This ranking measures one thing only: how likely you are to clear the evaluation. The biggest factor is the relationship between the profit target and the drawdown, because it defines the room you get: if you need to make $1,500 and you can lose $1,500 before the account is closed, you have as much space to be wrong as profit they ask for. When the target is double the drawdown, that room halves and the share of traders who make it drops accordingly.
After the ratio come four rules. Drawdown type: static stays put, EOD only recalculates at the close, and intraday follows you tick by tick including unrealised profit, so it can take you out without a single losing trade closed. The consistency rule caps how much you can make in one day — and the lower the percentage, the tighter the leash: at 30% you cannot make more than a third of the target in your best session. The daily loss limit ends your day, and at some firms the account outright. And time: some evaluations never expire, others end after 30 days.
An easy challenge tells you nothing about what comes next. Passing is the first step; then come the profit split, payout frequency, the buffer you must keep and the funded account drawdown. Some firms pair very soft evaluations with harsh withdrawal terms, and the other way round. If what you want is which account actually pays off for what you spend, the value-for-money ranking combines difficulty with price and with the funded phase terms.
Small accounts come out on top almost every time, and it is not a bias in the maths: firms make their 25K sizes proportionally softer than their 150K ones. In Apex Legacy, for instance, the 25K has a target/drawdown ratio of 1.00 while the 300K sits at 0.38. If you are after a specific size, the filter above recalculates the whole ranking for it.
First we work out the probability of passing the evaluation: drawdown ÷ (target + drawdown), adjusted for drawdown type, consistency rule, minimum days and daily loss limit. Then we score the funded account — profit split, payout frequency and withdrawal cap, buffer, rules and simultaneous accounts — on a scale with no fixed ceiling. Price is not part of that score: it is the divisor.
It divides the funded account's score by the expected cost of getting it: not the evaluation price, but that price times the attempts the plan needs on average, plus the activation fee, paid only once when you pass. That is what lets you compare accounts of different sizes and firms: the higher the ratio, the more account you get per dollar.

It depends on your profile. If you're looking for the lowest price, check the price ranking. If you prioritize the best overall conditions, use the value-for-money ranking. For beginner traders, the experience level ranking recommends affordable accounts to minimize risk while you learn.
