Not necessarily. A strong evaluation shows you have the skill. Funded performance depends on holding that same discipline over time, under real payout conditions.
What changes when you are funded
- The consistency rule becomes active on every payout request. Best single day at or below 50% of total profit on Signature, under 40% on Booster
- Payouts and account management become part of your routine
- There is no profit target, so the pressure shifts from reaching a number to protecting a balance
Everything else stays the same. Leverage, drawdown limits, prohibited practices and fees are identical in both phases.
If you breach a funded account
The account closes and your funded status on it is gone. To trade funded again you buy and pass a new evaluation. Past evaluation performance does not protect a funded account from a breach.
FAQ
Does my evaluation profit carry over to the funded account? No. Your funded account starts fresh at the initial balance for that tier.
Are the trading rules different once funded? The core rules are identical. The consistency rule is the only genuine addition, and the profit target disappears.
Can I get my funded account back without a new evaluation? No. A new evaluation must be bought and passed.
Why do some traders pass and then breach when funded? Usually a change in behaviour rather than skill. Without a profit target to chase, some traders size up or trade more often. The drawdown limits do not move, so the discipline that passed the evaluation is what protects the funded account.
