Additional Rules

No evaluation phase: Immediate funded Master account access from day one.
No profit target: Only obligations are the trailing daily drawdown, trailing maximum drawdown, safety cushion, and Zero-specific trading rules.
Trailing daily loss limit of 3%: On a $50,000 account, the daily limit starts at $1,500.
Trailing maximum drawdown of 5%: Starting buffer is $2,500 on a $50,000 account.
Safety cushion requirement: Account must be at least 3% above the trailing floor before a payout can be requested ($1,500 safety margin above trailing floor on a $50,000 account).
Minimum 7 profitable trading days per 30 days. Fixed bi-weekly payout at 95%.
15% consistency rule: No single day may generate more than 15% of total profits in the current payout cycle.
No news trading within ±10 minutes of high-impact events. No weekend holding. Leverage 1:50 Forex. Inactivity rule: 30 days.
95% split vs evaluation alternatives at $50,000: On a $50,000 account generating $2,000 per month, Zero's 95% ($1,900) versus Standard Monthly 100% ($2,000) is a $100/month difference — minimal. But Zero's trailing drawdown, 15% consistency rule, no news trading, and no weekend holding create far more operational constraints. For traders without all-in-day P&L concentration, consistent small-win daily strategies are the only viable fit.
Safety cushion requirement creates a two-layer payout condition: On a $50,000 account, a trader must both avoid the 5% trailing floor AND maintain a 3% ($1,500) profit buffer above it before requesting a payout. This dual condition means the effective minimum account value for payout eligibility is 3% above the trailing floor rather than simply above it.

Scaling Plan

Tiered capital growth through performance: FundingPips operates a four-tier scaling program — Launchpad, Ascender, Trailblazer, and Hot Seat — progressively increasing capital, drawdown allowances, and profit splits.
Launchpad scale-up: A 10% funded account profit triggers a 20% balance increase and expanded drawdown allowance.
Ascending tiers unlock further capital: Consistent traders progress through Ascender and Trailblazer tiers toward Hot Seat.
Hot Seat — the elite tier: 100% profit split, on-demand payouts with no consistency rule, capital up to $2,000,000.
Scaling based on original account size. Risk parameters unchanged throughout scaling.
No fee refund on Zero: The instant funding fee is not refunded regardless of funded performance.
