If your Professional Stage account is closed after reaching the maximum drawdown, it does not necessarily mean the end of your journey with Funded Futures Family. In certain cases, traders may have the opportunity to return to the program following the applicable risk management policies.
Here’s what happens next:
60-Day Cooldown Period
If a Professional Stage account is closed due to reaching the maximum drawdown, a cooldown period may be applied in certain cases. This measure is not automatic and applies only to traders who were previously notified by the Risk Management Team. When enforced, the cooldown period is typically up to 60 trading days (weekends do not count).
During the 60-day cooldown:
All previously existing Simulated Funded accounts will remain closed and cannot be accessed or traded during the cooldown period.
No trading activity of any kind is permitted on the FFF platform.
You may not purchase or activate new accounts until the cooldown period has fully ended.
This policy ensures proper risk management and provides traders time to reset before returning to the SIM environment.
Resume Trading After Cooldown
Once the 60-day cooldown period has been completed:
You may begin fresh by purchasing new Evaluation or Simulated Funded accounts.
All new SIM-funded accounts will begin under standard rules, starting from Payout Stage 1.
This structure ensures that traders re-enter the program on equal footing and with a clean slate.
Important Notes
When a trader transitions into the Professional Stage, all active Simulated Funded accounts are permanently closed.
After the cooldown, traders may purchase new accounts and restart their progression from Payout Stage 1 within the SIM-funded environment.
No SIM or Evaluation trading is permitted during the cooldown period.
