Challenge Rules & Objectives – Flex Challenge
The Flex Challenge consists of two evaluation phases followed by a funded account. The rules below apply to accounts opened from 24 August 2026.
1. Profit Targets
To advance through each phase:
Phase 1: 10% profit target.
Phase 2: 5% profit target.
There is no profit target on the funded account.
Account Size | $10K | $25K | $50K | $100K |
Phase 1 target (10%) | $1,000 | $2,500 | $5,000 | $10,000 |
Phase 2 target (5%) | $500 | $1,250 | $2,500 | $5,000 |
2. Challenge Duration
Each evaluation phase runs to a 30-day timeframe.
If the profit target is not reached within 30 days, the phase is failed.
A reset can be purchased to restart a failed phase. See Challenge Reset.
There is no time limit on the funded account.
3. Minimum Profitable Days
Each phase requires 5 profitable days.
A day counts as profitable only if it closes with a gain of at least 0.5% of the initial balance.
A day that gains less than 0.5% does not count towards the requirement, and does not count against you.
Example (on a $100,000 account): a day closing +$400 does not count, because 0.5% of $100,000 is $500. A day closing +$650 counts as one of your 5 profitable days.
4. Daily Drawdown
There is no daily drawdown during Phase 1 or Phase 2.
On the funded account, a daily drawdown of 2.5% of the initial balance applies.
The funded daily drawdown resets at 5 PM EST.
5. Maximum Overall Drawdown
Set at 5% of your initial balance, on every phase including funded.
This limit is static. It is fixed against the initial balance and does not trail your profits.
Breaching it fails the account.
Example: on a $100,000 account the maximum drawdown is $5,000, so your equity may never fall below $95,000. This floor stays at $95,000 whether your balance is $100,000 or $118,000.
6. Maximum Risk (Funded Accounts)
On a funded account, your combined floating loss may not exceed 0.5% of the initial balance at any one time.
Floating loss is the unrealised loss on your open positions. It is measured live, not at the close of a trade.
The limit applies to your open positions combined, so floating profit on one position offsets floating loss on another.
This rule applies only once funded. It does not apply during Phase 1 or Phase 2.
Example (on a $100,000 funded account): your floating loss limit is 0.5% = $500.
One position at -$420 unrealised: within the limit.
Two positions at -$300 and -$250: combined -$550, which breaches the limit.
Two positions at -$300 and +$200: combined -$100, which is within the limit.
In practice this means positions must be managed so that an open drawdown never reaches 0.5% of the initial balance. Because floating loss is capped this tightly, the 2.5% daily drawdown and the 5% static maximum are reached through accumulated realised losses across several trades rather than through one open position.
Account Size | $7.5K | $10K | $25K | $50K | $100K | $200K |
Max floating loss (0.5%) | $37.50 | $50 | $125 | $250 | $500 | $1,000 |
7. Consistency Rule (Funded Accounts)
A 20% consistency requirement applies on the funded account.
Your highest single trading day may not exceed 20% of your total profit when you request a payout.
Exceeding it does not fail the account. You continue trading until the distribution rebalances.
8. Payouts
Payouts are processed on a biweekly cycle, every two weeks.
Minimum payout: 2% of the initial balance.
Maximum payout: 5% of the initial balance per cycle.
Profit split: 80% to the trader.
