Simulated results
Three trader profiles, 10,000 simulated evaluations each against Goat Funded Trader'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.

Rules explained
How Goat Funded Trader's drawdown works
Goat Funded Trader uses a static drawdown of 10% of the starting balance. Static drawdown is the friendliest structure — the floor doesn't move as you profit. See trailing drawdown explained for the full mechanics.
How the daily loss limit is calculated
Goat Funded Trader caps intraday drawdown at 5% of the account. It's evaluated end-of-day on realised P&L, and a single losing session over the cap ends the challenge — not just the day.
Consistency rule
Goat Funded Trader has no consistency rule on the standard evaluation. See the consistency rule explained for the full mechanics and how it changes your real pass rate.
Is Goat Funded Trader worth it?
Goat runs aggressive promo pricing and a mid-generous rule set. One-phase Instant options are the marketing hook but come with tighter drawdown. Two-phase Standard is closer to FTMO. Payout track record is developing.
Frequently asked
What is Goat Funded Trader's trailing drawdown?+
Goat Funded Trader uses a static drawdown of 10% 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 Goat Funded Trader?+
Not a fixed number. Our simulator runs three archetypes against Goat Funded Trader's exact rules: the balanced 50%-win-rate trader passes 25.0% 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 Goat Funded Trader cost long-term?+
The mid-tier Goat Funded Trader evaluation is $220. Over 50 attempted challenges, our balanced-archetype simulation nets -$5.2k — that's eval fees paid on failures netted against payouts collected on the joint 13.6% of runs that reach a withdrawal.
Does Goat Funded Trader have a consistency rule?+
No consistency rule on the evaluation. Verify current terms — firms add and remove these rules regularly.
Is Goat Funded Trader worth it in 2026?+
Goat runs aggressive promo pricing and a mid-generous rule set. One-phase Instant options are the marketing hook but come with tighter drawdown. Two-phase Standard is closer to FTMO. Payout track record is developing.
