Risk & Drawdown Rules
Max Daily Loss	5	Maximum Daily LossPipFarm’s Max Daily Loss rule is calculated as a percentage of the previous end-of-day (EOD) balance. By default, the daily loss limit is 3% of the previous EOD balance and is recalculated when the previous EOD balance changes. PipFarm states the EOD is calculated in the dashboard around 22:05 GMT (winter) or 21:05 GMT (US daylight savings). PipFarm also states traders may increase the daily loss limit to 4% after achieving Rank 4 in its Experience Programs.	Maximum Daily LossDaily loss limits at DNA Funded depend on the program. Single Helix uses a 5% max daily drawdown, Double Helix typically applies 6% in Phase 1 and 5% in Phase 2, Rapid Challenge runs with a 4% daily loss cap and Instant Funding does not apply a separate daily limit but is constrained by a tight trailing overall drawdown.The daily loss check is balance- or equity-based around the end-of-day snapshot, and breaching the permitted percentage at any point in the trading day constitutes an account violation.
Max Total Loss	10	Maximum Overall LossPipFarm offers different maximum-loss models depending on program selection. For Static Max Loss, PipFarm states the one-stage program uses a 6% Static Max Loss of starting balance, while the two-stage program uses a 9% Static Max Loss of starting balance. For the one-stage program, PipFarm also offers a Trailing Maximum Loss option which tracks a high watermark (balance-based) and is 9% of the high watermark balance (10% if Rank 2 or higher).	Maximum Overall LossFor Single Helix, Double Helix and Rapid Challenge, DNA Funded uses static lifetime loss caps, typically around 10% for the main 1-phase and 2-phase models and 5% for Rapid.Instant Funding accounts instead use a 4% trailing overall drawdown that ratchets up as new equity highs are made; if balance or equity falls below this trailing line the account is breached, even if it remains above the initial starting balance.
Drawdown Type	Drawdown ModelFunderPro uses a balance-based daily drawdown reset and a fixed maximum drawdown measured from the initial balance (no trailing drawdown). Daily drawdown is calculated from a daily snapshot (5:00 p.m. EST / day start 00:00 GMT+3 server time depending on page context).	Drawdown ModelPipFarm’s public rules describe multiple drawdown frameworks, including: (1) a Static Max Loss (fixed percentage of starting balance), (2) a balance-based Trailing Max Loss (tracks the high watermark of account balance), and (3) an equity-based trailing max drawdown rule (high-watermark equity-based), as described in PipFarm’s Terms.	Drawdown ModelThe evaluation challenges primarily rely on static drawdown limits calculated from either the initial balance or an end-of-day balance snapshot, while the Instant Funding program uses a classic trailing drawdown that tracks new highs and never resets upward after a payout.In practice this means evaluation traders can stabilise their static loss buffers by growing the account gradually, whereas Instant Funding traders must protect profits more aggressively because the allowed loss band follows their performance.
Payouts
Payout Frequency	Payout FrequencyOne-Phase & Classic: bi-weekly payouts (every 14 days). Optional “First Reward in 7 Days” add-on allows first payout after 7 days instead of 14.Pro: selectable payout cadence at checkout: Daily payouts (60% split) or Weekly payouts (90% split), eligible once the account is at least 1% in profit vs initial balance.	Payout FrequencyBy default, PipFarm schedules and processes payouts automatically on the first Friday of each month. Optional payout-frequency add-ons are available: Bi-weekly (1st and 3rd Friday of each month, +10%) and Weekly (every Friday, +25%).	Payout FrequencyFunded traders at DNA Funded can usually request a payout every 14 days, provided they have traded on at least three separate days and finished the period with a positive balance.With the optional Early Payout Booster, that payout frequency can be shortened to every 7 days on eligible challenges, offering weekly cash flow for consistent performers.

Payout Processing Time	Payout ProcessingFunderPro states rewards are typically processed within 1 working day after approval (average issuing time ~8 hours).	Payout ProcessingPipFarm states payouts are processed automatically at 06:00 GMT on the eligible Friday and completed by 23:59 GMT the same day, provided requirements are met and there are no open positions. PipFarm’s Terms also describe a $1,000 compensation policy if a scheduled payout is missed due to internal company error (subject to conditions), and note payouts may be suspended or delayed for investigation or verification requirements.	Payout ProcessingPayouts are requested through the DNA Funded dashboard and, once approved, are typically processed within about 1–4 business days, after which arrival time depends on the chosen payment rail.The firm warns that additional time may be needed for bank wires, compliance checks or during periods of high demand, but most crypto withdrawals are completed relatively quickly once released.

