Additional Rules
Max Risk Per Trade: 1.5% once the account is funded. Consistency: None. Note: Single evaluation phase for faster funding.
The important “additional” rules are mostly tied to how the drawdown works:
Daily drawdown uses the higher of balance or equity
This means floating profit counts. If you’re in profit overnight or at rollover, your loss limit for the next day adjusts upward from that higher equity value.
Example:
Start day at $100k
Floating profit pushes equity to $102k
Your daily loss floor becomes $99k, not $97k
The 6% max drawdown is trailing in real time
This is the biggest rule traders underestimate.
The max loss follows your highest equity reached, including floating PnL intraday. If you hit a new equity high, the trailing floor moves immediately.
Example:
Start: $100k → drawdown floor = $94k
Equity hits $104k → floor rises to $98k
If trade reverses and balance falls below $98k, account breached
The trailing drawdown locks once account reaches +6%
After equity reaches 106% of starting balance:
the trailing stop freezes at the original balance
it no longer trails upward
On a $100k account:
Hit $106k equity
Drawdown locks at $100k permanently
That’s actually the “safe zone” most traders try to reach quickly.
Floating profit can also cause a violation
A trade that temporarily pushes equity higher can tighten your drawdown, even if the trade later closes negative. BrightFunded explicitly warns about this scenario.
Minimum 5 trading days
A trading day counts if:
at least one trade stays open for 60 seconds or more
No consistency rule (currently)
BrightFunded does not appear to enforce a formal consistency percentage rule like some other prop firms. Community discussions repeatedly mention this
