How TBM Funded Works

It depends which one you buy. 2-Step: 6% then 6%, minimum 3 trading days. 2-Step Rapid: 9% then 6%, minimum 3 trading days. 1-Step: a single 8% target, minimum 3 trading days. Instant: no profit target — the account is assessed continuously, with no minimum trading days. Clear your targets and we set up your Pro Account.

No — there is no time limit at all, so trade at your own pace. There is a 3-trading-day minimum per phase, which is a floor on activity rather than a deadline: a full 2-Step run needs 6 qualifying days across both phases. (A separate minimum applies before your first payout once you are funded; see the payouts answer.) We'd rather you trade well than trade fast.

You keep up to 90% of what you earn. Choose on-demand (60% Normal / 70% 2-Step Rapid, no fee, request any time) or bi-weekly (80% Normal / 90% 2-Step Rapid, less a 3% processing fee). Minimum payout is $250, measured on your share after the split and before the fee, paid via Rise.

A breach ends that challenge, so it's worth knowing the numbers going in. 2-Step Challenge: 3% daily, 6% max, calculated statically. 2-Step Rapid: 4% daily, 10% max, calculated as a trailing end-of-day figure during the evaluation. 1-Step: 3% daily, 6% max, calculated statically. Instant: 4% daily, 7% max, calculated as a trailing end-of-day figure — there is no evaluation stage, so that limit applies from your first trade. Once you are funded, every product uses the same method: the floor trails your highest end-of-day balance, so it rises as you profit and locks in gains you have already made. It is measured on end-of-day closing balances, not intraday equity. The funded limits are 6% on 2-Step and 1-Step and 7% on 2-Step Rapid and Instant. On Instant the floor never rises above your starting balance — once you are ahead by 7% it locks there, so your original capital can no longer be lost. Accounts opened before 30 August 2026 keep the fixed floor they were sold under. Think of it less as a tripwire and more as the edge of the field you're playing on.

88 symbols across six classes — forex, metals, indices, crypto, US equities and energy — on every account size, at up to 1:100 leverage. Leverage is set per instrument class (forex 1:100, metals and indices 1:30, crypto 1:2, equities and energy 1:10); the full table is on our Trading Rules page. News trading and weekend holding are allowed. No martingale, no grid trading.

Identity verification (KYC) is required right after you pass Step 2 — before your Pro Account and platform credentials are issued. A separate check confirms your payout destination belongs to you, done at the time of your first payout.

After you clear your final phase and complete identity verification, we set up your Pro Account and send your credentials. Your challenge credentials are automatic — those are issued as soon as your payment confirms.

Each account size carries a rank on the TBM ladder: Associate ($3K), Soldier ($5K), Capo ($10K), Mad Men ($25K), Boss ($50K) and Don ($100K). The rank is your account size — bigger account, higher rank. Every Don was once a Soldier. (Not to be confused with the in-portal leaderboard tiers — Silver to Sapphire — which you earn through performance.)

Yes. A breach ends that attempt, not your shot at getting funded. You're welcome to restart whenever you're ready — plenty of funded traders here didn't pass on the first try.
