OneFunded Review

OneFunded launched in 2024 as an evaluation-based forex prop firm focused on CFD trading. All trading on the platform is entirely simulated; there’s no live trading, and all profits and losses are virtual.

The platform is operated by two entities. Brynex Tech Limited is a UK-registered company (no. 15918986), with a registered office at 71–75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London, WC2H 9JQ. OneFunded Capital Ltd., registered in Saint Lucia (Ground Floor, The Sotheby Building, Rodney Bay, Gros-Islet), is responsible for providing certain services to clients who trade via the MT5 platform. The firm offers four challenge programs (Flash, Core, Value, and Flex) across account sizes from $2,000 up to $200,000.

Challenge Structure

Phase Overview

Flash is a 1-step challenge: you complete a single evaluation phase and, on passing, move directly to a funded account. Core, Value, and Flex are all 2-step challenges: you must pass Phase 1 and then Phase 2 before receiving a funded account. The funded account in all cases is a simulated demo account; no real capital is involved at any stage.

Profit Target

The profit target varies by challenge type. The rules are uniform across all account sizes within each program.

Flash (1-step)

The profit target is 10% for the single evaluation phase, uniform across all account sizes.

Core (2-step)

PhaseProfit Target
Phase 18%
Phase 25%

Drawdown Rules (Challenge)

Drawdown Values

The maximum overall loss limits during the challenge, uniform across all account sizes within each program:

Daily Loss Limit

The maximum daily loss limits during the challenge, uniform across all account sizes:

ChallengeMaximum Daily Loss

Core5%
Value4%

Drawdown Calculation Method

OneFunded uses equity-based drawdown across all challenges. Drawdown is calculated based on your equity at any point, including both realized profits/losses and floating (unrealized) PnL. This means a drop from an open profit back toward your starting balance counts as a drawdown event, even if no position has been closed. Unrealized losses on open trades can trigger a breach without a trade being closed.

This is distinct from balance-based drawdown, where the daily limit is fixed to the starting balance and only closed P&L counts.

Drawdown Lock

No drawdown lock mechanism is documented for the challenge stage.


Funded Account Rules

Drawdown Rules (Funded)

Drawdown Values

The same overall loss percentages apply during the funded stage as during the challenge; breaching daily drawdown or maximum overall loss on a funded account results in account termination with no eligibility for payouts. The specific dollar-denominated drawdown levels trail from the same starting balance basis as the challenge phase. OneFunded does not separately document funded-stage drawdown values as distinct from the challenge values.

Daily Loss Limit

The same daily loss limits that apply during the challenge apply during the funded stage. A breach via daily drawdown or maximum overall loss terminates the funded account, and any simulated profits are forfeited.

Drawdown Calculation Method

Equity-based drawdown (intraday) applies at the funded stage, as confirmed across the full platform. The method is identical to the challenge stage.

Consistency Rule (Funded)

A consistency rule applies to payout eligibility at the funded stage. Your Best Day Profit Ratio (the percentage of your total profit that came from your single highest-profit day in the current payout cycle) must be at or below 30% before a payout can be requested. This is a lower cap than the evaluation-stage limits (which range from 40% to 50% depending on challenge type).

The rule doesn’t breach your account. If your ratio exceeds 30%, you continue trading until subsequent profitable days dilute the best-day share back to 30% or below. The ratio resets after each payout is processed, starting a new cycle.

Lot Size Limits (Funded)

OneFunded doesn’t impose strict lot size limits. You can choose lot sizes that suit your strategy. However, a Position Sizing Consistency Rule applies throughout both the challenge and funded stages: the maximum risk per trade idea (including any floating losses, and aggregated across correlated instruments and multiple accounts under the same user) is limited to 3% of the initial account balance.

A trade idea covers all positions on the same instrument in the same direction opened within a 2-hour window of the previous trade closing. Correlated instruments (for example, AUDUSD, USDCHF, and AUDCHF expressing the same underlying market view) may be treated as a single trade idea. Splitting a strategy across multiple accounts to bypass this limit is explicitly prohibited.

Abrupt, significant increases in position size, especially during high-volatility news events, can trigger a compliance review and may result in account termination.

Leverage

Leverage applies uniformly across challenge and funded stages, as these are simulation accounts throughout:

Asset ClassLeverage
FX instruments1:100
Commodities & indices1:30
Crypto1:2

Profit Split

The standard profit split is 80% to the trader. A 90/10 Profit Split Add-on is available for purchase, which increases your share to 90%.

Payout Rules

First Payout Requirements

Your first payout becomes available once all three conditions are met: at least 14 days have passed since you opened the first position on your funded account; you have at least $100 in profit; and your Best Day Profit Ratio is at or below 30%.

If you purchase the Weekly Payout Add-on, the 14-day waiting period is reduced to 7 days.

Before submitting a payout request, all open trades must be closed and all pending/limit orders canceled. Once you submit the request, your account is set to view-only mode until the payout is completed.

Subsequent Payout Requirements

After your first payout, you can request further payouts every 14 days (or every 7 days with the Weekly Payout Add-on). The consistency requirement of ≤30% applies to every payout request. The payout cycle resets after each processed payout.

Payout Frequency

Every 14 days by default. Every 7 days with the Weekly Payout Add-on.

Payout Caps & Limits

The minimum payout amount is $100 for all payment methods. The maximum payout per request is $10,000 for all payment methods. OneFunded’s share percentage is deducted from your account balance at the time of payout.

Scaling Plan

OneFunded mentions unlocking “even larger allocations” with consistency over time. The maximum total funded balance across all accounts is $200,000 (for example, two $100,000 accounts). Specific scaling tiers or thresholds are not published beyond this cap.

