Prop trading (short for proprietary trading) is when you trade with funds provided by a company. At Volt Funded, you bring the strategy, and we provide the tools, platform,and risk limits. We back your trading skills with our own capital and once you pass an evaluation Challenge, we could offer you a Funded account where you get to keep 90% of the profits!
Retail trading involves using your own funds on your own brokerage account, meaning your potential returns are limited by your own personal capital. Prop trading removes this limitation. With a prop trading firm like Volt Funded:
The prop trading model is designed to give skilled and talented traders access to significant resources and capital, that they may not necessarily have in their personal capacity.
To open a Volt Funded account, you need to accept the general Terms and Conditions.This allows you to complete evaluation Challenges.
If we offer you a Funded account, we ask you to sign a Trader Agreement to keep everything fair and clear. It sets out your risk limits, payout schedule, platform access, and house rules so there are no surprises, only clarity.
You need to over 18 years old to use Volt Funded and become a prop trader.
It’s possible to earn a living through prop trading if you build consistency. While results will always vary and no income is guaranteed, many traders use Funded accounts to create a meaningful, growing stream of payouts. Our role is to equip you with the tools, platform, support, and capital to pursue that goal. Your earning potential grows with your strategy, your discipline, and your success.
With a Funded account from Volt Funded, there is no set limit on earnings. Earning potential is limited only by the prop trader’s strategy and success. Smart traders focus on risk management and steady growth to protect the account and maintain company funding.
A Challenge is an evaluation where we can assess your trading consistency and risk control. You will need to be successful trading within a clear set of rules to prove your discipline and ability.
On Volt Funded, you can choose between the 1V (One-phase) Challenge and the 2V(Two-phase) Challenge.
During a Challenge, your goal is to pass the set number of phases by reaching profit targets while following the prescribed trading rules. These include, for example a minimum number of trading days, maximum daily and overall drawdowns, and restrictions on news trading.
If you break any of the rules, your account may be suspended or closed, and you could fail the Challenge. If you pass the Challenge, we will review your account and may offer you a Funded account.
A Funded account is an account given to you and funded with our own capital. Similar to the evaluation Challenges, there are certain trading rules you need to abide by with a Funded account and breaking these may result in a cancellation of your account.
With a Funded account, there is no set profit target. You keep 90% of any profits you generate, while Volt Funded receives the remaining 10%.
You may be offered a Funded account once you have passed an evaluation Challenge and we have reviewed your account. To accept the Funded account, you would need to sign a trader agreement with Volt Funded. You will also need to complete ID verification to withdraw any funds.

Prop trading can be a great opportunity for some traders and have a number of advantages.
Compared to retail trading, prop trading reduces your financial risk as you are not trading your personal capital. However, all trading has risk, and these are the key prop trading risks to consider:
The key is discipline. With proper risk management, prop trading may be considered less risky than trading with your own funds.
Prop trading is a great fit for:

Yes. Each Challenge type and plan has its own entry fee. You can view these on the Challenge Plan Table.
This fee covers:
The Volt Funded 1V One-Phase Challenge is an evaluation, where you must pass a single phase, trading with a set of rules, before potentially being offered a Funded account. You choose your level of capital from $2,500 to $100,000 and pay the applicable activation fee to start the Challenge.
How it works

The Volt Funded 2V Two-Phase Challenge is an evaluation, where you must pass two consecutive steps, trading with a set of rules, before potentially being offered a Funded account. You choose your level of capital from $2,500 to $100,000 and pay the applicable activation fee to start the Challenge.
How it works
Phase 1
Phase 2
If you are offered and accept a Funded account, you will:
Yes, you are allowed to enter multiple Challenges at the same time, however, the maximum capital allocation allowed for Funded accounts is $200,000. This means that no matter how many Challenges you pass, the maximum capital you will ever have awarded in Funded accounts is $200,000.
In a case where you pass multiple Challenges and the total capital exceeds $200,000, the excess amount may be issued to you if a Funded account is closed and your total capital decreases. In this instance, we would issue an amount from your excess to a maximum allocation of $200,000 across Funded accounts.
No, you will have to purchase a new Challenge.
Funded accounts are issued within 2 business days, after results in Challenge phase are reviewed and verified.

