How the 1-Step Standard Works
Traders complete one evaluation phase with a clear profit objective
There are no additional phases or progression steps
Once the profit target is met and all risk rules are followed, the trader moves directly to a funded account
This structure removes unnecessary complexity and allows traders to focus purely on execution and risk management.
Trading Conditions
Unlimited time to complete the challenge
Clear daily and overall risk limits
Expert Advisors (EAs) and automated strategies are allowed
All trading takes place on Platform 5
The same core risk rules apply once the account becomes funded, ensuring continuity and transparency.
Funded Account & Rewards
After passing the evaluation:
Traders receive a funded account
Profits can be withdrawn based on the selected payout schedule
Traders may earn up to 100% of profits if a profit split upgrade was selected at checkout
Optional Add-Ons (Available at Checkout Only)
Traders can customize their account during checkout with the following optional add-ons:
100% Profit Split – Increase your profit split to keep 100% of your earnings
