Questions? Let us help with that.

A Simulated Funded Account is traded in a demo environment. Evaluation plans provide this account after you pass the required stages and meet the account requirements. Instant Funding and Instant Mini Funding provide direct access without an evaluation.

Standard-plan news restrictions follow the ForexFactory Red Folder calendar and Maven’s affected-instrument list. Some macroeconomic events restrict all instruments. The window also covers take-profit execution and automatic closure on reaching the challenge profit target. During the Challenge, opening or closing a trade in the restricted window is a hard breach. In the Simulated Funded Account, profits generated in the restricted window are excluded.

For Standard 1 Step, Standard 2 Step and Standard 3 Step, the restriction runs from 2 minutes before until 2 minutes after the relevant release.

Equity-based drawdown calculates your daily loss limit using the higher of your balance or equity at 00:00 UTC. This means unrealized profits are included when determining your daily drawdown limit.

Example: On a $10,000 account, if your equity at 00:00 UTC is $10,300 and your balance is $10,000, the higher amount is $10,300. With a 4% daily drawdown, your limit is $412, meaning your equity must not fall below $9,888 that day.

Trailing drawdown is a moving loss limit that follows your highest account equity. As your equity increases, the drawdown limit moves up with it.

Example: On a $10,000 account with a 5% trailing drawdown, the initial limit is $9,500. If your equity reaches $11,000, the limit moves to $10,450. If your equity falls below $10,450, the account breaches the drawdown limit.

Static drawdown is a fixed loss limit based on your initial account balance. The drawdown limit does not move up as your balance or equity increases.

Example: On a $10,000 account with an 8% static drawdown, your drawdown limit is $9,200. This limit remains fixed, even if your account grows.

To complete your KYC verification, please ensure that all personal information you provide is accurate and matches your valid government-issued identity document.

Required Information and Documents

• Accurate Personal Details: Your information must match the details on your government-issued ID. Inaccurate information or missing documents may result in KYC failure.
• Consistent Email Address: Use the same email address throughout your Maven journey, including when purchasing multiple accounts. Breaching an account does not mean you need a new email address. Continue using your existing email address if you purchase another challenge. Using different email addresses may affect your KYC verification.
• Government-Issued ID: Submit a valid identity document, such as a passport, driver's license, residence permit, or national ID card.
• Payment Card: Use a payment card registered in your own name. Third-party payment cards may prevent you from completing KYC or receiving a Simulated Funded Account.
• Nigerian Traders: Nigerian traders may be required to provide a NIN number and a Selfie taken on the same day.

Important KYC Requirements

• You must use your own identity and personal information. Using another person's ID, email address, or payment card may result in automatic KYC rejection. Having another person in the camera frame during the KYC verification process will result in account termination.
• Traders must be 18 years of age or older. Underage traders are not eligible to complete KYC.
• Personal information cannot be changed once you have placed a trade in your Challenge account or during the KYC process.

Accepted Documents

For the complete list of identity documents accepted by Veriff, please visit:

https://www.veriff.com/supported-countries

Your IP address should remain within the same geographical region throughout your Maven journey to verify that you are trading independently.

If your IP address changes significantly, Maven may request proof or an explanation for the change. This may include travel documents, live location verification, or other supporting evidence deemed appropriate by Maven.

Changing your location may require verification. If you travel overseas, you may be asked to provide supporting documents, such as a plane ticket or travel itinerary, to verify the location change.

Excessive scalping means holding more than 50% of your trades for less than 60 seconds (1 minute).

Example of Excessive Scalping:

A trader makes 50 trades in total.

• 26 trades are held for less than 60 seconds.
• 24 trades are held for 60 seconds or longer.

26 out of 50 trades is 52%, which exceeds the permitted 50%.

This is considered excessive scalping and is not allowed.

All-in trading refers to risking an amount that could breach your daily drawdown or maximum drawdown in a single trade or setup.

All-in trading is not permitted on any Maven Challenge or Simulated Funded Account.

