One-step, two-step, and three-step tracks across forex and futures

Accounts from $3K to $250K span distinct evaluation programs rather than a single challenge template. On the CFD and forex side, traders choose between the one-step Hyper Growth and Pro Growth plans, the two-step High Stakes Classic and High Stakes New variants, and the three-step Bootcamp track. On the futures side, the catalog adds Futures Day Trade and Futures Swing, which quote rules in dollars instead of forex percentages.

Drawdown limits from 4% end of day to 10% on High Stakes

Allowed drawdown ranges from 4% to 10% across the lineup, paired with a 3% to 5% daily drawdown cap and evaluation profit targets of 6% to 10%. Futures Day Trade and Futures Swing enforce a 4% end-of-day maximum drawdown, Bootcamp caps overall losses at 5%, Hyper Growth and Pro Growth set a 6% limit, and High Stakes Classic and High Stakes New allow 8% to 10% (8% max loss and 4% daily loss on the $50K and $100K table rows). Weekend holding is allowed, EAs are conditional, and news trading is allowed on Hyper Growth and Pro Growth but conditional on High Stakes Classic and High Stakes New.

Bi-weekly payouts after a 14-day wait

Funded traders earn an 80% to 100% profit split across the catalog. Your first withdrawal opens 14 days after funding, and subsequent payouts run bi-weekly (every 2 weeks).

Risk Analysis

Drawdown room varies widely by track, tightening to a 4% end-of-day cap on Futures Day Trade and Futures Swing and 5% on Bootcamp, alongside a 3% to 5% daily drawdown limit. News trading is conditional on High Stakes Classic and High Stakes New even though it is allowed on Hyper Growth and Pro Growth, and EA use is also conditional. In addition, the drawdown calculation type on the non-futures tracks is not published.
