The5ersThe5ers 25K Day Trade: Rules, Cost & Payout Analysis
How it scores
The5ers 25K Day Trade ranks #34 of the 64 25K futures plans we benchmark, with a PropBench Score of 50. Its strongest part is cost, its weakest is payouts.
One try costs $59. The evaluation needs $1,500 on a $1,000 end of day trailing drawdown (1 in 3.2). The funded account needs $1,000 on a $1,000 end of day trailing drawdown (1 in 2.3). Together that is about 1 in 7.4 tries to a first payout on coin flip odds, so a first payout costs $436 on average (the typical plan of this size: $1,011).
A steady trader making $100 a day gets the first payout after 25 trading days and keeps $3,474 from 3 months of funded trading.
Cost$436 per first payout90
A trader with no edge reaches a profit of d before losing a static drawdown of D with chance D ÷ (D + d). A trailing floor that follows the peak gives e−d ÷ D; end of day trailing counts halfway between the two.
