What is the profit target?

The profit target for the Expert Challenge is 8% of your starting balance. This means that if you start with a $100,000 account, you need to generate a profit of $8,000 to complete the challenge. Once you achieve this target, you must close all open positions to successfully pass the challenge. There are no restrictions on how you reach this target, as long as you follow the trading rules.

No, the Expert Challenge does not have a daily drawdown limit. This allows traders to manage their risk without worrying about daily fluctuations, as long as they stay within the maximum trailing drawdown limits.

The maximum drawdown follows a trailing model and starts at 3% of your initial balance.

  • If your account equity falls below 3% of your starting balance, it will be automatically closed for violating the drawdown rule.
  • As you generate profits, the drawdown will trail upwards until you reach a 3% return, at which point it locks at your initial balance.
  • Example:
    • Starting balance: $100,000
    • Violation occurs if equity drops below $97,000
    • If you earn $2,000 and close your positions, the new maximum drawdown is $99,000
    • If your account reaches $103,000, the drawdown permanently locks at $100,000, allowing you to compound profits freely.

Important: Any first withdrawal resets the maximum drawdown back to your initial balance + $100 buffer. This ensures traders maintain a buffer to continue trading effectively.

The maximum number of contracts you can hold at any given time depends on your account size:

  • $50K account: Max 3 contracts
  • $100K account: Max 6 contracts
  • $150K account: Max 9 contracts

Note: 1 Mini contract = 10 Micro contracts. For example, on a $50K account, you can hold 1 Mini and 20 Micros, or 30 Micros, or any other combination that does not exceed the 3-contract limit.

Yes, you must trade for a minimum of 4 days to complete the evaluation.
Yes, you must complete the evaluation in 60 days.

Once you successfully complete the evaluation, you will receive an email confirming your success. Next steps:

  1. Complete KYC verification via our partner Sumsub.
  2. Sign the contract agreement.
  3. Open an account with Rise.

Our risk-management team will then verify your trading activity. The entire process typically takes up to 48 hours. If you were already funded previously, you will not need to redo these steps.

No, the Expert Challenge does not require an activation fee. This means traders do not have to pay any additional fees to receive their funded account.

What is the profit target?

The profit target for the Starter Challenge is 6% of your starting balance. If you start with a $50,000 account, you need to make $3,000 in profit to pass. Once you reach this target, you must close all open positions to successfully pass the challenge.

Yes, the daily drawdown for the starter challenge is 2% per day.
  • $50K account: Max 3 contracts
  • $100K account: Max 6 contracts
  • $150K account: Max 9 contracts

Yes, you must trade for a minimum of 4 days to complete the evaluation. Each trading day must show a profit of at least 0.5% of your starting balance. This ensures traders demonstrate consistent performance across multiple days rather than reaching the target in a single session.

Yes, you must complete the evaluation in 60 days.

Same process as the Expert Challenge:

  1. Complete KYC verification.
  2. Sign the contract agreement.
  3. Open an account with Rise.

The verification process takes up to 48 hours.

Futures leverage is determined by margin requirements, not by a fixed multiplier as in spot or CFD trading. Each contract at the CME has its own initial and maintenance margin, which represents the minimum amount of capital a trader must post to control a full-sized contract. Please see the CME product pages for more information https://www.cmegroup.com/solutions/risk-management/margin-services/product-margins.html

Our futures program does not prohibit trading during news events; however, traders must exercise heightened caution due to the increased volatility and reduced liquidity that often accompany such events. Traders are solely responsible for staying informed of scheduled economic news releases and managing their positions accordingly.

All positions must be closed and all open orders cancelled according to the following times: Rithmic – Trades may be placed starting at 17:00 CST at the Globex open and can be held until the session close – 1510 CST each weekday
DX Futures – Trades may be placed starting at 17:00 CST at the Globex open and can be held until the session close— 15:55 CST each weekday

Positions will be closed for you at session close (15:10 CST for Rithmic, 15:55 CST for DXFutures).  Trading will be re-enabled at the Globex Futures open at 17:00CST.  Positions cannot be held over weekends.

During holiday trading hours, auto-liquidation will not occur at the half-time market close, and the trader is responsible for closing the positions. Please pay careful attention to market hours around holidays and shortened weeks. Failure to close the positions before the market closes may result in the loss of the account whether it is a Futures Evaluation or Futures Funded account.

Traders must trade the front-month contract for each product, as it has the highest liquidity and open interest. For example, in March, the correct contract for the ES E-Mini S&P 500 products is the March (H) contract—not July (N) or September (U). Trading out-month contracts is prohibited and may result in the loss of your account. Always ensure you’re trading the active front-month listed on the exchange.​To identify the most active front-month futures contracts, you can use CME Group’s Product Slate, which provides detailed information on all available contracts, including their current front-month status. ​ https://www.cmegroup.com/markets/products.html?

The total number of contracts you can hold at one time is limited by your starting account balance: 25k 1 mini/10 micros 50k: 3 minis/30 micros 100k: 6 minis/60micro 150k: 9 minis/90 micros
