Pass Funded Account Evaluations Faster

Pass Evaluation Accounts Sooner

January 29, 20262 min read
  • Portfolios beat single strategies. You grabbed 9 settings out of ~300 and tested them as a portfolio to see how they “play nice” together, not just how one bot performs alone.

  • Drawdown matters more than hype profit. The first run showed big profit, but the drawdown (e.g., ~$10K+) would blow up a typical funded account, so profit is meaningless if it can’t survive the rules.

  • Consistency > win rate. You can be profitable with a 34–47% win rate (around 40%) as long as the system is consistent and risk is controlled.

  • Risk per trade drives everything. Sorting by risk showed the portfolio ranges roughly $150–$500 risk/trade (avg ~$336). Higher risk tends to increase net profit, but can violate funded constraints.

  • Match the funded account math. Example: a common 50K eval target is $3,000 profit goal with about -$2,500 drawdown. Your portfolio has to fit inside that box.

  • Portfolio Generator is the “cheat code.” If your selected settings exceed your drawdown limits, you can generate every combination (ex: 3–8 strategies out of the 9) and filter for portfolios that hit targets like $2,000 drawdown while still producing strong profit.

  • PA accounts unlock payouts. Once the eval goal is hit, you enter a PA (Performance Account) where payouts become possible. Extra profit beyond the goal isn’t wasted, it becomes payout potential.

  • Funded accounts magnify ROI. A “100% return” on a theoretical $50K account is one thing, but the real leverage is paying $20–$50/month for evaluations and scaling across multiple accounts (up to 20).

  • Blowing up accounts isn’t automatically failure. In the funded model, eval resets and occasional failures can be “cost of doing business,” especially when you’re running multiple accounts and tracking total payouts.

  • Social proof + time savings: Solomon’s key points were minimal time investment (setup in ~30 minutes, build another portfolio in ~30 minutes) and that the tools help focus on vetted strategies instead of endless guessing.

  • Offer recap: Jump Start program includes 8 bots, 300 configs, portfolio tools, trade copier, account dashboard, weekly classes, ongoing updates with webinar pricing $899 down + $150/mo (vs higher competitor pricing).
