Risk & Drawdown Rules
Max Daily Loss	Maximum Daily LossMaven’s daily loss limits vary by program and are measured from the higher of balance or equity at 00:00 UTC (daily reset window). One-Step uses 3% daily drawdown, Two-Step uses 4%, and Three-Step uses 2%. Instant and Maven Mini accounts also use a 2% daily loss limit.	5	Maximum Daily LossDaily loss limits at Top One Trader are simple but strict: 1-Step and 2-Step accounts usually have a 4% daily loss cap, Instant Funding has a 3% daily loss limit and Instant Prime applies an even tighter 2.5% profile tied to the ESS metric.The daily limit is generally calculated on equity and includes both closed and floating losses; if equity falls beyond the allowed percentage in a single day, the account is considered in breach even if the loss is later recovered.
Max Total Loss	Maximum Overall LossMaven’s overall loss rules depend on the account type: One-Step uses a 5% trailing max loss from the highest equity watermark; Two-Step uses an 8% static max loss from the initial balance; Three-Step uses a 3% static max loss from the initial balance. Instant and Maven Mini accounts use a 3% trailing max loss and also enforce a strict 1% maximum floating/open loss rule.	10	Maximum Overall LossOverall loss caps depend on the program: 1-Step FLASH uses a 7% trailing max drawdown, 2-Step PRO uses an 8% static max loss from the starting balance, Instant Funding runs with a 6% trailing drawdown and Instant Prime typically keeps a 5–6% trailing max loss.For trailing accounts, the max loss tracks the highest equity until a payout is taken, at which point the level locks at the initial balance; breaching the max loss at any time results in losing the account.
Drawdown Type	Drawdown ModelMaven combines several drawdown models depending on the program: static drawdown (fixed from initial balance) on Two-Step and Three-Step, trailing drawdown (moves with equity highs) on One-Step, Instant and Maven Mini, and daily drawdown calculated from the higher of balance/equity at 00:00 UTC.	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 ModelTop One Trader combines static and trailing drawdown models. 2-Step PRO accounts use a simple static 8% max loss from starting balance, while 1-Step FLASH, Instant Funding and Instant Prime rely on trailing max drawdown that follows peak equity and then locks at the starting balance when a payout is requested (Lock Upon Payout rule).The EquityShield risk engine helps enforce these limits by monitoring symbol-level and overall open risk and automatically closing trades if thresholds are exceeded.
Payouts
Payout Frequency	Payout FrequencyFor One-Step, Two-Step, Three-Step and Instant accounts, Maven states withdrawals can be requested every 10 business days after your first trade. Maven Mini is a 24-hour program with payouts available on-demand within the 24-hour window (single payout; account closes after the first withdrawal).	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 Frequency1-Step and 2-Step challenge accounts pay out bi-weekly by default, with add-ons available for weekly or instant payouts after the first withdrawal. Instant Funding normally pays monthly, while Instant Prime offers bi-weekly payouts, again with minimum profit of 2% of the initial balance required to request a withdrawal.Profit splits typically start at 80–90% on challenge accounts, 60% on Instant Funding and 80% on Instant Prime, stepping up over successive payouts until they reach as high as 90–100% for long-term, consistent traders.

Payout Processing Time	Payout ProcessingMaven Mini payouts are described as being processed the next day after the 24-hour trading period ends (subject to approval). For standard funded/instant accounts, withdrawals are requested on a 10-business-day cycle and are processed after compliance checks and the chosen payout rail (Rise/direct bank transfer) timing.	Payout ProcessingFunderPro states rewards are typically processed within 1 working day after approval (average issuing time ~8 hours).	Payout ProcessingPayouts are requested through the Top One Trader dashboard and are routed via Rise (Riseworks) to bank transfer or cryptocurrency. Approved withdrawals are often processed within about 24 hours, although exact timing can vary with the chosen method, weekends and additional compliance checks.
Payout Methods	Direct Bank Transfer Rise (and other options depending on residence)	USDC (direct transfer to wallet) Rise (reward paid to Rise wallet in USD; user can withdraw in preferred fiat/crypto via Rise)	Bank Transfer Crypto via Rise (Riseworks)

Trading Permissions
News Trading	News trading restrictions apply to evaluation and funded accounts: traders cannot open or close trades within 2 minutes before or after red-folder news events (ForexFactory), and profits generated in that window may prevent passing. Maven states the news rule does not apply to Instant and Mini accounts.	14	News trading rules depend on the program. Evaluations are typically more flexible, but on funded and instant accounts it is prohibited to open, modify or close positions within 5 minutes before or after designated high-impact news on the affected instrument. Instant Prime provides more flexibility when combined with relevant add-ons, but bracket-style and pure spike-catching news strategies are still not allowed.
Weekend Trades	Weekend holdings are permitted for all account types (positions may be held over the weekend, subject to underlying market hours and instrument availability).	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.	Overnight and weekend holding is allowed on 1-Step FLASH and 2-Step PRO accounts subject to normal swap charges. Instant Funding accounts require a weekend add-on to hold trades over the close; without it, positions should be closed before markets shut to avoid soft or hard breaches.
Copy Trading	Copy trading from another individual is prohibited; if detected, both users may be breached/terminated. Maven treats cross-user copying and related ‘gamifying’ patterns (including reversing accounts) as cheating behavior.	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,...	Manual copy trading is allowed only between your own challenge accounts on supported platforms, and not on funded or instant funded accounts. Copying between different users, mirroring trades across large groups of accounts or hedging between accounts and firms is prohibited. Violations can lead to profit removal, account resets or termination.
EA Allowed	No. Maven states Expert Advisors (EAs) are not permitted across its platforms; automated trading use can prevent challenge passing and may lead to suspension/termination.	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.	Expert Advisors are allowed on 1-Step FLASH and 2-Step PRO evaluation accounts provided they are customised to the trader, fully disclosed and not commercial grid, martingale, latency or arbitrage systems. EAs are not permitted on funded and instant accounts, where trading is expected to be manual or semi-manual under the firm’s risk rules.
KYC & Restrictions
KYC Required	Yes	No	No
KYC Stage	KYC is required when requesting a payout and may include identity, address and source-of-funds verification. Maven’s FAQ states checkout/KYC details must match government ID, only one email per person is allowed, and the payment card used must be in the trader’s name; Maven references Veriff for supported-country document coverage.	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.	Top One Trader applies standard KYC and AML checks. Traders must complete identity verification and, where required, provide proof of address or other documents before receiving funded accounts and before withdrawals are processed through Rise and other payment providers.