Live Account Pathway

OneFunded does not offer live trading. All accounts throughout the challenge and funded stages are simulated demo accounts. The platform exists solely as a simulated trading environment for educational purposes; no live trading takes place. There is no live account pathway.


Trading Rules & Restrictions

Permitted Instruments

OneFunded offers over 250 instruments across multiple asset classes: 55+ forex pairs, 15+ cryptocurrencies, 150+ American and European stock CFDs, and 15+ global indices and metals. Futures are not offered. The instruments available on the platform are controlled by OneFunded, not by the trading platforms themselves.

Trading Hours & Overnight Policy

You can hold trades overnight across all stages. Swap fees (rollover/overnight financing charges) apply to overnight positions. Forex markets are available 24/5; cryptocurrencies are available 24/7. Trading hours for each instrument are visible within the platform; greyed-out instruments indicate a closed market. No auto-liquidation time or hard cutoff is published. Crypto is available 24/7, which includes weekends. Weekend holding for forex and other instruments is not separately addressed in OneFunded’s published documentation.

News Trading Policy

News trading is permitted across all stages, both evaluation and funded. OneFunded defines a News Volatility Period as the 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after the scheduled release of any high-impact news event (those marked in red on major economic calendars). During this window, you can open, modify, and close positions.

Trading activity that appears to exploit price spikes or abnormal volatility during the News Volatility Period may be flagged for compliance review. Pending orders such as stop-loss, take-profit, or limit orders triggered during the window that result in immediate position closures can raise compliance concerns. Repeated or suspicious trading behavior focused solely on the News Volatility Period may be deemed a policy breach. Potential consequences include warnings, suspension, mandatory challenge restart, or account termination.

Expert Advisors & Copy Trading

EAs are permitted but require pre-approval before use. You must email support@onefunded.com with the EA name and a link before running it on any OneFunded account. OneFunded reviews the EA for compatibility with their trading environment and fair-use rules. External trading software or bots used without pre-approval are prohibited.

Copy trading is permitted between your own accounts, meaning accounts registered to the same individual. It’s prohibited between accounts owned by different users, and coordinated strategies (signals, synchronized entries/exits, or shared master setups) across unrelated accounts are not allowed. The same copy trading rules apply throughout all phases.

High-frequency trading (HFT) and mass data entry software used to gain an advantage are explicitly prohibited.

Prohibited Practices

The following practices are prohibited on all accounts and may result in losing platform access:

  • Data freezing
  • Gap billing
  • Use of external, delayed, or slow data feeds
  • Trading on delayed charts
  • Latency arbitrage
  • Reverse arbitrage
  • Tick scalping strategies
  • Cross-account hedging
  • High-frequency trading and mass data entry software
  • Any other strategies the company deems prohibited

Additional Rules

Stop-Loss Requirement

All traders must set a stop-loss on every trade within the first 5 minutes of opening the position. If a trade is closed within 5 minutes of opening, a stop-loss must have been placed before closing. The Risk Team monitors compliance. Failing to apply a stop-loss on individual trades doesn’t immediately breach the account, but if more than 15% of a trader’s positions are executed without a stop-loss, OneFunded reserves the right to terminate the account.

Inactivity Rule

You must place at least one trade every 60 days during the evaluation stage to keep your account active. During the funded stage, the inactivity window tightens to 30 days. If the inactivity period is exceeded, the account is closed with no eligibility for refunds. On funded accounts, no payout bonuses are available upon inactivity closure either.

Max Margin Utilization Rule

OneFunded monitors margin usage on two levels. Per trade idea, the threshold is 20% of the initial account balance. For total account margin usage across all open positions, the threshold is 50% of the initial account balance. Exceeding either threshold is treated as a serious risk parameter violation and may result in account review or deactivation.

IP and Location Rule

You can trade from multiple devices and IP addresses, but the geographic region of those IPs must remain consistent. If OneFunded detects a regional change, they may request supporting documentation (such as an airline ticket, passport stamp, or live video confirmation). IPs associated with another user’s account or flagged for suspicious activity (including patterns consistent with copy trading or hedging across accounts) may result in account termination.


Trading Platforms

Available Platforms

OneFunded supports three platforms: TradeLocker, cTrader, and MT5.

TradeLocker is available to all clients globally. It’s accessible via web browser, as an iOS app, and as an Android app. TradeLocker uses TradingView charting and supports order types including market orders, pending orders, trailing stop-loss, and partial closes.

cTrader is available via iOS and Android app, but is not available to clients in the United States.

MT5 is available but restricted for clients in the United States and Turkey. MT5 services are provided via OneFunded Capital Ltd. (Saint Lucia). Clients in those countries can use TradeLocker instead.

Platform selection is made at the time of purchasing a challenge. The instruments, spreads, leverage, and session times available within any platform are controlled by OneFunded, not by the platform itself.


Billing & Account Management

Fee Structure

All challenge fees are one-time payments; there’s no recurring monthly subscription. Refund policy varies by program:

  • Flash: 100% of the challenge fee is refunded with your first payout after becoming a funded trader.
  • Core: 100% of the challenge fee is refunded with your first payout after becoming a funded trader.
  • Value: The challenge fee is not refundable under any circumstances.
  • Flex: The challenge fee is not refundable. However, passing the evaluation earns you a free additional Flex challenge of the same account size at no cost.

If you fail a challenge, the fee is not refunded regardless of the program type.

After passing the evaluation, you must complete KYC verification (proof of identity, proof of address, and a selfie) and sign a contract. The funded account is activated within 2 business days of the Risk Management team’s review.
