Our drawdowns are calculated as a static value off the beginning capital deposited into your trading accounts and evaluations.

Currently we run a 1 phase and 2 phase evaluation program and as such there are no ongoing fees.

We are partnered with Eightcap as our broker to offer industry leading spreads and commissions for traders. To understand their account offering that we use see here: https://www.eightcap.com/en/trading/trading-conditions/spreads/

Once you become a live funded trader, you must trade with us for at least 30 days for your first payout, and after that we can payout bi-weekly.

No, the evaluation does not have a time frame

There are no profit targets required to be reached on the live funded account. However, the account must end in a positive balance at the end of the 30 day trading period to make a withdrawal.

Yes, you are allowed to use EA’s and indicators, including tools for managing risk and automated trading systems. However, certain strategies are strictly prohibited in the funded stage:

-Martingale

-One-sided betting

Third party EA must be verified prior to using it on your live account.

The purpose of the evaluation is for us to make sure that you are a consistent trader without any capital risk. As our evaluation is set up to test your trading without risking capital, you cannot withdraw profits on this phase.

To request a withdrawal, please go to your dashboard and select the Withdrawal/ Profit Share option to request a withdrawal.

Once you send your request, our payments team will verify if you meet the eligible criteria to make a withdrawal, if so they will process the payout either via Cryptocurrency or Bank Transfer.

Please notice that once you create a Funded account, you will be required to sign the Independent Contractor Agreement and fill out the Payment Method form, where you will provide your preferred payment method to process your future requests.

We aim to process payouts as quickly as possible. Our average withdrawal processing time is within 1-4 business days.
