Factual information, not advice. Every company is measured the same way, against published criteria. Nothing here recommends a firm, plan or trade, or knows your circumstances.

Rules score out of 10Plus the biggest safe size, in micro contracts.

A full-size contract moves ten times as much as a micro, so on a few thousand dollars of drawdown most accounts only fit micros.
