Atmos Funded
Atmos Funded launched in 2024 and already has a community sentiment trend that looks like a heartbeat monitor on a bad day. The rulebook is detailed — a 2-minute news window that voids profits, 85% margin cap, 7 profitable days required before payout on Nova 1-Step. "Trader-friendly" is on the homepage. The trading conditions page tells a different story.

Who Is This Firm For?
About Atmos Funded
Then you open the trading conditions. A 2-minute news window that voids profits — including trades you opened before the news event. 85% margin cap per asset. 7 profitable days required at 0.5% each before payout on Nova 1-Step funded accounts. 50% of trades must be held over 2 minutes, which rules out anything resembling fast execution. Crypto weekend holding? Not allowed — despite general weekend holding being permitted everywhere else.
The community sentiment trend is Mixed and declining. "Half the things work as advertised, the other half are hit or miss" is how one verified trader summarized it. For a firm launched in 2024, that's not a catastrophic verdict — but it's not a clean one either. Read the full trading conditions before you decide the homepage told you everything you needed to know.

A mixed bag so far
Half the things work as advertised, the other half are hit or miss. The firm is responsive on Twitter but slower through their official channels. I would describe my overall verdict as decent, not great.— Verified Trader (tyler farah) See all reviews
The 2-minute news window on funded accounts voids profits — including on trades you opened before the event that close during the window. Keep at least 50% of your trades open for more than 2 minutes or the trade duration rule will flag your account. On Nova 1-Step funded, the 1% max risk per symbol per day includes both floating and closed P&L combined — not just open positions. Crypto on weekends is not allowed even though general weekend holding is permitted.

Profit targets were realistic
Coming off a few good months of retail trading, I wanted leverage. Disputes I have raised were handled in a fair and timely manner. For the price, the value you get is hard to beat.
Glad I switched here
Tried the challenge three times before passing, so I know it well. News trading is allowed with reasonable restrictions around major releases. Strong recommendation from me based on months of real use.
Payout declined on a technicality
Felt the urge to write this after my third support ticket went unanswered. Email replies are vague, canned, and rarely address the actual question. Currently trying to recover what I can from them before walking away.
I keep switching between positive and negative
Not the best firm I have tried, but also far from the worst. The company has grown quickly and support has not kept pace with that growth. On balance, a pass grade. Nothing higher.
Disappointed after reading great reviews
Based on their marketing I expected a lot more than I got. Slippage on the funded account is far worse than on the demo. For me, this was a clear lesson in ignoring flashy marketing.
Best prop firm I have tried
I started with a small account and have scaled up twice since. Educational content on their site is genuinely useful, not just marketing fluff. Keep doing what you are doing, team.
Competent but unremarkable
Started with them two quarters ago. Mixed bag since. Leverage settings are flexible but not consistent across asset classes. Would keep my account here unless a clearly better option appeared.
Exceeded my expectations
Decided to try them after their founder did a podcast interview. Their bot-detection does not flag legitimate EA users like it does elsewhere. Happy to keep trading here and would sign up again if I had to.
Renewed my challenge confidently
Switched here after a couple of disappointing experiences elsewhere. Disputes I have raised were handled in a fair and timely manner. Five stars from me, with no significant reservations.
Affiliate program pays on time
Was looking for a firm that supported my specific trading style. Their refund policy on challenge fees when you get funded is a nice touch. My default answer when people ask which prop firm to try.
