Instant Funding Rules – AstroFunded

2.1. 4% Maximum Daily Loss‍ Limit
The Maximum Daily Loss is the amount the trader is allowed to lose every day. For the purpose of this rule, the higher value between equity and balance will be used. This rule is set to 4% of the starting equity or balance every day. The rule states that the equity of the day, which is the result of the currently floating PnL (Profit and Loss) in sum with all closed positions of that day, must not hit the Maximum Daily Loss Limit. The daily maximum loss resets at 00:00 CE(S)T/server every day.

2.2. 7% Maximum Loss Limit
The Maximum Loss Limit is the amount the equity or balance can’t go below. This rule is set to 7% of the balance equity which is locked in at the initial balance. For example, if an account has initial balance equity of $100,000 account and the Maximum Loss Limit is 7%, the equity or balance can’t go below $93,000 at any moment.

‍2.3. Weekend Holding and News Trading on the Instant account
You are not allowed to hold trades during weekend. You are not allowed to hold trades during news unless opened 60 minutes prior to a news event and close after 60 minutes of the news event on the Instant account. Any trade executed in this window on the affected currency will result in a violation of the account. We use Forex Factory as our news calendar source. All trades are reviewed by risk management team during phase completion and payouts.

‍2.4. Trading Strategy
Trade the way you want. Use an “EA”, trade lot sizes as big as the leverage and rules allow for as long as it is not: Gap trading, server spamming, latency arbitrage, toxic trading flow, hedging, long short arbitrage, reverse arbitrage, tick scalping, server execution, opposite account trading, which are all prohibited. Also, copy trading or account management by a third-party vendor is prohibited. Such activities with AstroFunded will result in account termination. Keep in mind that using a third-party Expert Advisor is allowed as long as it is a trade or risk manager. Using any other third-party Expert Advisor is not allowed. This will lead to a denial of the evaluation or reward and closure of the account.

2.4.1. Max 3 Running Trades Rule
At any given time, you may not have 3 or more active running trades without any stoploss on your account.
Exceeding this limit will result in an account breach.

2.5. 15% Consistency Score
You need to meet the 15% consistency score on the Funded account to request a reward. If you do not meet the 15% consistency score, you can continue trading until you meet the consistency score. This means that the biggest winning trade can not exceed 15% of the profits.

2.6. Maximum 1% Risk Limit
The 1% maximum risk limit rule means that your floating profit and loss (PnL) must not exceed -1% of the account size. If your floating PnL drops below -1%, the account will be closed.

2.7. 7 Minimum Profitable Days
You must achieve at least 7 minimum profitable days by the end of each 30-day period. The first 30-day period begins on the day of your first trade. A minimum profitable day is only counted if the day’s profit is at least 0.25% of the account balance. The 30-day period resets either at the end of each cycle or upon the processing of a reward. Failure to meet this requirement by the end of any 30-day period will result in a rule violation.

Remember! YOUR IDEAS, OUR RISK. To get funded and grow as a trader you should be able to trade and have the right set of skills. YOU CANNOT CHEAT YOUR WAY IN.

3.1. Tradable Instruments and Commission
You can trade Forex, Crypto, Indices, Stocks, Metals & Energies with RAW spreads and a $7 commission per standard lot round turn.

For Instant Funding:

Forex: 1:100

Metals: 1:100

Indices: 1:100

Energies: 1:100

Crypto: 1:100

Once the evaluation program is purchased, the trader will receive login credentials immediately. Changing the account credentials is prohibited under any circumstances.
If a trader changes the credentials, the account will be suspended.

Astro Funded is constantly looking for skillful traders to grow with the firm.
The software continuously monitors trader activity, and any breach of rules will result in account suspension.

5.1. 7-Day Reward with 80% Profit Split
A trader can request a payout after 7 days from the first executed trade on the Astro Funded account. An 80% profit split will be applied.

5.2. On-Demand Rewards with 100% Profit Split
Once a trader achieves the Astro Trader title within our firm, they become eligible for On-Demand payouts with a 100% profit split. More details can be found in our FAQ: “What is the Astro Trader Program?”

Note:

  • Payout requests must always remain lower than the Daily Drawdown limit to maintain an equity cushion, otherwise the account may be breached automatically by the system.

  • All transfers are subject to exchange rates and applicable transaction fees.

  • The minimum payout request amount is $10 (including Astro Funded’s split).

If the trader proves to be skillful, Astro Funded offers a competitive scaling plan to show appreciation.