This includes:

• No stop-loss: Opening a trade without a stop-loss and holding it until you pass or fail the challenge.
• Risking too much: Setting a stop-loss that risks more than your account's allowed drawdown limit.
• Layering positions: Opening multiple trades on the same instrument and in the same direction without proper risk management, or when the combined risk exceeds your allowed drawdown limit.

Examples of All-in trading

Example 1: No stop-loss

A trader opens a 1-lot EUR/USD trade without a stop-loss. The trader holds the position until the account either passes or fails the challenge.

This is considered all-in trading because the trader is relying on one trade to determine the outcome of the account.

Example 2: Risking more than the daily or maximum drawdown limit

A trader has a $10,000 Two-Step Challenge with a 4% daily drawdown limit ($400).

The trader opens a EUR/USD trade with a stop-loss that risks 6% of the account ($600).

If the stop-loss is hit, the account will exceed its drawdown limit and fail the challenge. This is considered all-in trading.

Example 3: Layering positions

A trader opens multiple EUR/USD trades in the same direction The trader does not use a stop-loss, or the combined risk of the trades exceeds the account's drawdown limit.

This is considered all-in trading.

Example 4: Multiple trades with open risk

A trader opens multiple trades across multiple assets, using stop-loss for these trades. However, the combined risk of these trades is greater than the drawdown limits.

Gamifying the challenge means using opposing positions across accounts to create a near-guaranteed chance of passing, such as going long on one account and short on another.

Example: You open a buy trade on Account A and an equal sell trade on Account B at the same time. If the market moves up, Account A profits while Account B loses; if the market moves down, Account B profits while Account A loses. This is considered gamifying the challenge rather than genuine trading.

This also includes reversing positions between Maven and another prop firm to offset risk.

Trading large portions of your account on single bets with a 1:1.25 or lower risk-to-reward ratio may also be considered gamifying the challenge.

This approach is not permitted.

Maven prohibits trading practices that exploit the demo-trading environment or attempt to bypass the intended trading rules.

The following are prohibited:

High-Frequency Trading (HFT): Exploiting demo-trader inefficiencies through high-frequency strategies.

Toxic Trading / Order Flow: Strategies designed to exploit demo execution or pricing inefficiencies.

Arbitrage: Long/short arbitrage and reverse arbitrage.

Tick Scalping: Exploiting small tick-level price movements.

Server Execution Exploitation: Using server execution inefficiencies for profit.

Copy Trading: Copying trades from another individual. If detected, both accounts may be breached.

Grid/Gap Trading: Grid and gap trading strategies are prohibited across all Challenge and Simulated Funded Accounts.

Reverse/Group Hedging: Prohibited as described under Gamifying the Challenge.

Exclusive Hedging: Hedging accounts are prohibited.

Expert Advisors (EAs): EAs and automated trading are prohibited across all Maven platforms. All trades must be executed manually.

Gamifying the Challenge: Prohibited as described above, including betting solely on maximum drawdown or take-profit levels.

For rule assessment, a trade may comprise one position or multiple entries on the same pair with similar timings and lot sizes. Entries with vastly smaller lot sizes do not count as separate trades.

Your account will be terminated if you perform any of these actions.

For Standard 1 Step, Standard 2 Step, Standard 3 Step, Buy Now Pay Later and Instant Funding Simulated Funded Accounts, a maximum of $10,000 before the reward split may be withdrawn across two payouts or within any rolling 30-day period.

In the Standard 1 Step Challenge, traders must meet a profit target of 8%.

Standard 1 Step Challenge Profit Target Breakdown by Account Size

Account Size	Profit Target (8%)
$2,000	$160
$5,000	$400
$10,000	$800
$20,000	$1,600
$50,000	$4,000
$100,000	$8,000

1. Trading & Account Review (1–3 Business Days)

Once you reach the profit target, your trades will automatically close, and your account will be disabled and placed under review.

