PropPassCheck

Will your strategy pass a prop firm challenge?

Upload a backtest or your trade history and see your chance of passing, and of reaching a first payout, at every firm in our prop firm directory. Free, no sign-up, and your trades never leave your browser.

Test before you pay for a challenge. No affiliate links, no firm pays to be listed, and every rule is checked against the firm’s own site and dated. How we check firms.

How to use PropPassCheck

Find out whether your trading strategy is likely to pass a prop firm challenge, and get paid, before you spend money on one. It's free, needs no sign-up and takes about a minute.

  1. Upload your trades

    Upload a backtest or your real trade history from MT4, MT5, cTrader, TradingView, or any CSV or Excel file with a profit column. The test uses your actual wins, losses and busy or quiet days, so it reflects how you really trade. A sample backtest is loaded until you add your own.

  2. Choose the challenges

    Every firm account is ticked to start with, including instant funding accounts. Untick any you're not interested in. If your firm isn't listed, add its rules with Add your own challenge.

  3. Read your results

    Each account is attempted 2,000 times using your trades and its real rules. Results appear as soon as your file loads, best first, ranked by your chance of reaching a first payout.

What the results mean

Pass chance
How often you clear every phase of the challenge. Instant accounts have no challenge, so they skip this.
Reach first payout
How often you pass and then meet the firm's payout rules without breaking a limit. This is the number that matters most.
Median trading days
The typical number of trading days to pass, or to a first payout on instant accounts.
Coloured bar
How the attempts ended: passed, hit the daily loss limit, hit the maximum loss, or ran out of time.
Tip
When trading a bigger or smaller size would improve your odds, it tells you how much and the new chance.
Verdict stamp
Strong chance 70%+ · Coin flip 40–69% · Unlikely under 40%

This is a simulation built on your trades, not a promise. Real markets change, and some firms measure losses on open trades, which can breach you sooner. Always read a firm's current rules before you buy; each result shows when we last checked them.

Not passing yet? Build a strategy that fits the rules

The strategy builder adds guards that stop trading before a firm's daily or maximum loss is hit, then exports to MT5, MT4, TradingView, cTrader or NinjaTrader 8. Building and previewing are free. Exports need a pass: from £20 for 15 days, one-off, never renews.

Step 1

Your trades

Upload a backtest or trade history from your platform:

  • MT4 / MT5 Strategy Tester report, saved as HTML or Excel.
  • cTrader In the backtest History tab, right-click and choose Export to Excel.
  • TradingView Strategy Report, List of Trades tab, then Download (CSV).
  • TradeLocker Has no history export yet. Try copying the Closed Positions table, with its headings, into the paste box below, or ask your broker or prop firm for a statement as a CSV.
  • NinjaTrader 8 Trade Performance, Trades tab: right-click, Export, CSV.
  • Tradovate Reports, Performance tab, then download the CSV.
  • Anything else Any CSV or Excel file with a profit column and a close time.
Drop a file here, or choose one
Most firms count open losses, not just closed trades. If your file only has closed trades, add how far a trading day usually goes below its worst closed point: often 0.5–1%. Not used once the open-trade check has run, because that measures the real dips.
