ATFunded Frequently Asked Questions

General FAQs

Prohibited trading strategies

To maintain a fair, consistent, and responsible trading environment, the following strategies are not allowed within our funded trading program:

Reverse Trading
Executing a buy trade on one demo account while placing a sell trade on another demo account is not allowed. This action violates the prohibition against reverse trading or hedging across multiple demo accounts. Additionally, group hedging, where individuals coordinate opposing positions across one or more prop firms to minimize or eliminate risk and take advantage of prop firm rules, is strictly prohibited.

Copytrading
Copying the trades of others undermines the evaluation of individual skills and does not reflect a trader’s own abilities, which is essential in a prop firm environment.

Arbitrage
This strategy exploits price differences across markets or exchanges. It is prohibited as it relies on system inefficiencies rather than trading skills.

High-Frequency Trading (HFT)
Using algorithms to execute trades at high speeds.

Tick Scalping
This strategy involves making quick trades to profit from minor price changes.

General FAQs

What counts as a single trade idea?

Trades are treated as one trade idea when they are opened on the same instrument, in the same direction, and within 15 minutes of the previous trade being closed.

General FAQs

What happens if I do not request my payout when it’s due?

In such case, as long as you meet the requirements you can request it at any time within 10 days of the original date, with all of your trades closed. After 10 days the button will become unavailable, and you will have to wait until the next payout date (30 / 14 days from your last payout).

Legacy - 2 Phase Program

What is the maximum allocation in the ATFunded Legacy program?

Legacy - 2 Phase Program

Is there a limit on the number of trades open on ATFunded Legacy Accounts?

In the ATFunded Legacy program, you are not restricted to the number of trades you are allowed to have open on the same pair or across pairs at the same time.

Legacy - 2 Phase Program

Are there any Margin Rules in the Legacy program?

Yes. The Margin Call level is set at 110%, while the Stop Out level is set at 100%.

A Margin Call indicates that your account is approaching its margin limit. While your margin remains at that level, you will not be able to place additional trades unless more margin becomes available.

A Stop Out occurs when all available margin has been exhausted. In that case, all active positions will be closed automatically, no matter whether they are currently in profit or loss.

Once a Stop Out takes place, the account is considered to be permanently breached, regardless of the remaining balance or equity.

To prevent this, traders are strongly advised to keep a close eye on both position sizing and overall margin consumption.

Legacy - 2 Phase Program

Is there a trade size limit on ATFunded Legacy accounts?

No, ATFunded Legacy accounts do not come with trade size limits.

However, we always urge our traders to follow good risk management practices. Gambling, especially overleveraging will not be tolerated. If your Margin Level reaches 100%, your account will be breached as well.
