Contracts a risk budget of $150 per trade allows — 10% of the $1,500 drawdown. Round down, never up.
The mistake that kills 25K accounts is sizing against the balance instead of the rule. $250 is 1% of this account — and 17% 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 $300 in your favour and closes flat still costs you $300 of cushion — permanently. Open profit is real money to this rule.
And the consistency rule: once you reach $1,500, no single day may exceed $450 or the payout waits. It is checked when you ask for the money, not when you take the trade.

Open Propbook →Apex 25K — FAQ
What is the maximum drawdown on a Apex 25K account?
$1,500, measured as intraday trailing — it follows your highest unrealised equity, and it stops moving once it reaches $25,100.
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 $1,500. Your own daily stop is the only one that exists — set one.
What is the profit target?
$1,500, or 100% of the drawdown you are given.
How many contracts should I trade on a 25K account?
Fewer than you think. With a risk budget of $150 per trade, a 20-point MNQ stop allows 3 contract(s). One NQ instead of MNQ multiplies that risk by ten.
Does Propbook track this account automatically?
Yes — pick Apex 25K from the presets and the drawdown type, maximum loss, consistency rule and target fill themselves in. It is free, with no account limit.
