Evaluation Rules — 1 Step to Funding

Profit Target

10% of account

Achieve a net profit of 10% on your starting account balance to qualify for a funded account. For a ₹5 Lakh account, that means ₹50,000 in net profit. The target must be reached while keeping all other rules intact.

Maximum Daily Loss

5% of account

You cannot lose more than 5% of your account balance in a single trading day. This is calculated from your account balance at the start of that day. On a ₹10 Lakh account, ₹50,000 in losses on one day will immediately fail the evaluation.

Maximum Overall Drawdown

10% of account

Your account equity must never fall more than 10% below the original starting balance at any point during the evaluation. This is a real-time check. If equity breaches this 10% threshold, the account is failed immediately.

Maximum Loss Per Trade

2% of capital

No single trade may result in a loss exceeding 2% of your total account capital. This rule promotes proper risk management and ensures no single mistake ends your evaluation.

Minimum Trading Days

5 separate days

At least one trade must be executed on 5 different calendar days. Hitting the profit target in fewer than 5 days will not qualify you — the evaluation continues until the day count is met.

Time Limit

No time limit

There is no expiry on the 1-Step evaluation. You may take as many days as needed to reach the profit target. Trade at your own pace.

Leverage

Exchange limit only

Leverage is capped at the maximum permitted by NSE/BSE under SEBI regulations. For F&O, standard SPAN + Exposure margin rules apply as defined by the exchange.

Maximum Capital Per Trade

80% of account

No single open position may use more than 80% of total account capital at any time. Going all-in on a single trade is a direct violation.

Minimum Holding Time

45 seconds per trade

Each trade must be held for a minimum of 45 seconds from entry to exit. High-frequency scalping strategies that open and close positions in seconds are a violation of this rule and will fail the evaluation.

News Trading Restriction

±5 min window banned

Trading is not permitted 5 minutes before or after any major scheduled market event. Trades placed during these windows will be voided.

Consistency Rule — 20% Cap

Max 20% of total profit per day

No single trading day's profit can exceed 20% of your total accumulated profits at that point. Any excess profit from that day will be excluded from the final target calculation.

Funded Account — Live Trading Rules

Profit Split

80% Trader / 20% Firm

You keep 80% of all profits on your funded account. FundedStock retains 20% as its share.

Payout Cycle

Every 14 days

Payout requests are available every 14 days, provided you have traded on at least 5 days within that cycle. Minimum payout amount is ₹2,000.

Evaluation Fee Refund

100% on 3rd Payout

Your full evaluation fee is automatically refunded on your 3rd successful payout — provided each payout meets the 5 trading day minimum and ₹2,000 threshold.

Stop Loss — Mandatory

Required on every trade

Every position on the live funded account must have a stop loss set at the time of entry. Positions without a stop loss will be flagged and may be force-closed.

Max Daily Loss (Funded)

5% of account

The 5% daily loss limit carries into the funded account. Breaching this triggers an automatic account suspension.

Max Overall Drawdown (Funded)

10% of account

The overall drawdown limit on funded accounts is 10% from the original account balance. Breaching this results in immediate termination.

Minimum Holding Time

45 seconds per trade

The 45-second minimum holding time per trade rule carries over to the live funded account. Trades closed before this window are a compliance violation.

Terms & Conditions — Section 8.2 (Important Clauses)

Overnight Position Risk: While overnight holding is permitted, any position held beyond market hours that results in a gap loss will count fully toward that day's 5% daily loss limit. Gap losses are the sole responsibility of the trader.

Swing Trade Drawdown Monitoring: Overnight positions are subject to real-time mark-to-market valuation. If unrealised loss on any position causes overall drawdown to breach 10%, the account will be flagged for review.

Third-Party Tools & Copy Trading: Use of automated trade copiers, signal services, or any third-party algorithmic execution tools is strictly prohibited.

Inactive Account Policy: Accounts showing zero trading activity for 60 consecutive calendar days will be placed under dormancy review. Inactivity beyond 90 days results in account closure.
