• Instant: 10% scaling target

• 1-Step Express: 6% relative trailing maximum drawdown; locks at the initial balance

• Instant: 6% relative trailing maximum drawdown; locks at the initial balance
• Activation Accounts challenge: 6% static maximum drawdown
• Activation Accounts funded: 6% trailing maximum drawdown; locks at the initial balance

• 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 Express, 2-Step Classic and Instant: start at 80%; eligible accounts can scale to 90% at 20% profit and 100% at 30% profit. An optional add-on can start the account at 90%.
• Activation Accounts: fixed 80% profit split; it does not increase over time.

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.

• Activation Accounts challenge: 4%, balance based
• Activation Accounts funded: 3%, balance based

No minimum trading days requirement on any program. Account must be active within any 30-day calendar period (at least one trade opened and closed) or it will be hard-breached for inactivity.

Evaluation: reaching the daily or total loss threshold causes a breach. Funded: permanent breach follows four consecutive unrecovered B-Book switches, or a 10% decline from the original balance while the account is in B-Book.

• 2-Step Classic: 5 days in each evaluation phase. To count, at least one trade must be opened with a notional value of at least 5% of the account balance before leverage.
• 2-Step Pro: No minimum trading days.

EAs, Algos and Bots are allowed. Must not be used for copy trading or hedging across accounts. EAs may be requested for review upon evaluation pass. FT+ does not provide support for third-party EAs.

EAs and automated systems are allowed when the underlying strategy is the trader's own. Arbitrage, HFT, martingale, grid, environment-exploitation and external trade-replication systems are prohibited.

Hedging is allowed on the same account (opposing positions on the same instrument). Hedging across multiple accounts is strictly prohibited.

Hedging or arbitraging across Fundex accounts, or between Fundex and external accounts, is prohibited. The website does not clarify internal hedging within one account.

• 2-Step Classic: During evaluation, every trade must remain open for at least 3 minutes, including when TP or SL is triggered. The first violation generates a warning and later violations may cause a breach. There is no minimum holding time once funded.
• 2-Step Pro: No minimum holding time during evaluation or once funded.

• Symbol Loss Limit (2-Step Classic): Maximum loss per single symbol per day, based on balance at 16:59 EST. Hard breach rule.
• Margin utilization review triggers at milestones (evaluation passes, scaling requests, withdrawals). Not a hard limit but triggers manual risk team review.

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.
