What the rules mean in practice

  • There are 2 phases. Phase 1 needs $400 profit (8%); Phase 2 needs $250 profit (5%). The loss limits apply in every phase.
  • On any single day you can lose up to $250 (5%). Check AquaFunded's rules for whether that is measured from the day's starting balance or equity, because open trades count.
  • The account fails if you lose $400 (8%). This is static drawdown: the loss limit is fixed at a set distance below your starting balance and never moves.
  • Consistency rule: None
  • At a 90% split, you need about 0.67% return on the funded account to earn back the $30.15 fee.
  • Payouts: every 14 days (every 7 days with a paid add-on)
  • Daily loss is 5% of the higher of the previous day's closing balance or equity, reset at 00:00 UTC.
  • WaveStop applies on the funded account.