Your profit target is determined by your choice of evaluation Challenge.
1V One-Phase Challenge:
2V Two-Phase Challenge:
Funded account:
There is no time limit to complete a phase. You can take as long as you need to reach your profit target, allowing you to trade at your own pace without pressure or deadlines.
No, there is no time limit. Volt Funded Challenges are designed for flexibility. You can trade without rushing or overtrading. Simply follow your strategy until you reach the profit target.
While there is no time limit to reach the profit target, please be aware that your account will be closed if you have 30 (thirty) consecutive days of no trading activity.
We require a minimum of 5 trading days, where a trading day means you have opened at least one position.
Maximum drawdown limits are static, meaning they are based on the starting balance of the account.
The maximum daily drawdown limit is calculated on equity, being your account balance+ floating P&L (unrealised profits and loss) at the beginning of each trading day, 00:00EET (UTC+2) / EEST (UTC+3).
The maximum overall drawdown limit is based on your starting balance (your chosen capital) of the Challenge.
The daily drawdown limit is the maximum amount of loss you can incur in a single trading day. This includes closed losses, floating (unrealised) losses, swap fees, and commission charges.
As long as your combined losses do not exceed the daily drawdown limit specified for the account, your account remains active. Once the limit is breached, the Challenge orFunded account is automatically closed.
Daily drawdown limits reset every day at 00:00 EET (UTC+2) / EEST (UTC+3), giving you a fresh start and ensuring discipline throughout the evaluation.
Your maximum daily drawdown limit is dependent on whether you entered or completed a 1V One-Phase Challenge or a 2V Two-Phase Challenge.
The daily drawdown limit resets at 00:00 EET (UTC+2) / EEST (UTC+3). At this moment, your daily drawdown limit refreshes, giving you a new trading day with a clean drawdown limit.
The maximum overall drawdown allowed is the total amount your account is allowed to lose from the starting balance at any time for the lifetime of the account.
For 1V One-Phase Challenge:
For 2V Two-Phase Challenge:
An account will be considered failed if the overall equity or balance ever falls below this threshold.
Volt Funded uses two types of drawdown limits:
Understanding both is key to managing risk and avoiding a breach, which would break the trading rules, and your account would be closed.
Calculating maximum daily drawdown (DD) in dollars
Your maximum daily DD ($) is calculated based on your equity, being your account balance + floating P&L (unrealised profits and loss) at the beginning of each trading day, 00:00 EET (UTC+2) / EEST (UTC+3).
The formula you can use to calculate the amount is:
Maximum daily drawdown ($) = Starting day equity - Daily DD ($)
For example, if you selected a 2V Two-Phase Challenge, the daily DD limit is 4%. If you have a starting balance of $10,000, this means your daily DD limit will be a static $400 per day. It does not change based on your current balance. For our example and calculation, we will imagine that you have an open position sitting at a loss of $200 at the daily reset time, 00:00 EET (UTC+2) / EEST (UTC+3).
Open P&L at start of day: –$200
Starting day equity = Starting balance + Open P&L
= $10,000 - $200 = $9,800
Now we can use the starting day equity ($) to determine what $ value would be the maximum drawdown you would be allowed for the day (the floor), before breaching the limits.
Daily DD ($) = Starting day equity ($) × Daily DD ($)
Daily DD ($) = $9,800 - $400
Your equity floor for the day (the lowest you can go to without breaching the limit) is $9,800 – $400 = $9,400
This means that if your equity touches $9,400 at any time during the day, you breach the daily DD limit, and your account will be closed.
Calculating maximum overall drawdown (DD)
Because Volt Funded use a static overall DD, your floor is calculated from your initial starting balance (your capital plan amount), and it does not change with any profits or losses made intraday.
The formula you can use to calculate the amount is:
Overall DD ($) = Starting balance ($) x Overall DD (%)
For example, if you selected a 2V Two-Phase Challenge, the overall DD limit is 10%. If you chose the $10,000 capital plan, then your maximum overall DD calculation will look like this:
Overall DD ($) = Starting balance ($) × Overall DD (%)
Starting balance: $10,000
Overall DD %: 10%
Overall DD $: $10,000 × 10% = $1,000
Your overall equity floor (the lowest you can go to without breaching the limit) is$10,000 – $1,000 = $9,000
This means that if your equity touches $9,000 at any time during the lifetime of your account, you breach the overall DD limit, and your account will be closed.
You are not allowed to open or close a position ±2 minutes of a major or high impactcalendar event, as per the FX Street economic calendar. Trading within these times is considered a minor breach and profit may be deducted. Two (2) minor breaches equateto a major breach, and your account will be closed.
Using Stop Loss (SL) or Take Profit (TP) when trading a Challenge or Funded account is not compulsory. However, as SL and TP form the basis of good risk management, it is strongly encouraged.
These tools help you protect your capital, maintain discipline, and avoid emotional decision-making, most especially during periods of high volatility or unexpected market events. Traders who consistently manage risk tend to perform better in the long run.
No, there is no requirement to make a profit every day. In the evaluation Challenge, your account will be reviewed based on your overall performance, not day-to-day gains.
You are required to complete a minimum of 5 trading days in each Phase, meaning that you open at least one position during the day. You do not have a time limit to reach your profit target, so you can choose the best trading conditions, avoid over-trading, and maintain a sustainable trading rhythm that suits you and your strategy.
Yes, you are allowed to hold trades overnight.
Be aware that, depending on the instrument, swap fees may apply and will be factored into your daily drawdown calculations. Spreads can also widen overnight and may affect your profitability.
Yes, you can hold trades over a weekend, meaning you can carry positions from Friday into Monday without restriction.
There are some added risks that come about from holding trades over the weekend.These include, for example:
We encourage you to evaluate whether the potential weekend exposure aligns with your strategy and risk appetite.
While you can hold open positions over a weekend, weekend trading is not allowed, so you cannot open any new positions during this time. Trading over the weekend is a trading rule violation.
No, weekend trading is a trading rule violation and may result in your account being closed. You can hold any existing open positions for the duration of the weekend, but you may not open any new positions after market closing on Friday and before market opening on Monday.
A violation of the trading rules may result in your account being closed.
Depending on the severity of the violation, they are classified into major or minor breaches.
A minor breach is a non-critical violation, and you will be issued with a warning notice.Two (2) minor breaches will equate to a major breach. A major breach represents a serious violation, such as exceeding loss limits or engaging in prohibited practices, and your account will be closed immediately.
In the event of your account being closed, you are allowed to purchase a new Challenge and start your evaluation again.
