Maximum Drawdown — For Traders Futures
Fast and Fast Pro use Trailing End of Day (EOD) drawdown.
The drawdown floor moves from the end-of-day closing balance only, not from intraday unrealized profit.
As the daily closing balance rises, the floor rises with it. Once the floor reaches the account's starting balance, it stops trailing and remains fixed at the starting balance.

Instant Maximum Drawdown

The total drawdown allowance is 5% of the account's initial balance. This produces a fixed dollar loss allowance that does not increase when the account makes profits.

It follows a Trailing End-of-Day (EOD) model based on the closing balance, not the highest unrealized intraday profit.

Example — 100K account
▪️ Initial drawdown allowance: $5,000.
▪️ Initial breach level: $95,000.
▪️ If the account closes the day at $103,000, the breach level rises to $98,000. The drawdown allowance remains $5,000; it is not recalculated as a percentage of the new balance.

After the First Payout
The drawdown floor is locked at the account's initial balance after the first payout and will not move downward. Leave a sufficient profit buffer: withdrawing all profits can bring the account down to the breach level.

Manual scalping is allowed provided that each trade remains open for at least 5 seconds before it is closed.

Not Allowed
▪️ Tick scalping intended to exploit extremely small rapid price changes.
▪️ High-frequency trading (HFT) or independent fully automated trading bots.
▪️ Closing any position less than 5 seconds after opening it.

Allowed
A trader may use their For Traders account as the source (Master) to copy their own trades to externally held personal accounts.

Not Allowed
▪️ Copying trades from an external account into a For Traders account, even if the external account belongs to the same trader.
▪️ Copying third-party trades or signals into a For Traders account.
▪️ Hedging opposing positions across For Traders accounts.

The consistency rule applies only during the Challenge Phase and does not apply during the Master Phase.
The best profitable day must be less than 40% of total profit.
If the best day equals or exceeds 40%, continue trading until the ratio falls below the limit.

Formula: Best profitable day ÷ 0.40 = Minimum total profit required.
Example: a best day of $500 requires at least $1,250 total profit.
If the best day becomes $600, required total profit rises to $1,500, and no later day may exceed $600 without recalculation.
The purpose is to prove that performance is consistent rather than driven by one high-risk day.

The best trading day may not exceed 15% of total profit.
If it exceeds 15%, continue trading until the best-day ratio falls below 15%.

Example:
Day 1: $1,000 profit, total profit $1,000, best-day ratio 100%.
Day 2: another $1,000 profit, total profit $2,000, best-day ratio 50%.
Trading must continue until the best day represents less than 15% of total profit.
The rule is intended to ensure that profit is stable and distributed across multiple days rather than generated by one high-risk day.

Futures positions may not remain open after the end of the daily trading session or over the weekend.

Futures Trading Hours
The session runs from 5:00 PM CT until 3:10 PM CT the following day, subject to US daylight-saving time changes.

The firm automatically closes open Futures positions at the end of the daily session. These restrictions apply specifically to Futures accounts and should not be confused with the firm's Forex or Crypto holding rules.

Maximum Combined Allocation: $300,000

The limit applies to the combined starting capital of all Master (funded) and Instant accounts held by the same trader at For Traders, across:
▪️ Forex.
▪️ Crypto.
▪️ Futures.

Challenge Accounts
There is no fixed maximum number of Challenge accounts during evaluation. Challenge accounts do not count toward the allocation limit until they become Master accounts.

The limit is based on combined funded allocation, not a maximum of three active accounts.

Expert Advisors are allowed only as tools that assist the trader's own decisions.
Fully automated bots and any EA that trades independently without direct trader involvement are prohibited because the evaluation is intended to assess the trader's own skill.
Allowed uses include alerts, trade management, and tools supporting a personal strategy, provided that the final trading decision remains with the trader.

Fast and Fast Pro
▪️ Challenge phase: 7 consecutive days without actual trading activity.
▪️ Master phase: 14 consecutive days without actual trading activity.

Instant Funding
▪️ 7 consecutive days without actual trading activity.

What Counts as Activity?
The inactivity timer resets when a genuine trade is closed, not merely when a trade is opened and left running. Activity must reflect genuine trading under the trader's own strategy.

Proof of identity: national ID, passport, or driving licence.
A selfie is also required.

Reverse Arbitrage
Selling at a higher price in one market while buying at a lower price in another market at the same time.

Latency Arbitrage
Exploiting delays in market-data updates by trading from faster information.

High-Frequency Trading (HFT)
Using advanced algorithms and ultra-fast computing to execute a large number of trades within seconds to exploit small price differences.

Grid Trading
Placing buy and sell orders at predefined intervals above and below a base price to create a grid. This does not align with For Traders' fair-trading principles.

Fast Scalping
Rapid automated trading lasting from seconds to minutes to capture tiny price changes is prohibited.

Automated Bots and Simulators
Automated software and simulators are prohibited. Trades must be managed manually so that the trader's own ability can be evaluated.

Cross-Account Hedging
A buy position on one account may not be offset by a sell position on another account.

Gambling
Excessive leverage, one-sided bets without sound analysis, and unrealistic profit targets pursued through high-risk trades are prohibited.

Group Trading
Each trader must create their own analysis and make independent decisions. Predominantly identical trades across accounts owned by different traders indicate coordination and are prohibited.

Martingale
Doubling trade size after losses to recover through one winning trade is a high-risk gambling method and is strictly prohibited. Rapid position-size escalation or unrealistic recovery trades may cause account closure.

Group and Signal Trading
Group trading and signal trading are prohibited because For Traders is intended to identify skilled, independent traders.
