TradeDay’s 50K evaluation has the lowest profit-target-to-drawdown ratio of its three recorded account sizes. Its $3,000 target divided by $2,000 maximum drawdown equals 1.50. The 100K and 150K sizes each produce a 2.00 ratio.

Ratio table
| TradeDay size | Profit target | Maximum drawdown | Target ÷ drawdown |
|---|---|---|---|
| $50K | $3,000 | $2,000 | 1.50 |
| $100K | $6,000 | $3,000 | 2.00 |
| $150K | $9,000 | $4,500 | 2.00 |
The ratio measures how much profit must be produced for each dollar of maximum-loss room. It does not compare nominal balance. See the TradeDay audit for current program context.
How to interpret the ratio
A lower ratio means the stated target is closer relative to maximum drawdown. It does not automatically make an account easier because the route still has minimum-day, consistency and drawdown rules.
For every $1 of maximum drawdown:
- The 50K evaluation asks for $1.50 of target profit.
- The 100K evaluation asks for $2.00.
- The 150K evaluation asks for $2.00.
The 50K account is therefore more efficient on this single measure. The larger accounts provide more absolute drawdown, which may better fit strategies with larger dollar stops.
Add consistency to the comparison
TradeDay 2.0 records two main evaluation routes:
| Route | Minimum trading days | Evaluation consistency | Funded-path summary |
|---|---|---|---|
| Quick Pay | 5 | 30% | Day-one request path; share varies with net profit |
| Fast Pass | As few as 3 | 45% | EOD path requires five qualifying days and 45% consistency |
A target-to-drawdown ratio cannot show whether one large winning day increases the total profit needed under consistency. Traders should calculate both.
For a $1,500 best day:
- At 30% consistency, minimum total profit is $5,000.
- At 45% consistency, minimum total profit is $3,333.34.
If that required total exceeds the original target, consistency becomes the effective target.
Translate drawdown into trade attempts
Suppose the planned loss per trade is $200.
| Size | Maximum drawdown | Theoretical $200 losses |
|---|---|---|
| $50K | $2,000 | 10 |
| $100K | $3,000 | 15 |
| $150K | $4,500 | 22.5 |
This is only a budget illustration. A trader cannot take half a loss, and commission plus slippage reduce the real number of attempts. Trailing drawdown can also move, so the original allowance may not remain available.
A safer method is to reserve 20% to 30% of drawdown for costs, execution variation and ordinary error. Position size should be based on the live distance to the loss floor.
Quick Pay versus Fast Pass drawdown
TradeDay offers intraday and end-of-day configurations. An intraday trailing threshold can react to real-time equity highs, including open profit. An EOD threshold updates from the defined end-of-day reference.
That difference can affect a strategy that lets open gains retrace. The nominal drawdown amount may be identical while the practical room behaves differently.

Decision checklist
- Does the target-to-drawdown ratio fit the strategy?
- Is absolute drawdown large enough for normal stop size?
- Will a best day raise the effective consistency target?
- Is intraday or EOD drawdown a better mechanical fit?
- How many trading days are required?
- What profit-share path applies after progression?

Bottom line
The 50K evaluation offers the strongest target-to-drawdown ratio at 1.50. The 100K and 150K sizes both sit at 2.00, so the choice between them is mostly about absolute scale and position sizing. Combine the ratio with consistency and drawdown behavior before buying.
