<item><title>Why do most prop firm accounts fail? What 180,000 trades show</title><link>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/why-prop-firm-accounts-fail/</link><guid>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/why-prop-firm-accounts-fail/</guid><pubDate>Sat, 07 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT</pubDate><description>In FundedCobra's data on about 180,000 closed trades (May to October 2026), most accounts ended on a loss limit, and they ended early. 47% of accounts that breached did so within 24 hours of their first trade. On one account type, the open-loss, overall and daily loss limits caused 29%, 27% and 23% of breaches. A trader's early results did not predict their later ones.</description></item>
<item><title>Is FundedCobra legit? How to check it yourself before you pay</title><link>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/is-fundedcobra-legit/</link><guid>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/is-fundedcobra-legit/</guid><pubDate>Sat, 07 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT</pubDate><description>FundedCobra is run by FUNDEDCOBRA LTD, registered in England and Wales (company no. 17464334). It sells simulated trading accounts, is not a broker, and pays rewards from its own funds in USDT, with on-chain payouts linked to Tronscan. You can test it free first with a view-only login or a 3-day $5,000 demo. Most accounts end by breaching a rule, so read the rules before you buy.</description></item>
<item><title>Is there a prop firm with no minimum holding time for scalpers?</title><link>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/prop-firm-no-minimum-holding-time/</link><guid>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/prop-firm-no-minimum-holding-time/</guid><pubDate>Sat, 07 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT</pubDate><description>Yes. FundedCobra's King Cobra is a simulated instant account from $500 to $50,000 with no minimum holding time, so a trade closed after a few seconds keeps its profit. News trading and weekend holding are allowed and there is no end date. A 4% fixed daily loss, a 10% fixed max loss, a 1% limit on any one trade and a 3% Max Profit Per Trade cap still apply.</description></item>
<item><title>Fixed vs trailing daily drawdown: what is the difference?</title><link>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/fixed-vs-trailing-daily-drawdown/</link><guid>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/fixed-vs-trailing-daily-drawdown/</guid><pubDate>Sat, 07 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT</pubDate><description>A fixed daily drawdown sets your floor once at the daily reset and keeps it there all day. A trailing daily drawdown follows your highest equity of the day upward, so profit you give back can end the account. On a $5,000 King Cobra account the fixed floor is $4,800 for the day. On a $5,000 Venom 2.0 account the trailing floor starts at $4,850 and rises with every new high.</description></item>
<item><title>Max risk per trade 1%: what counts, what happens, and how to size your trades</title><link>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/max-risk-per-trade-1-percent/</link><guid>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/max-risk-per-trade-1-percent/</guid><pubDate>Sat, 07 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT</pubDate><description>On King Cobra and Venom 2.0, one trade may not lose 1% of your starting balance, counting its open loss plus commission. On a $5,000 account that is $50. The first time a trade reaches it, that trade closes and your profit split drops to 30% for good. The second time, the account ends. A stop loss sized well inside 1% keeps the rule from ever touching you.</description></item>
<item><title>Instant funding vs challenge: which prop firm account is right for you?</title><link>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/instant-funding-vs-challenge/</link><guid>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/instant-funding-vs-challenge/</guid><pubDate>Sat, 07 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT</pubDate><description>An instant funded account has no test: you can request a payout on the same account once you meet its payout rules. A challenge account makes you pass one or two tests first. The label matters less than the profit target. In FundedCobra's data on the same traders, a +5% target was reached by 17% of accounts, +8% by 7% and +10% by 3.4%. FundedCobra now sells instant accounts only.</description></item>
<item><title>Using a prop firm from India or Pakistan: UPI payment and USDT payouts</title><link>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/prop-firm-india-upi-usdt/</link><guid>https://fundedcobra.com/blog/prop-firm-india-upi-usdt/</guid><pubDate>Sat, 07 Nov 2026 09:00:00 GMT</pubDate><description>At FundedCobra, traders in India pay in rupees by UPI, PhonePe, Paytm or UPI QR. Traders in Pakistan pay by JazzCash or Raast, and USDT works in every country. Prices are in US dollars, from $10 for a $500 King Cobra with the code KING40. Payouts are paid in USDT on the TRON (TRC-20) network, usually within 24 to 48 hours, with a $10 minimum. All accounts are simulated.</description></item>
