The 2-Step Evaluation

Updated 30 October 2026

The 2-Step Challenge has two evaluation phases before the funded stage.

Accounts bought from 15 October 2026 need 7 trading days and 5 profitable days in each stage. Accounts bought before that keep their original rules (3 trading days per phase, no profitable-day requirement).

Phase 1 — Evaluation

  • Profit Target: 10%
  • Daily Loss Limit: 8% Static
  • Maximum Drawdown: 12% Static
  • Drawdown Basis: Equity
  • Minimum Trading Days: 7
  • Profitable Days: 5 (each at least +1% of the account)

Phase 2 — Verification

  • Profit Target: 5%
  • Daily Loss Limit: 8% Static
  • Maximum Drawdown: 12% Static
  • Drawdown Basis: Equity
  • Minimum Trading Days: 7
  • Profitable Days: 5 (each at least +1% of the account), counted again from the start of Phase 2

Each phase passes only when its profit target, the 7 trading days and the 5 profitable days are all met.

Profitable day: a day your closed trades make at least 1% of the account size in net profit (after commission). On a $10,000 account that is $100 or more in one day.

Funded Stage

  • Withdrawal Target: 5%
  • Daily Loss Limit: 8% Static
  • Maximum Drawdown: 12% Static
  • Drawdown Basis: Equity
  • Before each payout: 7 trading days and 5 profitable days (each at least +1% of the account)
  • Profit Split: 80% for the first five approved payouts, then 90% from payout 6
  • Minimum Withdrawal: $50
  • Payout Schedule: Every other Saturday

Max Profit Per Trade: one trade counts toward at most 60% of the current target. If its open profit touches the cap, that trade's ENTIRE profit is removed at close, even if it closes lower, and noted on the trade in history. The account is never breached for profit, and the rule never reduces the payout split.
