Frequently asked questions
What is the 1x Evaluation Challenge?
The 1x Evaluation Challenge is a single-phase trading simulation where traders use virtual funds on an evaluation account to showcase their trading skills. During the initial evaluation stage all trading methods and strategies are permitted, traders will simply need to hit their profit target without hitting their Max Loss limits. If successful, traders can qualify for a Funded Account with a balance of up to $100,000. In the funded account, traders must adhere to prohibited trading methods, strategies and rules; breaching these will result in the challenge being failed. The funded account operates on a profit-sharing model, starting at 50/50, allowing traders to keep a percentage of the profits they generate.
Is High-Frequency Trading (HFT) Permitted?
High-Frequency Trading (HFT) is not permitted under normal trading conditions. However, for a limited time only, HFT is allowed exclusively during the evaluation phase of the 1X Evaluation Challenge.
HFT involves executing a high volume of trades within milliseconds using advanced algorithms, which can impact market stability. Outside of the 1X Evaluation Challenge evaluation phase, HFT remains strictly prohibited at TradingCult to ensure a fair and stable trading environment.
Traders who attempt to use HFT outside the permitted conditions risk breaching the rules and failing the challenge.
What are the profit targets and drawdown limits?
Profit Target: Achieve a 10% profit on the initial account balance to pass the evaluation phase.
Max Daily Loss Limit: 4% of the previous day’s end-of-day balance. Losses on any single trading day must not exceed 4% of the account balance calculated at 00:00 MT4 server time.
Max Total Loss Limit: 8%, dynamically trailing the account’s highest balance by an amount equal to 8% of the initial starting balance. This means the maximum loss limit adjusts upward as the account balance grows but does not decrease if the balance drops.
Time Limit: There is no time limit for passing the evaluation; trade at your own pace.
Inactivity Policy: Accounts with no trading activity for 30 consecutive days will be terminated.
What leverage is provided?
Evaluation Phase: Up to 1:100 leverage.
Funded Phase: Up to 1:30 leverage.
How does the payout structure work?
Profit Split Progression:
First Payout: 50% of the profits.
Second Payout: 70% of the profits.
Third and Subsequent Payouts: 80% of the profits.
Payout Schedule: The first payout can be requested 15 days after the first trade in the funded account, with payouts every 15 days thereafter.
VIP Status: After completing 5 successful payouts and withdrawing at least 10% of the initial balance, traders can request payouts every 7 days.
Payout Restriction: The maximum payout amount is capped at 6% of the account’s starting balance per payout cycle. For example, on a $100,000 account, a profit of $13,000 would yield a maximum payout of $6,000 regardless of the profit split tier.
Minimum Payout: The minimum payout to a trader is 100 USD. This means that after the profit split, the trader must receive at least 100 USD.
Are there and Prohibited Trading Strategies, Trading Rules and Restrictions?
