Overview
CoinProp is a crypto proprietary trading firm. We offer traders access to simulated funded accounts of up to $400,000 through a 1-step evaluation model. No personal capital is deposited or traded. Traders pay an evaluation fee, prove their edge under defined rules, and receive a simulated funded account with performance-based payouts.
Pass the evaluation. Get funded. Keep up to 95% of your profits.
All trading takes place on CoinProp's CPX terminal, powered by TradingView Advanced charting and Bybit perpetuals liquidity.

Definitions
Balance
The total account value based on closed realized P&L only. Does not include open positions.
Equity
The real-time account value including both closed P&L and the unrealized P&L of all open positions. Equity = Balance + Unrealized P&L.
Max Loss Limit (MLL)
A fixed absolute floor set permanently at 6% below your initial account balance. Never moves regardless of profits or payouts.
Daily Loss Limit (DLL)
A fixed dollar amount equal to 3% of your initial account balance. The floor it creates follows your current equity and resets at every 00:00 UTC rollover.
Breach
The automatic closure of all open positions and permanent termination of the account. Cannot be recovered, reset, or appealed.
Profit Target
The account growth required to pass the evaluation, expressed as a percentage of the starting balance. Applies to the evaluation stage only.
Qualifying Trading Day
A day where at least one position is closed on that UTC day, with margin committed of at least 5% of the initial account balance, held open for at least 1 minute. The day that counts is the day the position closes, not the day it opens. For funded accounts, the trader's total realized PnL for that UTC day must also move the account by at least ±0.3% of the initial account balance. Learn more
Drawdown Limits
Every CoinProp account has two drawdown limits active at all times, in both the evaluation and funded stages:
Max Loss Limit — a permanent absolute floor set at 6% below the initial account balance. Never moves.
Daily Loss Limit — a fixed dollar amount that follows current equity and resets every 00:00 UTC.
Visual — $10,000 Account
Max Loss Limit
$9,400
Fixed at −6% forever
Daily Loss Limit
$300
Fixed dollar, floor resets daily
Daily Loss Limit
The Daily Loss Limit is a fixed dollar amount equal to 3% of your initial account balance. This dollar amount never changes. The floor it creates follows your current equity. At every 00:00 UTC rollover, the system takes your current equity and subtracts the fixed DLL dollar amount to set your floor for that day.
Example — $10,000 account
Daily Loss Limit = $300 (fixed forever)
The dollar amount is fixed for the life of the account
The floor resets every day at 00:00 UTC based on current equity
Equity includes floating P&L from open positions
Even a momentary touch of the floor triggers a breach
Max Loss Limit
The Max Loss Limit is a permanent absolute floor set at 6% below your initial account balance. It is set once at account creation and never changes, regardless of how high your account grows or how many payouts you take.
Signature MLL floors (6%)
| Account Size | MLL Floor |
|---|---|
| $5,000 | $4,700 |
| $10,000 | $9,400 |
| $25,000 | $23,500 |
| $50,000 | $47,000 |
| $100,000 | $94,000 |
Breach Rules
A breach occurs when your account equity reaches or falls below either the Max Loss Limit or the Daily Loss Limit floor.
What happens on breach
All open positions are immediately closed
The account is permanently disabled
No further trading is possible on that account
No payouts are available from a breached account
Breaches are permanent. There are no resets, appeals, or exceptions.
You do not need to close a trade for a breach to occur. Floating P&L on open positions counts toward your equity.
You are never liable for losses beyond your evaluation fee. A breach simply means the account is closed.
To try again, purchase a new evaluation at any time.
Profit Target
To pass the evaluation and receive a funded account, you must grow your account balance by 9% of the initial balance. The profit target applies only to the evaluation stage. Funded accounts have no profit target.
Profit Target
9%| Account Size | Profit Target | Grow Account To |
|---|---|---|
| $5,000 | $450 | $5,450 |
| $10,000 | $900 | $10,900 |
| $25,000 | $2,250 | $27,250 |
| $50,000 | $4,500 | $54,500 |
| $100,000 | $9,000 | $109,000 |
With Extended Drawdown add-on — 10% target
Profit Target
10%| Account Size | Profit Target | Grow Account To |
|---|---|---|
| $5,000 | $500 | $5,500 |
| $10,000 | $1,000 | $11,000 |
| $25,000 | $2,500 | $27,500 |
| $50,000 | $5,000 | $55,000 |
| $100,000 | $10,000 | $110,000 |
The profit target is based on balance (closed P&L). You must close trades to realize profit.
There is no time limit to reach the profit target.
A minimum of 2 qualifying trading days is required to pass.
Once your balance reaches or exceeds the target, the evaluation passes automatically.
Funded Account Rules
Upon passing the evaluation, you receive a simulated funded account with the same starting balance.

