Evaluation Rules
The Instant Funding program has no evaluation stage; it is covered exclusively under Funded Account Rules. The rules in this section apply to the 1-Step Express and the 2-Step Classic only.
Profit Target
Rules differ across account lines, as shown in the table below.
| Program | Profit Target |
|---|---|
| 1-Step Express | 10% of starting balance (single phase) |
| 2-Step Classic | 7% of starting balance per step (both Step 1 and Step 2) |
Profit targets are expressed as percentages. For example, on a $100,000 1-Step Express account the target is $10,000; on a $100,000 2-Step Classic account the target is $7,000 per step.
Drawdown Rules (Evaluation)
Rules differ across account lines, as shown in the tables below.
Trailing Drawdown Values
| Program | Maximum Loss Limit | Type | Trails From |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-Step Express | 6% of starting balance | Relative trailing | Account balance (high-water mark) |
| 2-Step Classic | 8% of starting balance | Static | Initial starting balance (fixed, never moves) |
For the 1-Step Express, the 6% trailing drawdown is measured against the account balance high-water mark. For example, on a $100,000 account the initial drawdown level sits at $94,000 and trails upward as the balance grows.
For the 2-Step Classic, the 8% static drawdown is fixed at account creation and never moves. On a $100,000 account the maximum loss level is permanently set at $92,000, regardless of any profits made.
Daily Loss Limit
Both the 1-Step Express and the 2-Step Classic carry a 4% daily loss limit. This is a separate rule from the maximum loss limit and applies independently during both evaluation phases.
The daily loss limit is calculated from the closed balance of the prior trading day, resetting at 23:59 server time every day. For example, if your closed balance at the reset was $105,000, you must not lose more than $4,200 on the following trading day.
Drawdown Calculation Method
The 1-Step Express uses EOD trailing: the maximum loss level trails from the account balance high-water mark and updates based on the closed balance. Intraday equity highs do not move the high-water mark upward during the session; the update occurs based on the balance.
The 2-Step Classic uses static: the maximum loss level is fixed at account creation based on the initial starting balance and never moves, regardless of profits or gains.
The daily loss limit on both programs is EOD trailing: it resets each day from the prior day’s closed balance at 23:59 server time.
Drawdown Lock
1-Step Express: The trailing drawdown stops trailing once the maximum loss level reaches the initial starting balance. From that point it locks permanently at the starting balance and never trails further. For example, once the high-water mark on a $100,000 account has grown enough that 6% below it equals $100,000, the drawdown level locks at $100,000.
2-Step Classic: No drawdown lock applies; the drawdown level is static from the start and never moves in any direction.
Consistency Rule (Evaluation)
1-Step Express: No consistency rule applies during the evaluation stage. There are no soft rules on this challenge. The only rules are the hard rules (daily loss limit and maximum loss limit).
2-Step Classic: A 35% consistency rule applies across both Step 1 and Step 2. No single trading day’s net profit (from closed positions only) can represent more than 35% of the total net profit achieved in that step. For example, on a $100,000 account where the 7% target is $7,000, your single best day cannot exceed $2,450. If you hit the profit target but your best day exceeds the 35% threshold, you must continue trading until the consistency requirement is met; the account remains open.
Minimum Trading Days
Neither the 1-Step Express nor the 2-Step Classic requires a minimum number of trading days. You can pass the evaluation as quickly as your strategy allows, subject to hitting the profit target and remaining within drawdown limits.
Time Limit
No time limit applies to either evaluation program. Both the 1-Step Express and the 2-Step Classic have unlimited time to complete the evaluation. The only account-activity restriction is the 30-day inactivity rule, which is covered under Additional Rules.
Position Size & Lot Size Limits
FT+ does not publish specific maximum lot size limits per account size for any program. Position sizing is effectively governed by the leverage available per instrument group.
