  1. The financial overview chart provides a detailed snapshot of your prop business's financial performance, including key metrics such as profit, loss, profit-sharing payouts, participation fees, and the total funded amount.

    1. Broker's Profit = Total trading profit – total profit sharing paid to traders

    2. Broker's Loss = Equity at the time of challenge failure - Initial Amount

    3. Profit Sharing Payout = Total amount of profit sharing paid out to traders

    4. Participation Fee = Total participation fee collected from trader

    5. Total Funded Amount = Total funded amount of trading accounts

  2. The financial overview chart exclusively displays data from prop challenge stages where profit-sharing is enabled. If profit-sharing is not enabled, the corresponding data will neither be calculated nor shown.

  3. Hover your cursor over the chart to view detailed insights for each prop challenge.

  4. Tooltips have been added to the chart legend to provide further clarity on the figures. Simply hover over the "?" icon for explanations.

chevron-rightUse Cases for Financial Overview Charthashtag
  1. Evaluating the Success of Demo Challenges in Filtering Skilled Traders

    1. The chart helps you analyze your trader's profit and loss from live challenges to determine the effectiveness of the demo stage in identifying skilled traders.

      1. A higher broker profit in live challenges suggests that the demo stage successfully identified traders capable of generating profits in the live environment.

      2. Conversely, a higher level of broker losses may indicate that the demo stage did not effectively screen for skilled traders. This insight prompts you to adjust demo challenge parameters to ensure only qualified traders advance.

    2. By comparing revenue and loss across challenges, you can refine the demo-to-live transition process and improve their selection criteria for better outcomes.

  2. Evaluating Challenge Attractiveness

    1. You can analyze total participation fees collected across challenges to assess their appeal to your traders.

    2. Challenges with higher participation fee revenue indicate greater trader interest and engagement.

  3. Evaluating Risk Exposure and Return on Investment (ROI)

    1. The chart allows you to compare the total funded amount with the revenue generated for each challenge. Revenue is calculated as the sum of broker revenue and participation fees collected.

    2. A low ROI, where the total funded amount significantly exceeds the revenue generated, may indicate excessive risk exposure relative to returns.

hashtag
4. Participants Statistics

  1. The Participants Statistics charts provide a comprehensive view of your prop challenges' participant data, including key metrics such as unique participation, total challenges purchased, and the participation fees collected.

  2. Participant statistics include:

    • Purchased Challenges: The total number of challenges purchased, including multiple purchases by the same client.

    • Participation Fee: The total participation fee collected.

  3. You can toggle between Daily or Monthly data using the dropdown menu, allowing you to adjust the chart’s time frame to suit your analysis.

    • Selecting Daily will display data on a daily basis, giving you a detailed, day-by-day breakdown of participant statistics.

    • Choosing Monthly will show statistics summarized by month, providing a broader view of trends over time.

  4. Each chart comes with an expand or collapse feature, allowing you to adjust the display based on your needs.

    1. By clicking the expand icon, you can enlarge the chart to focus on detailed data.

    2. Conversely, you can click the collapse icon to minimizes the chart, giving you a more streamlined view of the dashboard.

    • Unselect All: Hides all challenges.

  7. Additionally, below the quick access buttons, you will see a list of prop challenges.

    1. You can select or unselect individual challenges to show or hide their data.

    2. Greyed-out challenges are hidden, while colored challenges are currently displayed on the chart.

chevron-rightUse Cases for Participants Statistics hashtag
  1. Unique Participants

    1. By analyzing the Unique Participants chart, you can evaluate the appeal and effectiveness of challenges based on the number of new participants they attract daily or each month.

    2. This comparison helps identify which challenges are consistently attracting attention and which may be losing popularity.

    3. If a challenge shows declining participation, you can adjust its parameters, such as difficulty level or rewards, to boost interest.

    4. Challenges with higher engagement can also be prioritized for marketing efforts, ensuring resources are focused on the most successful offerings.

  2. Purchased Challenges

    1. The Purchased Challenges chart reveals how often challenges are purchased daily or monthly, providing insight into client behavior and engagement.

    2. Comparing this data with the Unique Participants chart allows you to assess which challenges are driving repeat purchases.

  3. Participation Fee

    1. The Participation Fee chart tracks the total fees collected across different challenges, offering insights into the financial performance of each challenge.

    2. By analyzing this data, you can identify which challenges are generating the most revenue and assess their profitability and market appeal.

hashtag
5. Challenge Performance Statistics

  1. This chart displays the success and failure rates of your prop challenges across their various stages.

  2. You can select which prop challenge you would like to view performance statistics for by choosing it from the dropdown menu.

  3. The statistics are divided into two charts:

    • Successful Participants: Participants who successfully passed the challenge.

    • Unsuccessful Participants: Participants who failed to pass the challenge.

chevron-rightUse Cases for Challenge Performance Statisticshashtag

The Challenge Performance Statistics helps you analyze the success rates of each challenge, evaluating how well it filters skilled traders.

  • A high success rate with a low failure rate might suggest the challenge is too easy, requiring adjustments to ensure only highly skilled traders advance.

  • A high failure rate may indicate the challenge is appropriately difficult, but you might consider introducing repeat incentives to boost engagement while maintaining a challenging environment.

Underperforming challenges may signal issues with their structure or parameters, such as difficulty level, participation fees, or trading conditions, making them less attractive to traders.
  • With these insights, you can consider to:

    1. Adjust the parameters of underperforming challenges to enhance their appeal.

    2. Increase marketing efforts to raise awareness of these challenges.

  • This analysis enables you to refine your offerings and optimize strategies for attracting traders while maximizing revenue.

