Answers sourced from Crypto Fund Trader’s own help center.
One-time-purchase evaluations built for crypto traders, with a one-step 'Break' challenge and Instant funding options from $5K upward. You can trade crypto (majors, altcoins, DeFi, and meme coins), plus forex, indices, commodities, and stocks, on the CFT Match-Trader platform, MetaTrader 5, or a Bybit sub-account.
The Break 1-Step challenge uses an 8% target with 5% daily and 10% max drawdown. The Instant accounts carry a 10% target with 4% daily and 6% max drawdown. The overall firm defaults are a 10% target and 6%/4% drawdown depending on plan.
80% of profits. You become eligible for a payout after 15 active trading days or 30 calendar days, whichever the plan specifies.
Only USDT trading pairs count — trades on USDC pairs are not credited toward your simulated profit — and spot trading is prohibited (futures only). You may not add, deposit, or transfer any extra funds into the assigned sub-account, and you must never disconnect, modify, or interfere with the assigned API connection.
Opening opposite positions on the same instrument at the same time and holding them together for 60 seconds or longer is not allowed. In other words, you cannot sit hedged in both directions to game the drawdown — you must commit to a direction.
No. CFT prohibits gambling-style or all-in behaviour and caps the maximum simulated profit allowed per day and per trade, so a single oversized bet cannot carry the account.
High-frequency trading (bots or algorithms firing large numbers of trades), tick scalping (opening and closing trades extremely quickly), and arbitrage strategies — including bots designed to exploit the simulated trading environment — are all prohibited.
