Consistency Rules
- Traders must manage risk to stay within defined daily and maximum drawdown limits; exceeding any drawdown limit results in immediate account failure or termination.
- No minimum trading days on standard challenges, but traders are expected to demonstrate disciplined and consistent trading rather than highly volatile strategies.
- On Rapid and Instant Funding challenges, tighter drawdown or trailing drawdown structures effectively enforce consistent intraday risk control.
- The firm encourages long-term sustainable performance over aggressive short-term gains by combining static drawdown on challenges with trailing drawdown on Instant Funding.
Firm Rules
- DNA Funded is a forex prop trading firm that offers several funding models designed for both beginners and experienced traders. The firm focuses on strict risk management, consistency, and controlled drawdown rules.
- 🔹 1. 2-Phase Challenge (Standard Model)
- This is the most common evaluation model:
- Phase 1 profit target: 8%
- Phase 2 profit target: 5%
- Maximum daily loss: 5%
- Maximum total drawdown: 8% (static)
- Minimum trading days: 5 days
- Leverage: 1:50
- Traders must complete both phases without breaching drawdown limits.
- 🔹 2. 1-Phase Challenge
- Faster evaluation route:
- Profit target: around 5%–8% depending on model
- Daily loss limit: 3%–5%
- Maximum drawdown: 5%–6%
- Minimum trading days: 5 days
- This model is designed for traders who want a quicker path to funding.
- 🔹 3. Rapid Challenge
- A simplified model with tighter rules:
- Similar profit targets as 1-phase
- Static drawdown system
- Faster evaluation completion
- Stricter risk conditions compared to standard models
- 🔹 4. Instant Funding Account
- Skip evaluation entirely:
- Trailing drawdown: around 4%
- No daily drawdown rule applies
- Immediate access to funded account
- EA trading is not allowed in this model
- 🔹 General Trading Rules
- Daily drawdown is balance-based and resets daily
- Total drawdown is static for evaluation accounts
- Breaching drawdown limits results in account termination
- Minimum activity required (at least one trade every 30 days)
- Prohibited strategies include:
- Martingale, grid, arbitrage
- High-frequency trading
- Hedging and copy trading across accounts
Payout Policy
- DNA Funded offers a structured payout system designed to reward disciplined traders while maintaining strict risk controls.
- The standard profit split is 80%, with an option to upgrade to 90% through add-ones . Traders can request payouts once they meet funded account requirements, including completing minimum trading days and maintaining compliance with all rules.
- The firm typically operates on a 14-day payout cycle, meaning traders can request withdrawals every two weeks. Some add-ons allow weekly payouts (7 days) for faster access to profits .
- A key feature is the 5% profit cap on the first three payouts. This means:
- Traders can only withdraw up to 5% of the starting balance per payout
- Any excess profits are removed during account reset
- After three successful payouts, the cap is lifted
- DNA Funded also applies a profit distribution rule, limiting how much of the payout can come from a single trading day:
- Around 30%–40% per day depending on account version
- This rule prevents traders from relying on one large trade for payouts.
- Minimum withdrawal amount is $100 after profit split, and payouts are processed via:
- Cryptocurrency (USDT, BTC, etc.)
- International bank transfer
- Processing time is typically:
- 1–4 business days for approval
- Additional 1–2 days for payment delivery
- To qualify for payouts, traders must:
- Follow all drawdown rules
- Meet minimum trading day requirements
- Maintain consistent trading behavior
- Avoid prohibited strategies
- Overall, DNA Funded’s payout system is flexible but rule-based, rewarding traders who focus on steady performance rather than high-risk trading.
