How the TC Score is calculated
Every firm on MyFxKit carries a single number from 50 to 90 — the Trading Conditions Score. It compresses twelve hard inputs into one ranking that auto-updates the moment any firm changes terms or a new firm joins. Here is exactly what goes into it.
No prop firm pays to rank higher. The TC Score is computed from published trading conditions — the XAUUSD spread you'll actually pay, the per-trade risk cap that limits position size, the consistency rule that taxes a good day — weighted by how much each one moves a working trader's bottom line. Every input is scored against the live cohort: a firm at the cohort average sits near the middle. Add a firm, remove a firm, or change one published value, and every other firm's score rebalances automatically. The displayed number is then stretched to fit a 50–90 band so leaders look like leaders and the back of the pack stays readable.

Execution, Freedom, and Rules
Every input rolls up into one of three buckets. Execution carries the cost of every trade. Freedom captures the headroom your strategy gets. Rules covers the binding constraints that can stop a profitable account before payout.
Execution
XAUUSD spread and round-turn commission — the friction on every order.
Freedom
XAUUSD leverage, profit split, total drawdown headroom, plus news / EA / weekend allowances. How much room your strategy gets.
Rules
Profit target, daily drawdown, per-trade risk cap (FLR), and single-day consistency rule. What stops you out.
The twelve inputs that move the number
Each continuous input is normalised against the cohort mean ± 2σ before weighting. A firm at the median sits in the middle; better firms move up, worse firms move down. Booleans (news / EAs / weekend) collapse to a 1.0 or a 0.10 floor. Nothing scores zero — even the worst sub-score keeps a baseline of credit. The point weights below are the impact each input has on the raw 0–100 calculation before the final 50–90 stretch.
XAUUSD spread
Firm-wide pip cost on every gold trade. The biggest line in Execution.
Round-turn commission
Per-lot fee on top of spread. Varies by plan within a firm.
XAUUSD leverage
Maximum gold leverage decides the lots you can actually open at your equity.
Profit split
Share of trading profit the trader keeps after payout. Higher is better.
Total drawdown
Max overall loss allowed before the account is killed. Higher cap = more room.
News / EAs / weekend
Three boolean firm flags. Each blocked strategy lane subtracts a few points.
Profit target
Phase-1 target % — how much you have to make to advance.
Daily drawdown
Daily loss cap as % of balance — your headroom on any single bad day.
Per-trade risk cap (FLR)
Hard cap on how much you can lose on a single trade. From no rule (best) to a 2% hard cap or worse.
Consistency rule
Max % of total profits allowed from a single day. No rule means no penalty.
How it comes together
Each bucket produces a 0–100 sub-score from its normalised inputs. The TC Score is their weighted sum, then linearly stretched from the raw 30–70 working range onto the 50–90 display band.

The badge shifts colour across five bands so a glance tells you where a firm stands before you read a single column.
