Take Profit Trader evaluation rules
The rules that decide whether you pass Take Profit Trader's Test evaluation, from Take Profit Trader's own pages unless the sources say otherwise, checked Oct 17, 2026.
Test
| Size | Target | Max loss | Trailing | Locks at | Daily loss limit | Consistency | Min days | Minis / micros | Time limit | Price |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50K | $3,000 | $2,000 | End of day | Start | None | 50% | 3 | 6 / 60 | None | $170/mo |
| 100K | $6,000 | $3,000 | End of day | Start | None | 50% | 3 | 12 / 120 | None | $330/mo |
| 150K | $9,000 | $4,500 | End of day | Start | None | 50% | 3 | 15 / 150 | None | $360/mo |
- End-of-day trailing drawdown that stops at the starting balance. TPT's rule page says it is calculated at the end of the day, and also that touching it at any time, including open losses, liquidates the account; the replay uses that stricter reading.
- Best day must be under 50% of total net profit; going over raises the goal. Minimum 3 trading days (TPT's older help site still says 5).
- No daily loss limit on Test or PRO accounts. (An older TPT help page still lists one.)
- Monthly prices and Test reset fees are from a guide checked Oct 14, 2026. The $130 PRO activation fee is from TPT's site.
Commissions in the evaluation
Round trip per contract, as charged in each replay of this firm.
| Platform | ES | NQ | MES | MNQ | CL | GC |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| All | $4.50 | $4.50 | $1.50 | $1.50 | $4.50 | $4.50 |
- Take Profit Trader charges $4.50 per contract and $1.50 per micro, round trip, on every permitted product, on Test and PRO accounts, since Aug 9, 2026 (Tradovate accounts, and Rithmic accounts opened after Aug 8). Older Rithmic accounts may still pay $5.00 / $0.50, the rate on TPT's older help page.
