Additional Rules

Two-phase evaluation: Traders must reach an 8% profit target ($2,000) in Phase 1 and a 4% target ($1,000) in Phase 2.
Static max drawdown: A 8% maximum loss limit ($2,000) is applied. This is balance-based and static, meaning the floor stays at $23,000 regardless of profits.
Daily loss limit: A 4% daily loss limit ($1,000) is enforced, reset every day based on the starting balance or equity, whichever is higher.
Minimum trading days: A minimum of 5 trading days is required for each phase to demonstrate consistency.
Unlimited trading period: There is no time limit to reach the profit targets, eliminating "calendar pressure."
Leverage: Standard 1:100 leverage is provided across both phases.
Profit split: Initial 70% payout, which increases to 80% and then 90% based on your trading performance and scaling.
Trading flexibility: News trading is allowed, but weekend holding is NOT permitted on the Stellar Lite model.
Weekend Restriction: Since weekend holding is forbidden, all positions must be closed by Friday market close, which limits long-term swing trading strategies.
Drawdown Tightness: The 8% total drawdown ($2,000) is more restrictive than the 10% standard in other models, requiring tighter risk management.
Phase 2 Ease: The Phase 2 target is only 4%, making the second step significantly easier once the initial 8% hurdle is cleared.
News Profit Rule: Once funded, a "News Profit Split Rule" may apply where profits from trades opened/closed during high-impact news are adjusted (typically 40% counted).
Payout Cycle: The Lite model requires a 21-day wait for the first payout after becoming funded, with subsequent payouts every 14 days.
Balance-Based Stability: The static drawdown floor is a major benefit, as it doesn't move up with your balance like trailing drawdown models.

Scaling Plan

The $25,000 Stellar Lite account is eligible for the FundedNext Pro scaling program, which increases your account balance by 40% every 4 months.
To qualify, a trader must achieve a cumulative growth of at least 10% over four consecutive months and receive at least two payouts within that period.
Upon reaching the milestone, your balance scales from $25,000 to $35,000, and your profit split can be upgraded up to 90%.
Consistent performance allows for continuous scaling up to a maximum of $4 million in total managed capital.
