Q: Are there specific consistency or percentage-based rules at Maven Trading?

3 Percent RuleMaven does not advertise a universal 3% per-trade rule. Risk is primarily controlled through program-level daily and overall drawdown limits. Instant and Maven Mini accounts additionally enforce a strict 1% maximum floating/open loss rule and require 3% minimum profit for payout eligibility. Consistency RulesConsistency requirements are most explicit on Instant and Maven Mini accounts, where withdrawals require a 20% consistency score (largest winning day/trade divided by total profit, kept at or below 20%) and a 3% minimum profit. Two-Step challenges also require 3 minimum profitable days (0.5%) per phase to progress. Maven’s funded-phase payout controls include an overflow cap ($10,000 per 30-day rolling cycle per trader) and a concentration limit when profits exceed $5,000 (best day or singular trade may not exceed 50% of payout-cycle profit). Other Risk RulesKey firm-wide controls include: 30-calendar-day inactivity limit (no executed trades) for account dormancy, restrictions against account sharing, and an IP-region consistency policy (travel may require proof). Maven prohibits cheating patterns such as latency/HFT/tick scalping, arbitrage, reverse/group hedging, “all-in”/gamifying behavior, and copy trading from other individuals. Maven also reserves the discretion to impose stricter 1% risk limits if it detects excessive trading without appropriate risk management.The full risk management rulebook including daily loss calculations and consistency requirements is on Maven Trading official website.

💡 Answer

3 Percent Rule

Maven does not advertise a universal 3% per-trade rule. Risk is primarily controlled through program-level daily and overall drawdown limits. Instant and Maven Mini accounts additionally enforce a strict 1% maximum floating/open loss rule and require 3% minimum profit for payout eligibility.

Consistency Rules

Consistency requirements are most explicit on Instant and Maven Mini accounts, where withdrawals require a 20% consistency score (largest winning day/trade divided by total profit, kept at or below 20%) and a 3% minimum profit. Two-Step challenges also require 3 minimum profitable days (0.5%) per phase to progress. Maven’s funded-phase payout controls include an overflow cap ($10,000 per 30-day rolling cycle per trader) and a concentration limit when profits exceed $5,000 (best day or singular trade may not exceed 50% of payout-cycle profit).

Other Risk Rules

Key firm-wide controls include: 30-calendar-day inactivity limit (no executed trades) for account dormancy, restrictions against account sharing, and an IP-region consistency policy (travel may require proof). Maven prohibits cheating patterns such as latency/HFT/tick scalping, arbitrage, reverse/group hedging, “all-in”/gamifying behavior, and copy trading from other individuals. Maven also reserves the discretion to impose stricter 1% risk limits if it detects excessive trading without appropriate risk management.