Credit Card (Visa Mastercard) Crypto (TRC20 ERC20 BTC)
Trading Permissions
News Trading	14	PipFarm’s marketing materials state it allows news trading and that it does not dictate how users should trade. PipFarm’s Terms also prohibit exploitative trading strategies (including “news straddling”).	News trading is permitted in principle, but traders must avoid opening, modifying or closing positions within roughly 10 minutes before and after high-impact economic releases or other designated major events, as defined by calendars such as FXStreet.Pure news scalping, latency or gap exploitation around data releases is prohibited, and violations can lead to profit removal or account closure, especially on funded accounts.
Weekend Trades	Payout ProcessingFunderPro advertises an average reward issuing time of 8 hours (after approval). For challenge-fee credits (where applicable), fee credits are processed within 7 days of the first reward withdrawal.	N/A	Weekend trading rules differ by instrument and program. For most challenges, crypto positions can be opened and managed over the weekend, while positions on other markets may be held but not actively traded while markets are closed.The Rapid and Instant Funding challenges are stricter and generally do not allow weekend trading at all, so traders on these products should ensure positions are closed before the weekly market close.
Copy Trading	FunderPro allows copy trading under strict conditions designed to ensure that all trading activity originates from the trader’s own strategies. Copy trading is permitted only between accounts owned by the same individual (including the trader’s own accounts at other prop firms or retail brokers), while copying from third-party accounts is strictly prohibited and results in a hard breach. Coordinated trading between different traders, the use of rented or mass-distributed EAs, public signal mirroring, or any form of collusion is forbidden,...	PipFarm’s Terms list copy-trading/managed-account services (e.g., MQL5 or ZuluTrade) as prohibited trading practices, and also prohibit trading on behalf of others or having others trade on your behalf.	Copy trading is tightly controlled at DNA Funded. Copying or mirroring trades from non-DNA accounts, between different users or across multiple profiles is prohibited, and managing other people's accounts is considered a breach.Within a single user's own DNA Funded accounts, limited internal copying may be acceptable, but traders must still respect all risk rules and avoid patterns that resemble large-scale account netting or group trading.
EA Allowed	FunderPro allows the use of Expert Advisors (EAs) and automated trading systems across supported platforms such as MT5, cTrader, and TradeLocker. However, traders are strictly required to own the strategy or source code behind any automation used. The use of third-party rented bots, closed “black box” systems, mass-distributed EAs, or automation sourced from public signal groups is prohibited, as FunderPro evaluates individual trading skill and decision-making rather than replicated strategies.	PipFarm’s Terms prohibit using a commercial trading robot purchased from a third party without any adjustment to strategy.	Expert Advisors and algorithmic strategies are allowed on 1 Phase, 2 Phase and Rapid challenge accounts, provided they do not implement banned behaviours such as high-frequency scalping, latency arbitrage, martingale or grid systems.On Instant Funding accounts, EAs and fully automated algos are not permitted; these programs are meant to be traded manually or with very light automation that still reflects the trader's own discretion.
KYC & Restrictions
KYC Required	No	No	Yes
KYC Stage	FunderPro requires traders to complete the Know Your Customer (KYC) verification process after passing the Challenge and before signing the funded trader agreement or receiving any payouts. Traders may participate in the Challenge phase without completing KYC; however, verification is mandatory to transition into a funded account. FunderPro advises traders to ensure they can successfully pass the KYC process before purchasing a Challenge to avoid future issues. Once documents are submitted, the verification process typically takes 24–48 hours to complete.	PipFarm’s Terms state that to participate in the Remote Trader Program, the user must pass an ID verification process after passing a Trading Challenge for the first time. PipFarm states verification is completed via ComplyCube or Veriff and may require an identity document, a selfie, and (in some cases) proof of address, questionnaires, or a video call.	DNA Funded applies full KYC for larger withdrawals, requiring a government-issued photo ID, proof of address and a selfie or likeness check through its third-party verification provider.KYC is typically required once withdrawals exceed about $1,000, and failed or unverifiable KYC will result in account closure without refund, as decisions from the external provider cannot be manually overridden.
