legal status.
Why can the displayed buffer differ from a dashboard?
Programs may use equity rather than balance, include fees or floating P&L, apply a trailing threshold, or use a different daily reset timezone.
