What you need to make, phase by phase
| Stage | Target | In R at 0.75% a trade | Minimum days | Time limit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Challenge | 10% ($500) | 13.3R | None | No limit |
| Funded: first payout | Any profit | – | 14 days | – |
R is the amount you lose on one losing trade. At 0.75% risk, 1R is $38.
How to pass The5%ers Hyper Growth (1-step)
- Risk about 0.75% a trade ($38). That was the risk that gave the best chance of passing and getting paid on these rules in our benchmark. Bigger trades finish sooner when they work but breach the limits far more often; smaller trades are safer but can take months. At this size the target needs about 13.3R of net profit, meaning 13.3 times your risk on one trade. The position size calculator turns that into lots or contracts.
- Set your own daily stop. There is no daily loss limit to fail, so the only thing that stops a bad day is you. A stop of about a third of the maximum loss (2 losses at 0.75%, about $75) means no single day can end the account.
- Know your floor: $4,700. The 6% maximum loss is static, so the floor is fixed at $4,700: it never moves, however much profit you make. That is room for 7 losing trades in a row at 0.75%. Profit you make is extra room, so the account gets safer as it grows.
- Pace yourself. There is no time limit, so don't raise your risk to finish sooner: time is on your side.
- Once funded. The first payout comes after 14 days. Keep trading the same way you passed: the limits still apply, and the account can still be lost.
- Test your own strategy before you pay. The numbers above come from a made-up trader. Upload your backtest or trade history to see your own pass and payout chance on this account, and use the strategy builder to add a daily stop and loss guards set to these limits.

Rules to watch at The5%ers
High Stakes minimum days are profitable days of 0.5%+ (modelled as trading days). Hyper Growth's 3% daily limit pauses trading for the day instead of failing the account, so it isn't modelled as a breach. Payouts bi-weekly with a $150 minimum. Accounts inactive for 30 days close.

What it really costs to get funded
A challenge fee buys an attempt, not an account. If you divide the fee by the chance of success, you get what the average trader actually spends, retries included, before it pays off.
- At a 53% pass chance, every $100 of fee works out at about $189 spent for each account that gets funded.
- At a 43% chance of passing and reaching a first payout, every $100 of fee works out at about $233 for each first payout.
- At $260 for $5K, that is about $491 per funded account and $605 per first payout.
These use our benchmark trader's odds, not yours. A stronger strategy pays less per success and a weaker one pays more, which is why it is worth testing your own trades first. Many firms refund the fee with the first payout; check The5%ers's terms.
