Funded Futures Family is pleased to announce the official launch of our Live Funded Accounts Program, an advanced opportunity for traders who have consistently demonstrated discipline, profitability, and sound risk management in our Simulated Funded environment. This initiative provides qualified traders with access to real capital in live markets, along with professional oversight from our in-house Risk Team.
Eligibility Criteria for Live Funding
To qualify for a Live Funded Account, traders must meet the following criteria on a single Simulated Funded Account:
Completion of a minimum of three successful payouts per sim funded account
At least $10,000 in total approved payouts per sim funded account
Demonstrated consistency in trading execution and performance
Verified ability to manage risk effectively under real market conditions
Upon meeting these requirements, the trader’s performance is reviewed by our Risk Team. If approved, the trader will receive a customized Live Account offer and an invitation to onboard with our Live Desk.
Core Features of the Live Funded Account
The Live Funded Program mirrors the structure and expectations of a professional trading desk. It is designed to ensure a seamless and scalable transition from simulation to live capital trading. Key features include:
Feature | Description |
Access to Real Capital | Traders operate in real markets with live order fills and actual liquidity. |
Daily Payout Requests | Once the profit target is met, traders may request payouts on a daily basis. |
No Earning Caps | There are no payout caps in live trading—profits can scale without limitation. |
Multi-Account Functionality | Traders may manage up to four Live Accounts simultaneously through synchronized or individual strategies. |
Personalized Risk Oversight | Direct engagement with Risk Managers to align risk parameters with trading performance. |
Transition Process: From Simulated to Live
Once approved, the trader’s Simulated Funded Account will be closed and transitioned into a Live Funded Account. Account tiers and corresponding drawdown limits are as follows:
Live Account Size | Drawdown Limit |
$50,000 | $2,000 |
$100,000 | $3,000 |
$150,000 | $4,500 |
$250,000 | $6,000 |
Each account provides the full buying power of the starting balance. Drawdown thresholds are enforced to safeguard both trader and firm capital.
Note: Traders cannot maintain both Simulated and Live Funded Accounts concurrently.
Live Account Payout Policy
Withdrawal Eligibility
Withdrawals are permitted once the account balance exceeds the initial drawdown level:
Account Tier | Minimum Withdrawal Threshold |
$50,000 | $52,000 |
$100,000 | $103,000 |
$150,000 | $154,500 |
$250,000 | $256,000 |
Profit Split Structure
Traders retain 80% of all profits exceeding the account’s drawdown threshold.
The firm retains 20% as part of the performance-based profit split model.
Consistency Requirement
The first $5,000 in withdrawals is subject to a 40% daily consistency rule, requiring traders to maintain balanced profit distribution.
This rule is removed after surpassing $5,000 in total withdrawals from the Live Account.
