If the rule isn’t in the Terms & Conditions, you are in the clear.

All Rules of the Evaluation are the EXACT SAME on the Funded Account.

Unlike other prop trading firms (proprietary trading firms), there are 0 hidden rules. All parameters for the evaluation and the funded account are the SAME and can be found on this page.

Please make sure to take the time to read every rule below. We are building a firm that focuses on your success, part of that is bringing on traders that understand exactly how we operate. We want you to succeed and become a funded trader.

There are only 3 ways to breach and lose an account, please read below for more details:

1. Max Loss
2. Daily Max Loss
3. Inactivity of 30 days (if you do not place a trade at least once every 30 days on your account, ThinkMarkets/Ment Funding will consider the account INACTIVE and the account will be breached) – you are free to place a 0.01 lot (open then close) to keep your account active.

• Soft breach means that we will close all trades that have violated the rule. However, you can continue trading in your Assessment or Funded Account.
• Hard breach means that you violated either the Daily Loss Limit or Max Drawdown rule. Both rules constitute a hard breach. In the event you have a hard breach, you will fail the Assessment or have your Funded Account taken away.

The Daily Loss Limit is the maximum your account can lose in any given day. Daily Loss Limit is calculated using the previous day balance which resets at 5 PM EST. Unlike other firms, we do NOT base our calculations on previous day equity since the balance only model allows you to scale profits without fear of losing your account. The Daily Stop compounds with the increase in your account.

Example: if your prior day’s end of day balance (5pm EST) was $100,000, your account would violate the daily stop loss limit if your equity reached $95,000 during the day. If your floating equity is +$5,000 on a $100,000 account, your new- day (5pm EST) max loss is based on your balance from the previous day ($100,000). So, your daily loss limit would still be $95,000.

The Max Daily Loss is subtracted from end of day balance. It is the maximum your account can lose in any given day. Withdrawing profit on your funded account does not affect the Max Daily Loss.

Max Daily Loss is calculated using the previous day balance which resets (re-calculates) at 5 PM EST. Unlike other prop firms, we do NOT base our calculations on previous day equity since the balance only model allows you to scale profits without fear of losing your account. The Max Daily Loss compounds with your account.For example, on a $100,000 account, the Max Daily Loss = $95,000 ($100,000 – $5000 [5% Max Daily Loss] = $95,000).

So if your equity on any given day is $106,000 but the balance is still $100,000, the Max Daily Loss breach level is still $95,000. If you closed the trade in profit before 5 PM EST, at 5 PM EST the calculation resets and the Max Daily Loss = $100,700 ($106,000 – $5300 [5% Max Daily Loss]).

This is also updated and shown in your Trader Dashboard along with other metrics so you can keep track of it with no issues.‍

Another Example: if your prior day’s end of day balance (5pm EST) was $100,000, your account would violate the daily stop loss limit if your equity reached $95,000 during the day. ‍If your floating equity is +$5,000 on a $100,000 account, your new-day (5pm EST) max loss is based on your balance from the previous day ($100,000). So, your daily loss limit would still be $95,000.‍

The Max Loss no longer trails! The Max Loss is static and calculated ONLY on initial Balance.For example, on a $100,000 account, the account can only be breached if it goes below $94,000 (6%). So if your balance grows to $107,000 on a $100,000 account, the Max Loss is still $94,000 (6% from the original balance).

Important Note: the Max Loss moves to the initial balance after the first withdrawal – incentivizing our funded traders to compound and grow their accounts before withdrawing huge earnings (please see below example).

Example: If you have a $200,000 account, the Max Loss Breach level would be $188,000. If you then traded your account up to $215,000, the Max Loss Breach level would still be $188,000 (6% of the initial balance). If you then withdrew $10,000 as profit, upon your first withdrawal, the Max Loss locks in at the ORIGINAL account balance. So after withdrawing $10,000, your account will have a balance of $205,000 and the breach level is now $200,000, meaning you now have a buffer of $5,000. Similarly, if you withdrew $15,000, your account balance would now be $200,000 which is also the BREACH level, meaning you would lose your funded account.

