FPT offers individuals aged 18 and over the chance to trade on a profit sharing account. By passing the FPT evaluation, which includes demonstrating profitability and responsible risk management, you become eligible to trade an Earnings account and receive a 90% share of the profits.

Becoming a successful trader is a challenge. It takes a lot of time and effort to develop your skills, study the market and practice good risk management. One of the biggest obstacles for profitable traders is having sufficient capital in their trading accounts. As a profit share trader with FPT, you keep 90% of the profits. For example, if your trading skills resulted in a 30% return in month but you only have $2,000 to invest, the return may not be worth your time. However, with access to an earnings account worth up to $200,000, a 30% return, where you keep 90%, would be a much more substantial return on effort. Trading carries risk and even profitable traders experience periods of breaking even or incurring losses. One advantage with trading with FPT is all evaluations and profit sharing earning accounts are traded with real live market pricing from institutional liquidity providers with virtual funds on simulated accounts. Therefore, you will never be responsible for any losses that you may otherwise have had from you own funded trading accounts, but enjoy 90% of the profits you make. In addition to the opportunity of trading with FPTs accounts, we also enhance your trading experience by implementing simple trading rules that promote effective risk management. To further assist you, FPT provide you with your own trading dashboard that gives you access to many beneficial trading tools, such as signals, calendars, currency strength indicators, heat maps, and much more.

To become a funded trader, the initial step is to select the assessment tier that suits you and complete the FPT Audition. This audition evaluates your trading skills, risk management, and profitability. Once you pass the audition, you will be provided with a funded account. It's as simple as that.

We determine the daily loss limit based on the end-of-day Equity from the previous day. For example, if your Equity at the end of the prior day was $100,000, your account would reach the loss limit when your equity dropped to $95,000 during that day. Moreover, our daily stop out level is calculated as a percentage, rather than a fixed amount. This means that as your account Equity grows, your daily stop loss level widens accordingly. For instance, if you started with a $100,000 Equity and grew it to $110,000, your daily stop out level would increase to $5,500 from $5,000. Please keep in mind that all accounts are subject to the rules governing daily loss limits and maximum trailing drawdowns that were in effect at the time of purchase. Any subsequent changes to these rules will not be retroactively applied to previously purchased accounts.

Yes, you have the flexibility to trade whenever our markets are open.

Yes, you have the option to keep trades open overnight and throughout the weekend. However, please note that leverage may be adjusted during more volatile periods.

It is your responsibility to comply with all relevant tax obligations in your country or region.

You will have the identical live account balance that you selected during the FPT Audition. Once you successfully pass the audition and your results are verified, you will receive credentials to access a profit-sharing account. In this account, you are entitled to keep up to 90% of the profits you generate.

The association between a trader and FPT is established through a contractual agreement agreed upon by you when you sign up for your audition. This agreement is legally binding for both parties.

Traders will be granted access to the MT5 trading platform.

The profit-sharing account dashboards provide various metrics such as the daily loss limit, profit target, maximum loss limit, equity, balance, monthly return, and projected annual return. Additionally, you will have access to a detailed account history that includes all executed trades.

No, there are no hidden fees. The only cost you will encounter is the one-time fee for the FPT Audition. There are no monthly fees that you have to pay repeatedly.

Traders can have multiple profit-sharing accounts with a total funding limit of $600,000. However, they are limited to one account per Audition tier. For instance, if you are currently trading a $100,000 account and want to trade with more capital, you can apply for a $50,000 account by completing a $50,000 FPT Audition.

Shortly after purchasing an Audition, you will receive an email containing your account credentials and a link to download the platform.

We welcome payment by major credit cards, debit cards, direct wire transfers, crypto, and Apple Pay.

The fee serves multiple purposes. Firstly, it covers essential expenses for FPT, including technology, personnel, customer service, and marketing. This helps ensure the company's functionality. Secondly, the fee acts as a commitment from traders, motivating them to engage in responsible and disciplined trading practices. It signifies their dedication to the process and incentivizes them to treat their accounts with care. Crucially, the fee is modest in comparison to the substantial value added by gaining access to a profit-shared account. Any losses incurred on the profit-shared accounts are covered by FPT, so traders cannot lose more than the fee they paid. The Audition fee also functions as a filter, attracting serious and responsible traders to the FPT community. This ensures that the community is composed of experienced traders who consistently generate profits. Ultimately, the fee accurately reflects the value and benefits of the FPT program, fostering a mutually beneficial relationship between FPT and traders.

