Quick Answer — FundedNext Profit Targets
- • FundedNext profit targets range from 4% to 10% on CFD accounts and $1,250 to $6,000 on futures accounts, depending on the model, phase, and account size.
- • As of April 2026, the Stellar 2-Step requires 8% in Phase 1 and 5% in Phase 2, while the Stellar 1-Step requires 10% in a single phase. No CFD model has a funded-phase profit target.
- • FundedNext Futures targets are fixed dollar amounts: Rapid ranges from $1,500 (25K) to $5,000 (100K), and Legacy ranges from $1,250 (25K) to $6,000 (100K).
- • FundedNext's 15% challenge profit share lets Stellar 1-Step and 2-Step traders earn 15% of their challenge profits on top of the funded account, paid with the first or third withdrawal.
- • Watch out: FundedNext's consistency rule on futures can automatically raise your profit target if a single day exceeds 40% of the total target.
Learned the hard way: I've traded FundedNext across both CFD and futures, passed challenges, breached accounts, and collected payouts. The profit targets look simple on paper, but the details between models catch people off guard constantly.

FundedNext profit targets are the percentage or dollar amount you need to earn before passing a challenge phase or qualifying for a withdrawal. As of April 2026, FundedNext runs seven distinct account models across two divisions (CFD and Futures), and the profit targets differ for every single one.
I've traded both sides of FundedNext. The CFD targets are percentage-based and relatively straightforward. The futures targets are fixed dollar amounts that vary by account size and model. And then there's the consistency rule, which can quietly raise your futures target mid-challenge if you have one strong day. That last part trips up more traders than the target itself.
Here's every profit target at FundedNext broken down by model, size, and phase, with the exact dollar amounts for CFD accounts and strategy considerations for each.
What Are FundedNext's CFD Profit Targets?
FundedNext's CFD division offers four account models. Three of them have profit targets during the challenge phase. One has no target at all. None of them require a profit target once you're funded.
As of April 2026:
- Stellar 2-Step: Phase 1 = 8% of initial balance. Phase 2 = 5% of initial balance. Funded = no target.
- Stellar 1-Step: Single phase = 10% of initial balance. Funded = no target.
- Stellar Lite: Phase 1 = 8% of initial balance. Phase 2 = 4% of initial balance. Funded = no target.
- Stellar Instant: No profit target at any stage. You get funded immediately.
The Stellar Instant model is the outlier. There's no challenge, no evaluation, and no target. You pay the fee, get a funded account, and start trading with a 6% trailing drawdown as your only constraint.
For the other three models, your target resets between phases. Profit from Phase 1 doesn't carry over to Phase 2. You start Phase 2 at the initial balance and need to hit the Phase 2 percentage from scratch.
How Do the Dollar Amounts Break Down per Account Size?
Percentages are clean, but when you're actually trading, you think in dollars. Here's what the CFD targets look like in real numbers across every available account size.
| Account Size | 2-Step P1 (8%) | 2-Step P2 (5%) | 1-Step (10%) | Lite P1 (8%) | Lite P2 (4%) | Instant |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $2,000 | — | — | — | — | — | No target |
| $5,000 | — | — | — | $400 | $200 | No target |
| $6,000 | $480 | $300 | $600 | — | — | — |
| $10,000 | — | — | — | $800 | $400 | No target |
| $15,000 | $1,200 | $750 | $1,500 | — | — | — |
| $20,000 | — | — | — | — | — | No target |
| $25,000 | $2,000 | $1,250 | $2,500 | $2,000 | $1,000 | — |
| $50,000 | $4,000 | $2,500 | $5,000 | $4,000 | $2,000 | — |
| $100,000 | $8,000 | $5,000 | $10,000 | $8,000 | $4,000 | — |
| $200,000 | $16,000 | $10,000 | $20,000 | $16,000 | $8,000 | — |
A few things to note on this table. The Stellar 2-Step and 1-Step share the same size range ($6K to $200K), but Stellar Lite starts at $5K and Stellar Instant tops out at $20K. Not every size is available on every model.
The $50,000 Stellar 2-Step is the most popular size I see traders running. That's $4,000 in Phase 1 and $2,500 in Phase 2. Very doable if you're not overleveraging.
What Are FundedNext's Futures Profit Targets?
FundedNext's futures side works differently. Targets are fixed dollar amounts, not percentages. And they only apply during the challenge phase. Once you're funded, there's no profit target to hit, though you do need to meet minimum withdrawal thresholds.
