What is a Core-DLL Futures Challenge Account?
The Core-DLL Futures Challenge Account is the stage before the Funded Account. It allows you to prove your trading skills with lower capital requirements and slightly more flexible rules.
Our Core-DLL plan is built around the Daily Loss Limit (DLL). Instead of capping risk per position, your total loss per day may not exceed a fixed amount. This gives you full flexibility on each individual trade while keeping your daily risk clearly defined.
Are profits withdrawable?
No, the Challenge Account is fully based on simulated capital. All profits generated are only used for qualification purposes and cannot be withdrawn.

*Reaching the Daily Loss Limit results in a hard breach, meaning the account is closed.
What happens after passing?
Once you reach the profit target, you can directly activate the account in the dashboard by paying the activation fee. You will then receive a new Core-DLL Funded Account with the same account size.
There is no time limit for activating a passed Challenge.
What happens if I violate a rule?
If you breach the account, you may restart the Challenge Account for a reduced reset fee.
Duration
A Challenge Account is valid for 30 days. You may manually extend it in the dashboard for an additional 30 days for $19. If no extension is purchased, access to the account will permanently expire.
