Can you copy trades on Apex accounts?
Copying between your own accounts is allowed and Apex offers its own copiers, but its rules forbid fully automated trading on PA and Live accounts and say they can't be run by a copy-trading service or mirroring software. Check with Apex before copying PA accounts: you answer for everything a copier does.
Checked on 26 September 2026 — Apex's rule. Rules change: check it before you copy.
PropSync copies your own lead account onto your own followers, in the same direction. It never copies someone else's trades. How PropSync works

Apex 250K drawdown calculator
Type your balance and your highest balance: you get your max-loss line, the room left and what is left to the target. $6,500 intraday trailing drawdown. The line trails your highest balance by $6,500 and stops trailing at $250,100.
How many contracts this account allows
| Contract | Per point | 10-pt stop | 20-pt stop | 40-pt stop |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MNQ | $2 | 32 | 16 | 8 |
| MES | $5 | 13 | 6 | 3 |
| MGC | $10 | 6 | 3 | 1 |
| NQ | $20 | 3 | 1 | 0 |
Contracts a risk budget of $650 per trade allows — 10% of the $6,500 drawdown. Round down, never up.
The mistake that kills 250K accounts is sizing against the balance instead of the rule. $2,500 is 1% of this account — and 38% of everything you are actually allowed to lose.
The one thing to watch
Your drawdown line follows your highest unrealised equity. A trade that runs $1,300 in your favour and closes flat still costs you $1,300 of cushion — permanently. Open profit is real money to this rule.
And the consistency rule: once you reach $15,000, no single day may exceed $4,500 or the payout waits. It is checked when you ask for the money, not when you take the trade.
Track this account free

Open Propbook →Apex 250K — FAQ
What is the maximum drawdown on a Apex 250K account?
$6,500, measured as intraday trailing — it follows your highest unrealised equity, and it stops moving once it reaches $250,100.
What is the daily loss limit?
Propbook's preset for this account carries no daily loss limit, which means a single bad session can consume the whole $6,500. Your own daily stop is the only one that exists — set one.
What is the profit target?
$15,000, or 231% of the drawdown you are given.
How many contracts should I trade on a 250K account?
Fewer than you think. With a risk budget of $650 per trade, a 20-point MNQ stop allows 16 contract(s). One NQ instead of MNQ multiplies that risk by ten.
Does Propbook track this account automatically?
Yes — pick Apex 250K from the presets and the drawdown type, maximum loss, consistency rule and target fill themselves in. It is free, with no account limit.