1-Step Express and Instant Funding leverage:
| Instrument Group | Maximum Leverage |
|---|---|
| Forex and commodities (metals) | 1:30 |
| Gold & Silver | 1:20 |
| Indices | 1:20 |
| Energy (Oils) | 1:5 |
| Cryptocurrency | 1:2 |
2-Step Classic leverage:
| Instrument Group | Maximum Leverage |
|---|---|
| Forex | 1:50 |
| Commodities (metals) | 1:30 |
| Gold & Silver | 1:20 |
| Indices | 1:20 |
| Energy (Oils) | 1:5 |
| Cryptocurrency | 1:2 |
Activation Fee
No activation fee exists for either the 1-Step Express or the 2-Step Classic. The one-time fee paid at purchase covers both the evaluation and the upgrade to the funded stage. There is no separate fee triggered at the evaluation-to-funded transition.
Funded Account Rules
This section covers the FT+ Trader Simulated Live Account, the funded stage across all three programs. For Instant Funding, this stage begins immediately from purchase. For the 1-Step Express and 2-Step Classic, this stage begins after passing the evaluation.
Drawdown Rules (Funded)
Rules differ across programs. The 1-Step Express and Instant Funding share the same drawdown structure at the funded stage; the 2-Step Classic differs.
Trailing Drawdown Values
| Program | Maximum Loss Limit | Type | Trails From |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1-Step Express | 6% of starting balance (relative) | EOD trailing | Account balance (high-water mark) |
| Instant Funding | 6% of starting balance (relative) | EOD trailing | Account balance (high-water mark) |
| 2-Step Classic | 8% of starting balance (static) | Static | Initial starting balance (fixed) |
For the 1-Step Express and Instant Funding, the drawdown method and values carry across from the evaluation stage to the funded stage unchanged. The trailing drawdown continues to trail the balance high-water mark until it locks at the initial starting balance.
The help center confirms the behavior after a payout on the 1-Step Express and Instant Funding with this example: if you have a $100,000 account, hit $110,000, and withdraw $4,000, your balance becomes $106,000. Your maximum loss allowance then becomes $6,000 ($106,000 minus $100,000), because the drawdown level remains locked at the initial starting balance of $100,000. Withdrawals do not lower the high-water mark.
For the 2-Step Classic, the 8% static drawdown remains fixed at the initial starting balance throughout the funded stage as well. However, when scaling occurs, the drawdown resets to a new static level based on the new account starting balance.
Daily Loss Limit
The daily loss limit at the funded stage is the same as the evaluation stage for all three programs.
| Program | Daily Loss Limit |
|---|---|
| 1-Step Express | 4% of prior day’s closed balance |
| Instant Funding | 6% of prior day’s closed balance |
| 2-Step Classic | 4% of prior day’s closed balance |
Note that Instant Funding has a 6% daily loss limit, matching its 6% maximum loss limit. The 1-Step Express and 2-Step Classic both carry a 4% daily limit.
Drawdown Calculation Method
1-Step Express and Instant Funding: Both use EOD trailing at the funded stage. The maximum loss level trails the account balance high-water mark and locks permanently once it reaches the initial starting balance.
2-Step Classic: Uses static at the funded stage. The drawdown level is fixed based on the starting balance and never changes except upon scaling.
The daily loss limit on all three programs is EOD trailing: resetting each day from the prior day’s closed balance at 23:59 server time.
Drawdown Lock
1-Step Express and Instant Funding: The trailing drawdown locks permanently once it reaches the initial starting balance. If the balance then drops to the locked drawdown level, the account is hard-breached and terminated.
2-Step Classic: The static drawdown is effectively locked from the start. If the account balance drops to the drawdown breach level (starting balance minus 8%), the account is terminated. Upon scaling to a new level, a new static drawdown is set based on the new starting balance for that level.
Consistency Rule (Funded)
1-Step Express: No consistency rule applies to payout eligibility on the funded stage. Payouts can be requested as soon as the account is in profit above the minimum withdrawal amount.
Instant Funding: No consistency rule applies to payout eligibility. No consistency score is tracked for this program at the funded stage.
2-Step Classic: A 50% consistency rule applies to payout eligibility. No single trading day’s net profit (from closed positions only) can represent more than 50% of the total net profit generated since the account was funded or since the last payout. You must meet this threshold before a withdrawal request will be accepted. After a successful withdrawal, the consistency score resets and is recalculated solely based on trading activity after that withdrawal.
