2-Step Standard Challenge

• During the Challenge phase, no more than 50% of the total profit target may be achieved in one day.

• During the Simulated Funded phase, no single day may account for more than 40% of your total profit.

2-Step Speed Challenge The same thresholds apply:

• Maximum 50% of the profit target on any single day during the Challenge phase.

• Maximum 40% of total profit from one day during the Simulated Funded phase.

Instant Standard & Instant Plus

• A stricter threshold applies: no more than 20% of the total profit may be generated on any single day.

General Notes

• Exceeding the consistency limit is considered a violation of the program rules.

• Profit distribution must remain reasonably balanced and cannot be concentrated in a single large day.

Inactivity Rule

• If an account has no trading activity for 30 consecutive days, it may be automatically closed or expired.

• Traders who plan a break (vacation, travel, etc.) should notify support in advance to avoid account termination. Restricted & Prohibited Trading Strategies The following activities are strictly forbidden:

• Any form of high-frequency trading (HFT) or tick-scalping.

• Arbitrage of any kind, including latency arbitrage and reverse arbitrage.

• Data-feed manipulation, using outdated or external feeds, or exploiting platform delays.

• AI-driven, high-speed, or ultra-fast execution tools that violate platform requirements.

• Trading during system glitches, inaccurate price quotes, or visual/display errors.

• Coordinated trading, group trading, or mirroring trades from another trader’s account.

• Copying trades from accounts not personally owned by the trader.

• Any form of account management services (trading on someone else’s behalf).

• Excessive one-sided risk-taking, overleveraging, or overexposure.

• Any trading behavior designed to exploit platform mechanics rather than market conditions.

Payout Policy - FTM offers a 24-hour payout guarantee: if your payout request isn’t processed within 24 business hours (for amounts up to $1,000), they will double your payout and issue a free account of the same size.

• Payouts may be delayed or re-routed if FTM requests you to change withdrawal method, and you don’t respond — this can void the double-payout guarantee.
• To initiate a payout, all open positions must be closed before making the request.
