Strengths & watch-outs
What works in your favour, and the quirks, fees, hidden rules and operational catches we found in Funded Trader Markets’s rules and FAQ. Always verify with the firm before purchase.
Strengths
- EAs/automation officially allowed
- High payout split (Up to 90% (1-Step Nitro: 90% on the first $10,000 of profits, 80% thereafter))
Watch out for
- Trustpilot has suspended this firm's TrustScore for a breach of its guidelines (Trustpilot says it removed fake reviews for this company). No star rating is shown until Trustpilot reinstates it — 452 reviews remain on file.
Read moreShow less
- Shield Risk Protocol: 1% max floating loss on 2-Step Plus funded accounts and on Instant Plus (the 2-Step Plus evaluation has none unless the 90% add-on is chosen; firm FAQ and program data)
Read moreShow less
- IP overlap rule: VPN/VPS prohibited during purchase/KYC
- US traders cannot use MT5 or cTrader (TradeLocker / MatchTrader only)
- 5-min gap trade rule around rollover prohibited
- Multiple household traders must be declared
- 5% crypto payout processing fee
- 24-hour reward guarantee is 24 BUSINESS hours, not 24 clock hours - the firm defines business hours as 8:00 AM-5:00 PM ET, 9 hours a day, Monday-Friday, so the window can span most of a week.

Miss it and they double the requested reward AND issue a free account of the same size, but the guarantee only applies to rewards up to $1,000. Ignoring a firm email about changing payment method voids it, and not responding within 36 hours auto-rejects the reward.
Show 12 more watch-outsShow 7 more watch-outsShow less
- 2-Step Standard, 2-Step Prime, Nitro Static, Nitro Pro and Nitro X are no longer sold; the standard line-up is 1-Step Nitro, 2-Step Plus and Instant Standard/Pro/Plus
- Nitro's 90% band is first-$10,000-only: 90% on the first $10,000 of profits, 80% on everything after. Free accounts won via giveaways, games or partnerships never get the 90% band at all - they are 80% from the first dollar.
- Leverage is cut twice on the way up: commodities go 1:30 (evaluation) -> 1:20 (funded), and at 200K/300K forex itself halves to 1:50 with commodities at 1:10. Size a 300K Nitro like a 1:50 account, not the 1:100 the marketing headline says.
- Allocation is capped firm-wide at $1,000,000 of simulated capital: $300,000 each for 1-Step Nitro and 2-Step Plus ($600,000 evaluations combined) and $400,000 across Instant.

Trading past the cap for an account type voids the profits on every actively traded account of that type - not just the excess one. Indonesian citizens and residents are capped at $100,000 of simulated capital per trading program (firm FAQ, added 2026-10-05).
Since 2026-10-13 the FAQ also limits active evaluations to $600,000 across all phases of each evaluation program; the funded caps above are unchanged.
- Limited program until 2026-11-15: 1-Step Infinity (/launchpad, on sale from 2026-10-15) costs a one-time $19 / $29 / $59 / $119 for $5K / $10K / $20K / $40K, with a 9% target, a 3% daily loss and a static 3% max loss, no consistency rule and no minimum trading days.

Funded, payouts can be requested any day once eligible ($50 minimum, capped per request at $250 / $500 / $750 / $1,000 by size), at 80% for payouts 1-4, 85% for the 5th and 90% from the 6th; each payout must leave a buffer of 2% above the starting balance (rising 2 points every 3 payouts), and from the 2nd payout you first need 1% of new profit.
The loss floor moves up to the starting balance at the first payout.
The optional Infinity Plus upgrade (+$15 / +$40 / +$70 on $5K / $10K / $20K, so $34 / $69 / $129 in total; not offered on $40K) removes the payout cap, the buffer and the new-profit step - you can request whenever the balance is 1% above the start - but fixes the split at 80% on every payout.
Leverage 1:100 forex, 1:20 commodities (funded 40K: 1:50, 1:10). Each trader can hold up to $40,000 on Infinity and $20,000 on Infinity Plus ($60,000 combined). There is no fee refund: the firm's performance bonus is excluded on Infinity accounts.
Accounts bought in the window keep these rules after it closes.
- No refund of the account fee as such, but evaluation accounts pay a performance bonus equal to 100% of the purchase fee (more with some promotions) together with the 3rd payout - except Instant Funding and 1-Step Infinity accounts, which never get it.
- FTM Perps (launched 2026-11-05 at fundedtradermarkets.com/perps, also www.ftmperps.com) is a separate 24/7 desk on FTM's own web platform, FTM Terminal - not MT5 or cTrader - with 293 simulated perpetual markets (179 crypto, 98 tokenized stocks and ETFs, 9 commodities, 4 indices, 3 FX) priced from Hyperliquid, Binance, Bybit and OKX.

One-Step Infinity costs $34 / $69 / $129 for $5K / $10K / $20K and Infinity Plus $39 / $79 / $149 (5% instead of 3% max loss); both are 50% launch prices with no end date, applied automatically at checkout.
Rules: 9% target, 3% daily loss (hard breach, floating losses count, reset at 22:00 UTC seven days a week), static max loss whose floor moves up to the starting balance at the first approved payout, no consistency rule, no minimum days, no time limit (30 days without trading closes the account).
Payouts any day including weekends from $50 once the balance is 1% above start, with no cap and no buffer, at 80% for payouts 1-4, 85% for the 5th and 90% from the 6th, paid in USDT (TRC20).
Trading costs a commission on each open and close (0.03% crypto, 0.0025% FX, 0.005% stocks, commodities and indices) with no swap. Leverage is set per market: 1:50 FX, 1:8 BTC/ETH, 1:2 for most other crypto. Max $20K per account and $100K combined across both.
Copy-signal services are not allowed and bots/API access is 'coming soon'. This is not the forex Launchpad 1-Step Infinity drop, which has different prices, payout caps and buffers.
How to play Funded Trader Markets
Model-specific observations about their rules and mechanics. Educational only — not trading or investment advice.
1-Step Nitro $100k at $249 is the cheapest large-account entry in the market right now — but trailing DD tightens as equity rises. The 5pm ET cutoff mechanic is unique: positions held over force a tight DD recalc. Best for intraday day-traders, not swing.
