FundingPips vs MyFundedFutures
Which of these two is likelier to end your account, and why — compared rule by rule from what each firm publishes.
Short answer
- The drawdown works differently, and that is the difference that matters. FundingPips' loss limit is fixed to your starting balance and never moves; MyFundedFutures' follows your equity tick by tick, unrealised profit included. MyFundedFutures: Open profit you give back raises that floor permanently, so it can breach you at a level that did not exist an hour earlier.
- MyFundedFutures sets no daily loss limit; FundingPips caps a single day at 5%.
- Minimum trading days: FundingPips no minimum, MyFundedFutures 1 day — this sets the earliest you can finish, however fast you hit the target.
- Overnight and weekend: FundingPips lets you hold; MyFundedFutures requires you flat before the session closes, so a swing plan does not fit it.
- Entry cost: FundingPips from $32, MyFundedFutures from $50.

| Evaluation Parameter | FundingPips | MyFundedFutures |
|---|---|---|
| Asset Class / Market | MULTI-ASSET | FUTURES |
| Drawdown Calculation Type | Static Balance-Based | Intraday Trailing (Equity High-Water Mark) once funded Pro trails end-of-day in both stages and Builder's floor stops moving once it reaches $0 on the live account, but the firm counts open unrealised losses toward a breach even in the stages it labels end-of-day. On Rapid the max-loss line chases your live equity high, unrealised profit included, once you are funded; during the evaluation it only moves at the close. |
| Max Daily Loss | 5.0% | None (No Daily Limit) |
| Max Overall Loss | 10.0% | 4.0% 4% is the $25K and $50K accounts ($1,000 and $2,000); the $100K and $150K accounts stop at $3,000 and $4,500, which is 3%. |
| Profit Split | 80% - 90% | 90% - 100% |

| Supported Platforms | cTrader, Match-Trader, TradeLocker | Tradovate, TradingView, NinjaTrader, Quantower, Fintevo, Deep Chart |
| Payout Schedule | Weekly payouts (Every 7 calendar days) | Daily — every 24 hours once funded and above the buffer Rapid pays out every qualifying trading day; Pro pays bi-weekly and Builder every 48 hours while sim-funded, daily once live. |

What can end the account even if you are profitable
These are the rules people usually find out about after a payout is refused.
- MyFundedFutures: Once you are funded on Rapid or Pro you may not hold a position or leave any order sitting in the market, resting limit orders included, from two minutes before a Tier-1 release to two minutes after it — FOMC meetings and minutes, the Employment Report and CPI, plus EIA numbers for energy traders and the Agricultural reports for grain traders — so a release at 8:30 means flat by 8:28:00 and nothing back on until 8:32:00; the same trade is allowed on evaluations and on Builder accounts, and the firm's page states the ban without spelling out the penalty. source
- MyFundedFutures: You may not copy another trader by entering, exiting or cancelling positions in step with them, the way signal and mentorship groups often do, and the firm can permanently bar you from its services for it rather than just voiding the trades. source
- MyFundedFutures: You may not hold a buy and a sell on the same underlying market at the same time — being long Micro Nasdaq while short E-mini Nasdaq counts as the same market — and the firm treats it as a fair-play violation that can end your agreement and confiscate your profits. source
- MyFundedFutures: High-frequency trading is banned on every plan with no published speed or frequency threshold to measure yourself against, and being flagged for it can terminate your agreement, confiscate your profits and fail your evaluation. source
- MyFundedFutures: You must trade from a device no other trader uses — a mentor and student sharing one laptop, phone or tablet breaks the rule — and it is treated as a prohibited practice that can permanently restrict the accounts involved. source
- MyFundedFutures: If an order is rejected around the 4:10 PM EST close, do not keep resubmitting it: one of those retries occasionally fills after the close, and the firm disqualifies the account for it even though you never meant to trade late. source
- MyFundedFutures: On holiday-shortened trading days the automatic 4:10 PM EST flatten does not run, so you have to close your own positions before the early close or the account is breached. source
- MyFundedFutures: On the Builder plan you cannot request your first payout until you have cleared the buffer ($2,100, or $1,600 with the add-on, on the $50K account), traded on at least 2 qualifying days, and banked at least $500 of net profit on top of that buffer ($250 on the $25K account) — there is no fixed date at which it simply becomes available. source
Drawdown Architecture: FundingPips vs MyFundedFutures

FundingPips: Static Balance-Based
FundingPips applies a Static Balance-Based approach. Under this structure, your stop loss floor is anchored to balance intervals. This ensures that temporary floating open profits do not pull your stop loss floor higher in real-time.
MyFundedFutures: Intraday Trailing (Equity High-Water Mark) once funded
MyFundedFutures implements a Intraday Trailing (Equity High-Water Mark) once funded model. Open equity peaks will instantly adjust your maximum loss threshold tick-by-tick.
