The general rules cap risk at 1% of the initial balance per trade idea, including spread, commission and slippage.
Stop loss

Timing

Payout rules

  • Cycle: weekly on 1-Step Classic, 2-Step Pro and both instant accounts; every two weeks on 2-Step Classic and Pay After You Pass. Requests are processed within 24 hours.
  • Minimum: $150, with no profit cap. Instant Classic needs at least 6 trading days and Instant Pro 3 before a request.
  • Best day: program pages say there is no consistency rule, but the general rules require total profit of at least 4 times your best day before a payout unlocks. Plan for the stricter one until the dashboard says otherwise.
  • Refund: the fee is refundable after 2 successful payouts. The account grows every 3 payouts, up to $6,000,000 on the growth plan.

News and weekend

News trading is allowed. From 5 minutes before to 5 minutes after a high-impact release you may not open, close or modify trades; positions opened earlier can stay open.

Overnight and weekend holding is allowed on every plan listed here.

Worked example: $50,000 2-Step Classic

Step 1 asks $4,000 and Step 2 $2,500. The max loss floor is $46,000 for good. If yesterday ended at a $51,000 balance, today's daily floor is $48,960 (4% of $51,000 is $2,040). The 1% per-idea cap means no more than $500 at risk across trades that make up one idea.

Once funded at 80%, a $1,000 best day means you need $4,000 of total profit before a request, and the minimum payout is $150.

How Proof tracks it

Pick the FundYourFX preset. Proof sets the 22:00 UTC reset in your local time, the end-of-day balance daily floor and the static max floor, checks risk per idea against 1%, flags a missing stop after 3 minutes, a third stacked trade, holds under 60 seconds and the 5-minute news windows, and tracks your best day against a quarter of total profit. The drawdown calculator and payout date calculator work the same numbers by hand.