Position Size & Lot Size Limits (Funded)
The same leverage tiers stated in the Evaluation Rules section apply at the funded stage. FT+ does not publish specific maximum lot size limits per account size. Position sizing is governed by available margin and the leverage tiers per instrument group shown in the Evaluation Rules section.
Profit Split
All three programs start at an 80% profit split; you receive 80% of any withdrawal request amount in real-world USD. The remaining 20% is retained by FT+.
The split can increase through performance milestones on the funded stage:
- Achieve 20% profit on the FT+ Trader simulated live account → split upgrades to 90%
- Achieve 30% profit on the FT+ Trader simulated live account → split is eligible to upgrade to 100% upon request
Once upgraded, the split remains at that level as a lifetime split on that account.
At checkout, add-ons are available for the 1-Step Express and Instant Funding to start the funded account at 90% instead of 80% (add-on adds 15% to purchase price). The 2-Step Classic add-on raises the starting split to 85% (adds 15% to purchase price).
Payout Rules
Rules differ across programs; see the sections below.
First Payout Requirements
1-Step Express: You can request your first payout from day 1 of your simulated funded account. The only requirements are that the account is in profit and the withdrawal amount meets the minimum of $50. No minimum trading days, no consistency requirement, no waiting period.
Instant Funding: You can request your first payout from your first active trading day, as soon as the account reaches a positive simulated balance. The minimum is $50. No minimum trading days, no consistency requirement, no waiting period.
2-Step Classic: Your first payout is eligible 10 calendar days after account creation, provided the 50% consistency rule has been met, the account has not been hard-breached, and the withdrawal meets the minimum threshold. The minimum withdrawal is 1% of the account’s initial starting balance (e.g., $1,000 on a $100,000 account).
Subsequent Payout Requirements
1-Step Express and Instant Funding: All subsequent payouts follow the same conditions as the first; account must be in profit, minimum $50, and the account must be flat (no open positions) at the time of the request. No additional requirements are introduced for subsequent payouts.
2-Step Classic: Subsequent payouts are available every 10 calendar days after the previous request. The 50% consistency rule must be met at the time of each request. After each withdrawal, the consistency score resets and is recalculated from trading activity after that payout.
Payout Frequency
| Program | First Payout | Subsequent Payouts |
|---|---|---|
| 1-Step Express | Day 1 | Every 7 days |
| Instant Funding | Day 1 (first active trading day) | Every 7 days |
| 2-Step Classic | Day 10 after account creation | Every 10 days |
Note: the standard 7-day cycle for 1-Step Express and Instant Funding can be reduced to every 3 days via an add-on purchased at checkout (+15% to base price).
Payout Buffer
No payout buffer applies to the 1-Step Express or the Instant Funding program. You can request any amount above the $50 minimum as soon as the account is in profit.
For the 2-Step Classic, a 1% minimum withdrawal threshold applies; you must withdraw at least 1% of the initial account size per request. This functions as a minimum floor rather than a buffer in the traditional sense. There is no requirement that a minimum amount remain in the account after a withdrawal.
Daily Progression Rule
No daily progression rule applies to any of the three programs. There is no requirement that a minimum percentage of each payout comes from profits generated after the previous payout.
Payout Caps & Limits
FT+ does not publish a maximum payout cap per request for any program. FT+ states “no withdrawal ceilings” for the Instant Funding program specifically, and no cap is stated for the other programs either.
Minimum payout amounts per program:
| Program | Minimum Payout |
|---|---|
| 1-Step Express | $50 |
| Instant Funding | $50 |
| 2-Step Classic | 1% of initial account size |
Scaling Plan
All three programs include a scaling plan that increases the simulated account balance upon hitting specific profit milestones. Once scaled, the drawdown transitions to a static model based on the new account size.
1-Step Express scaling:
The scaling target is 10% simulated profit on the funded (FT+ Trader) account. You cannot make a scaling request on a challenge account; scaling requests are only available at the funded stage. The profit required must be in the closed balance at the time of the request, the account must be flat (no open trades), and the request is subject to risk review.
