Profit Target

Profit Target — The percentage gain required to pass a challenge phase, typically 5-10% per phase.

Full Definition

Profit target is the gain you must hit during the evaluation phase. FTMO Phase 1 requires 10%, Phase 2 requires 5%. Most 1-step models require a single 8-10% target. The target must be reached without violating any drawdown rules and (on most firms) within a 30-day calendar window.
