What kind of drawdown policy does Funded Trading Plus apply?

💡 Answer

Drawdown Model

Funded 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.

Risk & Drawdown Rules
Max Daily Loss	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%.	5	3–5
Max Total Loss	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.	10	6–10
Drawdown Type	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 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.	Fixed (daily 3–5% of starting equity; overall 6–10% of initial balance)
Payouts
Payout Frequency	7	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.	Payouts can be requested weekly, bi‑weekly or monthly. Weekly cycles provide a 60% profit split, bi‑weekly cycles 80%, and monthly cycles up to 100%. Payouts for weekly and bi‑weekly plans are released every Wednesday starting from the second week after the account is opened.

Payout Processing Time	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 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.	1

Trading Permissions
News Trading	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.	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 allowed on all account types. Traders may open and close positions during high‑impact news releases.
Weekend Trades	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.	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.	Overnight and weekend holding is allowed without restrictions.
Copy Trading	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).	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 and mirroring strategies across accounts are prohibited.
EA Allowed	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) are allowed, provided all activity remains compliant with BrightFunded’s daily/maximum loss rules and non-authorized-practices policies.	Expert Advisors (EAs) and automated trading tools are not allowed.
KYC & Restrictions
KYC Required	Yes	Yes	No
KYC Stage	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.	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/AML verification is required before the first payout. Traders may need to provide government‑issued ID and proof of address to satisfy compliance checks.
Restricted Countries	North Korea Myanmar Cuba Syria Iran Pakistan Vietnam	Cuba Iran North Korea Syria Vietnam	No specific list of restricted countries is published but services may not be available in sanctioned jurisdictions such as North Korea Iran Syria and other high‑risk regions.
