QT Funded Unveils QT 2.0: Comprehensive Plan Overhaul and Elite Program
QT Funded Announces Comprehensive Program Overhaul and Enhanced Benefits QT Funded is rolling out a series of significant platform updates, designed to offer greater flexibility, transparency, and opportunities for its traders. This overhaul includes the simplification of its funding plans, the introduction of the "Performance Protection Promise," and a new exclusive program for elite traders, QT Capital. Key Updates for Existing Users QT Prime Funded Accounts Traders with existing QT Prime funded accounts will be migrated to a new, improved set of rules. A form will be sent out shortly, allowing users to choose between the 2-Step plan (with a profit cap and 14-day payout cycle) or the 2-Step Elite plan (no profit cap and a 30-day cycle). Trading will be temporarily disabled until the plan selection is made. QT Power There are no changes for participants in existing QT Power evaluations; they can continue to trade and become funded under this plan as normal. However, the QT Power product is no longer available for new purchases. Existing QT Instant Accounts Responding to user feedback, the 3% payout buffer rule is temporarily waived for those who purchased a QT Instant plan before today. They will be able to request their first payout without this requirement, although it will apply in future cycles after the first withdrawal. Introducing the New QT Funded Plans QT Funded's offering has been streamlined into three main plans, each tailored for different trading styles and objectives. QT 2-Step This plan features industry-leading profit targets and a redesigned set of rules to be more trader-friendly: Profit Targets: 7% in Phase 1 and 5% in Phase 2. Maximum Drawdown: 10% Max Drawdown, 4% Daily Drawdown. Trading Rules: Completely reworked for greater clarity and flexibility (rules to be released shortly). Payout Cycles: Standard 30-day cycle, with 7-day or 14-day options available as an add-on. Profit Cap: A 5% profit cap per cycle will apply only for the first 3 payouts. QT 2-Step ELITE The "2-Step ELITE" plan is identical to the "QT 2-Step," with one crucial difference: No Profit Cap: Offers experienced traders the freedom to maximize their returns without any cap restrictions. Performance Protection Promise A first for the industry, this promise certifies the "QT 2-Step" and "QT 2-Step ELITE" plans: In Case of Breach: If a core rule is breached at payout request, the trader will be entitled to 10% of the profits in their account OR a complete refund of their evaluation fee, whichever is higher. Account Reset: The account will then be returned to Phase 1. Eligibility: Traders can utilize this protection up to 3 times during their tenure with QT Funded. QT Instant Our flagship direct-to-sim instant funding plan, QT Instant, has been updated with the following features: Maximum Drawdown: 6% trailing, calculated from the highest recorded balance or floating equity. Daily Drawdown: 3% static. Drawdown on Withdrawal: The trailing drawdown is locked at the starting balance when a withdrawal is made. Trading Requirements: Minimum of 5 separate trading days and maintaining a 25% Consistency Score. Payouts: A 3% buffer is required at payout, plus a 5% minimum withdrawal. Note: The QT Instant plan is also covered by the Performance Protection Promise. However, once the 10% profits or refund is claimed, the account is forfeited and not returned. QT Capital: The Invitation-Only Elite Program QT Funded introduces QT Capital, an exclusive program designed to reward its most premier traders. Focused on longevity and freedom, this program is crafted to foster growth and celebrate consistent performance. Exclusive Benefits: Daily payouts, access to VIP events, exclusive perks, and a competitive monthly salary. Invitation Only: Participation is by invitation, extended to traders who demonstrate consistent performance and prioritize longevity in their trading approach. Career Growth: Participants will begin as "Junior Analysts" and can advance to larger allocations and higher monthly salaries with continued performance. QT Funded invites traders to prepare for this new era, with more information regarding the status of current accounts and next steps to follow. The QT Team will continue to spot prospects, so Performance Pays!

QT Funded Implements New Tool of Risk
QT Funded has implemented a new tool of risk for its funded traders, seeking to optimize the management and transparency. This tool, active since the Christmas period, automates the daily verification of key rules. It monitors exposure, news trading, hedging, reverse trading, maximum allocation, use of CIDs and lot size. This automation seeks to streamline payments, offer greater clarity about possible infractions and improve the availability of the staff for support.
QT Funded: Earn 15% of Your Challenge Phase Profits
QT Funded has announced a new initiative that redefines the traditional model of trader evaluation phases. Effective immediately, traders will be able to earn 15% of the profits generated during their challenge phase. This measure transforms the evaluation phase, previously solely a test, into an opportunity to receive direct income before securing a funded account. This innovation allows traders to start monetizing their skills from the very beginning of their evaluation process. Additionally, the company is offering a 15% discount for early registrations to take advantage of this new feature. For more information and registration, visit qtfunded.quanttekel.com/15percent/.

This move reinforces QT's commitment to building a superior prop trading platform, delivering better technology, better conditions, and a growing global community for serious traders.
QT Elite Trader Competition: Win a $10,000 USD Grand Prize

QT Funded Announces Key Updates to Trading Rules and Payout Requirements
QT Funded has announced significant updates to its trading rules and payout requirements, following extensive feedback from its trading community. These changes are designed to enhance clarity, transparency, and operational consistency. The "News Rule" has been simplified for QT PRIME and QT INSTANT accounts purchased starting tomorrow. Traders will now only need to follow Forex Factory news listings, observing a 5-minute window on either side of the event, with the duration of speeches no longer being a factor. For existing funded accounts, the original speech rule will remain active. A new minimum payout requirement has been introduced, stipulating that all payout requests must meet at least 1% profit or $100 (excluding profit split), whichever amount is greater. This applies to all account types. Lastly, for QT Prime accounts, a trading activity requirement of at least four days has been implemented. Before submitting a payout or passing a phase, traders must complete these days demonstrating a similar trading style and volume/lots, ensuring consistent trading behavior. This measure applies only to the first cycle of funded accounts and aims to validate genuine performance; failure to meet it incurs no penalty, simply requiring a new cycle to comply.
QT Funded Launches QT Card for Transparent Trader Payouts and Rewards
QT Funded has announced the introduction of the QT Card, a new initiative aimed at enhancing trader payouts and loyalty reward systems. The QT Card will be available in virtual, physical, and metal formats, offering versatility and full transparency in its operations. Those interested in this new product can join the waitlist by visiting the official website: http://qtfunded.com/cards.
QT Funded compensates its clients for technical failure
QT Funded recognizes the difficulties in calculating the consistency score after compensating its clients with 1% for a recent technical failure. The company has allocated more than 2 million USD in compensations to all funded accounts. As previously announced, this compensation is not considered for the calculation of the consistency score. To facilitate the calculation, a consistency score calculator has been published: https://qtfunded.quanttekel.com/consistency-score-calculator.
QT Instant Removes Layering Rule and Allows Profit Withdrawals Without Drawdown Limits
QT Instant has implemented two significant updates for its users. The layering rule has been removed, allowing traders to stack positions according to their strategy. Furthermore, it is now possible to withdraw all profits without hitting drawdown limits; however, this only applies to new purchases.
