Scaling for consistent performance without a new evaluation. Documentation allows exceeding the standard allocation but does not publish exact thresholds.

Two Steps
Yes
Yes
Max Drawdown
  • 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.

1-Step, 2-Step, 1-Step Daily and 2-Step Daily: 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 1-Step Daily and 2-Step Daily, where the original floor remains.

Profit Split

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.

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

Free Trial
Yes

A free $1,000 Test Account is available to eligible traders who do not currently hold a Fundex account. It uses Fundex Terminal only, with a 10% target, 5% daily drawdown, 10% maximum drawdown and 5 minimum trading days. Profits cannot be withdrawn and completion rewards may vary.

Yes

Website offers a free $1,000 simulated trial, one per verified person; KYC required.

Profit After Breach

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.

No data
Daily Drawdown

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.

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.

Requires Stop Loss
No
No
Scalping
Limited
  • 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.
  • 1-Step Classic: Every evaluation trade must remain open for at least 3 minutes, including TP/SL closures. The first violation generates a warning; repeated violations cause a breach. No minimum holding time once funded.

No
No

No
No
Maximum Risk Limit
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.

Yes

Funded: a net floating loss of 2% of initial balance triggers Atlas Protector. First trigger: positions closed and split cut to 50%; second: account closed. Using 80% of margin closes positions and deducts their profits.

Copy Trading
No
Limited

Only between your own Atlas accounts; copying other traders or external accounts is prohibited.
