Setting Up Prop Challenges

The process for setting up a new prop challenge involves the following steps:

1. Creating A New Challenge

To create a new prop challenge, follow these steps:

Navigate to the "Challenge Settings" section and select "New Challenge."

2. Configuring Challenge Settings

To configure the challenge settings, follow these steps:

  1. Locate the challenge for which you want to configure settings and click the "Settings" icon.

  2. You can only configure the settings for challenges that are upcoming.

  3. Click "New Package" to create a new package. You can create multiple packages for a single challenge.

3. Challenge Allocation Across Client Groups

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:

  1. Locate the challenge/package and click the "Client Groups" icon.

  2. Select the client groups where the challenge and package will be visible.

  3. Click "Save."

If a challenge or package does not have any assigned client group, an "!" icon will remind you to make an assignment.

4. Calculation Logic for Maximum Daily Loss and Maximum Loss

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 EquityLatest EquityEquity Change Challenge Failed

$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.

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 EquityLatest EquityEquity Change Challenge Status

$10,000

$11,000

$11,000 - $10,000 = $1,000

$1,000 ≥ - $1,000 Challenge has not failed.

$10,000

$8,500

$8,500 - $10,000 = -$1,500

-$1,500 ≤ -$1,000 Challenge has failed.