2. Receive Your Challenge Certificate

Our team will review your trading history. Once approved, you’ll receive a congratulatory email and your Challenge Certificate.

3. Complete KYC & Receive Your Simulated Funded Account

You’ll receive a KYC email with instructions to submit the required documents. Once your KYC is successfully verified, typically within 1 business day, you’ll receive your Simulated Funded Account.

The Standard 1 Step Challenge and Simulated Funded Account use the same loss limits: 3% daily loss and 5% trailing maximum drawdown.

Daily Loss Limit: 3% (Equity-Based)

• The daily drawdown resets based on the higher of your equity or balance at 00:00 UTC.
• Your account must not exceed a 3% loss within a trading day.

Example: You have a $10,000 account, open a trade, and leave it running overnight. At 00:00 UTC, your equity is $10,300, while your balance is $10,000. Your maximum daily drawdown is 3% of $10,300 ($309). Your account will breach the daily drawdown if your equity falls below $9,991 that day.

Maximum Drawdown: 5% (Trailing)

• Your maximum drawdown moves up with your highest running equity, including unrealized profit from open trades.

Example: With a $10,000 account and a 5% trailing drawdown, your initial limit is $9,500. If your running equity reaches $11,000, the limit moves to $10,450. Falling below $10,450 breaches the drawdown limit.

Note: The trailing drawdown is based on running equity, not just closed trades.

Exceeding either limit will result in a breach of the Challenge or Simulated Funded Account.

There is no minimum trading days requirement for the Standard 1 Step Challenge or Simulated Funded Accounts. You may pass the challenge in a day.

Accounts must have at least one trading activity within every 30 days to remain active.

At least 50% of your trades must be held for at least 60 seconds (1 minute). Trades held for exactly 60 seconds qualify.

The Red Folder news restrictions in the General FAQ apply to this Challenge and Simulated Funded Account, including take-profit and automatic profit-target closures.

Example: If a Red Folder news release is scheduled for 2:00 PM, you cannot open or close a trade between 1:58 PM and 2:02 PM.

The standard reward split is 80%. With the applicable add-on, the reward split increases to 90%.

Note: Add-ons must be selected at checkout when purchasing the account. They cannot be added after the account has been purchased.

The minimum withdrawal request is $20 in profit before the reward split is applied. The amount you receive is your applicable share of that profit.

Your first payout is available 10 business days after your first trade on the Simulated Funded Account. Each subsequent 10-business-day period starts with your first trade after the previous payout.

In the Standard 2 Step Challenge, traders must meet a profit target of 8% in Phase 1 and a 5% profit target in Phase 2.

Standard 2 Step Challenge Profit Target Breakdown by Account Size

Account Size	Profit Target (8%)	Profit Target (5%)
$2,000	Phase 1 - $160	Phase 2 - $100

1. Trading & Account Review (1–3 Business Days)

You must meet both the profit target and the minimum profitable-day requirement for each evaluation phase. Reaching the profit target alone does not qualify you to pass. After you complete the final phase and satisfy all requirements, your trades will automatically close, and your account will be disabled and placed under review.

2. Receive Your Challenge Certificate

Our team will review your trading history. Once approved, you’ll receive a congratulatory email and your Challenge Certificate.

3. Complete KYC & Receive Your Simulated Funded Account

You’ll receive a KYC email with instructions to submit the required documents. Once your KYC is successfully verified, typically within 1 business day, you’ll receive your Simulated Funded Account.

The Standard 2 Step Challenge and Simulated Funded Account use the same loss limits: 4% daily loss and 8% static maximum drawdown.

Daily Loss Limit: 4% (Equity-Based)

• The daily drawdown resets based on the higher of your equity or balance at 00:00 UTC.
• Your account must not exceed a 4% loss within a trading day.

Example: You have a $10,000 account, open a trade, and leave it running overnight. At 00:00 UTC, your equity is $10,300, while your balance is $10,000. Your maximum daily drawdown is 4% of $10,300 ($412). Your account will breach the daily drawdown if your equity falls below $9,888 that day.

