Zero means zero: no activation fee, no consistency rule, no buffer, no daily loss limit. Here is everything that applies to your Zero funded account.
1. Your risk limits
• EOD trailing drawdown: $2,000 (50K) / $3,000 (100K) / $4,500 (150K) — recalculates at end of day only
• Trade lock: once your EOD balance reaches $52,100 / $103,100 / $154,600, your drawdown locks permanently at $50,100 / $100,100 / $150,100 — it never moves again
• High-impact news: not allowed on Zero funded accounts — stay flat from 60 seconds before to 60 seconds after releases marked red on the ForexFactory calendar (3 stars on Investing.com), e.g. CPI or NFP. Profits from a trade held inside the window are removed; repeated violations can lead to account closure
• Overnight positions not allowed — open positions are automatically closed at market close
• Inactivity: 30 days without a trade closes the account
2. Your position size (scaling plan)
In the funded phase only, your maximum contract size scales with the simulated profit in your account. It updates at the end of each session — never in real-time during the day — and adjusts back down after a payout, since a payout reduces your balance. There is no scaling during the challenge phase.
Simulated Profits | 50K | 100K | 150K |
$0 – $999 | 2 / 20 | 3 / 30 | 4 / 40 |
$1,000 – $1,999 | 3 / 30 | 4 / 40 | 5 / 50 |
$2,000 – $2,999 | 4 / 40 (max) | 5 / 50 | 6 / 60 |
$3,000+ | — | 6 / 60 (max) | 8 / 80 (max) |
Values shown as mini / micro contracts. Micros count as 1/10th of a mini.
3. Your payouts
Two conditions, nothing else:
• Your drawdown is locked — your balance has reached $52,100 / $103,100 / $154,600, which freezes the floor permanently at $50,100 / $100,100 / $150,100
• You have 5 winning days at 0.2% of capital minimum ($100 / $200 / $300)
• From your second payout onwards: your balance must first climb back above the level it was at when you requested your previous payout. Each new payout requires fresh gains — you can't withdraw twice from the same profits
Both boxes ticked? Request your payout: 50% of your gains above the locked level ($50,100 / $100,100 / $150,100), up to $2,000 / $2,500 / $3,000 per payout, minimum $500, with a 90/10 split in your favor.
Example (50K): you request a payout with a balance of $54,100. After the payout is deducted, your balance drops — to request your next payout, it must first climb back above $54,100, on top of the two conditions above.
You can hold up to 6 funded accounts (all types combined). Consistent traders may be moved to a live account at any time, at the firm's discretion.
