 Funding Process
Challenge Verification FTMO Trader

There are two clearly defined steps you need to undertake to be able to trade for our company.

We guarantee that every trader has the same conditions Nobody is given an advantage over anybody else

We know that a good trader is not made by age or education, but by completely different qualities such as discipline and strong
work ethic.

Join the Team Of Our Successful Traders

If you are ready, accept our Challenge and become our FTMO Trader. You can even try the entire process completely free of charge.
 The key to success is simply to start.

The Challenge is the first step towards trading for our company. In order for this simulated account to be
treated with respect, we require a fee in the amount of a fraction of the gained capital.

Don’t worry, the fee is returned together with the first paycheck.

Together with placing your order of the Challenge, you will simultaneously choose one of our partnered
brokers at whose platform you will undergo the Challenge.

First step Why does it have to be one of our partners?

the capital: We will do our best to fit your needs.

Challenge Brokerage companies will be receiving our money. It is

therefore important that the broker is a reliable, regulated and
stable company.

The second important step is to select the initial capital you will be trading in the Challenge.
The amount of the initial capital will remain the same through all your trading accounts.
 One Trading Objective will always be the same for all types of Challenges.

Minimum of 10 Trading Days

To meet this objective, you must trade for at least 10 days during the testing period.
At least one position must be opened in each of these days.

Other Trading Objectives depend on the variant of the Challenge.

There are two options – Standard and Aggressive.

The difference is in the loss limits that are derived from the amount of the initial capital (IC)
Objectives

Example: With the Challenge capital of 50,000 USD - Aggressive version, the Maximum permitted
daily loss is 5,000 USD (10% of 50,000), Maximum loss is 10,000 USD (20%)
and the profit target stands as 10,000 USD (20%)
 Why There Are Trading Objectives?
Thanks to these Trading Objectives we are going to have a sufficient sample of trades to evaluate you.

We will also know that trader’s discipline is stable, as well as trader’s profitability, and, above all, we can be sure that be
the trader follows our risk management objectives. All of this means that our capital is in the right hands.

After the 30-days testing period, the Challenge is over.

Or, as soon as all the Trading Objectives of the Challenge are met, you can start trading the Verification.

The minimum time to complete the Challenge is 10 trading days.

If all the above mentioned Trading Objectives are followed, then there is a second round for you to go
through: the Verification.

If you meet all the Trading Objectives except the required profit target and your balance is positive, we will
give you a new Challenge for free. If you violate any of the Trading Objectives, you need to take a new
Challenge to be eligible to become the FTMO Trader.

Regardless of your result at the end, you will always receive a detailed analysis of your simulated account,
structured in the web-based format in your Client Area. This will include the equity curve, key trading statistics
focused on improving profitability, Trading Objectives evaluation, and above all, a personal message from
the traders of our company who will evaluate the strong and weak points and recommend what to improve to be able to join
the ranks of our traders.
 The last test before we allow you to trade for our company is called the Verification.
It is important for us to verify that completing the Challenge successfully was not just by luck.
There are two aspects in which the Verification differs from the Challenge.

Both are in favor of the trader.

What are these two aspects?

Up to 60-days period instead of the 30-days.

Second step:
Verification Profit target reduced by 50%, now being only 5% in the Verification.

The Verification is the second and the last step towards becoming the FTMO Trader.
Pass the Verification and get ready to trade our funding partner’s capital.

Are You Ready to Recieve $100,000 in Trading Capital?

If you are ready, accept our Challenge and become our FTMO Trader. You can even try the entire process completely free of charge.
Just to make sure we are on the same page, we will recap the Trading Objectives.
One Trading Objective is the same again for all the account types.

Other Trading Objectives differ according to the type of the Challenge. Everything else stays the same as in the Challenge,
except for the required profit.

The value is derived from the initial capital (IC).

If you pass the Trading Objectives sooner than in 60 days, the Verification will be marked as successful.

The minimum requirement is 10 trading days. So in reality, you can become funded in just 20 trading days.

