DayTraders' EOD evaluation: end-of-day drawdown, a 300K account size, two qualifying days that need real profit, and no profit split taken by the firm.
DayTraders run the largest account in this calculator at 300K and take no profit split — traders keep up to 100%. Two rules are easy to misread. First, the 150K profit target is $8,500, not $9,000: DayTraders break the 6% pattern every other firm follows, and comparison sites routinely get this wrong. Second, a qualifying day requires real profit, not merely a trade — so the usual trick of ticking off minimum days with a token micro trade does not work here.
Best day no more than 50% of total profit, layered on top of a two-qualifying-day minimum.
Two days. But note what a qualifying day means here: each of those days must clear a minimum profit figure that scales with account size. You cannot reach the target on day one and tick day two with a one-second micro trade — the day would not count.
Every figure below is checked against the firm's own documentation and re-audited weekly.
| Account | Profit target | Max loss limit | Daily loss limit | Max contracts |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 25K | $1,500 | $1,000 | $800 soft breach | 6 minis 60 micros |
| 50K | $3,000 | $2,000 | $1,250 soft breach | 10 minis 100 micros |
| 150K | $8,500 | $4,000 | $2,000 soft breach | 24 minis 240 micros |
| 300K | $15,000 | $6,500 | $3,250 soft breach | 40 minis 400 micros |
The calculator applies these exact rules, shows your minimum days, the points and ticks you need per market, and — if you know your win rate — the odds you actually make it.

A day on which you make real profit above a minimum threshold that scales with account size. A token trade opened and closed for a tick does not qualify, unlike at most other firms.
