- [Do I need to close my trades before an Evaluation can be marked as passed?](https://getfundednow.com/faq/do-i-need-to-close-trades-to-pass) - Your account must satisfy the conditions required for completion - and open positions affect equity, so a balance that briefly crosses the target is not a pass.
- [Do profits from Phase 1 carry into Phase 2?](https://getfundednow.com/faq/do-phase-1-profits-carry-over) - No. Each Evaluation phase has its own objectives and starts according to the conditions defined for that phase.
- [Is the profit target based on balance or equity?](https://getfundednow.com/faq/profit-target-balance-or-equity) - Use the metrics displayed in your GFN dashboard for the relevant objective - open positions affect equity and risk limits before they are closed.
