Trading fees
Trading fees: 0.04% of each buy or sell order on crypto markets and 0.02% on the eight non-crypto markets (since 29 October 2026), in the evaluation and once funded. They reduce the account's balance rather than being charged to you.

(checked 30 October 2026); Breakout · 50% Fee Cut on Non-Crypto Markets, Plus Gold on Breakout (checked 30 October 2026).
About this rule. The fees charged on each trade, such as maker and taker rates, and what they are a percentage of. They are not part of the account's price.
Funding and financing
Funding and financing: No funding payments: Breakout charges a fixed financing ("swap") fee of 0.033% of notional a day for each open position, taken in six parts every four hours on the Breakout Terminal.
Official sources: Breakout · Symbols (checked 31 October 2026); Breakout · How are swap fees charged on the Breakout terminal? (checked 31 October 2026).
About this rule. Periodic payments for holding a position: a perpetual contract's funding payments between long and short positions, or a financing fee the firm charges instead; how they are applied to the account, and whether they count towards the profit target and the loss limits.

Opening loss allowance
Opening loss allowance: $600
How this is calculated. Opening balance minus the opening total-loss floor.

- opening total-loss floor

Daily loss limits and any trailing of the floor after the opening are separate rules.
Official sources: Breakout · Buy an evaluation (checked 30 October 2026); Breakout · What is the maximum drawdown limit in a 1-Step Classic Breakout Evaluation? (checked 30 October 2026).
About this rule. How much the account can lose from its opening balance before the total-loss rule is broken, using the smallest allowance across the required evaluation phases. An account bought without an evaluation uses its funded account's allowance. It is not daily headroom, live capital or a pass probability.

Difficulty ratio
Difficulty ratio: 1.667
How this is calculated. For each required evaluation phase, the profit target divided by that phase's opening loss allowance. The results are added.
- profit target

- opening loss allowance
- $600

This describes the shape of the evaluation; it is not a pass probability.
Official sources: Breakout · Buy an evaluation (checked 30 October 2026); Breakout · What is the maximum drawdown limit in a 1-Step Classic Breakout Evaluation? (checked 30 October 2026).
About this rule. Each required phase's profit target divided by that phase's opening loss allowance, added together. More target per dollar of allowed loss gives a higher number; an account bought without an evaluation has no target, so its ratio is 0. It describes the shape of the evaluation, not the chance of passing.

Read the guide: How PFW's comparison pages summarize a route
Evaluation route
Evaluation route: 1-Step Classic $10,000, Breakout (crypto and other markets, simulated): the purchase portal's standard build with an 80/20 profit split, a 10% profit target, a 6% static maximum drawdown and a 3% daily loss limit, in one evaluation phase, then a funded account with Payward Oceanic, Ltd.

Total and daily loss
Total and daily loss: Maximum drawdown $600, 6% of the initial balance, static: the floor does not move as the balance grows. Maximum daily loss: 3% of the balance at 00:30 UTC, open positions left out, recalculated every day at that time. Equity that reaches or exceeds either limit is a breach: in the evaluation the account fails; once funded, terminal access ends 7 calendar days later. The same limits apply once funded, and requesting a payout widens that day's daily limit by the payout amount.

Leverage and position limits
Leverage and position limits: Leverage is set per market and applied automatically: 2x to 10x on crypto (BTC 10x) and 3x to 10x on the eight non-crypto markets.
