How can I participate in the challenges?

You can take part in the challenges  directly through the MySureFunds website by selecting a trading model and completing the payment process.

No, MySureFunds is not a regulated financial institution or broker. Instead, it operates as a proprietary trading firm. This distinction is important because MySureFunds does not manage client funds or act as a traditional broker-dealer. Instead, it provides traders with access to simulated trading capital after they pass an evaluation process or opt for instant funding.

While regulation typically applies to entities handling customer deposits, offering investment advice, or providing brokerage services, proprietary trading firms like MySureFunds operate under a different model. We fund traders with firm capital to trade in simulated environments, take on the risk ourselves, and share profits with successful traders.

At MySureFunds, the focus is on identifying skilled traders, providing them with the tools and funding they need to succeed, and creating a supportive ecosystem to grow trading careers. While the firm may not fall under traditional financial regulatory bodies, it maintains a transparent and structured approach to ensure fairness, compliance, and security for its traders.

MySureFunds provides the Match Trader trading platform, known for its advanced tools and user-friendly interface.

Yes, you can trade during news announcements but not on high impact news. However, ensure that trading strategies comply with MySureFunds’ risk management rules.

 

Yes, holding trades overnight and over weekends is allowed.

Yes, but it’s recommended to use stop losses as part of risk management. Be cautious, as violations of drawdown limits may disqualify your account.


Breaching rules such as exceeding the drawdown limit will result in a challenge parameter breach. You may need to restart the process to regain funding. 

No specific lot size limit is set, but traders must follow the risk and drawdown management rules.

 

Yes, copy trading is allowed, provided it complies with MySureFunds’ trading rules. 

At Mysurefunds, we prioritise consistency over lucky streaks. That’s why we’ve the Profit Stability Rule, which ensures that your profit growth is stable and not a result of high-risk, high-variance trading.

What it means:

Your profits must be relatively consistent across your trading days. If a single trading day accounts for  more than 30% of your total profits, it shows a lack of stability. If this is the case, any payout request will not be approved.

Scenario Example:

Let’s say you’ve made $10,000 in total profits on your funded account.

You made steady profits over several days, but on one particular day, you had a huge win of $3,800. That one day makes up 38% of your total profit ($3,800 out of $10,000).

Because this exceeds the 30% threshold, your payout will be declined.

The goal here is to encourage you to maintain consistent profits, rather than relying on a single oversized win that may be hard to replicate.

Tip:

Break your profit targets into smaller chunks across multiple days. Aim for steady growth. That’s what we want to reward.

We require traders to have a minimum of 5 active trading days within the payout period. But here’s the important part: For each of those 5 days to count as “active,” you must have made at least 0.5% profit on each of the 5 days.

Scenario Example: 

Your account balance is $50,000. 

To meet the 0.5% minimum on any day, you need to make at least $250 profit (0.5% of $50,000) on that day. 

Now let’s say your trading breakdown looks like this: 

Day 1: +$270 ✅ 

Day 2: +$90 ❌ 

Day 3: +$500 ✅ 

Day 4: -$150 ❌ 

Day 5: +$300 ✅ 

Day 6: +$260 ✅

Day 7: +$210 ❌ 

 

Only 4 days (Days 1, 3, 5, and 6) qualify as “active days” because they met the 0.5% profit threshold. 

You do not qualify for a payout yet because you need 5 valid days. 

What should you do to achieve the active day minimum rule? 

Keep trading and aim for at least one more day where you hit the 0.5% profit mark. Once you do, your payout will be processed. 

This rule is meant to encourage engagement and consistency not just sporadic high-risk trading. 

 

This is a built-in risk control system that helps you stay within your daily drawdown limits. If a single trade on any symbol exceeds a 2% drawdown, our system will automatically close the position.

Scenario Example: 

Let’s say you have a $25,000 funded account. 

2% of $25,000 is $500.

