How it compares
Target ÷ max loss
2.40
You need 2.40 times the allowed loss in profit before you pass.
Break-even return
0.83%
Return needed on the funded account, at the starting split, for your share to cover the fee.
Cost per $100K
$660
Cheaper than the $1,100 median for $5K crypto challenges at other firms.
What the rules mean in practice
- To pass, grow the $5K account by $600 (12%) without breaking a loss limit.
- On any single day you can lose up to $150 (3%). Check Kraken Prop's rules for whether that is measured from the day's starting balance or equity, because open trades count.
- The account fails if you lose $250 (5%). This is static drawdown: the loss limit is fixed at a set distance below your starting balance and never moves.
- Consistency rule: None
- At the starting 80% split, you need about 0.83% return on the funded $5K account to earn back the $33 fee, before any other charges.
- Payouts: requested at any time from a funded account with no open positions or orders; each request is reviewed, usually within 12 hours and at most 24.
- The 5% maximum drawdown is fixed from the starting balance; the 3% daily loss is reset at 00:30 UTC.
- The 90/10 split upgrade adds 20% of the base fee and must be chosen at purchase.