As of April 2026, FundedNext offers three futures models:
Rapid Challenge:
- $25,000 account: $1,500 profit target
- $50,000 account: $3,000 profit target
- $100,000 account: $5,000 profit target
Legacy Challenge:
- $25,000 account: $1,250 profit target
- $50,000 account: $3,000 profit target
- $100,000 account: $6,000 profit target
Bolt Challenge:
- $50,000 account (only size available): $3,000 profit target
Did the Legacy $50K Target Change Recently?
Yes. FundedNext raised the Legacy $50K profit target from $2,500 to $3,000 after March 16, 2026. If you purchased a Legacy $50K challenge before that date, your target was $2,500. New purchases after March 16 carry the $3,000 target.
This is a meaningful increase. Going from $2,500 to $3,000 means you need an extra $500 in profits to pass, while the drawdown and loss limits stayed the same. The risk-to-target ratio got worse.
If you're comparing old forum posts or YouTube videos about the Legacy 50K, double-check whether they reference the pre- or post-March 2026 numbers. Outdated information on this specific target is everywhere right now.
How Do FundedNext Futures Targets Compare by Account Size?
| Account Size | Rapid Target | Legacy Target | Bolt Target | Target as % of Balance |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $25,000 | $1,500 | $1,250 | — | 5.0% – 6.0% |
| $50,000 | $3,000 | $3,000 | $3,000 | 6.0% |
| $100,000 | $5,000 | $6,000 | — | 5.0% – 6.0% |
Expressed as a percentage of account balance, FundedNext's futures targets land between 5% and 6%. That's lower than most CFD challenge targets. But keep in mind: the drawdown on futures is trailing EOD, which is significantly tighter than a static 10% drawdown. The lower target comes with less margin for error.
The Legacy 100K has the highest absolute target at $6,000, but also the highest drawdown limit at $3,000. The ratio matters more than the raw number.
How Can the Consistency Rule Raise Your Futures Target?
FundedNext's 40% consistency rule on futures is the piece most traders overlook when planning their challenge. It doesn't just constrain how you trade. It can actively move your profit target higher.
The rule: no single trading day's profit can exceed 40% of the total profit target.
If it does, FundedNext automatically recalculates your target upward. The formula is simple:
New target = your best single-day profit / 0.40
Here's a real scenario. You're trading a $50,000 Legacy account with a $3,000 target. The 40% daily cap is $1,200. You catch a big move on NQ and bank $1,500 in one session. FundedNext now recalculates: $1,500 / 0.40 = $3,750. Your new profit target is $3,750.
You didn't just have a good day. You made your challenge harder.
This rule applies to:
- Legacy Challenge (during challenge phase)
- Rapid FundedNext Account (during funded phase)
- Bolt (during both challenge and funded phases)
It does NOT apply to:
- Rapid Challenge phase (no consistency rule at all)
- Legacy FundedNext Account (funded phase is unrestricted)
The Rapid challenge is the only futures model where you can have one massive green day and pass. On Legacy and Bolt, you need to spread your profits across multiple sessions or risk inflating your target.
My approach: I keep daily profits under 35% of the target. That gives me a 5% buffer before the rule kicks in. On a $50K Legacy, that means capping at roughly $1,050 per day.
What Is the 15% Challenge Phase Profit Share?
FundedNext has a feature that no other major prop firm offers: you can earn money during the challenge phase itself.
On Stellar 1-Step and Stellar 2-Step accounts, FundedNext pays you 15% of the profits you made during the challenge. Not 15% of your funded profits. 15% of the profits you earned while proving yourself.
The timing differs by model:
- Stellar 2-Step: The 15% challenge profit share is paid with your first withdrawal from the funded account.
- Stellar 1-Step: The 15% challenge profit share is paid with your third withdrawal from the funded account.
So if you pass a $50,000 Stellar 2-Step challenge and your Phase 1 profit was exactly $4,000 (the 8% target), that's $600 extra from the challenge phase alone. Pass Phase 2 with $2,500 in profits, and that's another $375. Total challenge bonus: $975.
This doesn't apply to Stellar Lite, Stellar Instant, or any futures model. It's exclusive to the 1-Step and 2-Step.
One catch: you only receive this 15% if you reach the FundedNext Pro scale-up program (after January 12, 2026, the new Pro criteria apply). It's retroactive, so you don't lose it if you hit the milestone later, but it's not paid out automatically upon passing the challenge.
What Happens After You're Funded? (No Target, But There Are Thresholds)
Once you pass the challenge on any FundedNext model, there is no profit target in the funded phase. You trade, you profit, you withdraw. But "no profit target" doesn't mean "withdraw anything, anytime." There are minimum withdrawal thresholds and timing rules.
CFD Funded Phase
FundedNext CFD funded accounts have these payout conditions:
- Stellar 2-Step: First payout after 21 days. Subsequent payouts every 14 days.
