1-Phase Challenges

To become a funded trader with TRADICAVE, reach 10% profit target in Phase 1 based on the initial account balance. After advancing to Funded, no specific profit targets or time limits apply.

In our challenge, we use equity drawdown limits. This means your available drawdown for the day would be 5% of your balance at the start of the day (5pm EST). Please look at the examples below to ensure you fully understand this.

Example 1:
On a 100K Account, if at 5pm EST you have an open trade with a floating profit of $2,000, your account equity will be 102K. With a 5% daily drawdown, the equity cannot drop below $97,000 ($102,000 – $5,000 = $97,000) on the next trading day.

Example 2:
If on a 100K Account at 5pm EST you have an open trade with a floating loss of -$2,000, your account equity will be $98,000. Because your $100K balance is higher than your $98,000 equity, your daily drawdown limit of $5,000 will be calculated on a $100K balance. This means for the next trading day, the equity cannot drop below $95,000 ($100,000 – $5000 = $95,000).

Example 3:
If there are no open trades at 5pm EST, the daily drawdown will be 5% of whatever the closed balance is.

Our total drawdown rules is designed to be fair and rewarding, keeping simplicity at its core. You can’t lose more than 10% of your starting balance. The more profit you accumulate, the less likely you are to violate this rule.
For instance, with a $100,000 account, the rule is violated only when the balance falls below $90,000. If your balance grows to $130,000, you can sustain losses up to $40,000 without violating the total drawdown rule. Always bear in mind the daily drawdown rule, as violating it may lead to losing your account or failing a challenge.

2-Phase Challenges

To become a funded trader with TRADICAVE, reach 8% in Phase 1, and 5% in Phase 2 based on the initial account balance. After advancing to Funded, no specific profit targets or time limits apply—just adhere to drawdown rules to safeguard the account.

In our standard challenge, we use equity drawdown limits. This means your available drawdown for the day would be 5% of your balance at the start of the day (5pm EST). Please look at the examples below to ensure you fully understand this.

Example 1:
On a 100K Account, if at 5pm EST you have an open trade with a floating profit of $2,000, your account equity will be 102K. With a 5% daily drawdown, the equity cannot drop below $97,000 ($102,000 – $5,000 = $97,000) on the next trading day.

Example 2:
If on a 100K Account at 5pm EST you have an open trade with a floating loss of -$2,000, your account equity will be $98,000. Because your $100K balance is higher than your $98,000 equity, your daily drawdown limit of $5,000 will be calculated on a $100K balance. This means for the next trading day, the equity cannot drop below $95,000 ($100,000 – $5000 = $95,000).

Example 3:

Our total drawdown rules is designed to be fair and rewarding, keeping simplicity at its core. You can’t lose more than 12% of your starting balance. The more profit you accumulate, the less likely you are to violate this rule.

If your balance grows to $130,000, you can sustain losses up to $42,000 without violating the total drawdown rule. Always bear in mind the daily drawdown rule, as violating it may lead to losing your account or failing a challenge.

There is 5 minimum trading day on 2 Phase Challenges

During the evaluation phase, there are no restrictions on trading styles. All type of EA are allowed except High Frequency Trading (HFT). HFT are NOT allowed on this challenge

Yes, we offer a refund along with your profit on your 1st payout

Funded

HFT are not allowed on funded phases.

All type of EA’s are allowed except EAs that use prohibited strategies such as grid trading, guaranteed Limit Orders and Latency Arbitrage.

There is no profit target to achieve on the funded phases, and the minimum withdrawal amount is $100 USD.

During this stage, two type of profit consistency rule is in effect.

1. General profit consistency accounts for a single trade (25% of the requested profit cannot be made in a single trade)

2. Daily profit consistency accounts for the total profit made in a single day. (25% of the requested profit cannot be made in a single day)


CONSISTENCY RULES (1 PHASE)

Profit Consistency:
Please be aware that 25% general profit consistency and 25% daily profit consistency rules apply only in the funded stage.

For instance, if your $100,000 account accumulates a total profit of $10,000 over a 30-day period, no single trade OR no single day profit can exceed 25% of $10,000, which is $2,500.

Upon submitting a payout withdrawal request, any trades violating this rule will be considered a soft breach. We will remove the invalid trades while ensuring continued account access.

Lot Size Consistency:
The lot size consistency rule comes into play after a payout withdrawal request is made, ensuring uniformity in your trading. To meet the Lot Size Consistency Rule, your average trade size is used to establish your trading range. The range is determined by doubling your average trade size for the maximum value and multiplying it by 0.25 for the minimum value.

Upon the submission of a payout withdrawal request, any trades violating this rule will be considered a soft breach. We will remove the invalid trades while maintaining account access.

For example, let’s say a trader executes 50 market trades with a total of 100 lots traded. The average trade size is calculated as follows:

Average Trade Size = 100 lots / 50 trades = 2 lot
Maximum: 2 lot x 2 = 4 lots
Minimum: 2lot x 0.25 = 0.5 lots
Lot consistency range: 0.5 lots to 4 lots

So your trades must be between 0.5 and 4 lots. Any trades that fall out of the range will be removed. 

Note: Any trades that are placed within a 30 second window of each other will be considered a single trade when calculating consistency.

No matter how much profit you’ve earned, the profit cap is set at 4%, meaning you can have a maximum 4% profit of the size account you originally purchased.
