City Traders Imperium 1-Step Challenge $10KBefore each trade
City Traders Imperium 1-Step Challenge $10KYour real capital is $500, not $10,000: no daily loss limit is stated, 20 end the account. Size every trade so a normal losing streak cannot reach that limit, and set a daily limit of your own.
The loss side
your edge: +0.13R · $3 a trade on averageThe firm states no daily limit: yours is the only one.
From the starting balance, on a static floor.
The longest losing streak to expect is worked out once the simulation has run: it needs the length of a typical run.
| Losses in a row | All lose next | In a day | In 100 trades | In a typical run |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2 · Your stopends the day by your choice | 30% | 44% | 100% | — |
| 20 · Max drawdownthe account is lost | 1 in 155,864 | — | 1 in 4,213 | — |
“All lose next” is the chance that the coming trades are all losers. The other columns are the chance that such a streak happens at least once: in a day of 3 trades and in 100 trades. The typical run is known once the simulation has run. All are exact, from your win rate.
The gain side
1 phase · $38 a winNet of losses it takes more trades: the simulation counts them.
Trade by trade at your win rate, under the firm's rules and your limits.
| Winning trades in a row | Chance in a row | What it means |
|---|---|---|
| 22 wins of $38 | 1 in 42,591,673 | the first target in one go: the one-day rush |
| 11 wins of $38 | 1 in 6,526 | half of the first target in one go |

Kelly and the risk of ruin
what the formulas sayKelly = win rate − loss rate ÷ reward = 0.45 − 0.55 ÷ 1.5 = 8.3% a trade, applied here to your real capital, the $500 drawdown. Full Kelly grows fastest with deep swings on the way; most traders use a quarter to a half of it. You are at 0.6 Kelly: above half, losing runs get long.
The chance a losing run eats the whole drawdown (20 losses of room) if you traded these numbers without end, on one account.
The real figure for this account: its daily limit and its targets included.
Risk of ruin ≈ e^(−r × U), where U is the losses of room (the drawdown ÷ the risk of one trade) and r solves p · e^(−r × reward) + q · e^(r) = 1 (p the win rate, q the loss rate). Kelly and ruin assume trades of the same size, one after another.

Each run trades your numbers under the account's rules: its daily loss limit, its max drawdown (static, trailing, end of day or locking at the starting balance as the firm states it), its targets, its minimum days and its consistency rule, and under your own limits. A rule the firm does not publish is left out and named. Rules of the accounts are data of Oct 5, 2026. A calculation, not a promise. Check your own days in the consistency calculator
