Challenge rules

The Rules — full ruleset

You trade manually on your MT5 platform with PU Prime. Our platform monitors your Myfxbook portfolio in real time and enforces the rules below. Breaching any hard rule automatically fails the account.

Core risk rules

Daily drawdown rule

Max 5% equity drop from the daily starting balance (00:00 server time). Includes floating PnL.

Max drawdown rule

Max 10% drop from the initial balance at any point. Static — does not trail.

Profit target rule

10% in Phase 1, 5% in Phase 2. Funded accounts have no profit target.

Consistency rule

40% consistency rule

No single trade or trading day may contribute more than 40% of the required profit target. In Phase 1 the limit is 4% of the initial balance per trade/day. In Phase 2 the limit is 2% of the initial balance per trade/day. Demo accounts follow Phase 1 consistency limits.
