| Program | Instant / 1-Phase / 2-Phase / BREAK What's this?One-step: one target, then funded. Two-step: pass phase 1, then a usually smaller phase 2 target. Two-step tests are often cheaper with looser loss limits. Glossary → |
|---|---|
| Account sizesAccount sizes on offer. | $5K to $200K (evaluations) ✓ Verified |
| PriceWhat you pay for the test. | 2-Phase shown at $40 / $80 / $219 / $369 / $619 by size; BREAK pay-when-pass $138 / $198 / $328 ✓ Verified What's this?What you pay to take the test. It's the firm's main revenue — most buyers never pass. Glossary → |
| Activation feeExtra fee after passing, before you trade funded. | Not verified What's this?An extra one-time fee some futures firms charge after you pass, before your funded account goes live. Glossary → |
| Profit targetProfit you need to pass. | 1-Phase 10%; 2-Phase 8% + 5% ✓ Verified Standard on some plansWhat's this?How much profit you must make to pass a test phase. On a $100k account a 10% target means reaching $110,000. Glossary → |
| Daily loss limitLose more than this in one day and you fail. | 1-Phase 4%; 2-Phase 5% ✓ Verified Standard on some plansWhat's this?The most you may lose in one trading day. With a 5% limit on $100k, dropping $5,000 in a single day fails the test — even if you're up overall. Glossary → |
| Max drawdownTotal loss floor — break it once and the account ends. | 1-Phase 6% trailing; 2-Phase 10% ✓ Verified StrictWhat's this?The total loss floor — break it once and the account is gone. On $100k: STATIC 10% → floor stays $90,000 forever. END-OF-DAY trailing $3k → floor $97k; close a day at $102k → floor moves to $99k (intraday swings ignored). INTRADAY trailing $3k → an open trade up $2k lifts the floor to $99k immediately; if it falls back to break-even you're $1k from failing. Glossary → |
| Consistency ruleCaps how much profit can come from one day. | BREAK funded: 40% at payout; none in evaluation ✓ Verified Strict on some plansWhat's this?Limits how much of your total profit can come from one day. With 40%: if you've made $5,000, your best day can be at most $2,000. Stops 'one lucky day' passes. Glossary → |
| Minimum trading daysFewest trading days before you can pass/get paid. | 0 ✓ Verified EasyWhat's this?The fewest days you must place trades before you can pass or get paid, even if you hit the target on day one. Glossary → |
| Time limitHow long you have to pass. | Indefinite ✓ Verified EasyWhat's this?How long you have to hit the target. 'Unlimited' means no deadline (some firms still require a trade every 30–60 days). Glossary → |
| Profit splitYour share of funded profits. | 80% funded; up to 90% via scaling ✓ Verified What's this?Your share of profits on a funded account. 80% split on $1,000 profit = you receive $800. Glossary → |
| Payout frequencyHow often you can withdraw. | Not verified What's this?How often you can withdraw profits — e.g. on demand, weekly, every 14 days. Glossary → |