Each scale moves the account to a new starting balance and sets a new static drawdown at that level:
| FT+ Account Starting Balance | Profit Required to Scale | Min Balance for Next Level | New Starting Balance After Scale | New Static Drawdown |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $10,000 | $1,000 | $11,000 | $26,000 | $25,000 |
| $25,000 | $2,500 | $27,500 | $52,500 | $50,000 |
| $50,000 | $5,000 | $55,000 | $105,000 | $100,000 |
| $100,000 | $10,000 | $110,000 | $210,000 | $200,000 |
| $200,000 | $20,000 | $220,000 | $420,000 | $400,000 |
| $400,000 | $40,000 | $440,000 | $840,000 | $800,000 |
| $800,000 | $80,000 | $880,000 | $1,680,000 | $1,600,000 |
| $1,600,000 | $160,000 | $1,760,000 | $2,660,000 | $2,500,000 |
| $2,500,000 | N/A | N/A | $5,250,000 | $5,000,000 |
The standard maximum simulated capacity is $2,500,000. With the enhanced scaling add-on purchased at checkout, capacity extends to $5,000,000. Scaling can be requested once per day. The request takes up to 2 business days to process.
Instant Funding scaling:
The scaling target is also 10% on the closed balance. The conditions are the same: flat account, closed balance hitting the target, subject to risk review. Upon scaling, the drawdown shifts to a static model based on the new account size.
| FT+ Account Starting Balance | Profit Required to Scale | Min Balance for Next Level | New Starting Balance After Scale | New Static Drawdown |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $5,000 | $500 | $5,500 | $10,500 | $10,000 |
| $10,000 | $1,000 | $11,000 | $26,000 | $25,000 |
| $25,000 | $2,500 | $27,500 | $52,500 | $50,000 |
| $50,000 | $5,000 | $55,000 | $105,000 | $100,000 |
| $100,000 | $10,000 | $110,000 | $210,000 | $200,000 |
| $200,000 | $20,000 | $220,000 | $420,000 | $400,000 |
| $400,000 | $40,000 | $440,000 | $840,000 | $800,000 |
| $800,000 | $80,000 | $880,000 | $1,680,000 | $1,600,000 |
| $1,600,000 | $160,000 | $1,760,000 | $2,660,000 | $2,500,000 |
| $2,500,000 | N/A | N/A | $5,250,000 | $5,000,000 |
The standard maximum simulated capacity is $2,500,000. With the enhanced scaling add-on, capacity extends to $5,000,000.
2-Step Classic scaling:
The scaling target is 20% simulated profit. Before a scale request can be submitted, all of the following conditions must be met: at least one successful withdrawal on the funded account, the 50% consistency score must be met, the symbol loss rule must not have been broken, the account must have been active for at least 2 months before the first request, each subsequent request also requires a minimum of 2 months of trading activity, and 20% profit must be in the closed balance at the time of the request. The account must be flat and the request is subject to risk review.
Profits from previous levels do not carry forward; you must earn 20% new profit at each level.
| FT+ Account Starting Balance | Profit Required to Scale | Balance for Next Level | 10% Static Drawdown Amount | Static Drawdown Breach Balance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $10,000 | $2,000 | $12,000 | $1,000 | $9,000 |
| $15,000 | $3,000 | $18,000 | $1,500 | $13,500 |
| $25,000 | $5,000 | $30,000 | $2,500 | $22,500 |
| $37,500 | $7,500 | $45,000 | $3,750 | $33,750 |
| $50,000 | $10,000 | $60,000 | $5,000 | $45,000 |
| $75,000 | $15,000 | $90,000 | $7,500 | $67,500 |
| $100,000 | $20,000 | $120,000 | $10,000 | $90,000 |
| $150,000 | $30,000 | $180,000 | $15,000 | $135,000 |
| $225,000 | $45,000 | $270,000 | $22,500 | $202,500 |
| $337,500 | $67,500 | $405,000 | $33,750 | $303,750 |
| $500,000 | $100,000 | $600,000 | $50,000 | $450,000 |
| $750,000 | $150,000 | $900,000 | $75,000 | $675,000 |
| $1,150,000 | $230,000 | $1,380,000 | $115,000 | $1,035,000 |
| $1,750,000 | $350,000 | $2,100,000 | $175,000 | $1,575,000 |
| $2,500,000 | N/A | N/A | $250,000 | $2,250,000 |
The maximum simulated capacity on the 2-Step Classic is $2,500,000. No enhanced scaling add-on is available for this program.
