What the rules mean in practice
- To pass, grow the $100K account by $6,000 (6%) without breaking a loss limit.
- There is no daily loss limit, so a bad day only fails the account if it breaks the overall max loss.
- The account fails if you lose $3,500 (3.5%). This is end-of-day trailing drawdown: the loss limit moves up once a day, based on your end-of-day balance, and ignores swings during the session.
- Consistency rule: Evaluation only: best day may not exceed 40% of total profit; no consistency rule on the Sim-Funded Account
- At a 90% split, you need about 0.19% return on the funded account to earn back the $169 fee for one month.
- Payouts: every 4 days, after 4 qualifying days in the cycle with at least $150 / $250 / $300 of profit each (50K / 100K / 150K).
- Dollar rules: profit target $3,000 / $6,000 / $9,000 and maximum drawdown $2,000 / $3,500 / $5,000.
- The drawdown limit is reset each day from the highest closing balance and can only rise; equity may not touch it at any time, and it locks permanently at the starting balance.
- No daily loss limit in the Evaluation. The Sim-Funded Account has a soft daily limit of $1,000 / $2,000 / $3,000 that closes positions and stops trading for the rest of the day without ending the account.
- Each request can take up to 50% of profit above the starting balance, capped at $2,500 / $3,000 / $4,000.
- The Evaluation contract limit applies from the start; on the Sim-Funded Account it begins at 2 / 4 / 6 contracts and scales up with end-of-day profit.
- The subscription is billed monthly until the Evaluation is passed, then cancelled automatically. Resets cost $109 / $159 / $219 and do not change the billing date.
- No activation fee. FTMO's pages state the Reset Fee is non-refundable but do not state a refund policy for the subscription itself.
