What the rules mean in practice

  • To pass, grow the $25K account by $1,250 (5%) without breaking a loss limit.
  • On any single day you can lose up to $750 (3%). Check FXIFY'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 $1,000 (4%). This is balance trailing drawdown: the loss limit rises with your closed balance as you make profit, so it follows your gains.
  • Consistency rule: Best day must be no more than 30% of total profit, in the challenge and on the funded account
  • At a 80% split, you need about 0.75% return on the funded account to earn back the $149 fee.
  • Payouts: the first 7 days after the first funded trade, then every 14 days, subject to the 30% consistency rule.
  • Missing the 5% target within the time limit, or reaching it without meeting the consistency rule, fails the challenge.
  • A stop-loss is required: the first two trades without one are closed, and the third is a hard breach. A no-stop-loss add-on costs 5% of the fee; the 90% split add-on costs 20%.
  • The 4% maximum loss trails the highest closed balance until 4% profit, then locks at the starting balance.
  • MT5 with the RAW feed only. No EAs, no copy trading, no scaling, and only one active Lightning account at a time.
