Full refund after first payout

The evaluation fee is refundable. Under the published standard conditions, the refund unlocks alongside the fifth successful payout.

• Ability Challenge: First payout after 30 days, next every 14 days

Depends on the program. Rapid and Ascend allow an early payout after 3 days with a 40% split. Standard payouts retain an 85% split and require the applicable trading days, profit and SFX Stability Index.

Requests are processed within 48 business hours. SFX advertises $1,000 compensation if it misses that deadline.

Maximum of $10,000 per request for the first two payouts. This limit is removed afterwards.

Do not open new trades or increase existing ones within 3 minutes before or after high-impact economic releases or official speeches, as this behavior may be considered excessive risk-taking.

Only high-impact FOMC events fall under this restriction; low- and medium-impact FOMC events are exempt. Other major/high-impact news restrictions remain unchanged. This update applies to existing and new accounts across Ability Challenge, Ability One and FTP Instant Funding.

Funded accounts restrict trading from 2 minutes before until 2 minutes after high-impact news. News straddling, news bracketing and manipulation of the simulated environment are also prohibited.

6 months

Accounts are closed after 30 days of inactivity.

The formula for calculation of the Consistency Score is: [1 - (most profitable trading day)/(combined profit on all profitable days)]*100:

1. If the score is above 70 then the trader is considered as consistent.
2. If the score lies between 50 - 70 then the risk team will manually review the account and decide whether the trader should continue trading until the score becomes above 70 or pass them.
3. If the score is less than 50, then the trader shall continue trading the account until the score reaches above 50 and then the risk team can take a call.

Maximum SFX Stability Index for payout: Rapid 15%, 1-Step Pro 20%, Ascend 25% and Instant 15%.
