The FundingEra Challenge is a simulated trading evaluation designed to assess a trader’s discipline, consistency, and risk management.
All trading occurs on virtual accounts; no live funds are traded.
By participating, you agree to these Rules, the Master Trader Agreement, Terms of Service, Refund Policy, and Risk Disclosure.
All profit targets must be reached without violating any drawdown, risk, or compliance rules.
Targets are calculated based on the initial account balance.
To pass each phase, traders must reach the profit target and complete the minimum profitable trading days without breaching drawdown or risk limits.
For a trading day to be counted as a profitable day, the trader must generate at least 0.5% profit on that day.
Leverage: displayed on your dashboard upon account creation.
Instruments: Forex, commodities, indices, and cryptocurrencies (where available).
Platforms: cTrader, Platform 5, (depending on availability).
Trading Hours: permitted at all times except during platform maintenance or restricted news periods (see Section 7).
Lot Sizes: no hard caps, but exposure must remain within permitted risk parameters.
On Master Accounts, there is a hard breach rule limiting the maximum risk per trade idea to 2% of the total account balance.
This means that if you open multiple positions on the same asset and in the same direction, they are considered one trade idea, and the total combined risk across those positions cannot exceed 2% of your account balance.
All trades on Master Accounts must respect the One Minute Holding Rule.
Each position must remain open for a minimum of one (1) minute before it can be closed.
Closing a trade instantly or within seconds to capture artificial profits is not permitted and is considered a soft breach.
If a trader violates this rule:
On the first or second occurrence, the profits from those trades will be removed from the account balance.
If the same violation occurs more than twice, it becomes a hard breach, leading to the termination of the Master Account.
The following are strictly prohibited and may result in termination and forfeiture of profits:
Latency / Feed Exploitation: trading on delayed, external, or manipulated data feeds; gap trading or reverse arbitrage.
Arbitrage: including triangular, statistical, spatial, or yield-curve arbitrage, or similar market-making practices.
Copy / Group Trading: mirroring trades across multiple individuals or coordinating to manipulate outcomes.
Cross-Account Hedging: hedging between FundingEra accounts or between a FundingEra account and an external broker.
AI / HFT Abuse: using ultra-high-frequency bots or automated systems to exploit latency or tick flow.
Unrealistic Exposure: grid, martingale, tick-scalping, or one-sided “betting” strategies.
Third-Party Access: allowing another person or entity to operate the account.
Illiquid Order Tactics: manipulating order books or exploiting off-market pricing.
