Questions, answered

FundedTick is a prop trading firm. You prove your skill on an evaluation account under published rules; pass, and you trade a funded account and keep 80% of the profit, paid bi-weekly.

No. You pay a one-time evaluation fee, and that is the only money you ever put in. You never deposit trading capital, and the fee comes back in full with your first payout.

Pick a challenge type and an account size, hit the profit target while staying inside the drawdown limits, and your pass is confirmed the moment it happens. Your trades are then checked against the published rules on the same record, and the funded account is issued when that check clears.

Two. 1-Step: one stage, a 10% target, straight to funded. 2-Step: a 5% target then a 10% target, with more drawdown room. Both have no time limit.

$1,000, $2,000, $3,000, $5,000 and $10,000, on both challenge types. Evaluations start at $9.

You register once, as yourself. From there you may run several accounts at the same time, on either challenge type, as long as their combined starting size stays within $15,000.

No. An account stays on the broker it was bought on, so try the broker and its trading conditions on a demo account before you purchase.

In crypto, from any wallet or exchange: 284 coins and networks, an exact amount held 90 minutes, confirmed automatically by the network. No card is needed. The fee comes back with your first payout.

There is no experience requirement. The rules reward discipline more than anything else, so read the rules page before you buy.

MetaTrader 4 and MetaTrader 5, with a supported broker. You trade forex currency pairs, indices, gold and metals, and crypto, plus anything else the broker has enabled.

No. Take the time your strategy needs. The only clock is inactivity: an account with no trade for 30 days closes.

Daily drawdown resets from your balance once a day, at the countdown timer shown in your trader panel, and total drawdown is one fixed floor from your starting balance. Nothing trails, and nothing tightens after you start.

Both are allowed, on every plan. Weekend days do not count toward the minimum trading days, and the spread widening and slippage around major releases are yours to manage; a floor crossed on a news tick is still crossed.

Gap trading, arbitrage between markets or brokers, double-sided bracket orders, high-frequency bursts, martingale and grid systems, coordinated or group trading, and copying another trader’s account. The list is closed: if a practice is not on it, it is not prohibited.

No. The rules are fixed the moment your account opens and stay the same for its whole life. What the plan says is what your account is measured on.

Yes, 3. Hit the target on day one and your pass confirms the moment your third trading day is on record.

You may copy your own personal account into your FundedTick account. Hedging between accounts is not allowed. A trade closed in under 30 seconds is not a breach, but its profit does not count toward your target or payout.

The account stops the moment a limit is crossed. You keep your trading profile and full history so you can see how you traded and take that into the next one, and you can start a new evaluation at the normal fee. There is no other penalty.

80% of the profit on your funded account, paid bi-weekly. The split is written on the plan, not “up to”.

One: on the funded $10K account only, no single day may account for more than 40% of your profit. It is published here and on the rules page, not discovered at withdrawal. There is no first-payout cap and no profit buffer.

Your entire evaluation fee is returned with your first payout. Pass, get paid once, and the evaluation cost you nothing.

Yes. Refer a new trader and you earn 5% of their first purchase, credited to your referral balance; later purchases earn nothing. You can withdraw from that balance from $5.

Yes. Evaluation and funded accounts are simulated accounts on live market data. FundedTick is not a broker and holds no client deposits. Payouts are real money, calculated from your performance under the published rules.

No. Most evaluations end in a breached rule, here as at every prop firm, and we would rather say so than pretend otherwise. What we do promise is that a pass or a breach is decided by the published rules alone, and that a failed evaluation leaves you with your full trading profile and history to learn from.

The evaluation system, on the published numbers, on every tick. No discretion: the moment your balance reaches the target you have passed, and the moment your equity crosses a floor the account stops. The next evaluation stage opens on its own. Before the funded account is issued, the account's trades are checked against the same published rules, on the same record. Every decision is kept on a permanent record, and a breach is recorded with its rule, figure, limit and exact time.

Open a ticket from the portal with the account number. Support checks the same recorded data the decision was made on and answers with the trades and timestamps involved. A floating-risk breach caused purely by slippage on a fill can be waived after that review; a floor crossed on real market prices stands.

Not by default. We ask for an identity check only when something calls for it: a question about who you are at a payout check, signs of a shared or duplicate account, or where the law requires it. Then once, and not again unless something about your account changes. The documents are used for that check only and deleted once it is complete and any legal retention period has passed.

The transaction id and the amount, which is what any payment on a public network shows. No card, no bank account, no statement with our name on it. We keep the order, the amount and the transaction reference, as the privacy page lists.

Anywhere the service is lawful. FundedTick services are not offered to residents of countries or territories on the United Nations, European Union or OFAC sanctions lists, or designated high-risk by the Financial Action Task Force, or of any other jurisdiction where the service would be unlawful. Everywhere else, if you can send USDT, you can buy an evaluation: no card to be declined, no bank in between, and payouts go to the same kind of wallet.

Because we only publish numbers that can be checked. Payout figures appear on this site when they come from the same record that enforces the rules, not from a counter nobody can verify, and we do not buy or solicit reviews. Your own account history, which you can export at any time, is the proof we would rather you rely on.
