What Percentage of Prop Phase 1 Would a Coin Toss Pass? The Exact-Solution Answer Comes Out Above 50% [Analysis]
An exact calculation of the Phase 1 pass rate for a prop challenge using nothing but a ±¥200,000 coin toss. With zero fees, an 8% target / 10% max DD setup passes 55.6% of the time, and FTMO comes out at exactly 50.0%. With a 5% fee it drops to 43.2%, and it sinks into the 8% range for 1-step plans with a 3% daily DD. Compared with real-world pass rates of 5-14%, the average trader is losing to a coin toss.
