Match-Trader:
No country restrictions.

MetaTrader 5:
Access to this platform is not available to users residing in the United States.

Bybit platform:
Crypto Fund Trader does not impose any country restrictions on users who choose to evaluate via Bybit. However, all traders must use their own personal Bybit accounts and are fully responsible for complying with Bybit Terms of Service and jurisdictional restrictions.

Traders from such countries may use Bybit demo accounts at their own discretion and risk. Crypto Fund Trader is not responsible for any breaches of Bybit terms, nor for any actions taken by Bybit against the user’s account.

To become eligible for our reward-based program, you must successfully complete either the one-phase or two-phase evaluation process.
Upon completion, you may access our advanced simulation stage, where top performers can qualify for internal scholarships based on their trading performance.

If you have selected the 2 step evaluation: within a few minutes the system will send your phase 2 account.

If you have selected the 1 step evaluation: within a few minutes the system will send your live account.

When phase 2 is passed, you will receive an email of confirmation, then within a few minutes the system will send your live account.

If you break any of the rules such as the max daily drawdown, the max overall drawdown, or trailing drawdown (on 1 step evaluation) you will be notified by email and your account will be deactivated.

We want to give traders the most freedom as possible, the maximum trading period is unlimited.

You have to trade in at least 5 different days on each phase. They do not need to be consecutive.

Drawdown breach is based on equity. The daily maximum loss (5% on 2 phases evaluation and 4% on 1 phase evaluation) is calculated based on your starting balance at 12:05 AM UTC. The maximum loss limit is fixed at 10% of the initial account balance on 2-phase evaluations (trailing loss works on 1-phase evaluation).

Applies only to 1-phase evaluations. Drawdown breach is based on equity.

The trailing drawdown loss (6%) is calculated based on your maximum balance reached until 6% of the account is exceeded. At that point, it will remain static at the initial capital of the account.

Example: You start out with a $100,000 account. Your trailing drawdown loss is $94,000. Let’s say you make $7,000 profit. Once your account has made over 6% of the starting balance your trailing now locks in $100,000. It no longer trails.
