01The short answer
ANSWERMost traders who fail a prop firm challenge break the drawdown rules, not the profit target. Risk small (around 0.5% to 1% per trade), know the daily and maximum loss limits, trade only your backtested setups, and don't rush the target.
02Key points
- Calculate your real daily loss limit before the first trade.
- Treat the challenge like a normal month of trading.
- Stop trading for the day long before the daily limit.