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.	Maximum Daily LossFORFX applies model-dependent daily loss limits that differ between evaluation and funded phases.How It Is Applied:Flash Normal: 5% maximum daily loss across all phases.Flash Aggressive: 10% during evaluation, 5% once funded.Legend Normal: 5% maximum daily loss across all phases.Legend Aggressive: 10% during evaluation, 5% once funded.PeakScalp Normal: 5% maximum daily loss across all phases.PeakScalp Aggressive: 10% during evaluation, 5% once funded.Black Normal: 5% maximum daily loss across all phases.Black Aggressive: 10% during evaluation, 5% once funded.Daily drawdown is...	Maximum Daily LossCrypto Fund Trader calculates daily drawdown based on equity. For standard evaluations, the daily maximum loss is measured from the starting balance at 12:05 AM UTC. CFT lists the default daily limits as 5% on 2-phase evaluations and 4% on 1-phase evaluations.Add-ons may modify certain limits (for example, a 2-phase add-on that increases daily drawdown to 6%). Ascend also adds a specific news window risk constraint (see “News Trading”).
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.	Maximum Overall LossMaximum overall loss on FORFX accounts varies by model and variant.How It Works:Flash Normal: 10% maximum overall loss across all phases.Flash Aggressive: 20% during evaluation, 10% once funded.Legend Normal: 10% maximum overall loss across all phases.Legend Aggressive: 20% during evaluation, 10% once funded.PeakScalp Normal: 12% maximum overall loss (highest among all models).PeakScalp Aggressive: 20% during evaluation, 10% once funded.Black Normal: 10% maximum overall loss across all phases.Black Aggressive: 20% during evaluation, 10% once funded.If equity falls below the...	Maximum Overall LossCFT’s standard evaluation structures use different overall loss models:2-Phase: maximum loss is typically fixed at 10% of initial balance.1-Phase: a 6% trailing drawdown applies (equity-based), and once the account exceeds +6% profit, the trailing line locks at the initial balance instead of continuing to trail upward.3-Phase (if selected): CFT states a 5% fixed maximum loss with a 5% daily max loss.Add-ons may increase max loss limits (e.g., a 2-phase add-on raising max loss to 12%).
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 ModelFORFX uses a static drawdown model where the maximum loss is measured from the initial starting balance rather than trailing from highest equity.Key Points:All challenge types use static (balance-based) drawdown for overall maximum loss.Daily drawdown resets at 5:00 PM EST based on end-of-day account balance.Aggressive variants have relaxed drawdown limits during evaluation (10% daily / 20% max) but revert to standard limits (5% daily / 10% max) once funded.Drawdown calculations include both open and closed positions.The static model means...	Drawdown ModelCrypto Fund Trader’s drawdown enforcement is primarily equity-based. The daily loss limit resets using the account’s starting balance at 12:05 AM UTC. For overall drawdown, CFT uses static/fixed overall loss on 2-phase challenges (e.g., 10% of initial) and a trailing model on 1-phase challenges (6% trailing that later locks at the initial balance after +6% gain).Accounts that breach max daily, max overall, or trailing drawdown are deactivated and the trader is notified by email.
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 FrequencyFORFX offers different payout cycles depending on the challenge type.Flash: First payout available after 10 days from funded account activation.Legend: First payout after 30 days, then every 14 days thereafter.PeakScalp: First payout after 30 days, then every 14 days thereafter.Black: First payout after 10 days.Live: Payout terms based on funded account agreement.All models offer a 125% fee refund upon successful completion and first payout from the funded account.	Payout FrequencyIn the final-stage simulation, scholarship requests can be made after at least 15 trading days, or alternatively every 30 calendar days (if rules were not violated). Certain program variants (e.g., 3-phase rules) note a first request possible after 5 trading days, and an add-on may allow eligibility after 7 active trading days.For Instant accounts, CFT also supports a scale milestone: once the account reaches +10% profit, traders can request a “Withdrawal & Update” to both withdraw and double the account size.
Days to First Payout	10	10	15
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 ProcessingFORFX processes payout requests typically within 1 to 2 business days once approved. The firm supports cryptocurrency-based payouts as the primary withdrawal method. Refunds are processed within up to 2 business days via email request to [email protected].	Payout ProcessingCFT states that once a scholarship is requested, its team verifies the information and sends payment within 48 business hours. After the payment is sent, CFT states the user receives the scholarship in no more than 24 hours (timing depends on the payment rail).

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.	News trading is allowed on all FORFX challenge types. However, there is a restriction on margin usage during high-impact economic events.All Models:News trading is permitted during both evaluation and funded phases.A maximum 50% margin usage rule applies during high-impact news releases to prevent excessive leverage during volatile periods.	News trading is allowed on CFT evaluations according to its FAQ. For Ascend evaluations, CFT adds a news-window constraint: within 2 minutes before and after high-impact news or market opening, accounts must not open/add positions or raise maximum theoretical loss above 2% of initial balance.
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).	Weekend holding is allowed across all FORFX challenge types.All Models (Flash, Legend, PeakScalp, Black, Live):Holding trades over the weekend is permitted in both evaluation and funded phases.Standard platform trading hours and gap risk apply.	Weekend/overnight holding is generally allowed (CFT states it accepts swing trading strategies and keeping trades open over the weekend). Market availability still follows instrument schedules: crypto trades 24/7 while forex is typically Monday–Friday and other CFDs follow their own market hours.
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.	FORFX does not provide detailed public documentation on copy trading policies. Based on the available information, copy trading between your own accounts may be permitted as long as all risk rules and consistency requirements are met on each individual account. Traders should contact support for specific copy trading guidelines.	CFT does not present a simple “copy trading allowed” rule in its public FAQ. However, it explicitly restricts multi-account coordination through rules such as the reverse trading/hedging constraints, and it states that copy trading between Ascend accounts is prohibited (including coordinated or mirrored behaviour that cannot be attributed to chance).
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.	Expert Advisors (EAs) are allowed on most FORFX challenge types with one notable exception.Permitted:Flash: EAs allowed in all phases.Legend: EAs allowed in all phases.Black: EAs allowed in all phases.Live: EAs allowed.Not Permitted:PeakScalp: EAs are NOT allowed on this challenge type.All automated trading must comply with the firm's FLR, consistency, and drawdown rules.	Automation is partially supported: CFT lists categories of prohibited EA types (notably HFT, tick scalping, arbitrage and demo-environment exploitation). EAs that do not fall into these categories are not explicitly banned in the FAQ, but traders remain responsible for ensuring automation complies with all 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.	FORFX requires KYC verification for funded account activation and payouts. Full identity verification is mandatory when transitioning from evaluation to funded status. Traders should expect to submit standard ID and residency documents before accessing their funded account and profit distributions.	KYC is required as part of the scholarship/withdrawal workflow. After a scholarship request is submitted in the dashboard, CFT states the trader receives a contract to sign and a KYC to complete before funds are sent. (Bybit evaluations may additionally be subject to Bybit’s own KYC rules, which are the trader’s responsibility.)
