Deep Funded is a proprietary trading firm that provides skilled traders with access to real capital. Instead of risking your own money, you trade our funds and keep up to 80% of the profits you generate. We evaluate traders through a structured challenge process to ensure they have the consistency and discipline required to manage our capital responsibly.

Yes. Deep Funded operates as a legitimate proprietary trading firm. We are transparent about our rules, profit splits, and evaluation criteria. As we are a newer firm, we are actively building our track record and welcome any questions or concerns — you can always reach us directly at [email protected].

You do not need formal qualifications, but you do need to demonstrate trading skill through our evaluation. The challenge is designed to filter for consistent, disciplined traders. If you can meet the profit targets while staying within the drawdown rules, you qualify — regardless of your background.

The 2-Step Challenge requires you to hit a profit target across two phases before receiving funding. It is the most accessible entry point and has lower profit targets per phase. The 1-Step Challenge condenses the evaluation into a single phase with a slightly higher profit target, making it faster but more demanding. Both lead to the same funded account and 80% profit split.

Direct Funding allows you to skip the challenge entirely and receive a funded account immediately after purchase. It has stricter ongoing rules such as tighter consistency requirements, but is ideal for experienced traders who want to start generating profits right away without going through an evaluation phase.

Yes, technically — there is no maximum time limit on the challenge. However, there is a minimum trading days requirement of 5 days per phase. This means you must be active across at least 5 separate trading days, but you are not required to trade every day and there is no deadline to finish.

The Consistency Rule means that no single trading day can account for more than the stated percentage of your total profits. For example, with a ≤45% consistency rule on a $10,000 profit target, no single day can make up more than $4,500 of your gains. This rule is designed to prevent lucky single-day spikes and encourage consistent, repeatable trading performance.

If you breach the maximum loss or daily loss limits, your challenge or funded account will be closed. You will need to purchase a new evaluation to try again. This is standard across all prop firms and exists to protect both parties. We strongly recommend using proper risk management and never risking more than 1–2% per trade.

We do not restrict specific strategies such as scalping, swing trading, or news trading. However, you must trade within the defined risk parameters at all times. Strategies that involve holding positions over weekends, trading during major news events at extreme sizes, or exploiting platform latency may be reviewed on a case-by-case basis.

Once you are funded, 80% of every profit you generate belongs to you. For example, if your funded account makes $5,000 in profit, you receive $4,000 and Deep Funded retains $1,000. Payouts are processed upon request once you meet the minimum withdrawal threshold. There are no hidden fees deducted from your share.

Payout details and processing times will be communicated at the time of funding. We are actively setting up our payout infrastructure and aim to make the process as smooth as possible. If you have specific questions about payouts before purchasing, please contact us at [email protected].

Challenge fees are non-refundable once the evaluation has started. However, many prop firms — including Deep Funded — return the evaluation fee with your first profit withdrawal once you are successfully funded. Further details on this will be confirmed at the time of your first payout.

Platform details will be confirmed upon purchase of an evaluation. We are in the process of finalising our broker and platform partnerships. If you have a preferred platform, feel free to mention it when contacting us at [email protected] and we will do our best to accommodate.

Supported instruments will be listed clearly on your account upon funding. Generally, prop firms support forex pairs, indices, commodities, and sometimes crypto. Full details will be provided in your account dashboard after evaluation.

Yes, you can purchase and run multiple evaluations simultaneously. Each account is tracked independently. There is no limit on how many challenges you can take at once, though each requires a separate fee.

As a new firm, we take every issue seriously and respond personally. Please email us at [email protected] with a description of your issue and your account details. We aim to respond within 24 hours. Your experience matters to us and we are committed to resolving any problems quickly.
