How many contracts this account allows
| Contract | Per point | 10-pt stop | 20-pt stop | 40-pt stop |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| MNQ | $2 | 10 | 5 | 2 |
| MES | $5 | 4 | 2 | 1 |

Contracts a risk budget of $200 per trade allows — 10% of the $2,000 drawdown. Round down, never up.
The mistake that kills 50K accounts is sizing against the balance instead of the rule. $500 is 1% of this account — and 25% of everything you are actually allowed to lose.
The one thing to watch
Your drawdown line follows your closing balance, so intraday swings cost you nothing in cushion. What it does mean: every new equity high at the close raises the floor under you, and it keeps rising until it reaches $50,000.

Open Propbook →Elite Trader Funding 50K — FAQ
What is the maximum drawdown on a Elite Trader Funding 50K account?
$2,000, measured as end-of-day trailing — it follows your closing balance, and it stops moving once it reaches $50,000.
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 $2,000. Your own daily stop is the only one that exists — set one.
What is the profit target?
$3,000, or 150% of the drawdown you are given.
How many contracts should I trade on a 50K account?
Fewer than you think. With a risk budget of $200 per trade, a 20-point MNQ stop allows 5 contract(s). One NQ instead of MNQ multiplies that risk by ten.
Does Propbook track this account automatically?
Yes — pick Elite Trader Funding 50K from the presets and the drawdown type, maximum loss and target fill themselves in. It is free, with no account limit.
