Why this rank
Unavailable public evidenceUnavailable
This ranking uses trader fit with unavailable model inputs. Required model inputs are unavailable from ordinary public material, so this output should not be used for ranking or scenario decisions.
Informational comparison from ordinary public product/help/rule material. Missing public values stay visible as blockers instead of being treated as neutral.
Primary model note: rankings prioritize rule-derived difficulty, economic friction, constraints, and trader fit from ordinary public product/rule evidence; EV/pass probability are secondary scenario comparison estimates.
Rule-derived ranking blocked by missing public fields: daily_loss_limit_dollars, drawdown_type, news_trading_allowed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is a flat-by rule?
A flat-by rule requires all positions to be closed by a specific time, usually 3:45-4:59 PM ET. Violating it can terminate your funded account.
Why do prop firms have flat-by rules?
Flat-by rules prevent traders from holding through the daily settlement and overnight session, reducing the firm's risk exposure.
Which firms have no flat-by requirement?
Firms that allow overnight holds typically have no flat-by rule. Check DayTraders and Take Profit Trader for maximum flexibility.