Maximum Drawdown: 8% (Static)

• Your maximum drawdown is 8% of the initial account balance and remains fixed.
• The drawdown limit does not increase when your account equity or balance grows.

Example: With a $10,000 account, your maximum drawdown is $800, so your equity must not fall below $9,200.

Exceeding either limit will result in a breach of the Challenge or Simulated Funded Account.

You need at least 3 profitable days in each evaluation phase and 3 new profitable days for each funded payout cycle. Each qualifying day must earn at least 0.5% of the initial account balance. The days do not need to be consecutive.

Example for a $10,000 account:

Days 1, 3, and 4 count as the 3 required profitable days. Day 2 does not qualify because the profit is below 0.5%.

Trading Day	Minimum Profit	Qualifies?	Total Profitable Days
Day 1	0.5% ($50)	✅	1
Day 2	0.3% ($30)	❌	1
Day 3	0.5% ($50)	✅	2
Day 4	0.5% ($50)	✅	3

Accounts must have at least one trading activity within every 30 days to remain active.

The Standard 3 Step Challenge and Simulated Funded Account use the same loss limits: 2% daily loss and 3% static maximum drawdown.

Daily Loss Limit: 2% (Equity-Based)

• The daily drawdown resets based on the higher of your equity or balance at 00:00 UTC.
• Your account must not exceed a 2% loss within a trading day.

Example: You have a $10,000 account, open a trade, and leave it running overnight. At 00:00 UTC, your equity is $10,100, while your balance is $10,000. Your maximum daily drawdown is 2% of $10,100 ($202). Your account will breach the daily drawdown if your equity falls below $9,898 that day.

Maximum Drawdown: 3% (Static)

• Your maximum drawdown is 3% of the initial account balance and remains fixed.
• The drawdown limit does not increase when your account equity or balance grows.

Example: With a $10,000 account, your maximum drawdown is $300, so your equity must not fall below $9,700.

Exceeding either limit will result in a breach of the Challenge or Simulated Funded Account.

There is no minimum trading days requirement for the Standard 3 Step Challenge or Simulated Funded Accounts. You may pass the challenge in a day.

Accounts must have at least one trading activity within every 30 days to remain active.

You must meet both the profit target and the minimum profitable-day requirement for each evaluation phase. Reaching the profit target alone does not qualify you to pass. After you complete the final phase and satisfy all requirements, your trades will automatically close, and your account will be disabled and placed under review.

2. Receive Your Challenge Certificate

3. Complete KYC & Receive Your Simulated Funded Account

You’ll receive a KYC email with instructions to submit the required documents. Once your KYC is successfully verified, typically within 1 business day, you’ll receive your Simulated Funded Account.

The 2 Step OMO Challenge and Simulated Funded Account use the same loss limits: 4% daily loss and 8% static maximum drawdown. The M2 Account Saver also applies as described below.

Daily Loss Limit: 4% (Equity-Based)

• The daily drawdown resets based on the higher of your equity or balance at 00:00 UTC.
• Your account must not exceed a 4% loss within a trading day.

Example: You have a $10,000 account, open a trade, and leave it running overnight. At 00:00 UTC, your equity is $10,300, while your balance is $10,000. Your maximum daily drawdown is 4% of $10,300 ($412). Your account will breach the daily drawdown if your equity falls below $9,888 that day.

Maximum Drawdown: 8% (Static)

• Your maximum drawdown is 8% of the initial account balance and remains fixed.
• The drawdown limit does not increase when your account equity or balance grows.

Example: With a $10,000 account, your maximum drawdown is $800, so your equity must not fall below $9,200.

Exceeding either limit will result in a breach of the Challenge or Simulated Funded Account.

You need at least 4 profitable days in each evaluation phase and 4 new profitable days for each funded payout cycle. Each qualifying day must earn at least 0.5% of the initial account balance. The days do not need to be consecutive.