Further Example: If you continued to compound your $200,000 all the way to $300,000, the Max Loss Breach Level is still $188,000. However, if you then withdrew $50,000 profit, the Max Loss will lock in at $200,000, meaning you would now have $50,000 as a buffer (Max Loss).

We have included this rule to incentivize our funded traders to compound their accounts, ensuring that they have a hefty buffer, can pay themselves out as they see fit, and continue trading with Ment Funding as a Ment Funded member.

We require all trades to be closed by 3:45pm EST on Friday. Any trades left open after this time will automatically be closed. Note, this is only a soft breach and you will be able to continue trading once the markets reopen.

• Forex – 1 lot = $100k notional
• Index – 1 lot = 1 Contracts
• Cryptos – 1 lot = 1 coin
• Silver – 1 lot = 5000 ounces
• Gold – 1 lot = 100 ounces
• Oil – 1 lot = 100 barrels

Yes. If you do not place a trade at least once every 30 days on your account, we will consider you inactive and your account will be breached.

There are 3 ways to lose an account: 5% Max Daily Stop Rule, the 6% Max Loss Rule, or after an inactivity period (not opening or closing a trade) of 30 days.

We are a no minimum trading days prop firm, but you must maintain an active account by opening at least one trade every 30 days.

Ment Funding traders are given the freedom to customize their own 1-step evaluation.

On the checkout page after clicking “Select Plan” in our Evaluation section above, members will have the ability to choose to pay extra for “upgrades” in their evaluation, making their evaluation fine-tuned to their own system. These upgrades will include the following and will see a price increase as addressed below:

1. Hold over the weekend – 10% price increase
2. 90% Profit Split – 20% price increase

Note: you can forgo all options and pay original price, or you can mix and match options; select 1 option, or select all.

Instead of increasing price, since Ment Funding seeks to find the highest end of traders across all trading types, we seek to provide the opportunity for our algorithmic based traders, manual based traders, higher timeframe or longer term based traders, and our lowertime frame and scalp based traders to pick the evaluation right for them.

Upon passing your Assessment, you will receive an email with instructions on how to access and complete your Trader Agreement. Once the agreement is completed and supporting documentation is provided, your Funded Account will be created, funded and issued to you typically within 24-48 business hours.

Once you pass the Assessment, we provide you with a live account, backed by our capital.  The capital in your Funded Account is notional and may not match the amount of capital on deposit with the Broker.  A Funded Account is notionally funded when actual funds in the account (i.e., the equity in a Funded Account represented by the amount of capital) differs from the nominal account size (i.e., the size of the Funded Account that establishes the initial account value and level of trading). Notional funds are the difference between nominal account size and actual capital in a Funded Account.

Use of notional funding does not change the trading level or that the account may trade in any manner differently than if notional funds were not used. In particular, the same conditions and rules applicable to a soft breach, hard breach, Daily Loss Limit, Max Drawdown and position limits apply.

No. We operate at an arm’s length with the Broker. All market pricing and trade executions are provided by the Broker and are not changed or modified by us.  Additionally, we do not mark up transaction costs established by the Broker through adjusting bid-offer spreads, markups/markdowns, commission charges or swaps. 

For purposes of managing risk and minimizing transaction costs, we may offset or negate market risk and act as the direct counterparty to certain trades initiated in the Account.  Such trades are executed at prices provided by the Broker.  This framework is intended to ensure you receive real market execution on your trades, while simultaneously allowing us to manage risk dynamically by routing existing positions or future orders to third parties for execution as we deem appropriate. We believe that such real market execution and dynamic risk management would not be possible or as cost-effective if trades were executed in simulated accounts.  Regardless of whether we act as a counterparty to your trades, the gain or loss on your Funded Account is not calculated differently.  However, when we act as the counterparty to your trades, there is an inherent potential conflict of interest because your trades do not result in net gain or loss to us, as your trades would if we were not the direct counterparty.

We reserve the right to limit the number of open positions you may enter or maintain in the Funded Account at any time, and to revise in response to market conditions the drawdown levels at which trading in the Funded Account will be halted. We or the Broker reserve the right to refuse to accept any order.

The rules for the Funded Account are exactly the same as your Assessment account. However, with a Funded Account, there is no profit target.

If you have gains in your Funded Account at the time of a hard breach, you will still receive your portion of those gains.

