Strengths & watch-outs
What works in your favour, and the quirks, fees, hidden rules and operational catches we found in QT Funded’s rules and FAQ. Always verify with the firm before purchase.
Strengths
- Static (not trailing) drawdown — equity gains stay banked
- High payout split (Per plan — QT ONE 70%, QT TWO 80%, QT Power 80%, QT Instant Funded 100%)
Watch out for
- Trailing drawdown — equity gains can shift the breach line
- Tight daily drawdown (see at a glance) — verify your worst-day before committing
- Consistency rule applies (see at a glance)
- LINE-UP RE-CUT 10-11 AUGUST 2026 — QT Instant Funded (Old) was discontinued on 10 August by the firm's own wording, and QT 2 Step and QT 2 Step Elite are both marked discontinued (title only, no date given).

QT 1 Step BNPL (Buy Now Pay Later) is no longer sold: the firm's checkout has had no BNPL product since October 2026, although an old BNPL card and /bnpl/ page reappeared on its static plan pages.
The current plans are QT ONE, QT TWO, QT Power and QT Instant Funded, plus QT Bonus, which cannot be bought separately and is only issued with a qualifying promotion
- Inactivity rules differ by plan and end in a HARD BREACH, not a warning: QT ONE is 7 days, and QT TWO, QT Instant Funded and QT Power are 14 days.
Read moreShow less
The firm's comparison table still lists QT TWO with no inactivity rule, but its help-centre QT TWO article now states a 14-day rule ending in a hard breach - plan for the stricter one.
The clock starts on the purchase date until your first trade, then runs from your most recent closed trade - so a bought-and-parked QT ONE account can breach in a week without a single trade
- QT ONE's 6% maximum drawdown now trails instead of staying static: since late October 2026 the firm's checkout shows 'Drawdown Type: TRAILING' for QT One, its plan pages read '6% target, 6% trailing drawdown', and on 29 October 2026 its help-centre QT ONE article changed 'Maximum Drawdown Limit - 6% (Static)' to '6% (Trailing)'. Plan for the trailing limit
- QT ONE pays 70%, not the 80% the other plans pay — the lowest split in their range, on the plan that is easiest to pass (6% target, no minimum days, no consistency rule)
- QT TWO funded accounts require a stop loss on every position within 60 SECONDS of opening; missing it is a hard breach, not a warning. QT Instant Funded applies the same rule to all positions
Show 23 more watch-outsShow 18 more watch-outsShow less
- Floating-loss caps are tight and differ by plan: 1% on QT ONE (hard breach immediately, no warning step), 1% on QT TWO (first breach soft, second hard), 1% per instrument on QT Instant Funded
- QT Capital is invitation-only and is NOT a purchasable plan. Accepting it permanently forfeits your existing QT Funded accounts and any pending or accrued profit share from them
- Total funded allocation capped at $300,000 ($100,000 maximum on Instant), and the same currency pair may not be traded across several funded accounts at the cap. Evaluation accounts are unlimited
- Connecting to your account from a US IP address is a hard breach the first time: the firm permanently terminates the account and it cannot be reactivated (MetaQuotes' policy). Journaling or monitoring tools that connect from a restricted country's IP count too
- Commissions are $4 per round lot ($2 in, $2 out). Minimum performance fee to withdraw is 1% or $100, whichever is higher — 5% of profit margin on the instant-funding model
- Two of the firm's own help-centre articles contradict the live plan pages and should not be used: the Exposure Rule article still states 2% for Instant where the live plan says 1% per instrument, and it carries an older 'Prime' naming layer.

The QT Power article also contradicts itself on daily drawdown and its own consistency worked example computes 30%, not the 35% it states
- Funded allocation scales to $300,000 across funded accounts, but Instant Funded is capped separately at $100,000
- Payout Promise is capped: 10% of pre-breach profits (or a refund if higher) plus a Phase 1 reset, usable a maximum of 3 times - not an open-ended guarantee
- Prohibited strategies, platform/IP violations, capital-allocation breaches or repeated breaches trigger a hard breach: termination, profit forfeiture and a possible platform ban - the Payout Promise does not apply
- US residents cannot use MT5 or cTrader and Canadian residents cannot use MT5 - and the store now sells MT5 accounts only, so the TradeLocker route the firm's footer still offers US clients is not available at checkout
- Restricted countries: Iran, Iraq, Myanmar, Belarus, North Korea, South Korea, Pakistan, Syria, Egypt, plus Cyprus, Sudan and Russia per the jurisdictional notice
- News trading is plan-specific: QT TWO restricts it and forfeits the profit, QT ONE and QT Instant have no news rule, and QT Power is exempt from the standard News Rule
- Payout requests processed within 24 business hours (excluding the request day), crypto or wire, recipient-side fees paid by the trader
- Add-ons are no longer on sale: the firm's new checkout (app.quanttekel.com, October 2026) lists none for any plan or size, so the paid extras the old store sold - Usage of EA, Swap Free, Refund on First Payout, 14-Day and 7-Day Payout and the 10% Split Extra - can no longer be bought, and QT TWO has no route from 80% to 90%
- Same-pair allocation cap $300k hard limit
- 125,000+ traders, 110+ countries and '$17,000,000+ paid out' by the firm's own count
- HFT / tick scalping / order spam banned
- QT Instant Funded now pays on a 14-day cycle: the firm changed its help-centre Instant article from 4 to 14 days on 29 October 2026, although its static plan pages still advertise a four-day cycle for Instant
How to play QT Funded
Model-specific observations about their rules and mechanics. Educational only — not trading or investment advice.
QT ONE is the fast lane: a 6% target against a 6% trailing drawdown, no minimum days to pass, no consistency score and a 4-day payout cycle - but only a 70% split, a 1% floating-loss hard breach and a 7-day inactivity hard breach.
Read moreShow less
QT TWO pays 80% on a 14-day cycle (8% then 5%, 8% static, 4% daily) but restricts news trading and forfeits that profit. At list price a 25K QT ONE is $350 and a 25K QT TWO $140.
The firm's new checkout sells no add-ons, so the EA, swap-free, faster-payout and 90%-split extras the old store charged for can no longer be bought.
