# Prop Firm Tracking
> Track prop firm evaluations and funded accounts — rules, drawdown, payouts, and analytics, all from your logged trades.
The **Prop Firm** page is a dedicated home for everything related to your prop firm challenges — evaluations, funded accounts, payouts, and fees — with live progress against each firm's rules. Open it from **Prop Firm** in the left-hand menu.
Everything on the Prop Firm page is computed from the trades you log against each account. There's no broker auto-sync — your numbers are as accurate as your trade logging.
## The four tabs
| Tab | What it shows |
| ---------------- | -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Dashboard** | Headline totals (funded balance, spent, earned, net + ROI), an ROI progression chart, and a finance breakdown by firm and account size |
| **Insights** | Passing & breach insights, plus trader-behavior analytics for your prop trades |
| **Accounts** | Your accounts grouped into **Evaluations**, **Funded**, **Breached**, and **Passed** |
| **Transactions** | Every payout and fee you've logged |
***
## Tracking an account
On the Prop Firm page, click **+ Track prop firm account** in the top right.
Pick whether you're starting an **Evaluation** or adding an account that's **Already funded**. The form adapts to show the right rules for each.
Selecting a firm template (TopStep, Apex, Lucid, MyFundedFutures, Take Profit Trader, and sizes) pre-fills that firm's typical rules. Every field stays editable — templates are a starting point, not a lock.
Enter the account size, drawdown, and any other rules (see below). Add the firm name, a nickname, start date, and your broker.
Click **Track account**. The account appears under the matching tab, and any evaluation fee you entered is logged automatically.
**Free plan** users share the app-wide limit of **1 trading account** (prop accounts count toward it). Once you're at the limit, the button becomes an **Upgrade** prompt. Pro unlocks unlimited accounts and the bulk **Quantity** field for creating several at once.
### Evaluation rules
| Field | What it's for |
| ---------------------- | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Account size** | The starting balance of the challenge (e.g. \$50,000) |
| **Drawdown type** | **Trailing (intraday)**, **Trailing (end of day)**, or **Static** |
| **Max drawdown** | The maximum loss allowed from your high-water mark (or from the start, for static) |
| **Daily loss limit** | The most you can lose in a single day (leave blank if the firm has none) |
| **Profit target** | The profit needed to pass the evaluation |
| **Min trading days** | The minimum number of distinct trading days required |
| **Consistency target** | The cap on how much of your total profit a single day may represent |
| **Evaluation fee** | What you paid for the challenge (logged as a transaction) |
### Funded payout rules
When you add an **Already funded** account (or pass an evaluation), the form swaps the eval-only fields for a **Payout rules** section, since funded accounts work differently:
| Field | What it's for |
| -------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Profit split** | Your share of profits on a payout (e.g. 90%) |
| **Payout buffer** | The profit cushion above your starting balance you must reach before withdrawing (the "safety net") |
| **Min profit / day** | The net profit a day must clear to count as a qualifying "winning day" |
| **Winning days to payout** | How many qualifying days you need before a payout |
| **Min / max payout** | The smallest and largest the firm will pay per request |
Funded accounts have **no profit target** — once funded, the goal shifts from passing to consistent payouts.
***
## Account cards
Each account shows a card with its balance and a progress bar for every rule that applies — drawdown used, worst-day loss, profit target, min trading days, and consistency. A **"would breach"** warning appears if your logged trades have crossed a hard limit.
Funded cards also show **Net to you** (your P\&L after the profit split), a **Payout buffer** bar (how close you are to being able to withdraw), and a **Winning days** bar.
The card's **action menu** (three dots) lets you **Add trade**, **Edit rules**, **Mark as passed → funded**, **Mark as breached**, **Log payout**, or **Delete**.
***
## Adding trades
Prop accounts are ordinary trading accounts, so they appear everywhere you'd select an account. To log trades against one:
* Use **Add trade** on the account's card, **or**
* Go to the **Trades** page → **Add Trade** and pick the account.
For Topstep or Tradovate accounts, the import flow offers a one-click CSV import; for others, you can import any CSV or log manually. See the [CSV import guides](/getting-started/import-trades-manual-csv).
Set the account's **broker** to Topstep or Tradovate so trade imports pre-select the right CSV format.
