Easiest Prop Firms to Pass (2026)

Not all evaluations are built the same. Some firms run EOD drawdown with no consistency rule and a 5% profit target — making them realistically beatable for a disciplined trader inside 10 days. Others stack intraday trailing drawdown, a 30% consistency rule, and an 8% target — a combination that fails 80%+ of first-time applicants regardless of skill.

This ranking combines three factors into a single pass-difficulty score: drawdown model strictness (weight: 3x), consistency rule leniency (2x), and profit target size (1x). Lower score means easier to pass. We update the score automatically whenever a firm changes its rules, so the ranking stays honest rather than reflecting last year's landscape.

Before committing: "easy to pass" doesn't always mean "best firm." Some of the most forgiving evaluations tighten up considerably once you're funded.

Frequently Asked Questions

What makes a prop firm evaluation 'easy'?

Four factors: drawdown model (EOD/Static beat trailing), consistency rule (no rule beats a 30% rule), profit target size (smaller percentages are easier), and minimum trading days (fewer days = faster pass). Firms at the top of this list score best across all four.

Is 'easy to pass' the same as 'good firm'?

Not exactly. Easier evaluations sometimes have stricter funded-phase rules or smaller profit splits. The top picks here are firms that are BOTH lenient on evaluation AND fair on the funded side.

Which drawdown model is easiest?

Static drawdown (floor never moves) is most forgiving. EOD trailing is second-most. Intraday trailing is the strictest — any unrealized equity peak permanently tightens your floor.

Can I pass 'easy' firms in a single day?

Most firms enforce a minimum of 3-10 trading days before passing regardless of how fast you hit target. See our how-to-pass-fast guide for the realistic 7-14 day framework.
