Prop firm challenge simulator

Fail the challenge here, for free. Not there, for the fee.

Replay real past markets under the exact rules of the prop-firm plan you're about to buy: the target, the drawdown floor, the daily limit, consistency and minimum days. Then see how often a record like yours would pass.

How it works

  1. 1

    Pick the plan you're considering

    Search the firm, filter forex or futures, then choose the plan and the account size. Any of the 81 markets can be replayed under it.

  2. 2

    Trade it like the real thing

    Replay a past session bar by bar, or a random date with the date hidden. Your balance, today's loss and the distance to the floor update on every bar.

  3. 3

    Pass, fail, or learn why

    Hit the target and the phase passes. Break a rule and it fails, with the rule named. Then read your pass odds across many runs, not just one.

The rules that actually fail people, modelled

Drawdown floors, all four kinds

Static, intraday trailing, end-of-day trailing, and trailing that locks at break-even. The floor moves exactly when the firm's rule says it does.

Worst case inside the bar

Open trades are marked at the bar's adverse extreme. If your equity touched the floor mid-candle, the challenge fails, just as it would with the firm.

Daily loss limits

Hard breaches fail the account. Where a firm only locks you out for the rest of the day, you're locked out and the challenge carries on tomorrow.

Consistency rules

If one day is too large a share of your profit, the target is blocked until the rest of your days catch up, as the firm requires.

Minimum days and phases

Minimum trading days, and two-step evaluations with a second phase that starts fresh after the first passes.

Costs that count

Session spread, commission and slippage on stops are charged in replay too, so a strategy that only works on zero costs shows it here first.

One pass proves little. Your pass odds say more.

A single replay can pass on luck. FX Battlefield takes your own results in R and resamples them thousands of times against the plan's rules, using the same Monte Carlo engine as RiskDesk's prop-firm tools.

  • A likely range, not one number. Pass odds come with a band, and only appear once you have closed 10 trades with a stop.
  • Any plan, one click away. Switch firm, plan or account size and see how your odds change before you spend on one.
  • Risk per trade, tested. The pass probability matrix shows a plan's odds for each mix of risk per trade and reward to risk.

Firms and plans included

Rules were last checked against each firm's own site on 3 October 2026 and are re-checked every month. Firms change their rules often, so check the firm's site before you buy.

Firm and plan names belong to their owners. FX Battlefield is not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by any of them.

Size it before you trade it

Most failed challenges are sizing failures: one trade too big for the daily limit. RiskDesk's free calculators work out the size that fits a plan's limits, and how likely a run of losses is to end the account.

When you go live, RiskDesk applies the same plan rules to your real account: position sizing, protection on every order, and daily limits.

What a simulator can't tell you

A replay has no real money, real pressure or real liquidity, and past markets are not future ones. Passing here doesn't mean you'll pass with the firm, and failing here is cheaper than failing there. Some firms also have rules a replay can't model, such as news-trading bans, copy-trading checks or manual reviews. FX Battlefield is for education and practice and never gives signals or advice.

Questions

Is the challenge simulator free?

Yes. Challenge mode, with every firm and plan, is in the Free plan. You need a free account: an email and a password, no card. See all plans.

Is this an FTMO free trial?

No. FTMO and other firms run their own trials on their own platforms. FX Battlefield is independent: it replays past markets under each firm's published rules, so you can compare plans and practise in one place.

Which markets can I trade in a challenge?

Any of the 81 markets: 28 FX pairs, metals, indices, energy, grains, softs and rates. Pick the ones your firm actually allows.

How up to date are the rules?

They were checked against each firm's own site on 3 October 2026 and are re-checked monthly. If a firm has changed something since, its own site is the one to trust.

Does passing here mean I'll pass the real challenge?

No. It shows whether your trading fits the rules, and how often a record like yours would pass. That's a better guide than hope, not a guarantee.
