Additional Rules

Two-phase evaluation: On a $10,000 account, traders must generate $1,000 in Phase 1 and $500 in Phase 2 in closed profits while respecting all risk rules throughout each phase.
Minimum profitable days: At least 3 profitable trading days required in each phase and per payout cycle in funded stage. Minimum profit of 0.5% ($50) per qualifying day.
Daily loss limit of 5% static: On a $10,000 account, the maximum daily loss is $500.
Maximum drawdown of 10% static: The absolute floor is $9,000 on a $10,000 account. Both limits are static and do not adjust with equity growth.
No time limit: Traders can take as long as needed to complete both phases.
Leverage: 1:50 Forex, 1:15 Metals/Energies, 1:10 Indices, 1:2 Crypto.
Profit split: 80% default, 90% add-on available.
Payout frequency: Bi-weekly, minimum $100 withdrawal.
News trading: Permitted in challenge phases. In funded stage, trades within ±2 minutes of high-impact events have profits removed, no breach triggered.
EAs, scalping, swing and intraday trading permitted. HFT, arbitrage, tick scalping, and all-in sizing prohibited. Copy trading only between own Atmos accounts.
Weekend and overnight holding permitted.
No consistency rule in funded stage.
Inactivity rule: 90 days of no trading results in automatic account closure.
1:1 ratio in Phase 1: With a $1,000 target and $1,000 total drawdown, a trader who suffers early losses may find themselves unable to recover to the target before the floor is breached.
Phase 2 trap after strong Phase 1: Traders who pass Phase 1 aggressively often increase risk in Phase 2, unaware that the 5% target still requires disciplined management within the same shared 10% drawdown buffer.

Scaling Plan

Performance-based account growth: Traders who demonstrate consistent performance can increase their account allocation by 25% every four months, allowing progressive access to larger capital without a new challenge requirement.
VIP rewards program: After 4 months of funded trading and 4 successful withdrawals with an average monthly profit of at least 4%, traders unlock a free challenge replacement, a higher capital allocation, and a 90% profit split.
Maximum capital allocation: Through performance-based growth, traders can reach a maximum total allocation of $400,000 across their Atmos Funded accounts.
Consistent rules throughout growth: The daily drawdown limit, maximum loss limit, and all trading rules remain unchanged as the account grows. Only the dollar amounts increase proportionally with the new balance.
Profit split progression: The default 80% split increases to 90% through the VIP rewards program after sustained consistent monthly profitability.
