Precision Capital For Serious Traders.

Every ZeroLedger account is a single-step evaluation — there are no multi-phase challenges. You trade a simulated account and must reach the profit target while staying inside the daily and maximum drawdown limits and respecting the risk framework. Pass once and the account converts to funded, where you keep up to 90% of the profit you generate.

The same firm-wide rules apply to every account, evaluation and funded:

• Risk per trade: a maximum of 0.25% of account balance may be at risk on any single position (defined by your stop).
• Risk per day: up to 1.25% — that is your five slots each risking 0.25%.
• Minimum reward: every trade must target at least a 1:2 risk-to-reward ratio.
• Significant losses: no more than 3 significant losing trades in a single day.

You have 5 trading slots — but a slot is not just an open position. A slot is consumed by:

• each currently open position, and
• each significant closed loss, which keeps holding its slot for the remainder of that trading day.

So open positions + significant losses taken today together cannot exceed five. Two losing trades early in the session leave you three slots for the rest of the day — plan entries accordingly.

Each account publishes two hard limits (shown on its card):

• Maximum drawdown — the total your equity may fall from the starting balance before the account fails.
• Daily loss limit — the most you may lose in a single trading day.

Breaching either limit ends the account immediately. Limits are measured on realised and floating (open) P&L, so an open position counts against your drawdown in real time. You can always repurchase a new evaluation.

Reach the account's profit target without breaching any limit, and pass — it's one step, no second phase. There is no maximum time limit, but consistency matters: you must record enough valid trading days (a valid day is one where you make at least 0.5% of the starting balance) before you become payout-eligible. Grind it out cleanly rather than swinging for the target in one trade.

Funded traders keep up to 90% of profit. To request a payout you must meet the eligibility gate:

• Valid trading days: at least 7 days each producing ≥ 0.5% of the initial balance.
• Consistency rule: no single day may account for more than 20% of your total profit — one lucky day won't qualify you.

Once eligible, request through the client portal; payouts are reviewed and processed typically within 24–48 hours via crypto or wire.

Accounts run on MetaTrader 5 and cover FX, metals (e.g. Gold), indices, and select crypto. A few caveats worth knowing:

• Instruments follow real market sessions. Some — Gold, for example — stop accepting orders slightly before the price feed stops updating, so the chart can still tick while new orders are rejected near the daily close.
• Markets close on weekends and holidays; positions are subject to session gaps.
• Symbols are standardised internally (e.g. Gold), which is normal — your fills reference the live broker feed.

Genuine discretionary and systematic trading is welcome. Prohibited are strategies that exploit the simulated environment rather than the market — including latency/arbitrage exploits, tick-scalping abuse, gap/holiday exploitation, coordinated group trading across accounts, and any use of a third party to trade on your behalf. The risk framework (1:2 minimum reward, 0.25% per trade, slot limits) is enforced automatically.
