BrightFunded

• 2-Phase Evaluation (Phase 1: 8% profit target; Phase 2: 5% profit target; minimum 5 trading days per phase; unlimited time)
• Risk limits: 5% daily permitted loss (EOD high-watermark logic) and 10% maximum loss per phase
• Funded Star account after passing Phase 2 + KYC + security check, with 80% profit split by default (optional 90% add-on; scaling up to 100%) and payouts via bank transfer or crypto (USDC ERC-20)
• Platforms: cTrader, DXtrade, MT5; CFDs across FX, indices, commodities/metals, and crypto
• Max funded allocation per trader: $400,000 (unlimited challenges in evaluation; funded accounts above the cap may be held until allocation frees up)

Scaling Plan

BrightFunded scales Funded Star accounts by +30% of the original account size every 4 months when requirements are met: profitability in at least 2 of the 4 months with at least 10% total profit, at least two processed payouts, and a breakeven-or-better balance at the review point. The profit split increases to 90/10 after the 1st scale-up, remains 90/10 after the 2nd, and becomes 100/0 from the 3rd scale-up onwards, with no stated upper cap on scaling.

Drawdown Model

BrightFunded’s drawdown approach uses an end-of-day (EOD) high-watermark logic for daily risk: the daily permitted loss is always 5% of the challenge size, and the next day’s breach level is set using the highest balance or equity recorded at the end of the prior day. The daily loss resets during the rollover window (roughly 23:30–23:59 CET).

Across the evaluation phases, the account must also respect a 10% maximum loss limit; breaching either the daily or max-loss thresholds invalidates the account.

Commissions

BrightFunded discloses the following commission model in its simulated environment:

• FX (currency pairs): $3 per lot
• Indices: $0
• Crypto: 0.024% of volume (0.012% per side)
• Commodities: 0.0010% of volume

News trading is permitted, but traders remain responsible for respecting all drawdown rules; spreads and slippage can widen materially during high-impact releases. Tick-scalping and any attempts to exploit pricing/data-feed errors are prohibited.
