A second chance built for momentum. If an account is breached due to trading behavior, risk violations, or inactivity breaches, it can restart quickly without changing the setup with a discounted reset shown below.

  • Phase 1 Reset: 8% off the purchase price
  • Phase 2 Reset: 8% off the purchase price
  • Master Account Reset: 7% off the purchase price
  • Available only within 7 calendar days of the breach

Max Loss Limit
6%
Equity or balance cannot hit 6% below the starting account size at any time.
How is it calculated? ↓
Daily Loss Limit
3%
Max daily loss from the higher of opening balance or equity.
How is it calculated? ↓
Inactivity
30 days
Account breached if no completed trades within 30 consecutive days.
What counts as activity? ↓
How is the Max Loss Limit calculated?

Max Loss Limit: 6% of the starting account size.

This is a static floor; it never moves. Equity or balance cannot touch this level at any point across all phases, including floating losses from open trades.

1
Worked example

Account size: $100K

6% of $100K = $6K. Equity or balance cannot drop to $94K at any point.

How is the Daily Loss Limit calculated?

Daily Loss Limit: 3% of the higher value between the opening balance or opening equity for that day.

At the start of each trading day, the system records both balance and equity. Whichever is higher becomes the baseline. Equity cannot fall by more than 3% of that baseline at any point during the day, including floating losses from open trades.

1
When equity is the higher value

Opening balance: $105K / Opening equity: $107K

Baseline = $107K (equity is higher)

3% of $107K = $3,210. Equity cannot drop to $103,790 that day.

2
When balance is the higher value

Opening balance: $100K / Opening equity: $99K

Baseline = $100K (balance is higher)

3% of $100K = $3K. Equity cannot drop to $97K that day.

Important
Both floating P&L and closed positions count toward the daily loss. The limit resets at 00:00 Platform Time (UTC+3). Check the countdown timer on the FundingPips dashboard.
What counts as activity?

The account is breached if no trades are completed in 30 consecutive calendar days. At least one complete trade, opened and fully closed, must occur within any 30-day window to keep the account active.

1
When the inactivity clock starts
  • No trades placed yet: the clock starts from the account creation date.
  • Previously traded: the clock starts the day after the last trade was fully closed.
2
Open trades do not count

A trade only counts as activity once it is fully closed. Leaving a trade open does not reset or pause the inactivity timer.

Additional Guidelines

News & Speeches Trading

We use the Economic Calendar on the FundingPips dashboard as our official news source, which features the News and Speeches.
Trading during high-impact news and speeches is subject to specific restrictions depending on account phase.

Important
Purposely trading news and speeches in both evaluation phase and master phase is prohibited and will lead to account closure.
Evaluation Phase

There are no news trading restrictions during the Evaluation phase. Trades can be held and managed during the news events.

Master Account
Soft Breach
These rules do not result in account closure, but affected profits will be deducted.

Trades can be held during news events on the Master Account, however specific rules apply to trades opened or closed near high-impact news events.

1
The restricted window

Restricted News; the window runs from 5 minutes before or 5 minutes after high-impact news .

Restricted Speeches; the window spans from 10 minutes before the high-impact speech begins until 10 minutes after it concludes.

Profit Deduction
Profits made from trades opened or closed within the restricted window around any high-impact news and speeches on the affected currency may be deducted.
2
Swing trader exception: the 5-hour rule

Trades opened 5 hours or more before a high-impact event or speech are excluded from the restriction and can be closed within the restricted window. Profits from these trades will count.

Examples
  • Related currency: if news affects USD, trades cannot be opened or closed on any USD-related pairs within the 5-minute before or 5-minute after window.
  • Trade opened 30 minutes before the event: closing it within the window will result in those profits not being counted.
Trading Rule Clarification
  • Trades opened more than 5 hours before the news or speeches: profits will count if closed within the restricted window.
  • Trades opened less than 5 hours before the news or speeches: profits will not count if closed during the restricted window.
  • Closing any partial orders will affect the entire order, leading to a news trading flag.
  • Traders are responsible for violations if deductions exceed the daily or max loss limit.