You open a trade on EURUSD, and due to market volatility, your floating loss reaches -$520.  The system kicks in and closes that trade automatically, protecting your account from hitting deeper losses or violating your daily drawdown. 

You can immediately place another trade after this. 

This is a soft breach, it’s not a rule violation and won’t cost you your account. 

Why this rule exists: 

A lot of traders lose their accounts because of a single oversized trade that spirals out of control. We’d rather help you stay in the game than punish you for a brief misstep. This rule is your safety net. 

Please note that this rule only applies to our instant funded account and does not apply during the evaluation period. 

Always keep your position sizes reasonable and use stop-losses. Let the system help you manage risk, not bail you out of poor planning. 

Traders FAQ

What is the daily drawdown?

The daily drawdown limit of the one step challenge is 4% of your account’s starting balance. This limit ensures that traders manage risk responsibly within a single trading day. If losses exceed this percentage, the account will be disqualified. 

Example: you began trading with a $10,000 evaluation account and achieved a closed or floating profit of $800, bringing your equity to $10,800 at the rollover time (00:00 server time). However, as trading continued, you incurred a floating loss of $432, which amounts to a 4% daily drawdown. This qualifies as a hard violation of the daily drawdown rule.

As a result, you failed the challenge and the account is permanently disabled.

Important Note: Once the daily drawdown limit is breached, an automated system will close all open positions. The final equity or balance may fluctuate during this process, especially if large lot sizes were used, potentially resulting in a slightly higher or lower final amount.

The overall drawdown is based on the starting balance, not equity. Unlike daily drawdown, it applies to the entire trading period. If your account equity drops below 8% of starting capital, it will be deemed a violation, and the account will be disqualified.

Example: If you are trading with a $10,000 account, the maximum allowable drawdown is 8% of the starting balance, which means your equity cannot drop below $9,200 at any point. Falling below this level is a breach of the drawdown rule and will result in disqualification from the program. This ensures that traders maintain disciplined risk management while pursuing profitability.

The profit target for the one step challenge is a specific percentage of your starting balance, typically 10%. For example, on a $10,000 account, the profit target would be $1,000. Achieving this target while complying with the rules qualifies you for funding.

 

Profit split is the profit percentage you are eligible to withdraw when you get to the funded stage. 

When you first start on a funded account you are eligible for an 80% profit withdrawal. If you successfully trade for over 60 days and process 2 withdrawals on the same funded account, then you are able to scale up your account balance by 25% and increase your profit split to 90% on all future withdrawals. 

By successfully trading for over 60 days while making a profit of over 10% and processing 2 withdrawals on the same funded account within this time frame, you can increase your profit split to 90%.

The following trading strategies are prohibited:

Arbitrage trading: Exploiting price discrepancies across platforms.

Latency arbitrage: Using delays in price feeds to gain unfair advantages.

Hedging across accounts: Simultaneously buying and selling the same instrument in different accounts.

Other exploitative strategies: Any strategy designed to unfairly exploit system or market inefficiencies.

Traders found using these strategies will have their accounts disqualified.

 

Yes, EAs are allowed in the one step challenge. Traders may use algorithmic tools to automate their trading, as long as the strategies comply with the trading rules, including the consistency rule and prohibited strategies

Bi-Weekly Payout

At MySureFunds, traders on a live funded account receive a standard 80/20 profit split, meaning 80% of the profits earned within a 15-day period will be paid out – as long as no rule is violated.

To qualify for a payout, traders must increase their account balance by any percentage within 15 calendar days. A minimum of 5 active trading days is required within the period.

Accelerated Payout

We offer an early payout option for high-performing traders.

If a trader achieves a 10% profit increase after 5 active trading days, they are eligible for an immediate payout – even before the standard payout cycle, provided no rule has been violated.

Account Reviews:

Payout requests trigger an account review to ensure compliance. If no rule has been violated, the payout is processed immediately. If a rule has been violated, the payout is denied, and the account is either reset or disabled, depending on the terms and conditions.
