Rows To Inspect First

These are practical rule-friction rows from official CFT sources, not a recommendation.

1-phase vs 2-phase drawdown

2-phase uses a fixed 10% max overall loss. 1-phase uses a 6% trailing drawdown that can lock at initial balance.

Different drawdown model

Reverse trading

Opposite-direction positions can break rules if they overlap for 60 seconds or more, including across accounts in the checked source.

Cross-account risk

Bybit account rules

Bybit evaluations are USDT futures only. Spot, options, USDC pairs, API modification, and extra funds are prohibited in the checked FAQ.

Platform-specific

Crypto Fund Trader Official Rule Rows

Rule area	Official-source snapshot	What to verify + evidence
Evaluation scope	CFT describes itself as a simulated trading evaluation firm. Account sizes and requirements vary by selected program.	Do not apply a 1-phase, 2-phase, Break, Ascend, Instant, Match-Trader, MT5, or Bybit rule to another path without checking the matching source. Source evidence FAQ, checked July 6, 2026.
Minimum trading days	For 1-phase and 2-phase evaluations, traders must trade at least 5 different days in each phase unless they bought the applicable No Minimum Trading Days add-on.	Minimum days do not need to be consecutive in the checked FAQ. Source evidence FAQ, checked July 6, 2026.
2-Phase drawdown	Daily maximum loss is 5%. Maximum overall loss is fixed at 10% of initial account balance.	Drawdown breaches are based on equity. Check the selected program page for current targets and any add-ons. Source evidence FAQ and Evaluation Process, checked July 6, 2026.
1-Phase drawdown	Daily maximum loss is 4%. The trailing drawdown is 6% of initial account balance, moves up as balance reaches new highs, and stops moving once it reaches initial account balance.	This is not the same as the 2-phase fixed overall loss rule. Open-equity drawdown behavior can matter before a pass. Source evidence FAQ and Evaluation Process, checked July 6, 2026.
Reverse trading	Opposite-direction trades with simultaneous duration of 60 seconds or more are not allowed. Opposite trades across different accounts are not allowed. Same-user hedging between accounts is not allowed.	Opposite trades in different pairs are allowed in the checked source; opposite trades in different quote currencies for the same asset are not. Verify the current article before using any hedge-like setup. Source evidence Evaluation Rules, checked July 6, 2026.
Profit cap / all-in rule	The daily and/or per-trade simulated profit limit is $10,000. Trades closed in several parts or executed around the same time may count as one trade for this rule.	This is framed by CFT as gambling/all-in control, not as BestProps advice about position sizing. Source evidence Evaluation Rules and FAQ, checked July 6, 2026.
Prohibited strategies	HFT, tick scalping, arbitrage, news-scalping EAs, latency/execution-environment exploitation, gambling-style trading, all-in trading, and abusive hedging are prohibited in the checked sources.	This page intentionally does not describe evasion tactics or enforcement thresholds. Source evidence Evaluation Rules, FAQ, and Trading Conditions, checked July 6, 2026.
Bybit rules	Bybit evaluations use the trader’s personal Bybit account. Only USDT crypto futures contracts are allowed; spot, options, USDC pairs, unsupported instruments, extra funds, and API modification are prohibited.	Bybit terms and jurisdiction restrictions still apply to the trader. CFT says traders are responsible for complying with Bybit rules. Source evidence FAQ, checked July 6, 2026.
News and holding	The general FAQ says news trading is allowed and overnight/weekend positions are allowed. The Ascend Evaluation has a high-impact-news restriction from 2 minutes before until 2 minutes after the event.	Do not apply the general news row to Ascend or any special product without checking that product section. Source evidence FAQ and Trading Conditions, checked July 6, 2026.
KYC and reward requests	Before scholarship rewards can be processed, KYC must be completed and approved. Standard final-stage requests require at least 15 traded days or every 30 calendar days; some add-ons or products differ.	Reward timing, account type, open trades, payment details, and KYC can change the practical payout path. Source evidence FAQ, checked July 6, 2026.

Source freshness and scope

Source freshness: BestProps checked official Crypto Fund Trader sources on July 6, 2026. Open the official source before acting because program pages and account dashboards can change.

Scope checked: 1-Phase, 2-Phase, Bybit, final-stage reward, and selected Break/Ascend/Instant FAQ notes from the official public pages. Recheck before any public publish after July 20, 2026.

What BestProps did not verify

This page does not verify trader reviews, third-party discounts, Trustpilot sentiment, current checkout pricing, dashboard-only terms, or whether any individual reward request will be approved. It does not claim a historical rule change because this run captured current official sources only.
