EUR list price from thegodfunded.com (third-party, read 7 Nov 2026): FTMO's checkout loads prices dynamically, so it is not confirmed on ftmo.com. Fee refund with the first Reward: not verified. Whether the daily and overall loss limits are checked on equity (open P&L) or balance: not stated in the extract. The cycle after the first Reward is inferred from the per-account 14-day rule plus 'a new FTMO Account is provided' after a Reward; no explicit 'every N days' wording found. Standard vs Swing price and leverage differences not verified.

Rules

CFDs (FX, indices, commodities, crypto and stock CFDs). Two phases: FTMO Challenge 10% target, Verification 5%, each at least 4 Trading Days, no time limit. Max Daily Loss 5% of initial (limit = balance at 00:00 CE(S)T minus 5%); Max Loss 10% static. FTMO Account: no target or minimum days; a Reward can be requested 'on the 14th or any following day after the first trade' on that account; all positions and orders closed first; 80% ratio (90% via the Scaling Plan or Premium Programme); 2-Step Rewards can be rolled into the next account (100% when later withdrawn). Account types Standard and Swing: on the FTMO Account, Standard has a 2-minute news execution block and no holding through market breaks over 2 hours; Swing has neither. Prices are EUR fees for USD accounts (other account currencies exist, not covered). Fee refund not verified.

Watch out

Standard type: no orders 2 minutes either side of selected news and no weekend holding; the Swing type lifts both. Third-party EAs risk denial of the FTMO Account. Total allocation capped at $400,000 per trader.

  • 100K: EUR list price from thegodfunded.com (third-party, read 7 Nov 2026): FTMO's checkout loads prices dynamically, so it is not confirmed on ftmo.com. Fee refund with the first Reward: not verified. Whether the daily and overall loss limits are checked on equity (open P&L) or balance: not stated on the pages read. The cycle after the first Reward is inferred from the per-account 14-day rule plus 'a new FTMO Account is provided' after a Reward; no explicit 'every N days' wording found. Standard vs Swing price and leverage differences not verified. A '20% Off Special deal on $100K 1-Step Challenge' (would be EUR 399) appeared in the search-index titles of official ftmo.com pages but not in the page text on 7 Nov 2026, so price is left at list. Launch date (given earlier as January 2026) not re-checked.

Rules

Single phase, 10% target, no minimum trading days, no time limit. Max Daily Loss 3% of initial: the balance at 00:00 CE(S)T minus 3%. Max Loss 10% end-of-day trailing: the limit is the higher of the highest 00:00 CE(S)T balance and the initial balance, minus 10% of initial; it only rises, and resets to 90% of initial when a Reward is withdrawn and a new FTMO Account is provided. Consistency (orders from 12 Oct 2026): Best Day at most 50% of total profit, both to pass and to be eligible for a Reward; exceeding is not a breach (keep trading). Legacy accounts: at most 50% of Positive Days' Profit. 90% Reward ratio; Reward on the 14th or a later day after the first trade on that account. Scaling Plan applies. A '20% off $100K 1-Step' special deal was seen in search-engine titles of ftmo.com pages but not on the pages themselves on 7 Nov 2026.

Watch out

Max loss trails the end-of-day balance high by 10% until a reward resets it. A best day over 50% of the profit holds back passing and rewards. Standard type: no orders 2 minutes either side of selected news and no weekend holding; the Swing type lifts both.

Day count
First request taken 19 days after the first trade: 14 days plus 3 business days for the identity check, whose time is not stated.

Rules

Launched 12 Oct 2026. No evaluation; the account activates at purchase; one-time non-refundable fee; only one active Instant Account per trader. Max Daily Loss 3%: the balance at 00:00 CE(S)T minus 3%. Max Loss 10% intraday balance-based trailing (highest closed balance minus 10% of initial), never decreases, does not reset on a Reward and carries over to the FTMO Account, so each withdrawal must leave the balance above it. Consistency: Best Day at most 30% of total profit, measured from zero again after each Reward. 90% ratio; first Reward 14 days after the first trade; FTMO Identity at the first request. Leverage up to 1:100. Scaling Plan does not apply. Platforms on the promo page: MetaTrader, cTrader, TradingView.

