Nothing changes for your current account with this launch. It keeps its current rules, profit split and payout schedule.

If we move existing accounts to Day or Swing, we'll email you in advance, explain exactly what changes, and let you choose the account type that fits how you trade.

The account balance (not equity) must reach 10% profit relative to starting account balance. All positions must be closed.

Example:

The account balance (not equity) must reach 5% profit relative to starting account balance. All positions must be closed.

Example:

5%
Current equity or balance must not reach -5% of the challenge account size relative to the starting day's balance.

Example:

At any point within that day, the current equity or balance must not drop to $97,000.

10%
Current equity or balance must not reach -10% relative to the challenge account size. This is fixed and does not trail higher when you're in profit.

Example:

At any point during the evaluation, the current equity or balance must not drop to $90,000.

To maintain consistent risk management, traders must follow this guideline:

A trade idea is considered one idea if:

If trades are on different symbols or in opposite directions, they are treated as separate trade ideas.

On Swing, positions you hold over the weekend count toward this limit. A loss from a price gap when the market reopens counts toward the 2% limit, so size weekend positions with the gap in mind.

✅ Single Trade Idea (within limit):

❌ Single Trade Idea (over limit):

✅ Multiple Trade Ideas (independent losses):

In short: On a $50,000 account, no more than $1000 floating or closed loss may be allocated to a single trade idea, regardless of how many entries you use within it.

Remember, this rule is only applied in the funded phase.

News trading is fully permitted during the Challenge phase, with no restrictions in place.

News trading is allowed, but one critical guideline must be followed:

For the purpose of the 30% rule, a trade is classified as a "News Trade" based on specific timing relative to a Red Folder event affecting that specific asset.

The 10-Minute Window: A trade is considered a News Trade if it is opened, held, or closed within the window of:

All currency pairs linked to the news event are restricted, along with indices tied to the relevant currency's economic news.

These instruments are subject to the same news-trading guidelines and restrictions.

To accommodate traders who prefer not to micromanage positions around news events, 2-Step Day and Swing accounts may hold trades through such events under the following conditions:

Both rules must be followed for trades held through news events to remain compliant.

FundingTraders supports up to 1:50 leverage, with specific ratios for each instrument class to suit different trading strategies and manage risk appropriately.

This requirement helps ensure consistent trading behavior and proper risk management throughout the evaluation process.

Accounts with no trading activity for 30 days are closed. See General Trading Guidelines.

Every 21 or 14 days | The default first payout is available 21 days after the first trade on a funded account for the trading period.

14-Day Payout Add-On: If you have this add-on, you are eligible to receive your first payout just 14 days after the first trade on your funded account. This also applies to all subsequent payouts.

Day: a default profit split of 80% to the trader and 20% to the firm. For a higher payout, add-ons are available during checkout to increase the profit split to 90% or even 100%.

Swing: 70% on your first payout, 80% on your second and 90% from your third payout onward. See Swing Account: Profit Split That Grows above.

The refund is processed together with your second payout.

If you paid $149 for your evaluation and passed, your second payout will include the profit share you earned plus the $149 refund.

2-Step Day and Swing accounts are automatically reset to their initial balance while a payout request is being processed, allowing traders to continue trading without any interruption.

If an account fails within 48 hours of a payout request, the payout will be denied. The account will then be reinstated, and the payout amount will be credited back to the account balance.
