Short answer: on the 2 Step Pro plan, our summary of Aqua Funded's public pages: profit target: Step 1 requires a 10% profit target; daily loss: Maximum daily loss is 5% of the prior day's balance/equity high; max loss / drawdown: Equity cannot fall more than 10% below its highest level; minimum trading days: No minimum trading days in the evaluation stages; profit split: Standard profit split is 90%. We read these on 2026-11-05 from the firm's public pages (links below). Rules change: check the firm's page before you trade.

Takeaway

For the example trader, the max loss rule is the one most likely to end this 2 Step Pro account, with a 30% chance that a loss rule breaks within 30 trading days against 67% for reaching the target first. Risking 0.75% per trade instead of 1% brings the 30-day chance down to 18%. Your own trades give different numbers: try them in the Prop Firm Rules Check.

What these rules mean in money

  • Account size used: US$100,000 (the size the firm's page gives its numbers for).
  • Daily loss room: US$5,000 = 5% of the account. At 1% risk per trade that is 5 full losses in one day; at 0.5% risk, 10.
  • Total loss room: US$10,000 = 10% of the account, trailing during the day (the floor follows your highest equity, even open profit). At 1% risk that is 10 losses in a row before the account ends.
  • Profit target US$10,000 vs total loss room US$10,000: you must make 1.00 times what you are allowed to lose.
  • The daily limit is 50% of the total loss room, so two bad days at the daily limit use up the account.

30 trading days30%67%

How the table is made: the same made-up trader on every firm page takes 4 trades a day, wins 45% of them, wins 1.5 times what a loss costs, and risks 1% of the starting balance per trade. We replayed 20,000 random 30-day runs against this firm's stated loss limits and target (first event wins; only closed trades counted, so real accounts with open-trade swings break limits more often). Real traders differ, so read these as a way to compare rule sets, not as a rating of any firm.