Once all your Trading Objectives are marked as achieved, you will be contacted by us to formalize the details
of granting you the funded account. Now you can start making real money.

If you meet all the Trading Objectives except the required profit target and your balance is positive, we will
give you a new Challenge for free. The whole process will get prolonged, but even so, it will be worth it.
 Congratulations, the testing is over! Now the real game begins.

No strict Trading Objectives anymore!

The minimum Profit Target and the minimum percentage of the profitable days are removed.

The daily loss and maximum drawdown limits are still in place, as these are of course the most important
rules for every investor.

These values depend on the amount of the initial capital (IC)

proprietary software will immediately suspend the account.
 If you wish to trade with more capital, you can simply apply for another Challenge and trade more
accounts.

Each Challenge needs to be traded from the beginning, irrespective of the progress on your other
accounts.

As we need to diversify our risk and funds exposure, we allow a maximum funds allocation of
$300,000 per trader or per strategy, at any given time.
This can be understood as 3 accounts - each with $100k, or 6 accounts - each with $50k, etc.

On the other hand, if you are consistently profitable on the FTMO Account, we will be happy to
allocate additional capital as per our scaling plan.
Earn even
more money - FTMO Scaling Plan
FTMO Scaling
Plan Obtaining the funded account does not mean that cooperation
between the trader and our project will not develop any further.

Quite the contrary, our Scaling Plan lays out the principles of
capital increments.

Bigger capital will allow the trader to trade bigger positions

while not taking higher risk, yet reaching higher profits.

Remember, our project has the same goal as you.

Capital increments take place in four-month cycles.

For a capital increase, the trader has to gain at least 10 added percent points in four consecutive months
(i.e., the average of at least 2.5% gain per month).

At the same time, at least 2 of these 4 months need to be profitable.

If the trader fulfils this, the initial capital will be increased by 25%.

Along with that, the basis for the calculation of loss limits will change and risk parameters will be loosened.

After another 4 months, if the trader satisfies the conditions of appreciation and the ratio of profitable months, he or she will gain
the possibility of further increase of the capital by 25% of the Initial Capital. Increments of capital have no ceiling.

The following table shows the ideal case of the development of a trader’s capital and risk parameters if he or she succeeds in the
50k USD Challenge with standard risk parameters and fulfils the conditions for capital increments.

As you can see, already after a year and a quarter, the trader will have at his or her disposal twice the capital and twice the loss
limits (this is true for any starting capital).

We believe that this service will encourage traders to consistent results and long-term loyalty.
 The Harder the Training, The Easier the Fight
Our Trading Objectives for managing the capital can be tried for free.

The only difference compared to the Challenge is the time period. In the Free Trial, the duration is 14 days only.

It is not possible to gain access to manage our capital by succeeding in the Free Trial, but you get something in return anyway.

Everybody who takes the Free Trial will also receive a short evaluation of the trading results.

Your results will be looked at with fresh eyes, so you will find out what the attributes of your trading are, what could be improved
and what needs to be changed so that the Trading Objectives are met to be able to manage our capital

 Broker Review
You often ask how to choose a broker for your trading. Since we are an independent project, we don’t directly
recommend any particular broker as we are fair with all.
Nevertheless, we have prepared a comparison of our partnered brokers so that you can decide for yourself.
When choosing a broker, don’t forget that costs associated with trading shouldn’t be the only factor for your final
decision.
Other important aspects to consider are the speed of execution, slippages, reliability, regulation or customer
support.

FTMO story
The idea to start the FTMO project, which was initially called
Ziskejucet.cz, was conceived in 2014 in a small Prague office where
a handful of young daytraders, including the two future founders, joined
their forces.

You can see us in the picture on the right.

Each one contributed to one’s own trading system and different ideas
about money and risk management.

Despite our different approaches to trading, we have something in com-

mon: The awareness that professionalism can only be achieved
through strong discipline in observing one’s own rules.

By maintaining rigorous self-discipline one reaches a point where team

spirit and unobtrusive supervision of other traders form the backbone of
conscientious and successful trading.
