FundedHive Rules Explained (2026): Daily Loss, Drawdown, News & Payouts

Overview: Pay From Profits, 2-Step Classic and Tower

FundedHive sells three ways in. Pay From Profits is a low-cost evaluation, $19 to start a 1-Step (10% target) or $9 to start a 2-Step (8% then 6%), with a funded fee from $49 that some risk groups pay out of their first payout. The 2-Step Classic has the same 8% and 6% targets for a one-time fee of $15, $19 or $29 and no funded fee. Instant Growth, also called the Tower, starts at $10,000 and doubles the account each time you make 6%.

Sizes run from $5,000 to $200,000 ($2,000 to $200,000 on Classic). Every evaluation needs 3 profitable days. The page does not tie each fee to a size, so check the order form.

Because the rules depend on both the program and the risk group, write down your group, daily limit, max floor and per-trade cap before the first trade. The dashboard is the final word where the public page leaves a gap.

Pay From Profits funded accounts pay 80%. The Classic page says 70% on the funded account and also mentions up to 90% by account type, so confirm yours in the dashboard.

Rules that end the account

The numbers below are the standard (High risk group) limits. Pay From Profits buyers choose a risk group that changes them.

Daily loss

5%, balance-based and end of day. The reset time is not published.

Max loss

10%, balance-based and static, on both evaluations and funded accounts.

Loss per trade

3% maximum on any one trade.

Risk groups

Low: 1% per trade, 2% daily, 5% max, 1:200 leverage. Moderate: 1.5%, 3%, 6%, 1:100. Medium: 2%, 4%, 7%, 1:50. High: 3%, 5%, 10%, 1:30.

Tower

No daily limit, 6% overall max loss and 2% per trade. Level 1 runs on demo.

Payout rules

Split: 80% on Pay From Profits funded accounts; 70% stated for 2-Step Classic.
Funded fee from profits: Low and Moderate groups pay the funded fee entirely from the first payout, Medium pays half that way, and High pays it upfront.
Tower scaling fees come out of payouts: $299 at Level 1, $449 at Level 2, $899 at Level 3, $1,599 at Level 4 and $2,990 at Level 5, with none after that.
Timing: the payout schedule is not printed on the rules pages. The site describes payouts as processed in under 60 seconds through smart contracts. There is no consistency rule.

News and weekend

News trading is allowed on the evaluations and funded accounts.

Weekend holding is allowed during the challenge phases but not on funded accounts, so plan to be flat by the Friday close once funded. The Tower page does not state news or weekend rules.

Worked example: $50,000 2-Step Classic

Phase 1 asks $4,000 and Phase 2 $3,000, each over at least 3 profitable days. The max loss floor is $45,000. The daily limit is $2,500, and no single trade may lose more than $1,500.

Once funded, you must close positions before the weekend, and the split is 70% as stated on the Classic page.

The same $50,000 size bought through Pay From Profits in the Low risk group works very differently: the daily limit drops to $1,000, the max loss floor rises to $47,500 and no trade may lose more than $500, with 1:200 leverage. In exchange, the funded fee comes out of your first payout instead of your pocket. Pick the group that matches how you already size trades, not the one with the cheapest entry.

How Proof tracks it

Pick the FundedHive preset and your risk group. Proof keeps the end-of-day daily floor and the static max floor, checks each trade's loss against the per-trade cap, counts profitable days toward 3, and reminds you to be flat before the weekend on funded accounts. The drawdown calculator and payout date calculator work the same numbers by hand.

In Proof

Proof tracks every FundedHive rule for you

The FundedHive presets carry the end-of-day daily floor, the static max floor, the per-trade loss cap for your risk group and the funded-account weekend rule.