Live Account Pathway
FT+ does not offer a live funded stage beyond the simulated funded account. All accounts at every stage (evaluation and funded) operate in a simulated environment using virtual funds. There is no pathway to real capital. Payouts are performance-based rewards paid from FT+’s own funds, not profits from live market trading.
Trading Rules & Restrictions
Permitted Instruments
FT+ offers a comprehensive range of instruments across Forex pairs, index markets, commodities, and cryptocurrencies. A complete instrument list is available on the FT+ website’s available markets page.
MT5 is not available to traders in the United States.
Trading Hours & Overnight Policy
Rules differ across programs.
1-Step Express: Overnight and weekend holding are permitted. There is no auto-liquidation on Fridays and no requirement to close positions before the weekend.
2-Step Classic: Overnight and weekend holding are permitted. There is no stop-loss requirement.
Instant Funding: No weekend holding is permitted. All positions must be closed by 4:30 PM EST on Fridays. If positions remain open at that time, the system will automatically close them at prevailing market rates, which may result in slippage. Trading can resume when markets reopen.
There is no stop-loss requirement on any of the three programs.
News Trading Policy
News trading is permitted on all three programs. However, it is subject to FT+’s Risk Review Policy, which is applied holistically at the point of payout or account upgrade requests.
FT+ does not prohibit news trading outright. A single trade during a high-impact news event at modest margin utilisation is described in the risk policy as likely acceptable. A trade at 90% of available margin held for only seconds during a high-impact event (a “coin-flip” trade) is described as likely unacceptable and constitutes an abuse of simulated trading conditions. The risk review is a holistic assessment considering margin utilisation, trade duration, instrument volatility, and other factors in combination.
The policy is consistent across both the evaluation and funded stages.
Expert Advisors & Copy Trading
Expert Advisors and automated strategies: EAs, algos, and bots are permitted. You can use any trading strategy or style. FT+ does not provide technical support for third-party EAs. Prohibited forms of automation include arbitrage, grid trading, and tick scalping. Traders may be required to submit their EA for approval before receiving a simulated live account.
Copy trading: Copy trading of any kind is strictly prohibited across accounts. This includes having the same position open on the same market in the same direction at the same time across more than one FT+ account. An EA that copy trades or hedges across accounts is also prohibited. If accounts are flagged for copy trading, profits may be nullified.
Hedging is permitted within a single account (e.g., opening a buy and a sell on gold simultaneously on the same account). Hedging across two or more accounts is prohibited.
Prohibited Practices
The following practices result in account termination (hard breach) or payout denial:
- Exceeding the daily loss limit
- Exceeding the maximum loss limit (trailing or static, depending on program)
- Exceeding the 3% Symbol Loss Limit (2-Step Classic only; this rule does not apply to the 1-Step Express or Instant Funding)
- Latency arbitrage or any form of arbitrage
- Abuse of simulated trading conditions (e.g., tick scalping, grid trading, exploiting demo-specific pricing)
- Copy trading or hedging across accounts
- Account management or use of evaluation passing services
- Using another person’s payment method or purchasing under a different name
- Sharing account credentials
Additional Rules
Inactivity Rule
All accounts across both evaluation and funded stages across all three programs require at least one fully completed trade (both open and close) within every 30-day calendar period. If no trade is placed and closed within 30 days, the account is hard-breached and terminated due to inactivity. FT+ sends an email reminder 7 days before the 30-day period expires.
Accounts Under Management (AUM)
Maximum simultaneous simulated live account allocations per program:
| Program | Max Simulated Live Accounts | Max Combined Value |
|---|---|---|
| 1-Step Express | 2 | $200,000 |
| 2-Step Classic | 1 | N/A |
| Instant Funding | No hard limit | N/A |
A trader holding an active 1-Step Express simulated live account cannot simultaneously hold a 2-Step Classic simulated live account. You can hold any number of evaluation accounts.