Example for a $10,000 account:

Days 1, 3, 4, and 5 count as the 4 required profitable days. Day 2 does not qualify because the profit is below 0.5%.

Trading Day	Minimum Profit	Qualifies?	Total Profitable Days
Day 1	0.5% ($50)	✅	1
Day 2	0.3% ($30)	❌	1
Day 3	0.5% ($50)	✅	2
Day 4	0.5% ($50)	✅	3
Day 5	0.5% ($50)	✅	4

Accounts must have at least one trading activity within every 30 days to remain active.

The 2-Step OMO has a maximum duration of 180 days across both evaluation phases combined. There is no separate deadline for each phase, so you can distribute your trading time as needed.

You must complete both phases within the 180 days while meeting all profit targets and risk rules to qualify for the Funded Stage.

Trades on the Simulated Funded Account must be held for at least 150 seconds (2.5 minutes). Profit from trades closed before 150 seconds is removed.

News trading is fully permitted during Phase 1 and Phase 2 with no restrictions.

In the Funded Stage, news trading is allowed, but profit from any single news event is capped at 0.50% of your account balance. Any profit above the cap will not count toward your balance.

Example: With a $10,000 Simulated Funded Account, the cap is 0.50% × $10,000 = $50. If a news event generates $70 in profit, only $50 will count toward your balance. The remaining $20 will be subject to a profit adjustment.

The M2 Account Saver monitors your current floating loss, calculated as Balance − Equity. It activates when this loss reaches 2% of your current account balance. It is not measured from your highest equity or from the start of the trading day.

Careful position sizing can help you avoid triggering the Account Saver.

Example: With a current balance of $10,000, the M2 Account Saver triggers when floating loss reaches $200 (2%).

Event	Account Status	Result
First breach	Drawdown reaches 2%	All open trades are closed. In the Funded Stage, reward split is reduced to 50%.
Second breach	Drawdown reaches 2% again	All open trades are closed, and the account is permanently deactivated.

Yes. The withdrawal cap is:

• First payout: Maximum of 6% of your initial account balance in profit before the reward split is applied.
• Second payout: Maximum of 8% of your initial account balance in profit before the reward split is applied.
• Third payout onward: No withdrawal cap.

The standard reward split is 80%. With the applicable add-on, the reward split increases to 90%.

After the first M2 Account Saver trigger, your reward split is permanently reduced to 50% for the remainder of the account.

The minimum withdrawal request is $20 in profit before the reward split is applied. The amount you receive is your applicable share of that profit.

Your first payout is available 10 business days after your first trade on the Simulated Funded Account. Each subsequent 10-business-day period starts with your first trade after the previous payout.

In the Buy Now Pay Later Challenge, traders must achieve a 4% profit target.

The Buy Now Pay Later Challenge has only one limit during the Evaluation Phase:

Maximum Drawdown: 10% (Static)

• Your maximum drawdown is 10% of the initial account balance and remains fixed.
• The drawdown limit does not increase when your account equity or balance grows.

Example: With a $10,000 account, your maximum drawdown is $1,000, so your equity must not fall below $9,000.

The Buy Now Pay Later Simulated Funded Account has two loss limits:

Daily Loss Limit: 4% (Equity-Based)

• The daily drawdown resets based on the higher of your equity or balance at 00:00 UTC.
• Your account must not exceed a 4% loss within a trading day.

Example: You have a $10,000 account, open a trade, and leave it running overnight. At 00:00 UTC, your equity is $10,300, while your balance is $10,000. Your maximum daily drawdown is 4% of $10,300 ($412). Your account will breach the daily drawdown if your equity falls below $9,888 that day.

Maximum Drawdown: 8% (Trailing)

• Your maximum drawdown moves up with your highest running equity, including unrealized profit from open trades.

Example: With a $10,000 Simulated Funded Account and an 8% trailing drawdown, your initial limit is $9,200. If your running equity reaches $11,000, the limit moves to $10,120. Falling below $10,120 breaches the drawdown limit.

