How do I track a prop firm evaluation?
Track current balance or equity, remaining profit target, daily loss room, and overall drawdown room.
Tool 5
Evaluation Progress Tracker
See how close you are to the target and how much room you still have.
An evaluation tracker helps you stay objective. It shows progress toward the target, remaining target amount, drawdown room, and the average amount still needed per remaining day.

Example Walkthrough
If the account started at $100,000 and is now $103,250 with an $8,000 target, the trader is 40.63% of the way there. The point is to stay calm and protect the account while moving toward the target.
Common Mistakes
- Only watching the target and ignoring drawdown room.
- Forcing trades when behind schedule.
- Increasing size after a good day.
- Not updating the tracker after every trading day.
Checklist After Each Day
- I updated current balance/equity.
- I know the remaining target.
- I know current drawdown room.
- I am not increasing risk just because I am close.
FAQ
Why should I track progress daily?
Daily tracking helps traders avoid guessing and overtrading when they are close to the target or close to a rule limit.
Should I increase size when close to passing?
Usually no. Increasing size near the target can turn a good challenge into a fast failure.
What matters more: target or drawdown room?
Both matter, but drawdown room protects the account. You cannot reach the target after breaking the rules.
