AquaFunded AquaFutures Instant

Simulated, possibly live later

Evaluation and “funded” accounts are simulated (commissions are deducted from the virtual balance). Traders who e.g. reach reward 5, have significant lifetime rewards or show exceptional performance enter the Live review; the risk team may then offer a Live account with real CME execution. Not guaranteed, cannot be bought. Live: 80% split, daily rewards, no news trading, no hedging.

other basis

only stops the trading day

Fixed dollar amount, soft breach: if balance or equity reaches the limit, all positions are closed and the account is disabled until the next trading day. AquaFutures does not specify the reference (balance or equity, at which time). The tooltips in the aquafunded.com price table instead say a breach ends the account.

25K: USD 1,500 · 50K: USD 2,000 · 100K: USD 3,500 · 150K: USD 4,500 · trailing (end of day)

The floor follows the highest end-of-day balance up and never drops.

Stops: Follows the end-of-day closed balance (no unrealised profit) and becomes static at a level not stated. After any approved payout fixed at starting balance + USD 100.

≤ 20 % · best day ÷ profit since last payout

payout waits until met

The best day must be below 20% of profit in the current payout cycle (equal or more blocks the request); no breach, restarts after each payout. Firm's example: best day USD 1,000 → above USD 5,000 needed. AquaFutures does not say whether losing days reduce the base.

none

No winning days, no fixed schedule.
