Scaling Plan

Currently, Funding Frontier does not offer a scaling plan. Traders will need to complete the challenges and manage their accounts accordingly, but there's no additional scaling opportunity to grow account size beyond what's provided.

Spreads and News Trading Rules

Spreads:

Funding Frontier offers competitive spreads, usually less than 1 pip during normal market conditions for most forex pairs and gold. However, traders should be aware that spreads may widen during high-impact news events or periods of volatility.

News Trading Rules:

• During the evaluation phases, traders are allowed to trade freely during all news releases.
• Once traders become funded, they must refrain from executing new trades or closing existing ones 5 minutes before and after high-impact news events. Holding trades opened more than 5 minutes before the event is permitted.

Other Important Rules

Daily Drawdown Calculation

Funding Frontier calculates the daily loss limit based on the trader’s previous end-of-day balance. Do keep in mind that the drawdown recalculated based on equity based drawdown which means the drawdown amount will increase or decrease as the account progresses.

Countries Banned from Purchasing

Currently, Funding Frontier does not accept traders from Syria, North Korea, Cuba, or Iran due to regulatory restrictions.

Gambling Rules

Funding Frontier emphasizes responsible trading. Traders exhibiting gambling behavior—trading driven by emotions rather than rational analysis—can have their funded accounts terminated. The firm enforces a 3% maximum loss rule on funded accounts, and splitting trades into multiple positions will count as a single trade.

However, multiple IP logins are closely monitored by the Funding Frontier risk management team. Any suspicious activity, especially involving multiple IP addresses, may lead to a breach of the terms and conditions, which could result in the account being flagged or terminated.
