    • Your drawdown floor is set at the daily reset and stays fixed until the next one.

    Built by Crypto Traders. Engineered for Serious Traders.

    Most crypto trading platforms were built for forex. ZoneX was built specifically for crypto.

    Our evaluations run on real crypto markets with transparent rules and a professional crypto-native trading environment — designed to evaluate trading skill fairly rather than relying on restrictive rule mechanics.

    Professional Crypto Native Trading Platform

    Every challenge includes the full ZoneX terminal — the same tools you keep using once you are funded.

    What traders want to know first

    One Reset. One Rule Set.

    Every trader asks the same three questions before buying a challenge:

    • Will the rules change?
    • Will I get paid if I perform?
    • Can my account be closed arbitrarily?

    Our answer is simple: no surprises.

    Fixed Rules. Locked In.

    • Every rule is published before you start your challenge.
    • Daily loss limit of 2.5% (2% Disciplined Trader, 5% High Conviction), fixed at the 02:00 Europe/Zurich reset and never recalculated intraday. Your total drawdown floor is 10% (15% High Conviction) and moves upward only at that same daily reset.
    • No mid-challenge changes. No retroactive enforcement.

    Every Account Action Has a Reason.

    • Any account action references a published rule or documented compliance, risk, or security requirement.
    • Trade history and rule references available on request.

    Published Disbursement Process.

    • Twice-daily disbursement windows for incentive-eligible accounts.
    • Clear qualification requirements published in advance.
    • KYC completed once.
    • Disbursements are processed according to the published schedule, subject to applicable compliance and verification requirements.

    The same rules when you buy. The same rules when you pass. The same rules when you get paid.

    How it works

    Control a large trading account for a small one-time fee.

    Pay a small one-time fee to control an evaluation (challenge) account up to $400K. Trade in a simulated account using live market data while following the profit target and risk-management rules of your chosen challenge. Traders who pass are eligible for an incentive-eligible account and may receive performance-based payments of up to 90% of trading profits.

    1. 01Pick your account size and type & checkout

      Instant

      Choose the account size you want to control and a challenge type. Pay a small one-time fee — no KYC, no subscription, no setup required.

    2. 02Receive your evaluation account

      Within minutes

      Your evaluation credentials arrive within minutes of checkout. Log into the ZoneX Terminal and trade a simulated account on live market data — no API keys or personal exchange account required for the challenge.

    3. 03Trade the evaluation

      No time limit

      Trade according to the profit target, drawdown limits and minimum trading-day rules of the challenge you selected. No deadline, no weekend or news restrictions.

    4. 04Pass & fulfill requirements

      After passing

      After passing the evaluation and fulfilling all requirements, your account is reviewed and prepared for activation.

    5. 05Funded account activated

      Same day

      Your incentive-eligible account is activated as soon as you meet the requirements. Start trading immediately, keep up to 90% of profits, and receive regular disbursements.

    Pay a small one-time fee to control a large account, pass the evaluation, and you can be live in weeks. The only fixed variable is your own trading pace.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Common questions about crypto trading evaluation and how ZoneX works

    Quick Glossary

    Key terms you'll see across the FAQ and challenge pages.

    Phase 2
    The second evaluation phase in a Two-Step challenge. It starts automatically once you pass Phase 1, with its own profit target and the same drawdown and risk rules.
    Incentive-eligible account
    The account you receive after passing a challenge and completing KYC. It is the account where live trading performance can qualify for payouts.
    Minimum profitable trading days
    The smallest number of days on the incentive-eligible account that must close with net positive profit before you can request a payout.
    Daily drawdown
    The maximum permitted loss from your daily starting balance within a single 24-hour period. Breaching it ends the challenge.
    Total drawdown
    The maximum permitted loss from your highest recorded equity during the challenge. The floor only updates upward at the daily reset.
    Challenge account
    The simulated evaluation account you trade during the challenge. It uses live market data and follows the rules of your selected challenge type.
    One-Step verification
    A single-phase evaluation. You pass by hitting one profit target while meeting all other rules.
    Two-Step verification
    A two-phase evaluation split into two smaller profit targets. Phase 2 starts immediately after Phase 1 is passed.
