Executive Summary
FTMO has operated out of the Czech Republic since 2015, running CFD evaluations from €10K to €200K across two tracks: 2-Step Standard and 1-Step. Both plans set a 10% maximum drawdown and a 10% profit target, with profit splits from 80% to 90%. It suits forex traders choosing between a Static loss floor on 2-Step Standard and a 90% split on 1-Step.

View the profile on TrustpilotEuro-denominated accounts across two evaluations
Traders pick from €10K, €25K, €50K, €100K, and €200K accounts in either the 2-Step Standard or the 1-Step evaluation. Profit splits run from 80% to 90% across the firm, with the 1-Step table paying a 90% split against a 10% profit target. The 2-Step Standard plan requires 4 minimum trading days, while the 1-Step minimum day requirement is not published.
Static versus end-of-day trailing drawdown
Both tracks give you a 10% maximum drawdown, but they calculate the floor differently. On 2-Step Standard, the 10% maximum drawdown is Static, so the loss floor stays fixed to your starting balance even after you build a profit cushion. On 1-Step, the 10% limit uses Trailing EOD, which moves up at the close of the day as your balance reaches new highs. Daily drawdown spans 3% to 5% across the lineup, with the 1-Step table setting a tighter 3% daily loss limit.
First payout timing and the 1-Step consistency rule
Funded accounts can request their first payout 14 days after the first executed trade. If you choose the 1-Step program, your trading must also satisfy a consistency rule where your best trading day cannot exceed 50% of your positive days' profit. Only winning days count toward that basis, and any profit above the 50% threshold may not count toward your payout.
Risk Analysis
Choosing 1-Step tightens risk in three places: a 3% daily loss limit against a 10% target, a 10% Trailing EOD floor that rises with closed gains, and a cap keeping your best day at or below 50% of positive days' profit. Only winning days count toward that 50% basis, so profits above the cap may not count toward a payout. News trading and weekend holding rules are not published, so check both before trading.

Consistency Rule
Your best trading day cannot exceed 50% of your positive days' profit. Only winning days count toward this basis; profits above the threshold may not count toward your payout.
Applies to: 1-Step
Your most profitable trading day (“Best Day”) must not account for more than 50% of your Positive Days' Profit.
Consistency rules may limit your profit-taking ability. Consider whether this aligns with your trading style before choosing this firm.
What is a Consistency Rule?
Some prop firms limit how much profit you can make in a single day relative to your total profits. This can reduce excessive risk and encourages consistent, disciplined trading over time.
