Two Step

Two Step

Two phases, wide loss limits and up to a 95% split.

Two Step is our classic evaluation. Reach 8% in Phase 1 and 5% in Phase 2 with a 5% daily and 10% static loss limit and no time limit. Pass both and you get a funded account, a split that scales up to 95% and your fee back with the 3rd reward.

  • 2 phases: 8% in Phase 1, 5% in Phase 2.
  • Risk limits: 5% daily, 10% static max loss.
  • 3 profitable days per phase, no time limit.
  • Up to 95% profit split, first reward after 21 days.
  • Account sizes: $6K, $15K, $25K, $50K, $100K and $200K, from $39.

Additional Guidelines

What you can and can't do

These apply on top of the loss limits. Breaking the prohibited ones can close the account and cancel payouts.

News trading

Evaluation: allowed

You can trade high-impact news during the evaluation, no add-on needed. On the funded account you cannot open or close trades from 10 minutes before to 10 minutes after high-impact news.

Weekend holding

Add-on

Without the Weekend Holding add-on, close all positions before the market closes on Friday. Buy the add-on at checkout and you can hold over the weekend on the evaluation and on the funded account.

Stop loss

Funded: required

Optional during the evaluation. Required on every funded position, placed right after the trade is opened.

EAs and bots

Add-on

Allowed with the EA Bots add-on as trade managers, risk tools or semi-automated execution you supervise. Fully automated set-and-forget bots are not allowed.

Copy trading

Own accounts only

Copying signals, groups or other traders is not allowed. Copying from your own personal account at another broker is fine, as long as it belongs only to you.

Hedging

Not allowed

No opposite positions on the same instrument: not in one account, not across your accounts, not with other traders or other firms.

Martingale and grid

Not allowed

Adding size after losses to win it back, or laying a grid of orders without a directional idea, is prohibited.

Scalping and HFT

Not allowed

Tick scalping (trades under ~30 seconds as a system), high-frequency trading and any form of arbitrage are prohibited.

Devices, VPN and VPS

Personal only

Trade from your own device. VPNs and proxies are not allowed. A VPS is fine if it is private and used only by you.

One trader, one account

Strict

One ThaurusGuru profile per person, traded only by you. Passing services, account managers and shared logins are prohibited.

How a payout works

  1. Trade your funded account and build profit.
  2. After 21 days, request your first payout from the dashboard (minimum $100).
  3. We review the account for rule compliance and KYC.
  4. Approved rewards are sent by crypto or bank transfer, including local methods where available. After that you can request again every 14 days (or every 7 days with the Weekly Payouts add-on).

Your profit split

Every funded account starts at 80%. The Scaling Plan raises your split up to 95% and grows your allocation up to $400,000.

Reward guidelines

  • Daily profit cap: up to $3,000 profit per trading day counts. Anything above is deducted, but it is not a breach.
  • First two rewards: each can be at most 8% of the initial balance. From the third reward there is no withdrawal limit.
  • Under 2 minutes: profit from trades held under 2 minutes is left out of the payout.
  • Fee refund: your challenge fee comes back with your 3rd reward.
