Frequently asked questions

UltimateFunded is a proprietary trading program. You trade a simulated account under clear risk rules; once you pass the objectives (or choose Instant Funding) you receive a funded account and keep a share of the profits you make — up to 100%.

No. You need to be at least 18 years old and able to trade with proper risk management. You are responsible for your own taxes in your country of residence.

No. Your only cost is the challenge fee. If an account breaches a rule it is closed — you never owe more than the fee you paid.

We currently cannot accept traders from the United Arab Emirates, Pakistan, Vietnam, Iran, Myanmar, Albania and Kosovo, or from any jurisdiction where participation would breach local law. See restricted countries.

We currently offer 4 programs:

• Evaluation — a two-phase challenge.
• Turbo — one phase; pay a small fee upfront and the rest only after you pass.
• Fast Funding Standard — one phase, then funded.
• Instant Funding — no evaluation; start funded straight away.

Exact prices and objectives are on the Challenges page.

The Evaluation has two phases: pass Phase 1 and you receive a new account for Phase 2, which has a lower profit target. Fast Funding has a single phase — hit the target once and you move to a funded account.

You pay a small initial fee to start the Turbo challenge. The remaining activation fee is only charged after you pass, before your funded account is issued. The configurator shows both amounts for each account size.

No. Every phase has an unlimited trading period — you only need to meet the minimum number of trading days.

Unlimited. If you breach an account you can reset the same challenge from your dashboard at 10% off the regular price.

Card payments are processed immediately and your MetaTrader 5 credentials are created automatically. Crypto payments are confirmed once the network transaction clears. Credentials are emailed to you and shown in your dashboard.

It's a percentage of the balance at the start of the trading day, and it includes floating losses on open trades. If today's realised plus floating loss reaches the limit, the account is breached. The daily limit resets at server midnight.

It's a fixed percentage of your initial balance and does not trail. For example, with a 10% limit on a $100,000 account, equity must stay above $90,000 at all times. See each program's exact limit on the rules page.

Yes, weekend holding is allowed, including on funded accounts. Remember that forex, indices and commodities can gap at the weekly open — a gap that causes a breach is still a breach.

During the challenge, yes — though we recommend caution because of slippage. On funded accounts, trades must not be opened, closed or held from 5 minutes before to 5 minutes after high-impact news (e.g. central-bank rate decisions, CPI, NFP, GDP, unemployment). Profits from trades in that window are deducted from your payout.

Not during the challenge. On funded accounts, every trade must have a stop loss set within 30 seconds of opening.

Yes. Trades should stay open for at least 60 seconds. Very short trades are flagged by our risk engine, and profits from flagged scalping trades are deducted at payout.

Yes — EAs (including third-party), indicators, risk tools and copiers between your own accounts are allowed. Copying other traders, HFT, grid, martingale, latency/hedge arbitrage and cross-account hedging are prohibited. Full list.

Hedging within a single account is allowed. Hedging between multiple accounts — yours or someone else's — is not.

No lot size limits apply. You can trade any instrument available on the platform, including forex, indices and commodities.

Two additional rules: a single trade may not lose more than 2% of the day's starting balance, and at payout your best day may not exceed 30% of total net profit (consistency rule).

Accounts with no trading activity for 30 days are removed.

It depends on the payout cycle you choose at checkout: 100% on a monthly cycle, 80% bi-weekly (every 14 days) or 70% weekly (every 7 days).

Once one full payout cycle has passed since your first trade on the funded account and your plan's minimum trading days are complete. After each approved payout, the next becomes available one cycle later.

Your payout amount after the profit split must be more than $100.

Yes — profits from trades that broke the news rule or were flagged as scalping during the payout period are deducted before your split is applied.

We recommend trading from a consistent location. If you use a VPS or travel, let support know. Accounts linked by shared IPs or devices across different traders are reviewed by our risk engine.

KYC (Know Your Customer) is a one-time identity verification. It's mandatory before your funded account is delivered and is completed online from your dashboard.
