Frequently asked questions

What does cost per $1,000 mean?

It is the evaluation price divided by the account size, multiplied by 1,000. It lets you compare a $25K plan with a $150K plan fairly, but it ignores drawdown size, rules and activation fees.

Is the cheapest plan the best plan?

Not necessarily. A cheap plan with a tight intraday drawdown can cost more in resets than a pricier plan with an end-of-day drawdown. Compare the drawdown type and use the challenge cost calculator.

Where do the prices come from?

From the same firm data used on every FundedGuide page, with a last-verified date shown under the table. Always confirm live prices and promotions on the firm site.