Note: The trailing drawdown is based on running equity, not just closed trades.

Exceeding the limit will result in a breach of the Simulated Funded Account.

The M2 Account Saver applies only in the Funded Stage of the Buy Now Pay Later account. It does not apply during the Evaluation Phase.

The M2 Account Saver monitors your current floating loss, calculated as Balance − Equity. It activates when this loss reaches 2% of your current account balance. It is not measured from your highest equity or from the start of the trading day.

Careful position sizing can help you avoid triggering the Account Saver.

Example: With a current balance of $10,000, the M2 Account Saver triggers when floating loss reaches $200 (2%).

Event	Account Status	Result
First breach	Drawdown reaches 2%	All open trades are closed. In the Funded Stage, reward split is reduced to 50%.
Second breach	Drawdown reaches 2% again	All open trades are closed, and the account is permanently deactivated.

There is no Consistency Score requirement during the Evaluation Phase. In the Funded Phase, a 20% Consistency Score is required.

Your largest winning day must not exceed 20% of the sum of profits from your profitable days in the current payout cycle. Losing days are excluded and do not reduce this total for the consistency calculation. The calculation resets after each payout.

Trading Day	Daily Profit
Day 1	$100
Day 2	$150
Day 3	$200 ← Best Winning Day
Day 4	$150
Day 5	$150
Day 6	$150
Day 7	$100
Total Profit	$1000

Formula for the 20% consistency score

Consistency Score = (Best Winning Day ÷ Total Profit) × 100%

Consistency Score: $200 ÷ $1,000 × 100% = 20% ✅ Meets the consistency requirement

Your best winning day is $200, and your total profit is $1,000, so the Consistency Score is exactly 20%.

Note: If your Consistency Score is above 20%, you must continue trading until your score reaches 20% or below before requesting a payout.

The Simulated Funded Account uses 8% trailing maximum drawdown, including after a withdrawal. The limit follows your highest running equity, including unrealized profits. A withdrawal reduces your balance and the buffer above the trailing limit; it does not replace the trailing rule with a fixed floor at the original funded balance.

Example: $10,000 Simulated Funded Account

If your highest running equity is $10,500, the 8% trailing limit is $9,660. If a withdrawal reduces your balance by $300 to $10,200, the buffer above that limit is $540. The daily loss limit also continues to apply.

Accounts must have at least one trading activity within every 30 days to remain active.

News trading is fully permitted during the evaluation and funded phase with no restrictions.

The standard reward split is 80%. With the applicable add-on, the reward split increases to 90%.

The minimum withdrawal request is $20 in profit before the reward split is applied. The amount you receive is your applicable share of that profit.

Buy Now Pay Later Simulated Funded Accounts have no fixed payout waiting period. You may request a withdrawal once you meet the 20% Consistency Score and other payout requirements. Payment is processed after successful KYC verification.

The Instant Funding has two loss limits:

Daily Loss Limit: 2% (Equity-Based)

• The daily drawdown resets based on the higher of your equity or balance at 00:00 UTC.
• Your account must not exceed a 2% loss within a trading day.

Example: You have a $10,000 account, open a trade, and leave it running overnight. At 00:00 UTC, your equity is $10,300, while your balance is $10,000. Your maximum daily drawdown is 2% of $10,300 ($206). Your account will breach the daily drawdown if your equity falls below $10,094 that day.

Maximum Drawdown: 3% (Trailing)

• Your maximum drawdown moves up with your highest running equity, including unrealized profit from open trades.

Example: With a $10,000 simulated funded account and a 3% trailing drawdown, the initial drawdown limit is $9,700. If your running equity reaches $11,000, the trailing limit moves up to $10,670. Falling below $10,670 would breach the drawdown limit.

Note: The trailing drawdown is based on running equity, not just closed trades.

Exceeding the limit will result in a breach of the Simulated Funded Account.

The 1% Maximum Risk Rule is based only on your current floating loss relative to your current account balance. It is not a trailing drawdown rule and is not calculated from your highest floating profit or equity.

