Simulated results
Three trader profiles, 10,000 simulated evaluations each against Bulenox's exact rules. Pass rate is the eval only. Payout is conditional on passing. Joint withdrawal is the probability of reaching a first payout end-to-end. P&L is expected value over 50 attempted challenges at the mid-tier account.
Why traders fail this challenge
Failure breakdown from the balanced-archetype simulation. This is what typically ends a Bulenox run — not what traders think ends it.
Rules explained
How Bulenox's drawdown works
Bulenox uses a trailing (eod) drawdown of 5% of the starting balance. End-of-day trailing only ratchets against your closing equity, which is materially easier than intraday trailing. See trailing drawdown explained for the full mechanics.
How the daily loss limit is calculated
Bulenox has no daily loss limit on the standard evaluation, which is unusually forgiving. The trade-off is that the max-drawdown gate does more of the work of ending losing runs.
Consistency rule
Bulenox caps single-day profit at 30% of total challenge profit. It doesn't fail you at target — it extends the challenge until your best day falls under the cap. See the consistency rule explained for the full mechanics and how it changes your real pass rate.
Is Bulenox worth it?
Bulenox runs Apex-like rules at aggressive promo prices — the reason many high-volume traders test strategies here first. Trailing drawdown is the killer; passing is one thing, but stacking payouts on the funded side is where most traders leak edge.
Frequently asked
What is Bulenox's trailing drawdown?+
Bulenox uses a trailing (eod) drawdown of 5% of the starting balance. This is the single biggest driver of long-run pass rate for most traders.
What win rate do you need to pass Bulenox?+
Not a fixed number. Our simulator runs three archetypes against Bulenox's exact rules: the balanced 50%-win-rate trader passes 58.6% of the time; the scalper archetype and swing archetype produce meaningfully different numbers on the firm page above. Passing is a function of edge, variance, and how the ruleset punishes lumpy P&L — not win rate in isolation.
How much does Bulenox cost long-term?+
The mid-tier Bulenox evaluation is $105. Over 50 attempted challenges, our balanced-archetype simulation nets $40k — that's eval fees paid on failures netted against payouts collected on the joint 18.7% of runs that reach a withdrawal.
Does Bulenox have a consistency rule?+
Yes — no single day's profit can exceed 30% of total challenge profit. High reward-to-risk strategies are penalised most because their P&L is concentrated in fewer, larger winners.
Is Bulenox worth it in 2026?+
Bulenox runs Apex-like rules at aggressive promo prices — the reason many high-volume traders test strategies here first. Trailing drawdown is the killer; passing is one thing, but stacking payouts on the funded side is where most traders leak edge.
