The 2-phase challenge

Two evaluation phases, clear objectives, and a funded account on the other side. Grow your account by 10% in Phase 1 and 5% in Phase 2, and you're in. No time limit—your consistency is defined by you.

Rules Summary

1. Profit Target: 10% in Phase 1 and 5% in Phase 2

Grow your simulated account by 10% in Phase 1 and 5% in Phase 2. There is no time limit in either phase. Once you pass, you move to your funded account, where there is no longer a profit target.

2. Max Drawdown: 8% in Phase 1, 10% in Phase 2 and Funded (static)

Unlike the 1-Phase model, here the loss limit floor is static: it is set at the beginning based on your initial balance and does not move, neither up nor down, no matter what happens to your balance.

How it works exactly:

The loss floor is calculated only once, based on your initial balance, and remains fixed throughout the phase.

• In Phase 1, the floor is 8% below your initial balance.

• In Phase 2 and in the funded account, the floor is 10% below your initial balance.

Example: You start Phase 1 with a $25,000 account. Your static floor is set at $23,000 (8% below). Even if your balance rises to $27,000 during the phase, the floor remains at $23,000. If your equity touches that level at any moment, even for an instant, the account is closed.

3. Daily Loss Limit: 4% in Phase 1, 5% in Phase 2 and Funded

Every day you start with a new loss limit margin, calculated on the higher of your current balance and equity. It resets at midnight, platform time. In Phase 1, the daily limit is 4%; in Phase 2 and in the funded account, it is 5%.

4. Minimum Trading Days: 4 days

You must complete at least 4 valid trading days (with at least one trade completed each day) before you can pass the phase or request a payout. In evaluation (Phase 1 and Phase 2), a minimum daily profit of 0.5% realized is also required; in the funded account, it is not required.

5. Risk per trade and automatic account closure (Hard Breach): 1.1%

Your safety margin per trade is 1%: if you keep your risk per trade (or per group of open positions simultaneously) at or below 0.5% of your initial balance, you will never come close to the closure limit.

If, at any moment, your open positions accumulate a floating loss of 1.1% of your initial balance, the account is closed immediately and permanently. There is no prior warning or subsequent recovery. This 1.1% threshold applies equally in both phases of the challenge and in the funded account.

The 0.6 percentage point margin between your recommended risk (0.5%) and the closure threshold (1.1%) exists so that, if you properly set your stop loss at 0.5%, you will never trigger this mechanism due to a minor technical execution delay.

The use of a stop loss is mandatory in all phases, both in evaluation and in the funded account: you must set it within the first minute of each trade. It is not only a standard of consistency, but also an evaluation criterion.

👉 See the Hard breaches: what they are and how to avoid them section for more information.

👉 Also see Consistency standards: how they work and why they exist, which apply during the challenge (in both phases) and in the funded account, and include the mandatory stop loss within the first minute.

6. Profit Share: 80%, scalable to 100%

Your base profit share is 80%. With available add-ons, you can scale it up to 100%. Your first payout is available 14 calendar days after your first trade in the funded account. After that, you can withdraw every 14 calendar days.

7. Prohibited Strategies

Certain strategies are prohibited without exception across all models. See the Prohibited strategies section for the complete and updated list.