Overnight & Weekend Holding

Evaluation
Overnight & Weekend holding are allowed during evaluation phases for all instruments on 2 Step Pro.

Master
On the Master Account, holding trades overnight and over the weekend is not allowed on 2 Step Pro Master Accounts. All open trades will be automatically closed by the system unless you have the Swing add-on.

Trades closed by the system for Overnight & Weekend holding will not result in an account breach; however, it will not count as a valid trading day.

Auto-close window for Master Accounts
Open positions on 2 Step pro Master Accounts are closed by the system each day within a 15-minute window:

• Summer time (from the first Sunday of March): 20:45 – 21:00 UTC
• Winter time (from the first Sunday of November): 21:45 – 22:00 UTC

Closing starts at the beginning of the window, and any position still open at the end of it will be closed. Overnight and weekend holding on Master Accounts can be enabled at the time of purchase through an Add-on.

Impact of Weekend trades on consistency score
Profits from these trades will still be added to the account balance while the biggest winning day and biggest losing day will be included in the consistency score calculation.

All losses from a single trade idea are counted together. A trade idea can be any of the following:

  • One trade
  • Multiple trades running together on the same instrument and in the same direction

3rd The reward split drops to 20%.
4th Account breach. The account is closed immediately.

Trading Conditions

Trading Conditions: Execution Parameters
Mechanics of the Master Account, including purchasing power, trade costs, and execution limits.
Temporary Update: Master Accounts Only
  • Dynamic leverage has been applied to Metals, Energies, and Indices on Master Accounts. See the Important Information section below.

Swap-Free Add-On

Available at purchase for traders observing Islamic finance principles. Removes overnight swap charges on eligible instruments.

During purchase, traders can select the Swap-Free add-on to hold positions overnight without incurring swap (interest) fees.

MT5 Only
This add-on is exclusively available on MetaTrader 5. It is not supported on cTrader or Match-Trader.
  • Applies to Forex and Metals only.
  • Energies, Indices, and Crypto still incur standard swap charges even with the add-on active.

Commission

Standard accounts use the base commission structure. Accounts with the Swap-Free Add-on (MT5 only) pay higher commission in exchange for no overnight swap fees.

Crypto Commission Formula
Lot size x crypto price x 0.04%. For example, 1 lot of ETH/USD at $2,600 = $1.04 commission.
Instrument Standard Account Swing and Swap Free accounts
Forex $5 per lot $10 per lot
Metals $5 per lot $10 per lot
Energies / Indices No commission No commission
Crypto 0.04% 0.04%

Leverage

Instrument Standard Account Swing and Swap Free accounts
Forex 1:100 1:30
Metals 1:30 1:10
Energies 1:10 1:5
Indices 1:20 1:5
Crypto 1:2 1:1

Once Phase 2 is passed and the account moves to the Master Account, Crypto leverage changes from 1:2 to 1:1, including on swap-free accounts. This is a temporary change and is separate from the Dynamic Leverage below. During the evaluation phases, Crypto leverage stays at 1:2.

Important Information

We actively monitor market conditions and geopolitical developments to ensure a safe and stable trading environment. When volatility, liquidity, or overall risk levels change, we may adjust trading conditions as needed. This can include temporary changes to leverage and margin requirements. All updates will be communicated to clients promptly by email.

Leverage Update: Effective 16 March 2026 at 23:59 Server Time (UTC+3)

Temporary Dynamic Leverage

Dynamic leverage is designed to give more trading flexibility while maintaining responsible risk controls. Instead of applying a single fixed leverage ratio to the entire position, it uses a tiered structure where smaller trade lot sizes benefit from higher leverage, and the ratio gradually decreases as position size grows. The temporary Dynamic Leverage is applied to Metals, Indices, and Energies on Master Accounts.

