A challenge is a paid evaluation: prove discipline under set rules, and the firm funds you for a share of profits.
Rules usually include a profit target, a daily drawdown limit, a maximum drawdown limit and a minimum number of trading days.
The evaluation is a screening test, not a money machine. You are buying the opportunity to trade simulated capital.
Read the full terms before you pay: drawdown calculation, news-trading restrictions, consistency rules and fees.
