The short answer
One Step asks for 6% in a single phase. Two Step asks for 8% total, split 3% then 5% across two phases. Instant 24h asks for 3% inside a 24-hour window. Instant and Instant Pro have no profit target at all. Every target is measured as a percentage gain over your starting balance.
Your profit target is how much you need to grow your account to clear an evaluation phase. It is the only positive objective you have to meet, and it differs by product. Below is the exact target for each, plus how it is calculated.
Profit targets at a glance

Two Step | 8% total (3% then 5%) | 2 | None |

One Step: 6% in one phase
One Step has a single evaluation phase with a 6% profit target. Grow your starting balance by 6% while staying inside the drawdown rules, trade on at least two separate days, and you pass. There is no time limit, so you can take the days or weeks you need.
On a $5,000 account, 6% is $300 of profit. On a $100,000 account it is $6,000. The percentage is fixed regardless of account size.
Two Step: 3% then 5%
Two Step splits its 8% total target across two phases. You need 3% in phase one, then 5% in phase two. You move to phase two only after clearing phase one, and each target is measured against the same starting balance.
There is no minimum number of trading days and no time limit on either phase, so you can work at your own pace. The lower first-phase target is designed to ease you in before the larger second-phase objective.
Instant accounts: no target
Instant and Instant Pro have no profit target. There is no phase to clear and nothing to hit before you can request a reward. Instead of proving yourself against a target, you simply trade within the drawdown rules, and your share of the profit you generate is yours to withdraw.
This is the trade-off of the Instant range: you skip the evaluation gate entirely, but the risk rules (4% daily drawdown, 7% trailing maximum drawdown, and a single-trade loss cap) are what keep the account healthy in place of a target.
Instant 24h: 3% in 24 hours
Instant 24h is the one exception in the Instant family. It carries a 3% profit target, and the difference is the clock: that 3% must be reached within a 24-hour window. It is built for fast, decisive trading rather than a slow grind.
The window and the tighter risk parameters (2% daily drawdown, 3% trailing maximum drawdown, 1% single-trade loss) work together, so this product rewards precision. See the dedicated Instant 24h article for exactly how the window starts and counts.
How the target is calculated
Every target is a straight percentage gain over your starting balance, not over your current equity. To find the dollar figure, multiply your starting balance by the target percentage.
One Step on $50,000: 6% means a $3,000 gain, so the goal is $53,000.
Two Step phase one on $50,000: 3% means a $1,500 gain, so the goal is $51,500.
Two Step phase two on $50,000: 5% means a $2,500 gain, so the goal is $52,500.
Once you pass
Hitting your target unlocks rewards on a 90% trader and 10% firm split, fixed at every account size, and your evaluation fee is refunded on your first reward payout.
Your live target, current balance, and progress toward it are always shown on your dashboard, so you never have to do the math in your head. Most evaluations do not pass, and a clear target is there to give you a defined, honest finish line.
