Max Drawdown

1/2/3-Step: static. Instant: trailing closed balance, updated at 00:00 UTC; does not lock at starting balance. Access: trailing equity, including floating profit. After withdrawal, recalculated from the new balance, except Pro, where the original floor remains.

  • 2-Step Classic: Evaluation uses a 10% static maximum drawdown from the starting balance, measured on equity and reset when Phase 2 begins. Once funded, a 10% drop from the original balance while in B-Book causes a permanent breach.
  • 2-Step Pro: 8% static maximum drawdown.
  • 1-Step Classic: Static evaluation drawdown based on starting balance and measured on equity, including open positions.
Profit Split

100% with add-on. First Atlas Protector trigger: 50% for the account's remaining life. First On-Demand payout: 50% for that payout only.

2-Step Classic starts at a 70% trader profit split. 2-Step Pro starts at 80%. The split applies to eligible A-Book profits generated above the starting balance and after clearing any prior B-Book offset; on 2-Step Pro it is calculated when the payout is requested. Fundex's legal terms state that payments are discretionary bonuses rather than a fixed contractual split.
1-Step Classic: the trader profit split is shown in each challenge and is calculated when the payout is requested.

Free Trial

Daily Drawdown

Resets at 00:00 UTC from equity. Standard plans subtract a fixed amount based on account size; Instant and Access subtract a percentage of equity at reset. Intraday profit does not raise the daily floor.

Evaluation: the daily loss limit is recalculated at 00:00 UTC from the balance at that time and measured on equity, including open positions. The applicable percentage is shown in each challenge. There is no daily loss limit at the funded stage.

Maximum Risk Limit
Yes

Funded: the greater of net floating loss and the sum of losing positions, at 2% of initial balance, trigger Atlas Protector. First trigger: positions closed and split cut to 50%; second: account closed. Using 80% of margin closes positions and deducts their profits. Risk per instrument limited to 50% of the daily limit where applicable.

Limited

During both evaluation phases, a single trade cannot lose more than 3% of the balance, including floating losses. The first violation generates a warning. This limit does not apply once funded.
1-Step Classic: Position exposure is measured as notional value relative to equity. Per position, up to 25% is compliant, over 25% through 40% generates a warning, and above 40% is a violation subject to review. Total simultaneous exposure during evaluation: up to 50% is compliant, over 50% through 80% generates a warning, and above 80% is a violation. Once funded, total exposure above 60% is a violation.