Prohibited Conduct
The following conduct is prohibited and will result in immediate account termination.
Exploiting platform bugs or price feed anomalies for profit
Simulation fidelity exploitation — taking advantage of known or discoverable gaps in CPX's simulation engine, including absent spread or slippage fees, unenforced position size limits, or any condition where simulated execution materially deviates from real market conditions. Profits generated under such conditions are not eligible for payout. CoinProp reserves the right to recalculate adjusted P&L using real market data and deny payouts where simulation gaps are determined to have been a material factor in reported profit.
Account sharing or selling — each account is tied to one individual
Identity fraud — providing false information during registration or KYC
Opposite hedging across accounts — opening opposing positions across two or more CoinProp accounts to guarantee one passes
Third-party coordination — coordinating trades with other traders to exploit drawdown mechanics
Account cycling — repeatedly purchasing evaluations to place maximum-risk binary bets
Simulated or wash trading — executing trades with no genuine market risk to inflate metrics
Identity Verification
Not Required For
Purchasing an evaluation
Starting to trade
Accessing the platform
Required Before
KYC is required before your funded account is activated. Once you pass the evaluation, you must complete identity verification before you can access your funded account. Trading and payouts are not available until verification is complete.
Verification is handled through Veriff and can be completed from your dashboard. Accepted documents: valid government-issued passport, national ID card, or driver's license.
Account Limits
A trader may hold up to 4 active accounts simultaneously, with a maximum combined balance of $200,000 across all evaluation and funded accounts. This limit applies during the evaluation stage as well as after funding.

Trade Execution
CoinProp operates a simulated trading environment with live market data, real spreads, and real position limits, but no actual capital at risk. The experience is as close to live trading as possible by design. The funds in your account are notional and have no economic value. The trades you place through CPX are simulated trades designed to mimic real market conditions but do not involve the buying or selling of digital assets on-chain with actual third parties.
All market orders are subject to a spread fee calculated at the time of order submission based on live Bybit order book depth for the pair and position size. The spread fee reflects the real cost of crossing the bid/ask spread in live markets and is charged on every fill. Position sizes are capped at Bybit's official maxMktOrderQty for each pair, which is enforced at order submission. Trades that would exceed this limit will be rejected. Both the spread fee and maximum position size are displayed in the order confirmation panel before execution.
Fees & Costs
A one-time non-refundable evaluation fee is paid to activate an evaluation account. See Section 2 for pricing.
| Fee Type | Rate |
|---|---|
| Market order | 0.03% per side |
| Trigger order | 0.03% per side |
| Slippage | Variable — live Bybit order book |
| Swap fees | None |
| Funding fees | None |
Risk Acknowledgment
By purchasing a CoinProp evaluation, you acknowledge and accept the following:
Most traders do not pass on their first attempt. The evaluation is designed to be challenging. There is no guarantee of success.
Evaluation fees are non-refundable once the account is activated.
Funded accounts can be breached. Even after passing, your funded account is subject to the same drawdown rules and can be permanently closed at any time.
Past performance is not indicative of future results.
Crypto markets are volatile. Prices can move rapidly and unpredictably.
Leverage amplifies risk. Higher leverage means larger potential losses relative to account size.
You are not trading real capital. You do not own the funded account or any positions within it. You are eligible for performance-based payouts only.
CoinProp may modify these rules with reasonable notice. Active funded accounts will be governed by the rules in effect at the time of account activation unless otherwise stated.
