Forex prop firm· review & rules
The prop arm of broker ATFX (registered in St. Vincent & the Grenadines). As of mid-2026 ATFunded has PAUSED operations pending a review — the site is in MT5 close-only mode, with full refunds promised to active customers. The pre-pause rules below are historical: a 2-Phase challenge (8%/5%) and a 1-Step Pro (6%), a ±5-minute high-impact news ban, and a split capped at 80%.
ATFX-backed and broker-affiliated, but as of mid-2026 the firm has paused operations under review — treat all specs as historical and do not buy a new challenge until it resumes.
Pros
Watch out
Best for: Nobody right now — the firm is paused. Historically, broker-aligned traders who wanted an ATFX-backed evaluation with weekend holding.
Bottom line: Paused and under review as of June 2026 — wait for confirmation it has resumed (and that refunds/payouts were honored) before considering it.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2-Phase Challenge | 2-Step | 10% static | 4% | 8% → 5% | 3 |

ATFunded announced a pause of operations pending a full review. The site serves a close-only notice (MT5 set to close-only, positions to be closed), promises full refunds to active customers and payouts to eligible funded traders. The CEO departed in early 2026. Continued operation is uncertain.
Gotcha: Do not buy a new challenge while paused — refund and payout fulfillment is promised but unproven.
2-Phase: 10% static, measured from the initial balance (balance-based, does not trail). Pro Program: a trailing max drawdown with no separate daily limit — sources conflict on the figure (3% vs 10% trailing).
2-Phase: 4% of the starting balance, measured from the balance at 00:00 server time and reset daily. The Pro Program had no daily drawdown (trailing max only).
The 2-Phase eval had no consistency rule; on the funded account a best day ≤ 50% of current profit was enforced at payout (payout withheld, not voided). The Pro Program used a 30% Phase-1 rule that recalculated the target upward if exceeded (a soft cap, not a fail).
Opening or closing positions within a 5-minute window before and after any high-impact economic announcement was prohibited, on both evaluation and funded accounts.
Weekend and overnight holding were permitted.
Your own/original EAs and personal trade copiers (your own accounts) were allowed. Copying signals/trades from external sources, HFT bots, tick scalping and latency arbitrage were prohibited. A sanctioned ATFunded+ program let funded traders earn 20% of follower profits.
Prohibited: HFT, tick scalping, latency arbitrage, external copy/signal copying, and group/reverse hedging across accounts or firms. Hedging within a single account was allowed.
2-Phase paid 80% from day one; Pro paid 50% for the first two payouts then 80% from the third. First payout 30 days after the first funded trade, then bi-weekly (every 14 days). Minimum payout $100 (2-Phase) / $125 (Pro), minimum 5 trades. KYC (ID + face + proof of address) required before the first payout. NOTE: the firm is currently paused — payouts are being handled under the wind-down notice.
Gotcha: All payout mechanics are suspended during the pause — refunds/payouts are promised but not yet proven.
