The Funded Trader

The Funded Trader is a proprietary trading firm that provides funded accounts to traders who pass their evaluation challenge. PropMason tracks rule changes and community feedback to help traders make informed decisions. Always conduct your own due diligence before funding an account.

The Funded Trader offers up to 80% profit split to funded traders. This means you keep 80% of all profits generated in your funded account. Check their current pricing page for the latest split terms, as firms occasionally update these figures.

The Funded Trader uses a trailing drawdown — meaning the maximum loss limit follows your equity peak and tightens as your account grows. Your account will be closed if losses exceed 8% of the applicable balance. Understanding your drawdown type is critical — trailing drawdown is generally stricter than static drawdown.

The Funded Trader's evaluation challenge starts from $42. The evaluation fee is refundable upon passing and receiving your first payout. Prices vary by account size — larger funded accounts require higher evaluation fees.

At The Funded Trader, first payout is available after 7-14 days, and payouts are processed bi-weekly. Always verify the latest payout terms directly with the firm, as conditions may change. PropMason tracks rule changes so you can see if payout terms have been modified recently.

The Funded Trader supports MT4, MT5, cTrader, DXTrade, Match-Trader for trading. MetaTrader 4 (MT4) is widely used due to its robust EA (Expert Advisor) support and familiarity among prop firm traders.

PropMason automatically monitors The Funded Trader's website and T&Cs for changes to key metrics including profit splits, drawdown limits, payout rules, and challenge pricing. When changes are detected — whether silently updated or officially announced — they are logged in our changelog so traders are never caught off-guard by unexpected rule changes.
