Evaluation phases
This is an instant-funding account. You trade firm capital from day one with no profit target. Complete the minimum qualifying trading days before your first payout.
| Phase | Profit target | Min. trading days |
|---|---|---|
| No evaluation | Funded immediately | - |
5 trading days, each ≥ 1% profit, before your first payout.
| Account term | Detail |
|---|---|
| First reward / payout cycle | 28 days, then every 14 days |
| Fee refund | With your 3rd consecutive reward |
What counts as a trading day
A trading day is counted once you open and close at least one position. Days with no completed trade, including weekends, do not count toward your minimum.
On passing
You are funded from day one. Complete the minimum trading days, then request your first payout.
If you breach
A breach ends the account. Instead of a whole new challenge, you can buy an Account Reset: a brand-new account that resumes at the phase you were on, so you keep the phases you already passed. Available any time and for up to 14 days after a breach, once per phase.
Account violations
Max. drawdown varies by challenge type.
5 trading days, each ≥ 1% profit, before your first payout.
How each rule works
Daily loss limit: 3% (trailing)
The daily loss limit resets at 00:00 UTC and is measured on the higher of your balance or equity at the reset, including open floating losses.
Worked example: a 3% (trailing) limit gives about $3,000 of room on a $100,000 account ($1,500 on $50,000).
Maximum drawdown: 5% (trailing)
The overall floor is 5% (trailing), which trails up with your balance and locks at your starting balance once you reach 5% profit.
Worked example: on a $100,000 account the breach point starts near $95,000.
Atlas Protector (soft breach, funded)
If your open floating loss reaches 2% of the initial balance, all positions auto-close so you keep trading rather than breaching. The first trigger drops your split to 50%; the second breaches the account. It does not apply during the evaluation.
Single-asset & floating-loss limits
Instant Funded caps risk at 1.5% of the account on one asset per day (about $1,500 on a $100,000 account) and a 1.5% floating-loss ceiling. Breaching either ends the account.
Minimum hold time
Trades should be held at least 2 minutes. Trades closed faster are treated as short trades and their profit may be deducted.
Consistency rule
20%: no single day above 20% of total profit per payout cycle. Breaking it does not fail the account. It delays payout until profit is better distributed.
Extra breach triggers
Risking more than 1.5% on a single asset in a day, or a 1.5% floating loss, also breaches the account.
Additional guidelines
- Overnight & weekend holding is allowed (swap fees apply, typically tripled over the weekend).
- Minimum hold time is 2 minutes.
- EAs are allowed in evaluation and funded.
- Hedging within one account is fine; hedging across accounts, brokers or firms is prohibited.
How the news rule works
High-impact releases are the ones flagged red on calendars such as Forex Factory: NFP, CPI, FOMC and central-bank rate decisions. During the evaluation there is no news restriction. On funded accounts, profit from any trade opened or closed within 5 minutes before or after a high-impact release may be removed. The full profit of the affected trade is excluded, not just the in-window portion. Trades held through the news are unaffected.
Rewards
The default split is 90%, upgradable to 100% with the profit-split add-on. Add-ons can shorten your reward cycle.
| Reward cycle | Timing |
|---|---|
| Standard | First at 28 days, then every 14 |
| Weekly (add-on) | First at 21 days, then every 7 |
| On-Demand (add-on) | Request any time after the first cycle |
Withdrawal methods
| Method | Limit | Fee | Speed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Crypto | Up to $1,000 | No fee | Within 4 hours |
| Rise | Over $1,000 | $50 | Within 4 hours |
How a payout works
- Meet the minimum trading days and hold profit above your split.
- Close all open positions and ensure no breach is under review.
- Request from your dashboard; the account reopens once the payout is sent.

Instant Zero vs Instant Funded
Both accounts skip the evaluation: you trade firm capital from day one. The difference is what you trade off. Instant Zero drops the consistency rule entirely, so one strong day can carry a whole payout cycle. In return it runs tighter risk limits. Instant Funded gives you more drawdown room, but your profit has to be spread across the cycle before you can withdraw.
| Feature | Instant Zero | Instant Funded |
|---|---|---|
| Evaluation | None. Funded from day one | None. Funded from day one |
| Consistency rule | None. Your best day counts in full | 20%: no single day above 20% of cycle profit |
| Daily loss limit | 2% | 3% (trailing) |
| Max drawdown | 4%, end-of-day trailing | 5% trailing, locks at breakeven after 5% profit |
| Floating-loss protection | Atlas Protector: at 1% floating loss, half your positions close. Second trigger same day is a breach | Hard breach at 1.5% floating loss |
| Single-asset risk | Standard CFD rules | Max 1.5% of the account on one asset per day |
| Minimum trading days | 5, each with 1%+ profit | 5, each with 1%+ profit |
| First payout | 28 days, then every 14 | 28 days, then every 14 |
| Payout buffer | 3% above starting balance | None |
| Payout caps | 5% per cycle on payouts 1 to 3, then uncapped | None |
| Profit split | 90%, up to 100% with add-on | 90%, up to 100% with add-on |
| Fee refund | With your 3rd consecutive reward | With your 3rd consecutive reward |
Which one fits you? Pick Instant Zero if your edge shows up in bursts and you want every winning day to count toward the payout. Pick Instant Funded if you want more room on drawdown and do not mind spreading profit across the cycle.