For example, if you have a $100,000 account and you grow that account to $110,000. Should you then have a hard breach we would close the account. Of the $10,000 in gains in your Funded Account, you would be paid your portion thereof.

Traders can request a withdrawal of the gains in their Funded Account at any time in their trader dashboard, but no more frequently than once per thirty (30) days. So, if you make gain in your Funded Account, you can request a withdrawal.  When you are ready to withdraw the gains from your Funded Account, click the Withdraw Profits button in your trader dashboard and enter the amount to withdraw.

You can choose to receive your payouts via cryptocurrency or through our new fiat payment option with Riseworks.

Cryptocurrency Withdrawals:

We can process payments to your existing crypto wallet via Columis.com. Available options are USDT (ERC20), ETH (ERC20), and BTC.

Fiat Payments with Riseworks:

We have integrated with Riseworks, a leading provider of crypto-to-fiat payment solutions. If you select Rise as your payout option and provide a valid email address, you will receive a link to create your Rise account. Once your account is set up, you can transfer your payouts directly to your fiat bank account.

We always try to process your requests as soon as possible, which is within 48 business hours of the request (but typically within 24 hours).

Your first withdrawal can be requested at any time. Thereafter, you can request a withdrawal of the gains in your account every 30 days. When a withdrawal is approved, we will also withdraw our share of the gains, and your max drawdown will lock in at your starting balance. The max drawdown does not reset when you request a withdrawal. Example: You have taken an account from $100,000 to $120,000. You then request a withdrawal of $16,000. In this scenario, you will receive $12,000 and we would retain $4,000. This would also take the balance of the account down to $104,000, and your Maximum Drawdown is locked in at $100,000. So, you would have $4,000 maximum you could lose on the account before it would violate the Maximum Drawdown rule. If you take a full withdrawal of the gains in your Funded Account, the Maximum Drawdown will still lock in at the starting balance and will therefore result in the forfeiting of your Funded Account, as your balance will trigger the Maximum Drawdown breach rule.  

Scale up to $5 million. To qualify:

We will double the funded account balance when the following criteria is met:

1) A withdrawal must have been processed on your account before we start tracking these months
2) 6 consecutive months where your maximum drawdown on the account does not exceed 4%
3) Within those 6 months, at least 3 months where the gain on the account exceeded 3%
4) Gain on the account of at least 10% since inception

We have risk management software that is synced with the accounts we create. This allows us to analyze your performance in real time for achievements or rule violations. As such, you must use an account that we provide to you.

Subject to compliance with applicable laws and regulations, traders from all countries, excluding OFAC listed countries, can take part in our program.

You must be at least 18 years of age, or the applicable minimum legal age in your country, to purchase an assessment.

Upon purchasing an Assessment, you will receive access to a trader dashboard where you can monitor your Assessment and Funded Accounts. The dashboard is updated every time we calculate metrics, which occurs roughly every 60 seconds. It is your responsibility to monitor your breach levels.

Our risk management technology is currently integrated with the platforms we provide, which you will be able to download in the back office. These platforms, along with pricing and execution are provided by our Broker.

You can trade any products offered by the Broker, as such products may change from time to time. This includes FX pairs, Metals, Indices, and Cryptocurrencies.

Trading hours are set by the Broker. We do not have any control over the trading hours. You can see the trading hours for each product by right-clicking on any product in the Market Watch window of the MT4 or MT5 platform and selecting Specifications from the dropdown menu.

Please note that holidays can have an impact on available trading hours.

Additionally, pursuant to the no holding trades over the weekend rule, we close all open trades at 3:45pm EST on Fridays.

We use the RAW accounts from the Broker. These accounts have commission charges for Forex. The other products do not carry a commission.

EA’s, Copy Traders, Scripts, and Indicators are all allowed.

You are permitted to take 1 EVALUATION at a time.

With regard to the concept of ‘limits’ this is where we stand at present:

• $1 million max per person (can be made up of multiple assessments, provided none are same size at the same time).
• $1 million max per strategy/EA (can be made up of multiple assessments, provided none are same size at the same time). Note: This applies to “off-shelf” EA’s (EA’s purchased from the market and used by many) We are seeking to fund independent and unique strategies not 1 that is the exact same across the board.
  