Formula: Floating Loss = Balance − Equity

Example: $10,000 Account

Balance	Equity	Floating Loss	Status
$10,000	$9,970	$30 (0.3%)	✅ No breach
$10,000	$9,900	$100 (1%)	⚠️ 1% threshold reached
$10,000	$9,899	$101 (1.01%)	❌ Breach

For a $10,000 account, the maximum permitted floating loss is $100.

You will be eligible for KYC verification once you request your first payout. You will receive a KYC verification email with instructions. Your payout is processed only after you have successfully completed KYC verification and met the applicable payout requirements.

Once you complete the KYC process, reply to the email to confirm that it has been completed.

In Instant Funding Account, a 20% Consistency Score is required.

Your largest winning day must not exceed 20% of the sum of profits from your profitable days in the current payout cycle. Losing days are excluded and do not reduce this total for the consistency calculation. The calculation resets after each payout.

Formula: Consistency Score = (Best Winning Day ÷ Total Profit) × 100%

Trading Day	Daily Profit
Day 1	$100
Day 2	$150
Day 3	$200 ← Best Winning Day
Day 4	$150
Day 5	$150
Day 6	$150
Day 7	$100
Total Profit	$1000

Consistency Score: $200 ÷ $1,000 × 100% = 20% ✅ Meets the consistency requirement

Your best trade day is $200, and your total profit is $1,000, so the Consistency Score is exactly 20%.

Note: If your Consistency Score is above 20%, you must continue trading until your score reaches 20% or below before requesting a payout.

Accounts must have at least one trading activity within every 30 days to remain active.

At least 50% of your trades must be held for at least 60 seconds (1 minute). Trades held for exactly 60 seconds qualify.

News trading is fully permitted with no restrictions.

The standard reward split is 80%. With the applicable add-on, the reward split increases to 90%.

You must earn at least 3% of your initial account balance in profit before the reward split is applied. This is a minimum profit threshold, rather than a minimum net payout amount.

Payouts for Instant Funding Accounts are available on demand. You may request a withdrawal once you meet the required 3% profit threshold and 20% Consistency Score or below.

You have 24 hours to trade on your Instant Mini Funding Account. The timer starts when you place your first trade.

You must meet the payout requirements and submit your withdrawal request within the 24-hour period.

Example: If you place your first trade at 2:00 PM on Monday, your 24-hour period ends at 2:00 PM on Tuesday. Your payout request must also be submitted within this 24-hour period.

Once the 24 hours have passed, no withdrawal request can be made.

The Instant Mini Funding has two loss limits:

Daily Loss Limit: 2% (Equity-Based)

• The daily drawdown resets based on the higher of your equity or balance at 00:00 UTC.
• Your account must not exceed a 2% loss within a trading day.

Example: You have a $10,000 account, open a trade, and leave it running overnight. At 00:00 UTC, your equity is $10,300, while your balance is $10,000. Your maximum daily drawdown is 2% of $10,300 ($206). Your account will breach the daily drawdown if your equity falls below $10,094 that day.

Maximum Drawdown: 3% (Trailing)

• Your maximum drawdown moves up with your highest running equity, including unrealized profit from open trades.

Example: With a $10,000 simulated funded account and a 3% trailing drawdown, the initial drawdown limit is $9,700. If your running equity reaches $11,000, the trailing limit moves up to $10,670. Falling below $10,670 would breach the drawdown limit.

Note: The trailing drawdown is based on running equity, not just closed trades.

Exceeding the limit will result in a breach of the Simulated Funded Account.

The 1% Maximum Risk Rule is based only on your current floating loss relative to your current account balance. It is not a trailing drawdown rule and is not calculated from your highest floating profit or equity.