  • This imbalance suggests that you should reconsider your funding strategies, such as reducing the funded amount or lowering profit-sharing payouts, to optimize the ROI.
  • By aligning risk with profitability, you can enhance financial sustainability and ensure the long-term viability of your challenges.

  • Ongoing Only: Shows only ongoing challenges.
  • Terminated Only: Shows only terminated challenges.

  • To quickly find a specific challenge, use the search function to type the name of the challenge you wish to display or hide.

  • High purchase frequency by returning clients indicates strong retention and satisfaction.
  • Challenges with no repeat purchases may point to retention issues or lack of appeal. This data can help refine challenge offerings, pricing strategies, or incentive programs to improve client engagement.

  • Comparing fee revenue across challenges helps determine which pricing models or promotional strategies are most effective, guiding decisions on fee adjustments, marketing strategies, or the introduction of new challenge packages to maximize revenue and attract more participants.

  • Profit Sharing

    hashtag
    A) Profit Sharing Policies

    1. Profit sharing distribution enables you to disburse a percentage of your challengers' trading Profit and Loss (PNL) to both the challenger and their uplines.

    2. Profit sharing will not be distributed if the challengers' PNL is negative.

    3. Profit Sharing Disbursement Steps:

      • Profit Sharing Settlement: The system calculates the profit sharing amount to be paid out. Once this is completed, the challenger's trading account balance will be reset to the initial funding amount. For example, if a challenger profits $10,000 and profit sharing is distributed, the trading account balance will be reset to the initial funding balance.

      • Profit Sharing Payout: The calculated profit sharing amount is distributed to the challenger's CRM wallet.

    4. Profit Sharing Settlement Periods:

      • Every Fixed Number of Days: For instance, if set to 5 days, profit sharing distribution will occur every 5 days. If a challenger successfully passes a stage on January 10, the profit sharing distribution will occur on January 15.

      • On a Specific Day of the Month: For example, if set for the 25th of the month, profit sharing distribution will occur on the 25th of every month.

    5. Profit Sharing Methods

      • Manual Distribution: Requires manual review and approval before the profit sharing amount is distributed to the recipients' wallets.

      • Automatic Distribution: The system automatically distributes the profit sharing amount to the intended recipients' wallets without manual intervention.

    6. Profit Sharing to Uplines:

      Define which client types are eligible to receive profit sharing distribution (Traders or IBs). If selecting all clients, profit sharing will be paid out to uplines regardless of their client type. Choosing only "IBs" means that only uplines who are IBs will receive profit sharing, and uplines categorized as "Traders" will not receive any profit sharing.

    hashtag
    B) Manual Trigger for Profit Sharing Distribution

    You can manually initiate profit sharing settlement outside the scheduled settlement period. Do note that manual triggering of profit sharing is not possible if the challenger has open positions.

    To manually trigger profit sharing distribution, follow these steps:

    Prop Challenge Structure

    Here's an overview of the prop challenge structure:

    You have the flexibility to configure multiple prop challenges for your clients to participate in.

The challenge's complexity increases with the number of steps, providing clients with a progressively challenging experience before reaching the live funded stage.

    Additionally, you can set parameters such as profit targets, maximum drawdown, and more for each prop challenge. This customizable approach enables you to finely adjust the difficulty level and progression within your trading challenges.

    G) Calculation Logic for Maximum Daily Loss and Maximum Loss

    hashtag
    A) Maximum Daily Loss

    1. 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.

    2. 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

    Previous Day Equity
    Latest Equity
    Equity Change
    Challenge Failed

    hashtag
    B) Maximum Loss

    1. The CRM compares the latest obtained equity with the initial equity to determine if the trader has reached the maximum loss threshold.

    2. Challenge fails when: Latest Equity - Initial Equity ≤ - Maximum Loss

    For Example: Initial Equity: $10,000

    Maximum Loss = 10% x $10,000 = $1,000

    Initial Equity

    1. Minimum Days After Account Creation: The minimum number of days that must pass after a trader's account is created before they qualify for profit sharing. For example, if set to 5 days, profit sharing will only be considered after 5 days from the account creation date.

    2. Minimum Trading Days: The minimum number of days a trader must have placed trades before qualifying for profit sharing. For example, if set to 3 days, profit sharing will only be considered after the trader has placed trades on at least 3 separate days.

    3. You can configure these conditions with an "AND" or "OR" policy.

      1. The "AND" policy means both conditions must be fulfilled.

      2. The "OR" policy means either condition can be fulfilled.

    4. Minimum Profit: The minimum profit a trader must achieve to qualify for profit sharing. For example, if set to $1,000, the trader must have a closed P&L of at least $1,000, calculated as current balance - initial balance.

    5. Similarly, you can configure either "AND" policy or "OR" policy.

    6. Profitable Days: The number of profitable days required for a trader to be eligible for profit sharing.

      1. Profit: Defined as a percentage of the initial balance. For example, if the initial balance is $100,000 and the required percentage is 8%, the trader must make at least $8,000 in profit for the day to be counted as a profitable day.

      2. Number of Days: The minimum number of profitable days required.

  • 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.

  • Indicate the upline client types eligible to receive profit sharing distribution—either all client types or IBs only.

    • Profit and Loss (PNL): At the end of each day (00:00 challenge time zone), the PNL of all closed orders is calculated chronologically. If the total cumulative loss exceeds the maximum daily loss threshold, the challenge will fail.

    Please refer to this link for calculation examples:
