Frequently asked questions

A trading challenge on a simulated account. You show you can make a profit while managing risk inside fixed limits. Pass and you trade a Chronos funded account and keep up to 80% of the profit.

The 1-Step has a single phase with a 10% profit target. The 2-Step has two phases with lower targets (8% then 5%). Both use the same 3% daily loss and 5% maximum loss. 1-Step is faster; 2-Step gives you a lower target in each phase.

If you trade aggressively and want funding quickly, the 1-Step. If you prefer steady, smaller gains, the 2-Step: each phase target is easier to reach while the loss limits are the same.

No. There is no maximum number of days. You only need to trade at least 4 days per phase and avoid 30 days of inactivity.

A calendar day (GMT) on which you open or close at least one trade. Days with only open positions and no new trade do not count.

Your account shows “Passed” in the cabinet and trading on it closes. Press “Continue to next phase” and your Phase 2 account is created instantly with fresh login details.

Yes. You can run several evaluations at once. Combined funded capital is limited to $200,000 per trader.

3% of the starting balance, a fixed amount. On a $5,000 account that is $150. Equity (including open positions) may not fall more than this below the balance at the start of the day.

Every day at 00:00 GMT. The new day starts from your balance at that moment.

5% of the starting balance, and it is static: the floor never moves. On a $5,000 account, equity must always stay above $4,750, no matter how much profit you make.

Static. Your maximum loss floor is fixed at the starting balance minus 5%. It does not trail your profits, so every dollar of profit gives you more room.

Equity. Open losing positions count. A limit is breached the moment equity touches it, even if the trade later recovers.

The target is reached on closed profit (balance). Close your trades to lock in the target.

No. There is no rule on how your profit is spread across days.

No fixed lot limit. Your risk is limited by the daily and maximum loss rules and by leverage (1:100).

Yes, opening opposite positions on the same account is allowed. Hedging between different accounts (yours or someone else’s) is not allowed.

Yes. You may copy trades between your own Chronos accounts, follow signal providers and copy group or community trades. The account still has to respect every rule.

Yes. Signal services, trading groups and copy trading are allowed. Remember that a breach caused by a copied trade counts the same as any other breach.
