How the 1 Phase Challenge works

From purchase to funded account — four clear steps in one evaluation phase.

  1. 1

    Choose your account & pay the fee

    Select the capital level that matches your plan. A single fee opens your evaluation account.

  2. 2

    Receive your access

    Get your MT5 credentials and dashboard to monitor objectives, drawdowns and trading days. You also get fundamental analysis from our analysts.

  3. 3

    Trade the evaluation

    Reach the profit target while staying within daily and total loss limits, and meet minimum active days.

  4. 4

    Become funded & earn rewards

    After passing, continue under funded rules with performance-based rewards (e.g. 90% to you).

Why 25,000+ traders choose this format

Less complexity doesn’t mean fewer standards. It means a cleaner evaluation focused on what actually matters: process and risk.

One objective. Less noise.

A single performance target keeps the focus on execution quality instead of “gaming” multi-stage constraints.

Risk is measurable.

Daily and total loss limits create a stable framework. If the limits are respected, the evaluation stays predictable.

Rules stay readable.

You should be able to understand the program in minutes, and trade it for weeks without surprises.

Scale up to $5M

Grow your allocation progressively, based on performance and rule compliance.

The real questions.

The real answers.

No jargon.

When can I request my first payout?

First payout after one month, then every two weeks. Subject to program rules.

How do payouts work?

You request a payout on your dashboard on the scheduled cycle (every two weeks) once your account is eligible. Amounts follow the profit split and conditions in the program rules. Subject to program rules.

Are there hidden rules?

No. Risk limits, objectives, and payout conditions are documented before purchase. If it’s not in the published rules, it isn’t used to refuse a valid request.

Why Switzerland instead of Dubai or the Caribbean?

Because Swiss jurisdiction imposes real constraints on us — transparency, audits, law that applies to European traders. It’s more demanding for us. That’s exactly why we chose it. A serious firm doesn’t need to set up where no one can hold it to account.

How far can I scale with STF?

Up to $5,000,000 in funded capital. No matter which challenge you start with — $10,000, $50,000, $200,000 — the path to $5M stays open. The rules are identical at every tier. No surprises along the way. You validate, you scale. As simple as that.

Which platform and which instruments can I trade?

Platform: MetaTrader 5 (MT5). Available instruments: forex, commodities, indices, stocks. Overnight and weekend holding are allowed according to the program’s assets.

What happens if I don’t pass the challenge?

If you break the rules or don’t meet the objective, the evaluation ends according to the program conditions. You can purchase a new challenge if you wish.

How is STF really different from other prop firms?

Most firms ask you to trust them. STF gives you the means to verify before you buy. 1 — Your rules are contractual. They are written into your contract. STF cannot change them unilaterally overnight. 2 — A Swiss legal structure. Real, verifiable obligations, governed by Swiss law. Not an untraceable offshore shell. 3 — One phase only. 90% profit split. Payout every 2 weeks. You pass your challenge — you trade. No phase 2, no artificial delay. Performance, capital, scaling up to $5,000,000 — that’s the minimum you should expect. What really sets us apart: everything you can prove before you even pay.