FT+ allows merging of some simulated live accounts. Merging is only permitted if both accounts are untraded. The maximum merged account size is $200,000 for programs that offer that size; this does not apply to the 2-Step Classic. Account merges are subject to current program line-ups.
Account Management & Passing Services
Account management and evaluation passing services are not permitted. The person purchasing the account must be the person trading it. Sharing credentials is prohibited.
Hedging
On-account hedging (opposing positions on the same instrument within a single account) is permitted. Cross-account hedging (opposing positions on the same instrument across two or more accounts) is strictly prohibited.
Trading Platforms
Available Platforms
FT+ offers four trading platforms: MT5, DXtrade, Match Trader, and cTrader.

FT+’s trading infrastructure is provided by GooeyTrade, a technology provider that manages and administers the platforms, spreads, commissions, and pricing feeds through a variety of liquidity and pricing providers. FT+ states it does not mark up spreads, swaps, or commissions on top of default broker fees.
All three current programs (1-Step Express, 2-Step Classic, and Instant Funding) are swap-free from account creation as of February 2026. No overnight swap or rollover fees are charged on any new account. This is applied automatically; no request is required.
Billing & Account Management
Subscription Model
FT+ does not use a subscription model. Every program (Instant Funding, 1-Step Express, and 2-Step Classic) is purchased as a one-time fee. There are no monthly charges. Once you’ve purchased your program, you will not be billed again for that account. If you breach an evaluation or a funded account, you would need to make a new one-time purchase to obtain a replacement account.
As of 7 February 2026, FT+ no longer offers a challenge fee refund for the 1-Step Express or 2-Step Classic programs. On legacy programs only, a fee refund was historically available upon reaching 10% simulated profit on the funded stage, but this does not apply to the current program lineup.
Resets
A reset lets you purchase a new evaluation account at a discounted rate when you’re done with your current one. The 1-Step Express and both steps of the 2-Step Classic offer resets at a 20% discount off the standard fee. Clicking the reset button in the FT+ Dashboard initiates a new purchase at the discounted price; the old account is closed.
Resets are only available for evaluation accounts. You cannot reset a simulated live (funded) account. If a funded account is breached, you would need to purchase a new evaluation (or Instant Funding program) outright.
The reset discount matches the 20% mentioned on the product pages for both the 1-Step Express and 2-Step Classic. The reset fee is lower than the standard subscription price by that 20% margin.
Payouts & Withdrawals
Payment Methods
FT+ offers two payout methods: cryptocurrency and bank transfer. For cryptocurrency, accepted currencies are Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Tether (USDT) on ERC20 and TRC20 networks, USD Coin (USDC), and Binance Pay. FT+ also reserves the right to make payments via refund to the original card or purchase method at its sole discretion.
Processing Times
Standard review and processing time for withdrawal requests is up to 2 business days (Monday–Friday), though FT+ states most are processed and paid the same day. If a request is flagged for a risk review, the extended processing window is 5–7 business days, though this is typically completed sooner. FT+ operates Monday to Friday.
No separate processing timelines are published for crypto vs. bank transfer; the 2 business day standard applies to all methods.
Tax & Eligibility Requirements
Before any withdrawal can be processed, FT+ requires: a signed researcher contract (sent via DocuSign after evaluation pass) and a verified KYC (Know Your Customer) profile. KYC is completed through Sumsub and requires email verification, a live selfie, and a government-issued photo ID. Documents from over 200 countries are recognised. KYC must be completed within 3 days of account creation to avoid delays.
FT+ does not report trader earnings to any tax authority. Traders are classified as independent contractors and are solely responsible for reporting their earnings to the relevant tax authority in their jurisdiction.
Restricted Countries
The following countries are prohibited from using FT+’s services due to international sanctions: Cuba, North Korea (Democratic People’s Republic of Korea), Syria, Islamic Republic of Iran, Myanmar, Pakistan, Vietnam, and the regions of Crimea, Donetsk, Luhansk, Kherson, and Zaporizhzhia in Ukraine. MT5 is additionally unavailable in the United States.
