Two different questions: How much trade size fits my risk? · What do evaluation attempts cost?
What will a prop firm really cost you? Add it up here. True cost = evaluation price + activation fee + (expected resets × reset fee). Fields prefill only with verified numbers; blanks mean "check site": enter the price you actually see at checkout (after any discount).
Tip: if a firm doesn't offer resets, enter the cost of buying a new evaluation as the "reset" fee.
True cost = evaluation price + activation fee + (expected resets × reset fee). A code discount is applied only to the evaluation price where we verified it; reset fees stay at list unless a reset discount is verified. Blank = "check site", never counted as $0. "Partner" means we have an affiliate link or code (#ad); it does not change the numbers.

Edge tips are written educational notes. Edge is our guide mascot, not a live adviser. Meet Edge. Your inputs are stored only in the link (URL parameters). Nothing is sent to us.
Size the risk. Not the headline account.
Enter your own limits. We use the smallest of your trade-risk cap, remaining daily budget and drawdown cushion, then divide by the stop risk per contract plus your cost/slippage allowance. Illustrative starting values below are not firm rules.
This only estimates loss at the entered stop; it does not guarantee a fill, model gap risk or enforce contract caps, trailing thresholds or consistency rules. Apply the firm’s tighter limits yourself. Never use the advertised account balance as the usable drawdown allowance. Inputs stay in this page; nothing is uploaded. Not financial advice.
How much does it really cost to get funded?
Hypothetical, illustrative estimate only. Pick a firm and account, then set your own guess of the chance you pass one attempt. We do not know your real pass rate and nobody can promise one.
How it works: expected attempts = 1 ÷ your probability. Expected fees = the fee for each attempt (a new account per attempt) added up over those attempts. It ignores data fees, activation fees after passing (unless listed), taxes and promotions. #ad: links and codes here are affiliate links/codes; we may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Risk disclaimer: trading futures and CFDs involves substantial risk of loss. Most evaluation buyers never receive a payout. Passing does not mean you will earn anything. This is not financial advice; confirm every price at the firm's checkout.
