Cons	Trailing drawdown calculates from peak equity, punishing intraday profit pullbacks Presents 40% consistency rule limiting single-day profit weighting on withdrawals Restricts trade execution 5 minutes before and after high-impact news on funded models Minimum trade holding time of 2 minutes required per position	Mandatory KYC identity verification is required before any payout can be processed Simulated accounts rely on the counterparty solvency of the prop firm Instant Master tiers operate with tighter drawdown limits than evaluation accounts Rule breaches terminate the challenge immediately without fee reimbursement
