Prop Firm Risk
Use a readiness checklist before trusting an EA around prop rules.
A prop-aware EA should be judged by controls, observability, and repeatable testing. A single profitable backtest is not enough.
Search intent
The trader wants to know whether an EA draft is ready for prop challenge style testing.
Above-fold trial-intent marker: use after the free desk names one concrete blocker.
No-email quick start
Run the risk desk before asking for a readiness pass.
Open the free risk desk with drawdown rules, spread/session assumptions, exposure caps, and tester notes. Request the opt-in pass only when one concrete readiness blocker remains.
After useful output
Measure the trial path without pushing checkout too early.
Run the free desk first. If the output names a real blocker or next validation step, use the guide-specific review pass or compare Starter from this same page so trial intent stays attached to the resource.
Active prop readiness lane
Turn this checklist into a concrete risk-readiness pass.
This page has support-to-content signal but no visible lead conversion yet. Use the free risk desk first, then opt in only if the EA has a concrete drawdown, spread, exposure, or tester-evidence blocker to review.
Measure the prop-readiness guide-to-desk handoff
Open the risk desk from this checklist so the handoff records the prop-readiness resource, then request the risk pass only when a real drawdown, spread, exposure, or tester-evidence blocker remains.
Run prop risk deskTrial-to-pricing handoff
If the risk-readiness pass clarifies the next validation step, continue to pricing from this exact checklist so trial-to-pricing interest is measurable.
Compare Starter after risk passProp readiness pass for this guide
Opt in only if this checklist exposed a real risk/readiness blocker. Send the EA rule set, daily loss/max drawdown cap, risk per trade, spread/session filter, tester evidence, and blocked-trade notes.
Lead activation handoff
No email wait is required. After saving the opt-in, continue into the free desk with the same blocker so the visitor-to-lead-to-workflow path is measurable.

Prop readiness scorecard
Score the blocker before a trial or checkout step.
The useful conversion on this page is a concrete risk-readiness pass, not a broad promise that an EA is safe. Use the scorecard to decide whether the next step is the free risk desk, an opt-in blocker pass, or more Strategy Tester evidence.
Rule fit
Blocked if the EA does not expose the daily loss baseline, max drawdown rule, risk per trade, and exposure cap as explicit inputs.
Pass when the rules are visible in inputs, logs, and tester notes before any checkout step.
Execution fit
Blocked if spread, session, stop-distance, lot-step, or unsupported filling-mode rules can silently prevent trades.
Pass when blocked-trade reasons are logged and the risk desk can inspect the exact filter that stopped entry.
Tester fit
Blocked if the only evidence is one favorable backtest, a screenshot, or a result without set file and model context.
Pass when Strategy Tester evidence includes symbol, period, spread/model, set file, and trade-count context.
Review fit
Blocked if the request asks Workfusionapp to approve performance, manage trading, or decide whether an account should trade.
Pass when the request stays limited to software diagnostics, readiness gaps, and the next manual validation step.
Prop readiness scorecard review
Use this after the scorecard exposes one concrete blocker. Send only the rule, risk cap, spread/session assumption, tester evidence, and blocked-trade note that needs manual review.
Lead activation handoff
No email wait is required. After saving the opt-in, continue into the free desk with the same blocker so the visitor-to-lead-to-workflow path is measurable.

Software readiness
The EA should compile cleanly, expose inputs, and log why it trades or blocks.
Risk readiness
Daily loss, max drawdown, spread, exposure, cooldown, and lot sizing should be explicit.
Evidence readiness
Testing should include more than one short favorable period. Keep reports and set files together.
Breakout EA risk handoff
For an XAUUSD breakout idea, capture tester evidence before calling the EA ready. The useful handoff is the rule set, the risk limits, the blocked-trade reasons, and the Strategy Tester evidence that shows how often the setup trades across different spread and session conditions.
