Maximum Drawdown (detailed)
Your maximum drawdown is calculated at the end of each trading day, not intra-day. It trails upward as your account balance grows. Once the trailing drawdown level reaches your initial starting balance, it stops trailing permanently. This means your downside is capped at your starting balance once you have built enough profit.
After your first reward request on a funded account, the drawdown locks at the starting balance regardless of how much profit you have earned.
Drawdown by account size
Account Size | Drawdown Amount | Drawdown % |
$50K | $2,000 | 4% |
$100K | $3,000 | 3% |
$150K | $4,500 | 3% |
$200K | $6,000 | 3% |
Daily Pause / Daily Loss Limit
On the Beginner Challenge, there is no Daily Pause during the evaluation phase. On funded accounts (both types), a 2% daily loss limit applies.
If you reach the daily limit, trading is paused for the rest of the day. It does not breach or fail your account. You can resume trading the next day.
Consistency Rule
No single trading day can account for more than 40% of your total profit during the challenge, or 50% on a funded account. This applies to both Beginner and Mid-Level types.
The consistency rule ensures your profitability is spread across multiple days rather than dependent on one big session.
Weekend and Holiday Position Closure
All positions must be closed before the weekend market close (Friday 16:00 CT). Positions left open will be auto-flattened. This rule applies during both the challenge and funded phases. Holding through scheduled market holidays is also not permitted.
News Trading
Trading during major economic news releases is permitted on FunderPro Futures. There are no restrictions on entering or holding positions through news events.
Contract Limits
During the challenge, you can trade up to the full contract limit for your account size. On funded accounts, contract limits start lower and scale up as you earn profit. See the Beginner or Mid-Level challenge guides for the full scaling tables.
What causes a breach?
Exceeding the maximum drawdown level
Holding positions over the weekend
Violating the consistency rule at the time of passing the profit target
The Daily Pause does not cause a breach. It pauses trading for the day only.