Watch out

Max loss trails the highest closed balance by 10% and never resets: each reward must leave the balance above it, so one reward stays under 10% of the size. One active Instant Account per trader. News and weekend rules are not stated.

Open points
Plan labels for the drawdown, payout-eligibility, cap and reset-fee blocks are not visible in the page text; mapped with the official Growth/Pro descriptions (Growth: lower price, no Evaluation daily limit, soft funded daily limit, 50% withdrawals, caps from $2,500; Pro: 'target-to-drawdown starting as low as 1:1', 100% withdrawals, caps $5,000 and $8,000, hard daily limit). Which reset fee goes with which plan is inferred. Calendar time between payouts, approval time and drawdown behaviour after a payout are not stated. Futures news, overnight and country rules not read; inactivity (third-party TradeTanto): warning at 30 days, closure at 60 days.

Rules

FTMO Futures Pro = 'Full withdrawals, higher caps', target-to-drawdown from 1:1 (50K). Evaluation: 6% target, hard daily loss limit, EOD trailing drawdown on equity locking at initial capital, 50% consistency (Evaluation only), no minimum days. Sim-Funded: hard daily loss limit (immediate permanent termination), drawdown locked for life at initial once reached, contract scaling. Payouts: 5 Qualifying Days at the size's minimum daily P&L per cycle, up to 100% of profit above initial per request, caps $5,000/$6,000/$8,000, at least 50% of each request new profit from the current cycle, $20 minimum, 90/10; the FAQ warns that a full withdrawal can breach the drawdown. Sim-Funded accounts with at least one approved payout are eligible to move to Live Funded (daily payouts, no payout cap, no daily loss limit, payout once the 'Safety Net' is cleared - amount not read; max 3 Live Funded accounts; once Live Funded, Evaluation and Sim-Funded accounts cannot be held and Sim-Funded accounts without a payout are closed). Hungary: CFD country list checked only; futures eligibility not separately verified.

Watch out

Billed monthly until passed. The hard daily loss limit ends the account at once. Withdrawing everything can breach the drawdown once it locks at the start. Contracts start at 2/4/6 and scale with profit. Futures eligibility for Hungary not verified.

Assumptions

Where a source leaves a rule open, the Finder takes the slower reading. Each program lists what it assumes for every size; a size lists only what it adds. Every payout is requested as early as the rules allow; the request that reaches the amount takes only what it still needs.

The firm's own rules, in brief

  • Bots. Bots allowed on every program; the wording differs, so each program lists its own rule.
  • Accounts. CFD: no limit on the number of accounts, but total allocation across all accounts and products is capped at $400,000 per trader or strategy before scaling (EUR 320,000, GBP 280,000, CAD 480,000, AUD 520,000, CHF 320,000, CZK 8,000,000; higher with the Premium Programme); only one active Instant Account; Scaling Plan up to $2,000,000 across all FTMO Accounts; circumventing the limits through different registrations is prohibited. Futures: unlimited Evaluations, max 3 Sim-Funded accounts across Growth and Pro (up to $450,000), max 3 Live Funded; once Live Funded, no Evaluation or Sim-Funded accounts. Whether futures count toward the CFD $400,000 cap: not stated.
  • Copy trading. No copy trading across registrations ('no copy trading across registrations is allowed and FTMO requires you to use a unique strategy', Futures FAQ). CFD: if similar trading is detected across accounts, including trades copied from the same third-party source, FTMO 'reserves the right to suspend the affected accounts'. Copying between one's own accounts within the allocation cap: not stated.
  • News. CFD FTMO Account, Standard type: no order execution (including SL, TP and pending orders) on affected symbols from 2 minutes before to 2 minutes after selected news; positions opened more than 2 minutes earlier may stay open; violations may terminate the account. Not applied in the Challenge or Verification; the Swing type has no news restriction. Instant Account: not stated. Futures: FAQ exists, not read.
  • Overnight and weekend. CFD: FTMO restricts holding positions through market breaks longer than 2 hours (weekends) except on Swing accounts and in the Challenge or Verification; the FAQ summary says this applies only to the Standard type once on an FTMO Account (page wording inconsistent). Instant Account: not stated. Futures: FAQ exists, not read.