- Stellar 1-Step: First payout immediately. Subsequent payouts every 5 business days.
- Stellar Lite: First payout after 21 days. Subsequent payouts every 14 days.
- Stellar Instant: Available anytime after meeting tier requirements.
Minimum withdrawal is $20 for USDT (TRC20/ERC20) and $50 for USDC and RiseWorks. There's a processing fee of up to 3.5% on all withdrawals.
Futures Funded Phase
FundedNext Futures funded accounts have different thresholds:
Rapid FundedNext Account:
- No benchmark days required
- Minimum withdrawal: $250 (25K/50K) or $500 (100K)
- Before your 5th withdrawal, caps apply: $800 (25K), $1,500 (50K), $2,500 (100K) per cycle
- After 5 withdrawals, caps are removed
Legacy FundedNext Account:
- Minimum 5 benchmark days before first withdrawal
- Benchmark profit: $100 (25K), $200 (50K/100K) per qualifying day
- $500 in new profit required between withdrawal requests
- Before 30 benchmark days: up to 50% of profit, capped at $3,000–$6,000 per cycle
- After 30 benchmark days: unrestricted withdrawals
The Legacy funded phase has the most restrictions. Those benchmark days are real. You need 5 profitable days of at least $100–$200 before you can pull any money. And even then, the first 30 benchmark days cap your withdrawals.
How Do FundedNext Profit Targets Compare to Competitors?
FundedNext's targets sit in the middle of the prop firm landscape. Not the easiest, not the hardest. Here's how they stack up against the most common alternatives.
| Firm / Model | Phase 1 Target | Phase 2 Target | Funded Target | Drawdown Type | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FundedNext 2-Step | 8% | 5% | None | Static 10% | 15% challenge profit share |
| FTMO 2-Step | 10% | 5% | None | Static 10% | Higher P1 than FundedNext |
| E8 Funding 2-Step | 8% | 5% | None | Static 8% | Same targets, tighter drawdown |
| FundedNext 1-Step | 10% | — | None | Static 6% | 15% challenge profit share |
| FundedNext Rapid (50K) | $3,000 | — | None | Trailing EOD | No consistency in challenge |
| Topstep (50K) | $3,000 | — | None | Trailing EOD | Monthly subscription fee |
| Apex (50K) | $3,000 | — | None | Trailing EOD | Monthly subscription fee |
The standout difference on the CFD side: FTMO requires 10% in Phase 1, while FundedNext only requires 8%. That's 20% less profit you need to generate. On a $100,000 account, that's $2,000 less in required profit. Significant.
On the futures side, FundedNext Rapid and Legacy targets are comparable to Topstep and Apex at the 50K level. All three firms cluster around $3,000. The difference is in the fee structure. Topstep and Apex charge monthly subscriptions. FundedNext charges a one-time fee. If you need more than a month or two to pass, FundedNext is cheaper.
E8 Funding matches FundedNext's 8%/5% split on 2-Step challenges, but E8 runs a tighter 8% overall drawdown. FundedNext gives you 10%. That extra 2% of drawdown room can be the difference between surviving a losing streak and breaching.
What's the Fastest Way to Hit FundedNext Profit Targets?
There's no trick to hitting profit targets. But there are approaches that consistently work better than others for each FundedNext model.
CFD Models: Stellar 2-Step and 1-Step
The Stellar 2-Step is the most forgiving model. You have 10% drawdown, a 5% daily loss limit, and no time limit. The 8% Phase 1 target on a $50K account is $4,000.
My approach: risk 1% per trade ($500), target a 2:1 reward-to-risk ratio. That means each winner nets $1,000 and each loser costs $500. At a 50% win rate, you'd need roughly 12 trades to clear $4,000. With 5 minimum trading days, that's about 2-3 trades per day.
Don't try to clear the target in 5 days unless your strategy genuinely hits those numbers. Most traders who rush the minimum trading days end up overleveraging.
CFD Models: Stellar Lite
Stellar Lite has a lower Phase 2 target (4% vs 5%) but also a tighter drawdown (8% vs 10%) and smaller daily loss limit (4% vs 5%). The risk-to-reward math shifts. You have less room for error, so smaller position sizes are the move even if it takes longer.
Futures: Rapid Challenge
The Rapid challenge is the only FundedNext futures model with no consistency rule during the challenge phase. If your strategy has occasional home-run days, this is where to deploy it. You can technically pass in a single session if you nail a big move.
With a $50K Rapid at $3,000 target and a $2,000 drawdown limit, you're working with a 1.5:1 target-to-drawdown ratio. Tight. Trade small, build a cushion, then take slightly larger positions once you have profit buffer.
