path to funding
Pick the account that fits your trading style. Transparent rules, no hidden fees, and payouts you can trust.
The Profit Target is the required net profit from closed trades on your assigned account and can be reached at any point during the unlimited trading period. To move to the next phase, all open positions must be closed. Example: If you are trading a $100,000 1-Step Challenge, your profit target is $10,000.
At any time during the trading day, the total of your closed trades plus any floating profit or loss from open positions must not exceed the allowed daily loss limit.
The daily loss limit is calculated as the account balance at midnight minus Daily Loss Limit of the initial account balance.
The maximum amount you’re allowed to lose, where the loss limit trails upward as your account grows, but never moves back down.
Daily loss limit is calculated using the higher of your previous trading day’s ending balance or equity. Your Daily Drawdown is a defined static percent. This value sets the reference point for your daily risk limit and helps ensure consistent, responsible risk management.
A trailing drawdown is the maximum amount you’re allowed to lose, where the loss limit trails upward as your account grows, but never moves back down.
You must open at least one position on a minimum of four separate trading days. A trading day is defined as any day in which at least one trade is executed. If a trade remains open across multiple days, only the day the trade is opened counts as a trading day.
Payouts are available 14 days after your first trade, with an optional add-on that allows payouts as early as 7 days.
Traders start with an 80% profit split, with optional add-ons available to increase the split up to 90%.
Trading during news events is allowed. Traders may open and close positions before, during, or after scheduled economic news releases.
Holding positions over the weekend is allowed.
There are no time limits to complete your trading objectives. Trade at your own pace, follow your strategy, and wait for the right market conditions without pressure from countdowns or deadlines.

stories that inspire
I failed two evaluations before finally getting funded. AeroFunded didn’t rush me — they gave me the space to trade my way, and that’s when everything clicked.
Michael Turner
I stopped overtrading once I moved to an unlimited time model. The pressure disappeared, and my performance immediately improved.
Mason Hayes
For the first time, I felt like the rules were built to help traders succeed, not fail. Consistency came naturally when I focused on quality trades.
Ava Morgan
This was the first prop firm experience that felt realistic. It rewarded patience, risk management, and smart decision-making.

Before You Start,
Know the Rules.
It’s a proprietary trading evaluation where you aim to hit a specific profit target (e.g., ~10%) while staying within risk and drawdown limits to unlock a funded trading account.
You trade on a provided account and must reach the profit target without breaching the maximum daily loss or overall drawdown rules. There are no time limits, so you trade at your own pace.
You must respect the daily drawdown limit and maximum drawdown limit — if either is exceeded, the challenge fails. Drawing down too much also impacts your funded account later.
Yes — AeroFunded allows news trading, overnight/weekend holds, and approved Expert Advisors (EAs) so you can trade your strategy within the risk rules.
If you fail to meet the profit target or violate a drawdown rule, you’ll need to retake the challenge to try again — you won’t lose personal capital because this model does not accept deposits.
