What you are actually buying.
A funded prop trading account is not a bank account with money in it. It is a simulated account priced off live market data, governed by a rulebook, with a contractual promise attached: hit the target without breaching the floors and the firm pays you real money for the simulated profit you produced.
That distinction matters because it explains every rule you will ever read. The firm is not protecting deposited capital — it is protecting its payout liability. Drawdown floors, profit targets and payout schedules all exist to make that liability predictable.
The four routes to a funded account here.
- 1-Step — one evaluation phase, one profit target, then funded.
- 2-Step — a lower target split across two phases, cheaper per unit of account size.
- Instant Funded — no evaluation at all. $10k for $339, $25k for $999, $50k for $1,999, $100k for $2,999.
- Pay After Passing (PAPP) — start from $5, pay the $150 activation fee only after you pass. 3% daily and 8% maximum drawdown.
The rules that decide whether you keep it.
Both drawdown limits are measured on equity, not balance, so an open position counts against you in real time. There is no consistency rule on standard programs — a single day can be your whole month. There is no time limit, so an evaluation does not expire. News trading and Expert Advisors are allowed on every program.
The full rulebook, including breach definitions and payout eligibility, lives on /rules. The drawdown simulator on /tools lets you stress-test a position size against the floor before you send the order.
How the money actually reaches you.
Payout requests are batched and settled every Monday in USDT on the TRC-20 network. Each transfer is written to the public ledger with its TXID, so the payment is verifiable on-chain by anyone. £36,857 has been paid to traders since December 2024 across 286 accounts and 374 evaluations.
Pre-2026 payouts were made by bank transfer and are included in that total; every payout from 2026 onward is on-chain.