 

Scaling Plan

As Astro Trader
Upon reaching Funded Trader status after 10 rewards with a total profit of 20%, your capital allocation will increase by 100%.

Benefits of Scaling Plan:

Personal support & access to advanced trading tools and research.

 

On-demand rewards for financial flexibility.

100% reward split ensures you keep your hard-earned profits.

 

Capital allocation potential up to $2 million.

Customized trading conditions tailored to your trading style.

 

Notes:

Scaling is always based on the initial account size.

 

If accounts are merged, scaling is still calculated from the original account size.

 

Risk-Based Capital Allocation:
Additional capital is allocated based on the trader’s risk-adjusted performance. Traders with better risk management receive more capital, regardless of trading history.

The evaluation fee is non-refundable.

Any trading account inactive for 14 days will be automatically suspended.

IP Address (Evaluation Stage & Funded Stage)
The IP address region used to purchase the evaluation must match the region used to log in during evaluation and funded stages. This ensures consistency with the trading account.

IP Address (Funded Account)
The region of the IP address used to access the funded account must remain consistent.
If the Risk Team detects a change in region, they may request proof (e.g., plane ticket, passport stamp, or live video verification).
This protocol is designed to prevent disruptions and protect both trader and firm.

Toxic trading = reckless risk-taking, impulsive behavior, and ignoring risk management rules.
It threatens not only individual trader accounts but also the stability of proprietary trading firms.

Examples of Toxic Trading:

Over-leveraging: Using disproportionate risk vs. account size.

Gambling behavior: Trading driven by emotions, not analysis.

Layering trades (Hard Breach Rule): Opening 3+ positions of the same symbol & lot size simultaneously.

Overtrading: Excessive opening & closing without clear strategy.

Tick scalping: High-frequency rapid trades, exploiting volatility.

Arbitrage: Exploiting execution delays or differences across venues.

Hedge arbitrage / latency arbitrage.

Poor money management: Inadequate risk control leading to margin calls.

Behavioral patterns: Trading at non-liquid hours to exploit spreads.

Reverse trading: Opposite trades between different accounts or firms.

Important:

All such activities will result in hard breach (account closure, loss of eligibility for rewards/payouts).

Astro Funded enforces these rules to promote responsible trading and protect firm stability.

Scaling Plan

As Astro Trader
Upon reaching Funded Trader status after 10 rewards with a total profit of 20%, your capital allocation will increase by 100%.

Benefits of Scaling Plan:

Personal support & access to advanced trading tools and research.

 

On-demand rewards for financial flexibility.

100% reward split ensures you keep your hard-earned profits.

 

Capital allocation potential up to $2 million.

Customized trading conditions tailored to your trading style.

 

Notes:

Scaling is always based on the initial account size.

 

If accounts are merged, scaling is still calculated from the original account size.

 

Risk-Based Capital Allocation:
Additional capital is allocated based on the trader’s risk-adjusted performance. Traders with better risk management receive more capital, regardless of trading history.

The evaluation fee is non-refundable.

Any trading account inactive for 14 days will be automatically suspended.

IP Address (Evaluation Stage & Funded Stage)
The IP address region used to purchase the evaluation must match the region used to log in during evaluation and funded stages. This ensures consistency with the trading account.

IP Address (Funded Account)
The region of the IP address used to access the funded account must remain consistent.
If the Risk Team detects a change in region, they may request proof (e.g., plane ticket, passport stamp, or live video verification).
This protocol is designed to prevent disruptions and protect both trader and firm.

Toxic trading = reckless risk-taking, impulsive behavior, and ignoring risk management rules.
It threatens not only individual trader accounts but also the stability of proprietary trading firms.

Examples of Toxic Trading:

Over-leveraging: Using disproportionate risk vs. account size.

Gambling behavior: Trading driven by emotions, not analysis.

Layering trades (Hard Breach Rule): Opening 3+ positions of the same symbol & lot size simultaneously.

Overtrading: Excessive opening & closing without clear strategy.

Tick scalping: High-frequency rapid trades, exploiting volatility.

Arbitrage: Exploiting execution delays or differences across venues.

Hedge arbitrage / latency arbitrage.

Poor money management: Inadequate risk control leading to margin calls.

Behavioral patterns: Trading at non-liquid hours to exploit spreads.

Reverse trading: Opposite trades between different accounts or firms.

Important:

All such activities will result in hard breach (account closure, loss of eligibility for rewards/payouts).

Astro Funded enforces these rules to promote responsible trading and protect firm stability.
