Frequently Asked Questions
What is the 1-Step Evaluation (Pay After You Pass)?
It is a single-phase challenge where traders pay a small entry fee upfront and the remaining fee only after passing. Traders must achieve the 12% profit target without violating any rules. Upon passing, the trader receives a funded account with 70% to 95% profit split.
Are there any time limits to complete the Evaluation?
No. There are no maximum trading days. You may trade at your own pace, but you must trade for at least 5 days.
What is the profit target?
You must achieve a 12% profit target on the account balance during the evaluation.
What is the Max Drawdown?
6% trailing drawdown. This follows your account equity until it reaches the initial balance. Once it locks at the starting balance, it stops trailing. A breach results in immediate failure.
What is the Daily Drawdown?
The maximum daily loss allowed is 4% of your end-of-day balance. Exceeding this triggers an instant breach.
Are EAs and automated strategies allowed?
Yes, provided they do not violate prohibited strategies including HFT, arbitrage, grid/martingale, tick scalping, or copying other traders. The EA must also follow the 3-minute stop-loss and 60-second minimum hold rules.
Can I hold trades overnight and over the weekend?
Yes. Overnight and weekend holding is allowed during both evaluation and funded phases.
Is news trading allowed?
Yes — but no trades can be opened 5 minutes before or after high-impact news events.
Is a Stop Loss required?
Yes. Must be placed within 3 minutes of opening a trade. Two violations = soft breaches.
Is copy trading allowed?
Yes, from your personal account only. Copying external traders or signals is prohibited.
Do I get a refund of my fee?
Yes, after 3 successful payouts once funded.
What happens if I am inactive?
Accounts with 30 days of no trading activity will be closed.
Are there consistency or lot-size rules?
No. This plan does not have consistency or lot-size rules.
These program-specific rules apply alongside the General Trading Rules that govern all FundYourFX accounts — including leverage, stop-loss requirements, HFT restrictions, and news trading rules.
