Here are the trading rules for the funded phase at ShareAFunds.com:

Funded Phase Trading Rules

1. Single Trade Loss Limit

   • Maximum Loss: A single trade loss cannot exceed 2% of your account equity.
   • Trade Window: Closing two trades within a 4-minute window will be considered a single trade for the purpose of this rule.
   • Breach Policy: Violations of this rule will be considered a soft breach. Traders will receive one warning, and subsequent violations will result in account breach.
     
   • Example: If you take a trade and incur a loss, the maximum allowable loss on that trade is $2,000 (2% of $100,000). If you close two trades within a 4-minute window, their combined loss will also be considered as one trade for this rule.

2. Daily Profit Limit

   • Daily Profit Cap: The profit made in a single trading day must not exceed 2.5% of your account equity.
   • Profit Deduction: Any profit above this limit will be deducted from your funded account balance.
     
   • Example: On a given day, the maximum profit you can make is $2,500 (2.5% of $100,000). If you make $3,000 in profit, $500 will be deducted from your account balance.

3. Profitability Requirement

   • Profitable Days: You must have at least 4 profitable days, with each day showing a minimum profit of 0.5% of your account equity.
     
   • Example: For a $100,000 account, you need to achieve at least $500 in profit on each of 4 separate trading days. If you meet this requirement, you demonstrate consistent profitability.

4. Daily Loss Calculation

   • Loss Calculation: Daily loss equity will be calculated based on the higher value between your account balance or equity.
     
   • Example: If your account equity is $99,000 and your balance is $98,500 at the end of the day, the daily loss will be calculated using the higher value of $99,000. If the maximum allowed daily loss is 3%, you can have a daily loss of up to $3,000 (3% of $99,000).
     
   • Example: If your account equity is $99,000 and your balance is $98,500 at the end of the day, the daily loss will be calculated using the higher value of $99,000. If the maximum allowed daily loss is 6%, you can have a daily loss of up to $6,000 (6% of your 99,000).
