| Risk & Drawdown Rules | ||
| Max Daily Loss | 5 | Maximum Daily LossDaily drawdown is program-based and calculated from the daily starting equity (platform server time, UTC+2). Gold uses a 4% daily drawdown. Silver, Bronze and Copper use a 5% daily drawdown. Diamond Instant has no daily drawdown (only a total drawdown limit).Daily drawdown includes both open and closed PnL; breaching it can switch the account into read-only mode and close trades. |
| Max Total Loss | 10 | Maximum Overall LossOverall drawdown is static (relative to the initial account value) and includes both open and closed PnL. Gold and Diamond Instant use a 6% max overall drawdown. Silver, Bronze and Copper use a 10% max overall drawdown. |
| Drawdown Type | Drawdown ModelBrightFunded’s drawdown approach uses an end-of-day (EOD) high-watermark logic for daily risk: the daily permitted loss is always 5% of the challenge size, and the next day’s breach level is set using the highest balance or equity recorded at the end of the prior day. The daily loss resets during the rollover window (roughly 23:30–23:59 CET).Across the evaluation phases, the account must also respect a 10% maximum loss limit; breaching either the daily or max-loss thresholds invalidates the account. | Drawdown ModelRebelsFunding uses static drawdown limits: (1) a daily drawdown that resets from a daily starting-equity snapshot (where applicable), and (2) an overall drawdown measured from the initial account equity (not a trailing high-watermark model). Diamond Instant removes the daily limit and enforces only the static overall cap. |
| Payouts | ||
| Payout Frequency | Payout FrequencyOn Funded Star accounts, BrightFunded allows the first reward split request 30 days after the first trade. After the first payout, reward splits can be requested bi-weekly (every 14 days). Optional add-ons at checkout can enable weekly payouts (every 7 days) and/or an instant 90% profit split upgrade. | Payout FrequencyRewards are requested via the client zone. For standard RCF accounts, the first reward can be requested no earlier than 14 days after opening the first trade on the RCF account (and after closing trades and meeting the minimum-profit rule). For Diamond Instant, the RCF reward structure is tied to 10% minimum profit milestones (the account levels up after each 10% target). |
| Days to First Payout | 30 | 14 |
| Payout Processing Time | Payout ProcessingBrightFunded states that payouts are typically processed by the finance team within about 1 day after a request is submitted, with final receipt time depending on the payment rail and compliance checks. | Payout ProcessingRebelsFunding does not publish a single guaranteed processing window on its public rules pages. Rewards are requested via the client zone after meeting eligibility requirements and are then paid through the chosen payout rail (primarily Riseworks). |
| Payout Methods | Crypto (USDC – ERC-20) Bank Transfer | Riseworks (USDT BTC Wise Bank Transfer) Other (case-by-case) |
| Payments | ||
| Payment Methods | Credit/Debit Card Crypto | Credit Card Bank Transfer Wise PayPal Crypto (MetaMask/Coinbase/Rainbow/WalletConnect/Trust Wallet & more) Other (as offered at checkout) |
| Trading Permissions | ||
| News Trading | News trading is permitted, but traders remain responsible for respecting all drawdown rules; spreads and slippage can widen materially during high-impact releases. Tick-scalping and any attempts to exploit pricing/data-feed errors are prohibited. | News trading is not stated as fully banned, but RebelsFunding recommends avoiding major releases (NFP, GDP, FOMC) and its terms prohibit opening excessive trades when significant news/macro events are planned. |
| Weekend Trades | BrightFunded allows holding positions over the weekend. Traders should account for gap risk and liquidity changes at the weekly reopen; a swap-free add-on can remove swap fees for overnight/weekend holds when purchased. | RebelsFunding states that cryptocurrency trading is closed during weekends on RF-Trader for maintenance and platform stability reasons. Other markets follow their normal market hours (typically weekday sessions). |
| Copy Trading | Copy trading is allowed only between accounts owned by the same person (BrightFunded accounts, other evaluation firms, or personal brokerage accounts). Copying between different individuals, signal-group trading, or account management services are prohibited and can lead to profit deductions, resets, or closure. | Copy trading is not presented as a supported feature. Strategies that hedge across linked accounts or other companies are prohibited, and trade splitting across correlated markets is treated as one “real trade” and may be flagged as suspicious behavior. |
| EA Allowed | Expert Advisors (EAs) are allowed, provided all activity remains compliant with BrightFunded’s daily/maximum loss rules and non-authorized-practices policies. | Expert Advisors/robots are not allowed on the RF-Trader training platform; RebelsFunding states it is not possible to run any EA on its training trading platform (manual trading is preferred). |
| KYC & Restrictions | ||
| KYC Required | Yes | Yes |
| KYC Stage | KYC is required to activate a Funded Star account after passing Phase 2, and BrightFunded uses SumSub for identity verification (typically government-issued ID plus proof of address). Activation also includes a security check by the risk team before the trader contract is issued. | KYC is mandatory before an RCF account is launched and rewards are paid. RebelsFunding uses electronic onboarding and verification (e.g., document upload/signing via Docusign/Eversign and identity verification via Veriff) and requires valid, non-expired government ID. |
