What the rules mean in practice
- To pass, grow the $50K account by $5,000 (10%) without breaking a loss limit.
- On any single day you can lose up to $1,500 (3%). Check AquaFunded's rules for whether that is measured from the day's starting balance or equity, because open trades count.
- The account fails if you lose $6,000 (12%). This is static drawdown: the loss limit is fixed at a set distance below your starting balance and never moves.
- Consistency rule: None
- At a 90% split, you need about 0.67% return on the funded account to earn back the $300.47 fee.
- Payouts: every 14 days (every 7 days with a paid add-on)
- The 12% static maximum loss applies to accounts bought from 31 August 2026. Earlier accounts keep a 10% limit.
- The daily loss limit is set at each 00:00 UTC reset from the higher of balance or equity.
- On the funded account, a floating loss of 1% is a WaveStop strike: the first cuts the split to 50%, the second to 25%, and the third ends the account.
