Method and how to cite
Price per $1,000: evaluation price divided by the account size in thousands, so a $150 evaluation for a $50,000 account is $3.00 per $1,000. We take the median over every account size of every firm in the market. Cost to get funded: evaluation price plus the activation fee, with two months of fees when the evaluation is billed monthly; account sizes whose activation fee is unverified are left out. Firms are grouped by their primary market. Prices come from each firm’s own site and are re-checked every night. Read the full methodology. Related: State of prop firm rules and prop firm statistics.