All account types are traded with virtual funds on demo accounts. FPT may at their discretion copy trades to the live market for hedging purposes.

On our platform it is important to note that you are not allowed to take opposite positions on single accounts or multiple accounts, whether it's during the evaluation phase or on a live account. Engaging in such activity is considered cheating, and the account will be terminated as a result. To provide an example, taking a long position on EUR/USD in one account and a short position on EUR/USD in another account is not permitted. Also, taking a long position on EUR/USD and a short position on EUR/USD in the same account is also not permitted. This practice is commonly referred to as 'grid trading' or ‘hedging’

We have secured competitive spreads through our broker, ECG Broker. There are no additional fees for data. There are no trading commissions to be paid. You won't incur any costs due to slippage during trade execution.

Copying trades from another evaluation account or any external account, with the intention of passing the evaluation, is strictly prohibited.

All traders with profit-sharing account operate as independent contractors for FPT. Prior to the allocation of the profit-sharing account, you will be required to sign a service agreement.

It is permissible for US citizens to trade in FPT's profit-sharing markets. Profit-sharing activities are not regulated by the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). While US citizens are prohibited from opening CFD trading accounts using their own funds, and US brokers are not permitted to offer CFD accounts directly to US citizens, FPT does not enable US citizens to open and fund CFD accounts themselves to comply with regulations. FPT operates as a company that offers the opportunity to pass a trading test through its two-phase evaluation programs. The evaluation is conducted on a trading platform connected to CFD markets. Traders do not invest their own money in trading these CFD markets nor do they open CFD accounts. US citizens can purchase the opportunity to pass the trading tests without violating SEC regulations. Upon successfully passing the test, traders are granted access to a FPT profit-sharing account that contains virtual funds and provides access to CFD markets. This account is owned by FPT, not the trader. Traders function as contractors for FPT and receive compensation based on the profits earned in the virtual funds account. They do not trade or have ownership of a CFD account funded with their own money. In both evaluation and profit-sharing trading scenarios, the trader's personal funds are not invested in the CFD markets. Therefore, these trades are not subject to SEC regulation. The client-broker relationship for the profit-sharing accounts exists between FPT and ECG Broker, the broker. We prioritize compliance with the regulations of ECG Broker since it is only our company's funds that may be invested in the broker trading accounts. FPT serves as the investor in this context.

No, FPT is not a broker. FPT operates as a proprietary trading company and does not accept deposits from traders to trade their own funds. Traders do not have any capital at risk and bear no responsibility for losses on profit-sharing accounts.

The trading rules for the profit-sharing account are similar to those during the evaluation phase. It is important to review the profit-sharing Account section in the help center for additional details. The risk parameters remain consistent for both the evaluation phase and the profit-sharing account. The only rule that is no longer applicable is the profit target rule.

Phase 1 requires a total profit target of 8%, while Phase 2 requires a total profit target of 5%. These targets are based on the initial starting Equity of the account. For example, if the starting Equity is $100,000, the Phase 1 profit target is $8,000. (8%)

The daily loss limit is determined by calculating 5% of the starting equity at the close of the daily candle on broker time (00:00 UTC). Let's consider an example to illustrate this calculation: Starting equity: $100,000 Equity at the close of the daily candle: $101,000 In this case, the maximum daily risk for the following day would be 5% of the starting equity ($100,000), which amounts to $5,000. This means that the minimum equity required to maintain compliance with the daily loss limit is $95,000. It's important to note that the open equity (e.g., a floating profit or loss) carried over from the previous trading day is not factored into the calculation of the daily loss limit. For instance, even if the equity is $101,000 due to a floating profit of $1,000, the minimum equity requirement remains at $95,000. This implies that you can theoretically experience a loss of $6,000 on that day, considering the floating unrealized profit and loss. Alternatively, if the equity at the close of the daily candle is $99,000, the maximum daily risk would still be 5% of the starting balance ($100,000), resulting in a maximum daily loss of $5,000. However, if there is an open trade with a floating loss of $1,000, the maximum daily loss would decrease to $4,000 while the minimum equity requirement remains at $95,000. This calculation ensures that traders adhere to the daily loss limit and manage their risk effectively during trading activities.

Phase 1 requires a minimum of 5 trading days. Phase 2 also requires a minimum of 5 trading days.

The evaluation period for phrase 1 and phase 2 does not have a time limit.
