The Funded Trader rules need a source-gap read before you rely on them. This is not a complete current account-rule table. The official homepage exposes the rule fields traders care about, but the Knowledge Center was blocked in this source pass, so exact account values stay limited unless they were visible on the homepage or official TFT blog.

Account Path Trip-Up

Rows To Inspect First

Start with the Knowledge Center or dashboard. The homepage tells you which rule categories exist, but this capture did not expose exact values for every selected account path.

Source freshness

Last verified July 6, 2026: Official homepage and official TFT blog were checked for this scan. Recheck before any status change. The help center returned a Cloudflare challenge, so dashboard/account-specific rule values should be rechecked before purchase, payout planning, or publication.

Official sources checked

Homepage: https://www.thefundedtraderprogram.com/index.html. Official TFT blog: Profit Split Changes and Bonus Pools at TFT. Help center: https://help.thefundedtraderprogram.com/en/, inaccessible to this run because it returned a Cloudflare challenge.

Content Scraper MCP returned no content for the help center. Third-party pages, Reddit, and AI Overview were not used for rule facts.

Methodology, disclosure, and corrections

RuleWatch records what the checked official sources say and marks source gaps instead of guessing. It does not decide whether an account will pass, fail, or receive a payout. TFT can apply challenge-specific, dashboard-specific, agreement-specific, KYC, payout review, prohibited-conduct, or region-specific terms that are not visible in this public source scan.

This page currently has no signup links, paid placements, sponsored rows, or monetized routing. Firm representatives can send corrections with an official public URL and the exact program, stage, and payout scope.