Formula: Floating Loss = Balance − Equity

Example: $10,000 Account

Balance	Equity	Floating Loss	Status
$10,000	$9,970	$30 (0.3%)	✅ No breach
$10,000	$9,900	$100 (1%)	⚠️ 1% threshold reached
$10,000	$9,899	$101 (1.01%)	❌ Breach

For a $10,000 account, the maximum permitted floating loss is $100.

You will be eligible for KYC verification once you request your first payout. You will receive a KYC verification email with instructions. Your payout is processed only after you have successfully completed KYC verification and met the applicable payout requirements.

Once you complete the KYC process, reply to the email to confirm that it has been completed.

You can have only one open trade at a time in your Instant Mini Funding Account. Once the trade is closed, you can open another trade.

In the Instant Mini Funding Account, a 15% Consistency Score is required.

For a $10,000 Instant Mini Funding Account, your largest winning trade must not exceed 15% of your total profit during the 24-hour funding period.

Formula:

Consistency Score = (Best Winning Trade ÷ Total Profit) × 100%

Trade	Profit (USD)
Trade 1	$100
Trade 2	$100
Trade 3	$150
Trade 4	$200 ← Best Winning Trade
Trade 5	$100
Trade 6	$100
Trade 7	$100
Trade 8	$100
Trade 9	$100
Trade 10	$100
Trade 11	$100
Trade 12	$100
Total Profit	$1,350

Consistency Score = ($200 ÷ $1,350) × 100% = 14.81%.

This is below 15% and meets the consistency requirement.

Note: If your Consistency Score is above 15%, you must continue trading until your score reaches 15% or below before requesting a payout.

There is no Inactivity rule in an Instant Mini Funding Account

Trades on the Simulated Funded Account must be held for at least 150 seconds (2.5 minutes). Profit from trades closed before 150 seconds is removed.

News trading is fully permitted with no restrictions.

The standard reward split is 70%. With the applicable add-on, the reward split increases to 90%.

You must earn at least 3% of your initial account balance in profit before the reward split is applied. This is a minimum profit threshold, rather than a minimum net payout amount.

You are eligible to request only one withdrawal per Instant Mini Funding Account. This is a one-time payout, not a recurring withdrawal option.

To request the payout, you must achieve the 3% profit threshold and maintain a 15% Consistency Score or lower. The withdrawal request must be submitted within the 24-hour funding period.

Because prediction markets work differently from traditional trading instruments, this challenge also comes with a different rule structure. There are:

• No daily drawdown limits
• No minimum trading days

This gives traders more flexibility while still keeping the challenge structured and performance-based.

The main difference between the two challenge types is the drawdown model:

• One-Step Essential uses Trailing Drawdown with a 5% max loss in Phase 1 and 8% when funded
• One-Step Elite uses Static Drawdown with a 5% max loss in Phase 1 and 8% when funded

Aside from that, the trading parameters and available event contracts are the same across both challenge types.

The profit target for both challenge types is 9%. There is no profit target on the funded stage.

You can generate a maximum of 3% of your starting account balance from any one question. If you generate more than this, the remaining profits will be nulled.

The profit split is 70%. Once you reach the funded stage, you withdraw 70% of the profits you make. For example, if you profit $10,000, you will receive $7,000 into your wallet.

The standard Maven trading rules apply to the Prediction Markets challenge. This means:

• No reverse hedging
• No account mirroring
• No use of EAs or scripts

However, there is no news trading restriction specific to the Prediction Markets challenge. There is also no consistency rule.

The data feed comes from MatchTrade and follows the markets on Kalshi or Polymarket.

Prediction markets let you trade on the outcome of real-world events.

Examples include:

• Presidential election winner
• 2026 World Cup winner
• Top ranked AI model this year

Let’s say you choose to trade the Presidential Election Winner event event contract. If JD Vance is currently priced at 19%, one event contract would cost $0.19. If his odds later rise to 60%, that same event contract would now be worth $0.60.

That means:

• Entry price: $0.19
• New value: $0.60
• Profit per event contract: $0.41

So if you bought 1,000 event contracts, your total profit would be: 1,000 × $0.41 = $410.
