How it will work

The whole path, start to finish. You can read every rule before you pay a cent — and the rules you start with are the rules you finish with.

01
Pick a Size

$25K, $50K, or $100K simulated account. You pay one evaluation fee, once. It never renews and it never expires.

02
Show Us Your Trading

Reach the profit target without breaking the daily loss limit or the trailing drawdown. Take a week or take a year — there is no deadline.

03
Trade Funded

Pass, and you move to a funded account backed by CandleFunded capital — same three rules you already know, nothing new sprung on you.

04
Take Your 90%

When you're in profit, request a withdrawal from your dashboard. Our target is same-business-day processing — and we'll publish our real payout times once we're live.

Three sizes. Same fair deal.

Run by a trader who's taken these evals

The founder trades funded futures accounts at multiple firms right now. Every rule here is one he'd be willing to trade under himself — and the annoyances he's hit as a customer are the things this firm is built to not do.

  • 🧾

    One Fee, Then Silence From Us

    Most firms bill you monthly while you attempt the eval, so slow months profit them. Your fee here is one-time. We make nothing extra when you struggle.

  • 🎯

    Rules You Can Recite

    A target, a daily loss limit, a trailing drawdown. If a rule ever changes, existing accounts keep the terms they signed up under.

  • 📖

    Numbers Published, Not Promised

    From day one of going live we'll post real figures — payouts processed, average processing time — instead of marketing claims. If we can't show it, we won't say it.

  • 🔐

    Your Savings Stay Yours

    The evaluation happens in a simulated account. The only money you ever have on the line is the fee you chose to pay — funded-account losses are our problem, not yours.

How the 90/10 Split Works — Worked Example
Say you're funded on $50,000
And you make $1,000 profit
You withdraw $900
CandleFunded keeps $100
Monthly fee owed $0
This is arithmetic, not a performance claim. Most traders do not pass evaluations, and trading futures involves substantial risk of loss.

Get in before the doors open

We're finishing the plumbing — payments, dashboards, and a lawyer's pass over the fine print. Leave your email and you'll hear from us the day evaluations open, with a waitlist-only discount code.

✔ You're on the list. We'll email you when evaluations open — your discount code will be in that message.

Common questions

When do you launch?
We're pre-launch right now. Payments, the trader dashboard, and a legal review of the agreements are being finished — waitlist members get the opening-day email and a discount code. No date promised until we can keep it.
Is the evaluation real money?
No — evaluations run on a simulated account, so the only money you can lose is the one-time fee. A funded account, after passing, is backed by CandleFunded's capital, and the payouts you earn there are real.
Is there a time limit or subscription?
Neither. You pay the evaluation fee once and the account stays open until you pass it or break a rule. Nothing renews, nothing expires, and slow months cost you nothing extra.
What exactly are the rules?
Three per account: reach the profit target, never lose more than the daily limit in one day, and never let the account fall below the trailing drawdown. The exact dollar figures for each size are on the plan cards above.
What can I trade, and on what platform?
CME-group futures — index futures like ES and NQ, energy, metals, rates. No crypto or single-stock futures at launch. Platform details will be confirmed in the launch email before anyone pays.
What if I fail?
Breaking a rule ends that evaluation. You can restart with a reset fee that's cheaper than the original evaluation — the exact reset pricing will be published on this page at launch.
How do payouts work once I'm funded?
You request a withdrawal, we send 90% of the requested profit to you and keep 10%. Our target is same-business-day processing, and once we're live we'll publish our actual processing times rather than just claiming speed.
Who runs this?
A California-based futures trader who currently trades funded accounts at several established firms — the rules here are ones the founder would accept as a customer. Questions? Email candleclubtrading@gmail.com and you'll get a reply from a human.
