What is a funded trading account?

A funded trading account gives you access to a prop firm's capital. Instead of trading your own savings, you trade the firm's money under a defined set of risk rules and keep a share of the profits you generate.

The model works in two stages. First, you pass a paid evaluation challenge: a simulated trading period where you must hit a profit target while staying within drawdown limits. Once you pass, the firm gives you a funded account. From that point on, your profits are real and paid out on a regular schedule.

Your personal risk is limited to the challenge fee. If you breach the rules on a funded account, you lose access to that account. You do not owe the firm anything beyond the initial fee.

Funded account rules

Static drawdown

Your drawdown floor is fixed from day one. It never moves up as your account grows, unlike trailing drawdown which chases your equity.

No consistency rule

Your best trading day counts in full. No cap on how much a single session can contribute to your evaluation profit.

News trading allowed

Hold positions through FOMC, NFP, CPI and any other scheduled event. No news window restrictions at evaluation or funded stage.

Weekend holding

No forced position close on Fridays. Crypto positions run 24/7. Forex and other instruments can also be held across the weekend.

5 qualifying days minimum

The minimum qualifying days are 5 per phase. Each qualifying day must close with a net profit of at least 0.8% of the initial account balance.

Multi-asset, one account

Crypto, forex, stocks, indices and commodities, all on a single funded trading account. One evaluation. No market restrictions.

What you can trade

Your funded trading account covers five asset classes on a single DXtrade account.

Funded trading account FAQ

What is a funded trading account?

A funded trading account is an account where the capital belongs to a prop firm, not to you. You pass a paid evaluation challenge, prove you can manage risk, and the firm allocates you a live funded account. You trade the firm's capital and keep a share of the profits, typically 80% to 90%. Your personal financial exposure is limited to the evaluation fee.
