ForTraders Instant $25KBefore each trade
ForTraders Instant $25KYour real capital is $1,250, not $25,000: 12 losing trades in a row end your day, 20 end the account. Size every trade so a normal losing streak cannot reach those limits, and stop for the day before the firm stops you.
The loss side
your edge: +0.13R · $8 a trade on averageYour own limits stop you first: after 2 losses in a row, or 5 losses ($313).
Trailing: the floor rises with your best balance, so after a run of wins it takes fewer.
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% | — |
| 12 · Daily loss limitthe firm ends the day | 1 in 1,305 | — | 3.1% | — |
| 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.

Consistency
best day ≤ 15% of the profit for a payout$1,250 × 15%: past it, that day is too big.
At 15%, no single day can carry the goal.
80% of the most allowed: room for smaller days.

The drawdown floor
trailing, locks at the starting balanceIt follows your best balance, $1,250 below it, until it reaches the starting balance.
About 54 days at your average day ($23). Until then, a losing run after a good day costs twice: trade half size until it locks (“Build a buffer first” above).

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 $1,250 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
