The replay produced $34,657 net after three attempts and two breaches. Crypto Fund Trader ranked second at $26,127, followed by FundingPips at $20,127. This is the profit-maximising view; the 0.5% table remains the capital-preserving view.

Model limits

PropQuant Lab currently replays closed trade P&L by day. It does not reconstruct intraday open-equity drawdown, and its CSV importer does not treat commission and swap as separate fields. Before purchasing a challenge, repeat the analysis with the prop broker’s exact XAUUSD contract and an equity-level statement.
