Passing the Evaluation with a 50K Account

Successfully passing the evaluation process is your first step towards becoming a funded trader with Apex Trader Funding. Here’s everything you need to know about passing the evaluation using a 50K account as a reference.

Minimum Trading Days

• Qualify with 7 days (or more). A trading day is defined from 6 PM one day to 5 PM the next day. This includes half-day trading holidays as part of the next day.

Trailing Threshold

• No daily drawdown concerns with our live trailing threshold, allowing for continuous monitoring through the rTrader software provided.

Trade Any Day, 23 Hours A Day

• Trade on holidays and during news events from 6 PM ET to 4:59 PM ET. Note: All trades must be closed and pending orders cancelled before 4:59 PM ET.

Maximum Position Size

• Maximize your trading potential by trading up to the max position size. Our system automatically caps your positions, ensuring you’re never stopped out for exceeding contract limits in evaluation or funded accounts.

Trade During News

• Trading during a news announcement with your regular strategy won’t lead to failure. However, strategies specifically targeting news events for windfalls are prohibited.

One Simple Step

• Achieve your profit target without hitting your max drawdown within 7 days of trading (or more) to qualify.
