My Funded Futures rules

How many evaluation phases a trader passes before the funded account: 0 on an instant-funding plan, 1 for a one-step evaluation, 2 for two steps.

Whether the funded account trades simulated capital, live capital, or simulated capital first and live capital later.

The trading platforms and data connections the account can be traded on.

What the account may trade: the exchanges or product list, and any products excluded.

How many micro contracts count as one E-mini toward a contract limit.

When the firm's trading day begins. A trade after this time counts toward the next trading day for every daily rule: daily loss, consistency, winning days and minimum days.

The firm's trading day as it states it, from its open to its close, with the time zone it uses.

What makes a day count toward minimum trading days: any day with a trade, or only a day with at least a set profit.

The profit a day must make to count as a trading day, when a trading day counts only with a minimum profit; null when any day with a trade counts.

What happens when the daily loss limit is reached: trading stops for the day and the account stays open, or the account fails; null when there is no daily loss limit.

Where a trailing floor stops rising: at the starting balance, at the balance of the profit target, or never.

Where the trailing floor stops rising when that depends on the platform the account trades on: one row per platform.

True when touching the drawdown floor at any moment, open profit and loss included, fails the evaluation, even when the floor itself is set at the end of the day.

Days that must each make at least a set profit before the evaluation can pass; null when not required.

Calendar days the evaluation may run before it expires; null when it has no time limit.

Whether the evaluation passes the moment the target is reached or at the day's close.

Business days the firm takes to send a payout once it is approved.

Free resets the firm banks for the trader (for example one per billing period), and when they expire.

Charged once when the account becomes funded; 0 when there is none.

A version of the plan sold at a different price with no activation fee, with its prices.

True when the firm refunds the evaluation fee with the first payout.

The commissions the firm sets per contract, by contract size.

Whether bots, automated strategies and algorithmic execution may trade the account. Not allowed means a strategy tested on AlgoLift can only be traded there by hand.

Whether trading through major economic releases is allowed, restricted to outside a window around them, or not allowed.

The window around releases and the releases it covers, when news trading is restricted.

The hours in which the account may trade, New York time; null when it may trade whenever the exchange is open.

The time every position must be closed (or is closed by the firm) each day, New York time; null when positions may be held past the close.

Whether a position may be held from one trading day into the next.

Whether a position may be held over the weekend.

Whether opposite positions in the same or related instruments may be held at once, in one account or across accounts.

Whether trades may be copied between accounts: allowed, only between the trader's own accounts at the firm, or not allowed.

The most evaluations a trader may hold at once (or buy in a month, when the firm says so in the note); null when there is no limit.

The most funded accounts a trader may hold at once; null when there is no limit.

The most live accounts a trader may hold at once; null when there is no limit.

The most order executions allowed in one trading day; null when there is no limit.

The shortest time a trade may be held, when the firm restricts very short trades; null when there is no such rule.

Any limit on one trade's loss or open risk (a share of the drawdown, a required stop), as the firm states it.

Restrictions on trading near an exchange price limit, and what a breach costs.

Trading practices the firm forbids (for example exploiting data delays, coordinated trading, or holding to avoid the rules), as it lists them.

Any other activity the firm requires to keep the account open (a trade every week, qualifying days in a rolling window), as it states it.

When the firm checks the trader's identity: before purchase, before funding, or before the first payout.

What the firm does when a rule is broken (a soft breach that pauses the day, a hard breach that closes the account, profits withheld), as it states it.

Decisions the firm reserves to itself (reviews before a payout or a live move, closing accounts it judges to break the spirit of the rules).
