The payout target is a requirement for a payout request. It is not an Evaluation target because Instant Sim Funding has no Evaluation stage.

Payouts

You can request a payout when you meet every payout requirement. These include the payout target, five qualifying winning days, 20% consistency, the payout buffer, the payout cap and any required identity or compliance review. Instant Payouts means you can submit a request immediately once eligible; it does not guarantee immediate settlement.

The payout rules article contains the complete eligibility checklist, payout buffers, payout caps and progression rule.

Risk limits

Your EOD drawdown follows the highest completed end-of-day balance. If your equity reaches or falls below the active EOD drawdown level, the account breaches. Reaching the daily loss limit locks the account for the rest of that trading day. The daily limit resets at the next trading-day reset.

Trading rules

News trading is allowed. Positions cannot be held overnight or over the weekend. Contract limits scale, so always stay within the maximum position size shown in your dashboard.

Copying between FTUK accounts is not allowed, even if both accounts belong to you. Third-party account management, account sharing and third-party copying are also not allowed.

Platform and fees

FTUK XT is the platform currently shown for Instant Sim Funding. Current pricing and any optional add-ons are shown when you select your account and at checkout.

All Instant Sim Funding accounts are simulated. FTUK does not provide investment advice.