Futures: Legacy Challenge
Legacy has the consistency rule during the challenge. On the $50K, your daily cap is $1,200 (40% of $3,000). Plan for at least 4-5 winning days to clear the target while staying under that cap.
I trade NQ micros on Legacy challenges. A single MNQ point is $2, so a 100-point NQ move on 5 MNQ contracts nets $1,000, which stays safely under the $1,200 daily cap.
Futures: Bolt Challenge
Bolt is the tightest model. $50K only, $3,000 target, $1,000 daily loss limit, and the consistency rule applies during both challenge and funded phases. It's also the cheapest futures challenge at $69.99–$99.99. The low price reflects the difficulty. Treat this as a high-discipline, multi-week project, not a quick pass.
Frequently Asked Questions
What Is the FundedNext Profit Target for the Stellar 2-Step?
FundedNext's Stellar 2-Step requires 8% of the initial balance in Phase 1 and 5% in Phase 2. On the most popular $50,000 size, that's $4,000 in Phase 1 and $2,500 in Phase 2. FundedNext does not have a profit target once you reach the funded phase.
Does FundedNext Have a Profit Target on Funded Accounts?
No. FundedNext does not impose a profit target on any funded account across all seven models (Stellar 2-Step, 1-Step, Lite, Instant, Rapid, Legacy, Bolt). Once funded, you trade and withdraw based on minimum thresholds and payout schedules, not a profit target.
What Is the FundedNext Profit Target for Futures?
FundedNext futures profit targets are fixed dollar amounts: Rapid is $1,500 (25K), $3,000 (50K), and $5,000 (100K). Legacy is $1,250 (25K), $3,000 (50K), and $6,000 (100K). Bolt is $3,000 on the 50K account, which is the only size available. These targets apply only during the challenge phase.
Did FundedNext Change the Legacy $50K Profit Target?
Yes. FundedNext raised the Legacy $50K profit target from $2,500 to $3,000 after March 16, 2026. Challenges purchased before that date still had the $2,500 target. New purchases carry the higher $3,000 target with no change to the drawdown limit.
How Does the FundedNext Consistency Rule Affect Profit Targets?
FundedNext's 40% consistency rule can raise your futures profit target automatically. If any single day's profit exceeds 40% of the target, FundedNext recalculates the target by dividing your best day's profit by 0.40. On a $50K Legacy with a $3,000 target, earning more than $1,200 in one day triggers the increase.
Can You Earn Money During FundedNext's Challenge Phase?
Yes, but only on Stellar 1-Step and 2-Step accounts. FundedNext pays 15% of the profits earned during the challenge phase. On the Stellar 2-Step, this 15% is paid with your first funded withdrawal. On the Stellar 1-Step, it's paid with the third withdrawal. FundedNext does not offer challenge-phase payouts on Lite, Instant, or futures models.
What Is the Easiest FundedNext Model to Pass?
FundedNext's Stellar 2-Step has the most favorable target-to-drawdown ratio on the CFD side: 8% target in Phase 1 against a 10% maximum drawdown. On the futures side, FundedNext's Rapid challenge has no consistency rule during the evaluation phase, making it the most flexible futures option for traders with uneven daily returns.
How Does FundedNext's Profit Target Compare to FTMO?
FundedNext's Stellar 2-Step requires 8% in Phase 1 compared to FTMO's 10%. That's 20% less profit required on the same account size. Phase 2 targets are identical at 5% for both firms. FundedNext also pays 15% of challenge profits, which FTMO does not offer.
Is There a Minimum Withdrawal Amount on FundedNext Funded Accounts?
Yes. FundedNext CFD funded accounts have a minimum withdrawal of $20 (USDT) or $50 (USDC/RiseWorks). FundedNext Futures funded accounts have a minimum of $250 for Rapid (25K/50K) and $500 for Rapid 100K. Legacy requires $250 minimum plus $500 in new profit between withdrawal requests.
Does the FundedNext Stellar Instant Have a Profit Target?
No. FundedNext's Stellar Instant account has no profit target at any stage. There's no challenge phase, no evaluation, and no target in the funded phase. The only constraint on FundedNext Stellar Instant is a 6% trailing drawdown with no daily loss limit.
The bottom line: FundedNext profit targets range from 4% to 10% on CFD and $1,250 to $6,000 on futures, with no target once you're funded on any model. The Stellar 2-Step's 8%/5% split with a 10% drawdown is one of the more generous setups in the industry, and the 15% challenge profit share is genuinely unique. On the futures side, watch out for the consistency rule inflating your target on Legacy and Bolt. If you want maximum flexibility on a futures challenge, FundedNext's Rapid is the cleanest path. If you want the cheapest entry, Bolt works, but expect a grind.
