TL;DR: To secure an 80% Reward Share as a Performance Reward from your $50,000 FundedNext Phase, you need to accumulate at least $500 in total profit and complete 5 "Benchmark Days" (days with at least $200 in profit). You can withdraw up to 50% of your earnings per cycle (minimum $250 & maximum $2,000). Keep in mind that your Maximum Loss Limit (MLL) permanently locks at $50,100 after your first Performance Reward, and your account successfully concludes after its 5th Performance Reward.
What are the exact criteria to qualify for a Performance Reward?
To request your 80% Reward Share at the end of a cycle, you must tick all of the following boxes:
Achieve a minimum of $500 in net profit during the current cycle.
Complete at least 5 Benchmark Days (earning $200+ on 5 separate days).
Performance Reward Limit: A minimum withdrawal of $250, up to a maximum of 50% of your total profit (capped at $2,000).
Example 01:
On your first cycle, you made a $1,000 profit and achieved $200+ in profit on 5 separate trading days.
Net Profit: $1,000 (Meets the minimum $500 requirement)
Benchmark Days: 5 Days (Meets the 5-day minimum)
Profit Cap: $500 (50% of the $1,000 profit)
Withdrawal Limits: $500 is between the $250 minimum and $2,000 maximum limit.
Outcome: Eligible. You can request up to $500. Based on your 80% profit split, you will receive $400 as your performance reward ($500 requested × 80%).
Example 02:
In the next cycle, you made $600 in profit, but you only achieved $200+ in profit on 3 separate trading days.
Net Profit: $600 (Meets the minimum $500 requirement)
Benchmark Days: 3 Days (Fails the requirement of at least 5 Benchmark Days)
Outcome: Not Eligible. Even though you met the total profit threshold, you did not complete the required 5 Benchmark Days. You must complete 2 more Benchmark Days before submitting a request.
Example 03:
In another cycle, you achieved $200+ in profit on 5 separate trading days. However, your total net profit is $400.
Net Profit: $400 (Fails the $500 minimum net profit requirement)
Profit Cap: $200 (50% of $400 net profit)
Withdrawal Limits: $200 is below the minimum $250 withdrawal limit.
Outcome: Not Eligible. You fail both the minimum total profit requirement ($500) and the minimum allowed withdrawal limit ($250).
What is a Benchmark Day and how does it work?
A Benchmark Day is a trading day where you successfully hit a specific minimum profit target based on closed trades, and profit is attributed to the day the trade closes, regardless of when it was opened. Benchmark Day is used to track your eligibility for the Performance Reward.
Requirements: For a $50K account, a Benchmark Day requires a net profit of at least $200 from closed trades.
Challenge Phase vs. FundedNext Phase: There are no Benchmark Day requirements while you are in the Challenge Phase. They only apply once you graduate to the FundedNext Phase.
Withdrawal Requirement: You must complete a minimum of 5 Benchmark Days within a single trading cycle to become eligible for a withdrawal.
Example
Let's break down your closed trades day by day to see which ones qualify as Benchmark Days (Minimum $200 net profit from closed trades):
Days | Closed Trades P&L | Benchmark Day Reached? | Completed Benchmark Days | Benchmark Day Calculation |
Day 1 | +$250
(Trades Opened: 2
Trades Closed: 2) | YES (+$250 > = $200) | 1 | ✅ Day 1 is calculated based on the 2 trades that closed on day 1 with a $250 profit. As $250 is greater than $200, day 1 will be counted as a Benchmark Day. |
Day 2 | +$180
(Trades Opened: 3
Trades Closed: 3)
| NO (+$180 < $200) | 1 | ❌ Day 2 is calculated based on the 3 trades that closed on Day 2 with $180 profit. As $180 is less than $200, day 2 will not be counted as a Benchmark Day. |
Day 3 | +$300
(Trades Opened: 06
Trades Closed Today: 04 Trades Running: 02) | YES (Closed P&L of +$300 >= $200) | 2 | ✅ Day 3 is calculated based on the 4 trades that closed on day 3 with a $300 profit. As $300 is greater than $200, day 3 will be counted as a Benchmark Day. |
Day 4 | $220
(Trades Opened Today: 02
Previous Day Trades Closed: 02
Today's Trades Closed: 04) | YES (Closed P&L of +$220 >= $200) | 3 | ✅ Day 4 is calculated based on the 4 trades that closed on day 4 with a $220 profit. As $220 is greater than $200, day 3 will be counted as a Benchmark Day. |
Are there any Refundable Fees or 15% Reward Share from Challenge Phase?
Refundable Fee Policy: The initial subscription fee for the FNL: 001 NO DLL 1-Step CFDs 50K Challenge Account is non-refundable.
15% Challenge Reward: FundedNext FNL: 001 NO DLL 1-Step CFDs 50K Challenge Account does not offer a 15% Reward Share from the Challenge Phase.
What happens to my account after my first Performance Reward?
The MLL Lock: The moment you receive your first successful Performance Reward, your Maximum Loss Limit (MLL) permanently hard-locks at $50,100 (your starting account balance + $100). Your account balance can never drop below this floor for the remaining life of the account.
Account Conclusion: Each account has a lifetime limit of 5 total withdrawals. After your 5th Performance Reward is processed, the account is officially concluded and closed.
Are there strict trading rules on the FundedNext Phase?
Consistency Rule: There is no consistency rule in the FundedNext Phase (unlike the Challenge Phase), meaning you don't have to worry about a single big day scaling your profit targets.
News Trading: Fully allowed, though profits earned directly from high-impact news events cannot make up more than 40% of your total returns.
Overnight & Weekend Holding: Fully allowed. You can leave positions open through market closes and weekends.
