What is a one-step challenge?

A one-step challenge is an evaluation with a single phase. Traders must hit a profit target without breaching drawdown rules to receive a funded account.

Are one-step challenges easier to pass?

They can be — fewer phases means less time spent in evaluation, though profit targets per phase can be similar to multi-step programs.

Do one-step challenges have worse payout terms?

Not necessarily. Many firms offer competitive profit splits on one-step programs, comparable to two-step alternatives.