Dynamic Leverage Tiers

Lot Size Leverage
0.00 - 0.05 lots 1:50
0.05 - 0.10 lots 1:30
0.10 - 0.15 lots 1:25
0.15 - 0.25 lots 1:20
0.25 - 0.50 lots 1:10
0.50 and above lots 1:5
Example

The first 0.05 lots of any position uses 1:50 leverage, meaning only a small fraction of the trade's full value is needed as margin. As the position grows beyond that, each additional portion requires progressively more margin (stepping through 1:30, 1:25, 1:20, and 1:10) until any volume above 0.50 lots uses the base rate of 1:5.

The margin requirement is calculated cumulatively, each tier only applies to the portion of volume within its range, not the entire position. So, the lower tiers always benefit the trade, no matter how large it becomes.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Evaluation to Master Phase

Back to section ↑
Is there a time limit to pass the evaluation?

No. There is no time limit on either phase. Any pace works, as long as at least one trade is completed every 30 days to avoid inactivity and all trading rules are followed throughout.

When will I receive my Phase 2 account after passing Phase 1?

Once all Phase 1 objectives are finished, the Phase 2 account will be ready! The new login details appear on the dashboard under Credentials.

When will I receive my Master Account after passing Phase 2?

After passing Phase 2, the Master Account is issued once the standard Master Account onboarding process is complete. This includes KYC verification, a review by the Responsible Trading Team (up to 2 working days), Customer Agreement signing, and connection to the risk management framework (a further 2 working days).

If my open trades are showing a profit above the target, have I passed?

No. To pass either phase, the profit target must be reached with all open trades closed. Profits from trades that are still open do not count, even if they are showing a gain above the target.

Is there a reset option if my Evaluation Account is breached?

Yes. If a Phase 1 or Phase 2 account is breached due to trading rules or risk violations, a Reset option with a 8% discount for Phase 1 and 10% discount for Phase 2 will appear on the dashboard within 7 calendar days of the breach. If a Phase 2 account is reset, it restarts from Phase 1.

My account was closed for inactivity. Can I get an Evaluation Reset?

Yes. Resets are now available for inactivity breaches, with discounts based on the account phase. If Phase 1, Phase 2, or the Master Account is breached, a Reset option will appear on the dashboard within 7 calendar days of the breach. Phase 1 resets receive a 8% discount, Phase 2 resets receive a 8% discount, and Master Account resets receive a 7% discount. All reset accounts restart at Evaluation Phase 1.

Account Violations

Back to section ↑
If my account drops below the limit for just a moment and then recovers, is it still a violation?

Yes. The moment the account value touches or drops below the limit, even briefly, it is counted as a violation. It does not matter if the account recovers right after.

My trade hit the loss limit during the day but closed in profit. Is my account still violated?

Yes. The violation is confirmed the moment the limit is touched. Even if the trade turns around and closes in profit, the account remains violated because the rule was broken at some point during the trade.

When does the 30-day inactivity clock start?

If no trades have been placed yet, the clock starts from the day the account was created. If trading has occurred before, it starts the day after the last trade was fully closed. At least one trade must be completed within any 30-day window to keep the account active.

I have an open trade right now. Does that count as activity?

No. A trade only counts as activity once it is fully closed. Leaving a trade open does not reset or pause the inactivity timer. The trade must be completed before the 30-day window runs out.

What happens if I break one of the trading rules?

The account is immediately locked. Any open trades are closed automatically, and the account switches to view-only mode, allowing full visibility but no further trading.

The dashboard will show exactly which rule was broken and when. An email notification is also sent immediately.

Additional Guidelines

Back to section ↑
Does the news trading restriction apply to all order types?

Yes. The news window restriction on the Master Account applies to all order types. Opening or closing any position type within the restricted window on the affected currency will result in those profits not being counted.

Rewards

Back to section ↑
My reward date has passed but I am not ready to request yet. Will I lose it?

No. Once the reward cycle is complete, it stays available until requested. The request can be submitted on any working day, as long as all requirements are met and the account is in good standing. The cycle only resets after a reward is successfully processed.

Trading Conditions

Back to section ↑
How many lots can I open at once on crypto?

A max of 1 lot per click can be opened on crypto, as long as the account has enough available margin. A separate platform-wide limit of 20 lots per click applies across all instruments, but the 1-lot limit applies specifically to crypto.
