Select the profit sharing settlement period:
Profit Sharing Every Fixed Number of Days - you will need to specify the required number of days.

Manual - This means that profit sharing settlements will only be triggered manually by you. Exceptions are when your trader passes or fails a challenge; in these cases, the system will automatically initiate profit sharing settlement.
Choose between automatic or manual profit sharing methods.
Manual Distribution: Manual review and approval from you are required before the profit sharing amount is distributed to the recipients' wallet.
Automatic Distribution: The system automatically calculates and distributes the profit sharing amount to the intended recipients' wallet. No manual intervention is needed.

Ensure that the challenge type is filled in all relevant languages.
Once created, the new challenge type will appear in the dropdown list and can be assigned to other challenges.
Your clients can select a challenge type, and the relevant list of challenges associated with it will be displayed.
Below are the definitions for various parameters used in setting up prop trading challenges:
You can set up two different commission structures: Level Structure and Rank Structure.
For Level Structure:
Add the number of levels for commission payouts by clicking the "Add" icon.
Enter the commission amount.
If "Include Challenger" is selected, the first level defaults to the challenger.
To set up overriding commission and same rank bonus, you will need to select a "Rank Structure."
Set up overriding commission and same rank bonus under the respective tabs.
For Rank Structure:
The tiers for the selected rank structure will be displayed automatically.
Enter the commission amount for each tier.
Configure overriding and same rank commission accordingly.
You have the flexibility to assign different challenges and packages to specific client groups, tailoring offerings to their unique business requirements. Assigned client groups gain visibility of the challenge and packages, while unassigned groups won't have access.
All client groups will be automatically selected by default for existing challenges and packages.
Modifying assigned client groups is possible even after the challenge has commenced.
Existing challengers can still view and participate in the challenge, even if they are not part of the assigned client groups. However, upon completion or full failure of the challenge, participants will no longer have visibility of the challenge.
To assign a challenge/package to client groups:
Locate the challenge/package and click the "Client Groups" icon.
Select the client groups where the challenge and package will be visible.
Click "Save."
If a challenge or package does not have any assigned client group, an "!" icon will remind you to make an assignment.
You can also efficiently create new challenges by duplicating existing ones, saving time on repetitive data entry. To duplicate prop challenges, follow the steps below:
Locate the prop challenge you want to duplicate and click the "Duplicate Challenge" icon.
The challenge will be duplicated, and "-copy" will be appended to the challenge name to indicate it as a duplicate.
The duplicated challenge will be automatically saved as a draft.
You can then proceed to edit and publish the prop challenge as needed.
The CRM compares the latest obtained equity with the equity at the end of the previous day to determine if the trader has reached the maximum daily loss threshold.
Challenge fails when: Latest Equity - Previous Day Equity ≤ - Maximum Daily Loss
For Example:
Initial Equity: $10,000
Maximum Daily Loss = 5% x $10,000 = $500
$10,000
$11,000
$11,000 - $10,000 = $1,000
$1,000 ≥ - $500 Challenge has not failed.
$11,000
$8,500
$8,500 - $11,000 = -$2,500
-$2,500 ≤ -$500 Challenge has failed.
The CRM compares the latest obtained equity with the initial equity to determine if the trader has reached the maximum loss threshold.

For Example: Initial Equity: $10,000
Maximum Loss = 10% x $10,000 = $1,000
$10,000
$11,000
$11,000 - $10,000 = $1,000

$10,000
$8,500
$8,500 - $10,000 = -$1,500
-$1,500 ≤ -$1,000 Challenge has failed.
Click "Save".

Maximum Loss
The maximum cumulative loss allowed throughout the challenge.
Calculation Logic:
Net Equity: The system updates equity every 10 minutes. If the difference between current and initial equity exceeds the maximum loss threshold, the challenge will fail.
Profit and Loss (PNL): At the end of each day (00:00 challenge time zone), the system calculates the PNL of all closed trades in chronological order from the start of the challenge. If the total cumulative loss exceeds the maximum loss threshold, the challenge will fail.
Profit Target
The profit goal that must be achieved to successfully complete the challenge.
Calculation Logic: The system updates PNL every 10 minutes to check if the profit target has been met. Once the target is reached, at 00:00 in the challenge time zone, the system updates the challenge progress accordingly.
Free Repeat
Indicates whether clients can repeat the challenge at no additional cost.
To qualify for a free repeat, the client's closed trades PNL must be positive, and they must have met the minimum trading days and trading volume requirements without exceeding the maximum daily loss or maximum loss thresholds.
Maximum Retry Count
