Risk & Drawdown Rules
Max Daily Loss 5 Maximum Daily LossFT+ uses a balance-based Daily Drawdown (Daily Simulated Loss) that resets each day at 16:59 (EST). A daily balance snapshot is taken, the daily loss amount is calculated as a percentage of that snapshot, and the account’s equity must not fall below the resulting Daily Drawdown figure.Daily Simulated Loss limits vary by program (typical published values): Master 6%, Experienced 4%, Advanced 5%, Premium 4%, Prestige Lite 3%, and Prestige Pro 5%. Maximum Daily LossDaily drawdown limits depend on the program: Instant Funding uses a 5% daily drawdown, One Step uses a 4% daily drawdown, and Two Step uses a 5% daily drawdown in both evaluation phases and funded levels.FTUK states daily drawdown is calculated using the higher value of balance or equity at the end-of-day snapshot (22:00 UTC), which means open profit can increase the daily-loss threshold but open losses still count toward it.
Max Total Loss 10 Maximum Overall LossMaximum Simulated Loss limits vary by program and drawdown model. Core trailing-loss challenges include: Master 6% max loss, Experienced 6%, Premium 8% and Advanced 10%.Prestige variants use a static-loss structure with tighter daily limits and typical maximum loss caps such as 6% (Prestige Lite) or 10% (Prestige Pro), depending on the specific Prestige version chosen. Maximum Overall LossFTUK applies different overall drawdown models across programs: Instant Funding uses a 6% relative max drawdown, One Step uses an 8% relative max drawdown, and the Two Step program uses static maximum drawdown limits of 10% (Phase 1) and 5% (Phase 2) calculated on equity.
Drawdown Type Drawdown ModelFundedFast enforces a fixed Max Daily Loss and a fixed Max Drawdown (no trailing drawdown disclosed on its Challenges page). The daily-loss limit is presented as a percentage limit and should be treated as including floating PnL exposure (open trades) for compliance. Drawdown ModelFunded Trading Plus uses two drawdown structures across its programs: Relative (trailing) drawdown on core challenges (Master/Experienced/Advanced/Premium) and Static drawdown on Prestige variants.Daily Drawdown is calculated from a daily balance snapshot and applies as a daily equity floor that resets once per day. Drawdown ModelFTUK distinguishes between relative (trailing) drawdown and static drawdown. On One Step and Instant Funding, the trailing max drawdown is based on balance (not equity) and only moves upward as profits accumulate. On the Two Step program, drawdown is static and calculated on equity, meaning floating profit/loss is included in the drawdown check.
Payouts
Payout Frequency Payout FrequencyFundedFast states withdrawals can be requested once per week. To have a withdrawal processed on Monday, submit the request by 00:00 (UTC) Thursday of the previous week. 7 Payout FrequencyInstant Funding: Payouts are available on demand, subject to meeting the Consistency Score requirement.One Step & Two Step: Payouts are typically available every 14 days (bi-weekly) once the trader meets minimum trading-day requirements and other eligibility checks (including the challenge-program Payout Locker terms where applicable).

Payout Processing Time Payout ProcessingFundedFast indicates weekly processing, with Monday as the processing day when submitted by the stated cutoff. Exact receipt timing depends on the payment provider and is not specified on the FAQ page. Payout ProcessingWithdrawal requests are reviewed under FT+’s Risk Review Policy (withdrawals are a listed milestone for review). Processing time can therefore vary depending on whether a request is automatically cleared or requires manual risk-team review. Payout ProcessingFTUK states payout requests are usually approved within 1–2 working days after account review. After approval, funds are typically reflected in the trader’s wallet within 1–3 working days depending on the payout method.

Trading Permissions
News Trading Yes. FundedFast states news trading is allowed, but trades opened within 10 minutes of significant news announcements may be reviewed for compliance. Its Terms prohibit “gap trading” during significant news events (example: opening trades within five minutes of a major news announcement). News trading is allowed in principle, and FT+ markets “trade news” as part of its ruleset. However, high-risk “coin-flip” behaviour (e.g., extremely high margin utilisation combined with short-duration trades during volatile news) may fail a withdrawal-time risk review. Instant Funding: News trading is permitted at all stages with no restrictions.One Step & Two Step: FTUK applies a 10-minute no-trade window around major economic releases (from 5 minutes before to 5 minutes after). Trades opened or closed inside this window are treated as a soft breach where profits are erased and losses are not compensated.
Weekend Trades Weekend holding is available via a Weekend Holding add-on at checkout. Overnight holding is allowed (swap applies at market close). Funded Trading Plus states traders may hold trades over the weekend (“hold weekends”), supporting swing-style strategies. Traders should still monitor instrument trading hours/closures and manage gap risk. Forex programs: Holding positions overnight and over the weekend is allowed on Instant Funding, One Step and Two Step accounts.Futures programs: FTUK Futures does not allow holding positions overnight or over the weekend; positions must be closed by the daily cutoff time specified by FTUK.
Copy Trading No. FundedFast states copy trading is not currently supported. FT+ requires accounts to be traded independently. Copy trading between active FT+ accounts is not permitted, and hedging across multiple accounts is strictly prohibited (hedging within a single account is allowed). Forex programs: Copy trading is allowed between your FTUK account and your personal external accounts, but copying between multiple FTUK accounts (or running identical trades across multiple FTUK accounts) is prohibited.Futures programs: Copy trading is not permitted.
EA Allowed No. FundedFast states it does not support Expert Advisors (EAs) or automated trading systems. Expert Advisors (EAs), algos and bots are permitted. FT+ warns that abusive automation can lead to bans and may require traders to submit their EA for approval before receiving a simulated-live FT+ Trader account. EAs may not be used to copy trade or hedge across multiple FT+ accounts. Expert Advisors (EAs) and automated trading are permitted for standard intraday strategies, but FTUK’s permitted-styles matrix restricts EAs from a range of behaviors (e.g., martingale, scalping, tick scalping, hedging, and prohibited arbitrage styles). FTUK also warns that any trading style that constitutes high-frequency trading is not allowed.
KYC & Restrictions
KYC Required No Yes Yes
KYC Stage KYC is required after passing and before the funded phase: ID (passport/driving license/national ID) and proof of residence (utility bill or bank statement dated within the last six months). Upload is done via the Trading Platform profile area; verification is typically within an hour, up to one business day in rare cases. KYC / identity checks are required at the FT+ Trader stage (simulated-live funded accounts), typically to confirm account ownership and support withdrawal processing under compliance requirements. FTUK uses RiseWorks for payout processing and requires trader verification to access and withdraw via Rise. FTUK states payouts above $500 are processed via RiseWorks in USD, while payouts below $500 are processed via USDT (TRC20). If Rise is not supported in a trader’s country, FTUK can manually send payouts via USDT (TRC20).
