Additional Rules

2-Step Evaluation: Phase 1 (Challenge) has a 10% profit target ($5,000). Phase 2 (Verification) has a 5% profit target ($2,500).

Maximum Overall Loss: $5,000 (10%). This is a static limit based on the initial $50,000 balance, meaning your account floor is $45,000.

Maximum Daily Loss: $2,500 (5%). This is calculated daily based on the starting equity/balance at midnight CE(S)T.

Minimum Trading Days: Only 4 trading days are required for Phase 1 and 4 days for Phase 2.

No Time Limit: There is no deadline to complete either phase. You can trade as conservatively as you want.

Refundable Fee: The fee (approx. €345) is fully refunded with your first profit split once you reach the FTMO Trader (funded) stage.

Account Flexibility: You can choose between "Normal" (1:100 leverage) or "Swing" (1:30 leverage, allows news trading and holding trades over the weekend).

Scaling Plan

The $50,000 FTMO account is eligible for the institutional Scaling Plan, where the balance increases by 25% every 4 months of consistent performance.

To qualify for a capital bump, the trader must achieve at least 10% net profit over a 4-month period (average 2.5% per month).

Upon the first scaling, your $50,000 account becomes a $62,500 account, and your profit split is permanently increased to 90%.

The plan allows for continuous growth, increasing your absolute dollar-risk capacity as you manage more capital.
