What is Profit split
The share of a funded account's profit the trader receives — for example, 80%. The firm keeps the rest.
How it works
Example
A $5,000 monthly profit on an 80/20 split: $4,000 to you, $1,000 to the firm.
Common mistake
Comparing firms by split rather than by limit rules: 90% of a failed account is zero.
