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 FLASH: 7% trailing. Locks at the starting balance once you reach a 7% gain or after a payout.
  • 1-Step NOVA: 6% trailing on evaluation, 5% on funded. Locks at the starting balance after a payout.
  • 2-Step PRO v2: 9% static
  • Instant Funding: 6% trailing. Locks at the starting balance after a payout.
  • Instant Prime: 5% trailing. Locks at the starting balance after a payout.
  • X-DAILY: EOD trailing in evaluation and funded stages, based on the highest closing balance. Locks at the starting balance after a 5% gain or the first funded payout.
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.

  • 1-Step FLASH: 80% (90% with add-on)
  • 1-Step NOVA: 90% (100% with add-on)
  • 2-Step PRO v2: 85% (up to 100% with add-on)
  • Instant Funding: Initial at 60%, increasing by 10% per payout, up to 90%

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.
