No evaluation and no profit goal: you start on a funded account the day you buy it. Trailing end-of-day drawdown, a daily loss limit that pauses trading for the day, and a 20% perpetual consistency rule. Withdrawals of $800 to $1,200 per cycle at a 90% share, and the account closes after your fifth withdrawal. No resets.

Live account

Most accounts here stay simulated for the account's whole life: the firm pays you out of its own revenue, and no real money ever changes hands in your trades. FundedNext is different — it also runs a real, live-capital account that some traders graduate into.

How you qualify

Earn 15 Performance Rewards (payouts) across the whole trader profile to enter the live review pool; a returning live trader only needs 5. Reaching 15 shortlists for review, not a guarantee -- risk team reviews full history. Transitions only happen once the payout cycle that triggered review has concluded.

What changes once you're live

One live account per eligible funded account (max 5), starting balance by size ($1,500-$4,500). MLL starts at $0 and trails, locking on first payout request or once profit equals starting balance -- with an "MLL Lock Benefit": the floor locks $1,000 BELOW starting balance, not at it. Contract limits double once the MLL locks. 100% split on the first $5,000 in cumulative live withdrawals, then 90/10. Daily withdrawals, $100 minimum, processed by NinjaTrader Brokerage (2-5 business days).

Worth knowing

Challenge accounts with any payout history close with no refund on transition; funded accounts with zero payouts close WITH a refund. Breaching costs a 2-week cooldown (4+ weeks if reckless).

About FundedNext

Four active challenge types, Legacy, Flex, Rapid Pro, and Rapid Daily, all one-time purchases with no recurring fees and no minimum trading days. Every account uses the same drawdown lock: once your balance climbs $100 above where you started, your floor stops moving for good.
