Picking a size

  • Bigger is not always better value. Compare the price with the drawdown you get, not just the headline account size.
  • Activation fees often rise with size. The cost to get funded can jump more than the evaluation price suggests.
  • Check contract or lot limits. A larger account usually allows more size per trade, which is the real difference in practice.
  • Monthly plans add up. Work out the cost if it takes you more than one month or attempt.