  

There is NO limit to how many accounts you may have (as long as it’s within the $1 million limit). We provide prop firm funding and there is NO limit for compounding. Up to $1 million of initial funding, then grow the account to any balance you desire – yes, even $10 million, $20 million, and so on.

Yes. As long as you are trading within the permitted leverage and lot size (seen in your dashboard upon purchase) you may hedge positions on both sides. We want to give you wide capital trading opportunities.

Opening a trade within 3 minutes before or after a News Event is prohibited. If the Company determines that trading has, in fact, occurred during the News Event. Any traders identified as having trading during a News Event during the challenge phase are subject to having those trades removed, having the leverage on their account reduced or having their account breached altogether. The Company has sole and absolute discretion in determining what constitutes a News Event.

Charges come across in the name of Dashboardanalytix.com.

When trading a Funded Account for our firm, you are treated as an independent contractor. As a result, you are responsible for any and all taxes on your gains.

Affiliates are given credit for introducing new Customers to your firm:

1. Customers are registered to an affiliate during Customer Registration (i.e., when the Customer account is created). This is a separate process from Checkout.
   
   
2. A Customer who creates an account that is NOT registered to an affiliate cannot be registered to an affiliate at a later point. At this point, they are no longer a new customer and therefore the affiliate has not introduced them to your firm.
   
   

A Customer who is registered to an affiliate will remain registered forever. An affiliate will receive affiliate credit for ALL orders from that customer for their lifetime.

Most of the FM prop trading firms offer a two step evaluation model. You have to pass the challenge, and then you need to pass the evaluation. You need to generate a certain amount of profit twice.

At Ment Funding we are transparent, and we are a one step evaluation prop firm (sometimes referred as one step challenge prop firm).

Your goal is to generate 10% profit following our rules.

Make sure you review the rules carefully and see how Ment Funding compares to other remote trading firms.

Yes, account merging is allowed, provided the accounts are either in profit or at break-even.

If you were banned by another firm due to reasons beyond your control, such as the firm engaging in unethical practices or having operational issues, this does not automatically disqualify you from using our services. We evaluate each case individually and focus on the behavior of the trader, not the circumstances related to other firms. Therefore, you are welcome to try buying challenges with us, even if you were banned by other proprietary trading firms.

While we are aware that other firms may have their own blacklisting policies, we do not share or cross-reference blacklists with other firms unless the behavior in question involves serious violations of terms and conditions or fraudulent activity. We handle blacklisting internally and independently, ensuring that decisions are made based on our own Terms and Conditions and the evidence we have on hand.

You are also prohibited from using any trading strategy that is expressly prohibited by the Company or the Brokers it uses. Such prohibited trading (“Prohibited Trading”) shall include, but not be limited to:

• Exploiting errors or latency in the pricing and/or platform(s) provided by the Broker
• Utilizing non-public and/or insider information
• Front-running of trades placed elsewhere
• Trading in any way that jeopardizes the relationship that the Company has with a Broker or may result in the canceling of trades
• Trading in any way that creates regulatory issues for the Broker
• Utilizing any third-party strategy, off-the-shelf strategy or one marketed to pass challenge accounts
• Utilizing one strategy to pass an assessment and then utilizing a different strategy in a funded account, as determined by the Company in cooperation with Prop Account, LLC at their discretion
• Utilizing Martingale or any average-down trading strategies, which are often not indicative of consistently profitable trading practices
• Attempting to arbitrage an assessment account with another account with the Company or any third-party company, as determined by the Company in its sole and absolute discretion
• “All-inning” – excessive risk-taking over and over again on one or over the span of multiple accounts

If the Company detects that your trading constitutes Prohibited Trading, your participation in the program will be terminated and may include forfeiture of any fees paid to the Company. Additionally, and before any Trader shall receive a funded account, the trading activity of the Trader under these Terms and Conditions shall be reviewed by both the Company and the Broker to determine whether such trading activity constitutes Prohibited Trading. In the case of Prohibited Trading, the Trader shall not receive a funded account.

Additionally, the Company reserves the right to disallow or block any Trader from participating in the program for any reason, in the Company’s sole and absolute discretion.
