'Funded' means a simulated or virtual account; GFN is not a broker and does not hold client funds." --- Evaluation rules # Minimum trading days: none on two of three. Instant and 1 Step have no minimum trading days, so a 1 Step evaluation can be completed in a single session. The 2 Step requires at least 3 separate trading days with 0.5% profit, which is $500 on a $100,000 simulated account. Every other rule applies on those days as normal. [Compare the three programmes →](https://getfundednow.com/challenges) · [Read the full handbook](https://getfundednow.com/rules) The rule ## Is there a minimum number of trading days? Percentages are what the industry publishes. These are the same rules in dollars, worked on a $100,000 simulated account, so there is nothing left to convert. - **Instant minimum days**: None - **1 Step minimum days**: None The evaluation can be completed in one day. - **2 Step minimum days**: 3 days - **2 Step profit requirement 0.5% of $100,000**: $500 Across at least 3 separate trading days. - **What counts as a trading day**: A day with a trade The dashboard's count is the official one. Days without a fill do not count. Plan applicability ## Which programmes this rule applies to Our three programmes do not share one rulebook. This table is the part of the page to read before you buy. - **Instant Does not apply**: None The account is funded from day one, so there is no day count to satisfy. - **1 Step Does not apply**: None Clear the 10% target inside the rules and the number of days it took is not a factor. - **2 Step Applies**: 3 days, 0.5% profit You need $500 of virtual profit on a $100,000 account spread across at least 3 separate days. This rules out passing the 2 Step in one session. Why it exists ## The reasoning, stated plainly A day count is a light test of whether a result is repeatable. It is also the reason the 2 Step is the cheapest way in: the programme asks for more evidence and charges less for the attempt. If trading infrequently is the plan, that combination is worth reading twice before buying. Worked example ## The same rule, as a number A $100,000 simulated account, because that is the size most people are deciding about. ### Hitting phase 1 in two days on a $100,000 2 Step The $8,000 target is met. The phase is not. - **Day 1**: +$5,000 - **Day 2**: +$3,000 Total $8,000 - target reached. - **Trading days so far**: 2 of 3 One more day with a trade is still required. - **Consistency check**: Best day 63% Also above the 35% limit, so there is more to do than one extra day. Two rules are open at once here, which is the usual shape of a stalled 2 Step. Both are published, both are in the dashboard, and neither is discretionary. Commonly misread ## What traders get wrong here Every item below has cost somebody an account. They are published for that reason rather than for completeness. “GFN has no minimum trading days” True of Instant and 1 Step, false of the 2 Step, which asks for 3 days and 0.5% profit. “Opening a platform counts as a trading day”: A day counts when a trade is placed on it.
