What changes after I pass?
Updated October 2026 · 2 min read
A different stage, still simulated
The simulated funded stage remains a simulated trading account. Account size is not a deposit or a withdrawable balance. Your evaluation result demonstrates completion of that phase; it is not itself an eligible simulated funded reward.
Check the account and stage in the dashboard before trading. The absence of a simulated funded profit target does not remove daily or maximum loss limits. There is no consistency rule in this stage on any programme, just as there is none in evaluation.
Simulated funded rules by programme
| Programme | Daily / maximum loss | Qualifying days |

| 1-Step Standard | 4% / 7% trailing | 5 at 0.5% |
| 1-Step Pro | 3% / 6% trailing | 4 at 0.5% |
| 2-Step Standard | 5% / 10% static | 5 at 0.5% |
| 2-Step Pro | 5% / 8% static | 3 at 0.5% |
| 3-Step | 5% / 8% static | 5 at 0.5% |
| Instant | 3% / 6% trailing | 5 at 1% |
| Pay After Pass | 3% / 5% trailing | 4 at 1% |

Additional simulated funded conditions
- The 2% Equity Protector closes losing positions at its threshold. This is not itself a breach.
- Gains from trades opened or closed within 5 minutes before or after high-impact news may be removed.
- The standard first-reward clock starts with the first simulated funded trade: 14 calendar days, then a 14-day cycle.
- Identity verification is completed once, before the first reward; it is not required simply to buy or trade an evaluation.
Fees and reward eligibility
Pay After Pass also has the remaining programme payment after passing. At $100,000, the published split is $9.99 initially and $252.51 after passing, totalling $262.50 before add-ons. It is excluded from the sale discount.
The standard reward split is 80%. Minimum qualifying days, rule compliance, identity verification and correct payment details are checked for requests. Instant has no evaluation to pass: it starts at its own simulated funded stage, with its own limits and 30 seconds hold time.
