MyFundedFutures Eval Rules: Static Drawdown, Contract Sizing & Pine Script Automation
MyFundedFutures runs one of the cleanest rule sets an algo trader can ask for — static drawdown, no consistency rule, and automation allowed on both the evaluation and the funded account. A fixed-risk Pine Script fits this structure better than almost anywhere else in the space.
MFFU evaluation rules at a glance
| Account | Profit Target | Max Drawdown (Static) | Daily Loss |
|---|---|---|---|
| 50k | $3,000 | $2,000 | $1,250 |
| 100k | $6,000 | $3,000 | $2,000 |
| 150k | $9,000 | $4,500 | $3,000 |
Drawdown type
Static
Fixed at account opening — explicitly and repeatedly stated as never trailing.
Daily loss limit
$1,250 (50k) · $2,000 (100k) · $3,000 (150k).
Consistency rule
None — explicit, no cap on single-day contribution.
Min trading days
No minimum
None required — explicitly and repeatedly stated ("no minimum trading days required").
Payout split
Not published
Not stated on the legacy Starter/Expert/Master page. The newer Core/Scale/Pro lineup (per the rule-changes tracker, Jul 2025) added a $100K payout cap, $0 activation fees, and 5 sim-funded accounts on the $50K tier (up from 3), with no DLL or consistency rule in the sim-funded stage. The Builder plan ($50K, Jun 2026) allows passing in as little as 1 day, with the first payout available 48 hours after the first funded trade. The relaunched Flex plan ($25K/$50K, May 2026) uses EOD drawdown (not static), with a $2,000 max loss on the $50K tier.
Automation policy
Explicitly permitted on both the evaluation and the live funded account — one of the few firms allowing this on both phases.
MFFU replaced its Starter/Expert/Master lineup with Core, Scale, and Pro in July 2025, then added a Builder plan and relaunched Flex in 2026 — dated specifics live in the MyFundedFutures rule changes tracker. The account-size numbers above reflect the earlier eval-phase baseline; treat the plan names as historical rather than current.
Static drawdown vs. trailing drawdown — why it matters for a Pine Script
This is the concept that sets MFFU apart. On a trailing-drawdown firm like Apex or Topstep, every profitable stretch drags the floor up with it — bank $1,500 on a 50k account and the allowed drawdown moves closer, so a losing streak right afterward has less room to work with than it did on day one.
MFFU's static drawdown just sits still. Whether the account is up $1,000 or up $2,900 heading into the target, the floor hasn't moved an inch. That removes one of the most common psychological traps in prop trading — the sense that the closer you get to the target, the less room you have to breathe.
For a script, that's a structural advantage. A strategy with a known edge and a known R-multiple can be sized once, at the start, so that even a run of 10-15 consecutive losses stays clear of the static line — and that sizing never has to shrink as the target approaches.
MFFU contract sizing — how to size it right
With no minimum trading-days requirement, sizing can be more aggressive than on a 10-day grind like Topstep's — but the daily loss limit still caps how much a single session can lose. The goal is sizing so 3-4 stop-outs in one day stays comfortably under that limit:
| Account | Contract | Recommended size | Stop size | Max loss per trade | Losing trades to daily limit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50k Starter | MES | 3–5 contracts | 8 points | $60–$100 | 12–20 trades |
| 50k Starter | MNQ | 3–5 contracts | 25 ticks | $37–$62 | 20–33 trades |
| 100k Expert | ES | 1 contract | 6 points | $300 | 6–7 trades |
| 100k Expert | NQ | 1 contract | 15 ticks | $300 | 6–7 trades |
| 150k Master | ES | 1–2 contracts | 6 points | $300–$600 | 5–10 trades |
Because there's no trailing floor to protect, sizing stays flat from the first trade to the last — no need to pull back after a strong day the way a trailing firm would demand.
No minimum trading days — what this means for algo traders
MFFU doesn't require a set number of trading days before the eval can close. If a strategy fires five signals on day one, all five hit, and the profit target clears — the eval is done. That's a different approach entirely from firms like Topstep, which requires 10 trading days and 5 winning days regardless of how quickly the target is reached.
In practice, most accounts don't blow through in two days — a properly sized Pine Script typically takes 2-4 weeks to reach the target on a 50k account. But on the weeks the market cooperates, MFFU doesn't penalize a strategy for running ahead of schedule. The eval closes when the target is hit, not after a mandatory waiting period.
Automation policy on MFFU
MFFU explicitly allows automated trading on both the evaluation and the live funded account — one of the more automation-friendly firms in the futures prop space. A Pine Script connected via TradingView alerts to TradersPost can run hands-off through both phases. As always, confirm the current MFFU terms before going live, since prop firm policy evolves.
How Pine Script strategies are built for MFFU's rule set
Every script in the store shares the same core design, tuned for MFFU's static-drawdown structure:
- Fixed dollar stop per trade. Risk is pre-coded and doesn't change mid-session — the worst case on any single trade is known before it fires.
- One entry per signal, no averaging. A losing trade never compounds; the script waits for the next setup instead of doubling down.
- Bar-close confirmation only. Entries trigger on the close, not on intrabar movement, so backtest and live execution match.
- Daily loss kill switch. Once cumulative session losses hit a configurable threshold (default 80% of MFFU's daily limit), the script stops opening new trades for the rest of the session.
- RTH session filter. Keeps entries inside Regular Trading Hours, the cleanest window for MES, MNQ, ES, and NQ.
- TradersPost webhook output. Delivers alerts in TradersPost format for direct execution into a Tradovate or Rithmic feed — no manual order entry.
Which plan fits an MFFU trader?
The 50k Starter tier pairs with the Starter plan ($19/mo) — MES or MNQ, sized for the $2,000 static drawdown floor. The 100k Expert and 150k Master tiers pair with the Pro plan ($29/mo) on ES or NQ. If specific indicators, entry logic, or risk parameters are already worked out, the Custom plan ($250 one-time) builds it to spec and delivers in 3-5 business days.
