How to get the most from a free prop firm trial

A free $100K trial with real rules is the cheapest training you will ever get. A two-week plan to use it as a dress rehearsal for a paid challenge.

By the Axora Funded Research Team

The Axora free trial gives you a $100,000 demo account for 14 days, with the same rules as phase 1 of the 2-Step: 10% target, 4% daily loss, 8% maximum loss and the consistency rule. No card is needed. Used well, it tells you whether you are ready for a paid challenge.

Treat it as real

The biggest mistake is trading the trial like a game: oversizing because 'it is free'. You learn nothing from that. Use exactly the risk per trade and the routine you would use on a paid account.

A two-week plan

  • Days 1–3: one market, your main setup, 0.5% risk. Learn the platform and the objectives panel.
  • Days 4–10: add your second market if you have one. Keep a journal of every trade.
  • Days 11–14: review. Did you hit a daily stop? Did you break any rule?

Questions to answer at the end

  • How many trading days did I need, and how much did I make per good day?
  • What was my worst day as a % of the account?
  • Did my best day exceed half of my total profit?
  • Which rule was closest to failing me?

If you passed or got close without rule breaks, a paid challenge is a reasonable next step. Trial accounts that end can receive a personal discount on a paid challenge for a limited time.
