TLDR: To pass a Futures Challenge, you must meet the profit target and follow all trading rules. Rules vary by challenge type: Rapid Challenge has no daily loss limits or consistency rule, while Legacy Challenge includes stricter requirements like daily loss limits and the Consistency Rule.
The FundedNext Futures Challenge evaluates a trader’s ability to manage risk while earning consistent profits in a simulated futures trading environment. To succeed, traders must reach specific profit targets while respecting risk management rules.
Depending on the chosen model, Rapid Challenge or Legacy Challenge, the rules and restrictions differ. Below is a full breakdown of what you must achieve in each type.
Rapid Challenge – Requirements
The Rapid Challenge offers greater flexibility and lighter restrictions, making it easier for new traders to get started.
No Consistency Rule:
Consistency rule does not apply.
You can meet the profit target in a single day or spread it across multiple days—the choice depends on your trading style.
Profit Target:
You must achieve a fixed profit target based on your account size.
Example: $3,000 for a $50,000 Rapid Challenge.
No Daily Loss Limit:
No daily loss limits are enforced, giving you more flexibility in trade management.
However, the maximum loss limit still applies to safeguard overall risk.
Trading Rules:
All restricted strategies remain prohibited to ensure responsible practices.
Legacy Challenge – Requirements
The Legacy Challenge enforces stricter rules, designed for traders who want more structure and higher Rewards.
Consistency Rule:
You must follow the Consistency Rule throughout.
Daily profit cannot exceed 40% of your total profit target, ensuring a steady and systematic approach.
Profit Target:
You must meet the set profit target based on your account size.
Example: $2,500 for a $50,000 Legacy Challenge.
Daily & Maximum Loss Limits:
Losses must remain within the defined daily loss limits and maximum loss limit.
Exceeding these limits results in a breach of your challenge.
Trading Rules:
You must follow all restricted strategy rules to maintain disciplined and ethical trading.
Transition After Passing the Challenge
Once you successfully pass either the Rapid or Legacy Challenge, you’ll receive a FundedNext Account, where you can trade and withdraw Performance Rewards.
Here’s how the transition works:
After meeting all challenge criteria, wait until the trading day ends.
At day’s end, your challenge will be paused and moved to the Inactive Account section.
You will then be prompted to sign the agreement.
After signing, you can no longer trade in your challenge or reset it.
Your account will transition smoothly into a FundedNext Account for real rewards.

Futures Rapid Challenge: Flexible, lighter restrictions, no daily loss limit or consistency rule—great for traders who want speed and freedom.
Futures Legacy Challenge: More structured and systematic with rules like the daily loss limit and the Consistency Rule—designed for disciplined, long-term growth.
Passing a Futures Challenge ensures you prove risk management skills, achieve profitability, and qualify for a FundedNext Account with real rewards.
