Evaluation only — 50K $3,000; 100K $6,000; 150K $9,000. No profit target on Sim-Funded.

None — straight-to-funded, there is no evaluation phase

EOD trailing, locks at Initial Simulated Capital — 50K $3,000; 100K $4,500; 150K $6,000. Equity cannot hit the limit. The limit only rises. After a breach, pay a Reset Fee or wait for the next monthly subscription.

EOD trailing max loss limit — 25K $1,000; 50K $2,000; 100K $3,500; 150K $5,000. Locks at starting balance + $100 once the account closes above the initial trail balance (25K $26,100; 50K $52,100; 100K $103,600; 150K $155,100).

Hard daily loss on Evaluation and Sim-Funded — 50K $1,000; 100K $1,500; 150K $2,000. Hitting it fails the Evaluation or permanently terminates the Sim-Funded account.

Fixed DLL — none (25K); $1,200 (50K); $2,100 (100K); $3,000 (150K). Soft breach: trading is locked until the next session. Once the account closes above the initial trail balance the fixed DLL is replaced by the LucidScale DLL — 60% of the highest end-of-day profit, which rises with the account and never falls back.

None on Evaluation — accounts are assessed after the trading day ends. Payout eligibility is separate.

None — there is no evaluation phase

Same EOD trailing max drawdown as Evaluation, locked at Initial Simulated Capital. Hard daily loss continues on Sim-Funded.

EOD trailing — 25K $1,000; 50K $2,000; 100K $3,500; 150K $5,000; locks at starting balance + $100 above the initial trail balance

50% Best Day during Evaluation — not a hard breach; keep trading until Best Day is ≤ 50% of total profit.

No evaluation phase

None — no Consistency Rule on the Sim-Funded Account

20% of total cycle profit on the largest single day, reset after every payout. Drops away at live status.

Allowed, provided the trade is not a Forbidden Trading Practice. News-event concentration that is inconsistent with broader trading can still fail the risk-management standard.

Max 3 concurrent Sim-Funded accounts; up to $450,000 simulated capital. Live Funded is invite-only.

Up to 5 active funded accounts per household or family, combined across all funded account types

Sim-Funded only; scales with EOD profit above Initial Simulated Capital and scales back down if that profit falls. 50K starts at 2 contracts (up to 5): $0–999 → 2; $1,000–1,999 → 3; $2,000+ → 5. 100K starts at 4 (up to 10): $0–999 → 4; $1,000–1,999 → 5; $2,000–2,999 → 8; $3,000+ → 10. 150K starts at 6 (up to 15): $0–999 → 6; $1,000–1,999 → 8; $2,000–2,999 → 10; $3,000–4,499 → 12; $4,500+ → 15. Evaluation uses the full size cap (5 / 10 / 15) with no scaling.

None — full contract size available immediately

Monthly subscription. Reset is a paid restart, not a checkout add-on. Live Funded is invite-only and is not a purchasable product.

Every 5 days

No fixed window — request any day once eligibility is met

5 separate days at or above the daily minimum (50K $200; 100K $300; 150K $500). Withdraw 100% of profit, still subject to the per-size cap. Minimum request $20; at least 50% of the request must be new-cycle profit.

Profit goal 1 (25K $1,500; 50K $3,000; 100K $6,000; 150K $9,000) plus the 20% consistency test; $500 minimum request. The goal resets to $0 after each approved payout and drops to goal 2+ (25K $1,250; 50K $2,500; 100K $3,500; 150K $4,500).

5 qualifying days

None

After FTMO approval in the Client Area; paid in USD. No published processing-time SLA.

No fixed payout window; once approved funds leave the account within minutes and are disbursed within 2 business days via Plaid, WorkMarket by ADP or crypto

Monthly subscription; no activation fee. A Reset Fee is a paid restart of the same size (Growth $109 / $159 / $219; Pro $129 / $189 / $259). No pass-fee refund is documented.

Not allowed. Flat and cancel resting orders before 4:10 p.m. ET or session close, whichever is sooner. The platform auto-liquidates leftovers; relying on that is a Forbidden Trading Practice.

No — the session closes 4:45 PM EST Friday and trading resumes 6:00 PM EST Sunday

Not allowed. A trading day runs 6:00 p.m. ET to 4:10 p.m. ET the next calendar day. No hold past market close.

No — all positions are auto-closed at 4:45 PM EST Monday to Friday. Holding past the cutoff does not fail the account.

Opposite positions are allowed on a single account only. Offsetting across FTMO accounts, other firms, or other people is prohibited.

Prohibited in every form — long and short the same contract in one or separate accounts, between different users, and across firms. Flagged accounts are reset to the prior day's balance; repeat offences breach all accounts involved.

Copying another trader (signals, master accounts, or copiers) is prohibited. Copying across your own accounts is permitted if each account independently complies with every rule.

Permitted — trade copiers are allowed, subject to the HFT and microscalping policies

Automated trading is permitted except high-frequency, latency-arbitrage, or other abusive systems. The trader is responsible for bot errors. Third-party access to the account is prohibited.

Permitted — automated trading systems are allowed; the trader carries responsibility for software errors, and HFT remains prohibited

No trading within 2% of a CME daily price limit; no hold past session close; no exploiting sim/feed errors; no third-party account access. News-event concentration that is inconsistent with broader trading can fail the risk-management standard. Sim-Funded inactivity: warning after 30 days, closed after a further 30. See Forbidden Trading Practices.

Microscalping flagged when more than 50% of profits come from trades held 5 seconds or less; HFT prohibited; hedging prohibited across accounts, users and firms; martingaling discouraged. DCA, genuine scalping, flipping and trade copiers are allowed. 30 calendar days without at least $1 of net profit or loss permanently deletes the account; breached evaluations are deleted after 30 days unless reset.
