New with RaiseMyFunds
RaiseMyFunds is a project in which the aim is to find experienced traders in the financial markets. To ensure that traders possess all the qualities we’re looking for, we use a two-stage evaluation process.
The Challenge and The Confirmation are the two stages of the challenge. The process is specifically designed to detect a trader’s talents.
We know that a trader’s path is full of pitfalls. Our weekly summaries and daily streaming service with a real trader are there to guide our traders.
Created by the RaiseFX broker, RaiseMyFunds has a Category 1 FSP license issued by the FSCA, the South African regulatory authority, offering peace of mind and confidence to its traders. In addition, the company has already been recognized by the International Business Magazine as well as the World Business Outlook for the quality of its customer service and its exceptional trading conditions. Finally, do not simply rely on our writings but rather on the testimonials of confidence of our traders by joining the Discord community, the daily live trading on Kick or by simply consulting our TrustPilot (RaiseMyFunds TrustPilot).
We accept all customers who are at least 18 years old and who do not reside in one of the countries mentioned in the list of banned countries available in our general terms and conditions.
Furthermore, our services are not available to anyone with a criminal record linked to financial crime or terrorism.
RaiseMyFunds is not a broker, but a trading evaluation company. After passing a rigorous 2-step evaluation process on demo accounts, our customers have access to real accounts.
A RaiseMyFunds live account is an account subject to real market conditions from liquidity providers. RaiseMyFunds uses its own discretion to fund traders’ trades according to its risk appetite.
That’s right! RaiseMyFunds is the prop firm environment of the RaiseFX broker.
Evaluation Process
To become a RaiseMyFunds trader, we offer a wide range of two-step Challenges. With the most favorable conditions in the industry, combined with transparent and fair rules, we guarantee you an optimal experience. Steps to take: Step 1: The Challenge A demo account with fictitious capital on which you trade in line with our trading objectives. You’ll get an account offering the best market conditions, the best commissions and the lowest spreads. If you meet all the conditions and respect the rules of the challenge, you move on to phase 2, the final stage of our evaluation. Step 2: The Confirmation The aim of this stage is to check your rigor and consistency on the financial markets one last time. The objectives are easier to achieve than in Step 1, and subject to the same rules. Once you’ve completed all these steps, you’re a RaiseMyFunds trader. You’ll receive a contract to sign before you can fully embark on your new adventure.
The second stage is the final evaluation stage. The aim of this stage is to test your consistency. We need to make sure that your strategy is valid in the long term, while maintaining discipline. Step 2 follows the same restrictions and benefits as Step 1, but with a target reduced by half. Once you’ve completed this step, you can click on « Get Funded » in your client area, and we’ll send you an e-mail so that you can complete your identity and sign the contract for your RaiseMyFunds account. And now you’re ready for a trader’s adventure!
Once you become a trader at RaiseMyFunds, we know we can trust your trading skills and your ability to properly manage your risks, which is why we offer you the best market conditions in the industry, unbeatable spreads, a wide variety of assets and low commissions.
There’s no pressure to meet targets, so you can trade with a free mind.
The only rule is, of course, to respect the maximum loss allowed (daily and total) which, as you’ve understood, is the most important rule to ensure your quality as a trader.
You will then have the opportunity to share the profits made on your trading account with RaiseMyFunds. You will need to trade for a minimum of 14 days on your funded account, after which you have several options:
– Withdraw your profit sharing made on your funded account.
– As soon as 10% of profits have been reached, you can « Scale-Up » and reach a new stage of our Scaling Plan. In addition, as soon as you « Scale-Up » or « Payout » for the first time, you’ll receive a refund of the challenge fee in your virtual wallet.
Your profit share starts at 85% and increases at 90% from your first scale-up or payout.
Step by step, you’ll be able to gradually increase your capital up to $1,000,000!
Rules
To reach the goal during your challenge phases, you have no minimum number of days to trade, you simply have to respect the 45% rule.
According to our rules, this is set at 5% of the initial account balance. The rule states that at any time of the day (CET – Central European Summer Time), the result of all closed positions, added together with currently open floating P/Ls (Profits and Losses), must not reach the value of the specified daily loss limit. The calculation formula : For example, in the case of the RaiseMyFunds challenge with an initial account balance of 50,000 $, the maximum daily loss limit is 2,500$. If you happen to lose 1,000$ in your trades, your account must not fall by more than 1,500$ that day. Nor should it fall to 1,500$ in your open floating losses. The limit includes commissions and swaps. Conversely, if you earn 2,500$ in one day, you can afford to lose 5,000$ in the same day, but no more.
Current daily loss = result of this day’s closed positions + result of open positions.
At no time during the account’s trading period may the trading account equity fall below 90% of the initial account balance. For a RaiseMyFunds Challenge with a balance of $100,000, this means that the lowest possible account Equity can be $90,000. Again, this is the sum of closed and open positions (account equity, not balance). The calculation logic is the same as for the Maximum Daily Loss; the only difference is that it’s not limited to one day, but to the entire duration of the account’s trading period. The limit includes commissions and swaps. 10% of the initial account balance gives the trader enough room to prove that his account is suitable for investment. It’s a buffer that should keep the trader on track even if there have been some initial losses. The investor is assured that the trader’s account cannot fall below 90% of its value under any circumstances.
The profit target in The Challenge is set at 10% of the initial balance and 5% in The Confirmation. A Profit Target means that a trader achieves a profit on the sum of closed positions on the allocated trading account at any time during the Unlimited Trading Period. Please also note that to proceed to the next phase, all trades must be closed. For example: if you trade with an account balance of $100,000, your Profit Target is $10,000 for the RaiseMyFunds challenge, then $5,000 in The Confirmation.
Fees are refunded on the first « Payout » or « Scale-Up » and paid directly into your virtual wallet.
Specifications
You can take advantage of economic news, but we advise you to do so sparingly. When economic data, central bank announcements and political events are released, the market is extremely volatile and unpredictable. So be careful!
In order to validate the profit objective for each stage of the challenge and for your payout request to be validated, 45% of these profits must not come from a single day of trading activity.
It goes without saying that you suffer NO penalty if this rule is not followed, just continue to trade consistently and consistently until it is.
You don’t have to close your positions overnight. Note, however, that you will be subject to swap fees.
Even if RaiseMyFunds uses demo accounts during the Challenge and Confirmation phases, we only accept viable strategies on real trading conditions that can be executed on the markets.
All High Frequency Trading (HFT) and arbitrage strategies are prohibited on all our accounts.
On the other hand, once you become a RaiseMyFunds trader, your funded account will be on a real server and therefore subject to the requirements imposed by liquidity providers.
To put it simply, ask yourself, « Is my trading ethical? »
If the answer is yes, you can have peace of mind knowing that your trading account will never be closed. If not, we’ll receive rapid alerts and will be forced to close your account.
If you violate any of the trading objectives, the account in question will be automatically invalidated and will no longer be allowed to continue trading. You can always start afresh and order a brand new RaiseMyFunds challenge if you wish to become our trader. If you fail to meet the trading objectives, the initial fee you paid for the challenge will be forfeited. We don’t offer special discounts for failed challenges because we don’t have a time limit – we give you all the time you need to succeed in our simulated challenge. Take your time!
You can claim your share of the profits from the 14th day onwards, starting from just $50 in profits. Once the payment has been made, you’ll have to wait another 14 days after the opening of your next trade to make another withdrawal.
Note that all profits are credited directly to a virtual wallet, so you have the choice of withdrawing the profits, or using them to start a new Challenge (see maximum allocation conditions).

If your account meets the eligibility criteria, you can request a « Scale-up » directly in the customer area.
