Essential info on account setup, trading basics, and common queries to kickstart your prop trading journey.
Please refer to the table below for detailed requirements.
We offer Addon features to meet all traders’ requirements. You can apply double leverage, weekend holding, no stop loss, and share 90% of profits with us!
However, for large-size accounts (100k, 200k, 400k challenge accounts), we don’t have addon features due to risk control concerns.
But you can request them for free if you trade a live account for over 2 months. The calculation will start from the date we issued the live account.
In the SIEG Challenge, you’re welcome to use the scalping strategy — no worries about canceled trades if you take profits through scalping.
However, keep in mind that we have a minimum of 5 trading days. This rule ensures that traders don’t hit the target by sheer luck but then fail to maintain the live account for at least 1 week.
We value consistent profit-taking, so here’s the requirement: Achieve a net Daily P&L on 3 separate days equal to or greater than 1% of your starting balance.
For example, if you’re trading on a $400,000 account, you need to trade for at least 5 days, with 3 separate days’ net P&L totaling at least $4,000.
If you hit the target but didn't meet daily PnL requirement, you will receive a new challenge account to restart. If you meet to soft breach in phase2, we will issue a phase2 challenge account, instead of begin from phase1.
At SiegFund, we are excited to announce that news trading is fully permitted within our challenge parameters. We understand the potential that news events hold for significant market movements, and we encourage our traders to seize opportunities on volatility.

If the Company detects that your trading constitutes Prohibited Trading, your participation in the program will be terminated and may include forfeiture of any fees paid to the Company.

At SiegFund, we allow and encourage the use of Expert Advisors (EA) and high-frequency trading. We believe in empowering our traders to utilize legitimate methods to seize opportunities and profit from the market. This is a significant advantage, as many of our competitors do not permit such strategies.
In the forex trading market, a trader’s costs typically include the spread and transaction fees, which are collected by brokers as operational service fees. Our competitors charge $3-7 per lot, but at SiegFund, we don’t charge you any fees to place an order.

Upon purchasing an Assessment, you will receive access to a trader dashboard where you can monitor your Assessment and Live Accounts. The dashboard is updated every time we calculate metrics, which occurs roughly every 60 seconds. It is your responsibility to monitor your breach levels.
To buy an assessment/challenge account, you need to be at least 18 years old or meet the minimum legal age requirement in your country.
Subject to complying with relevant laws and regulations, traders from any country, except those listed by OFAC, are eligible to participate in our program.
We offer risk management software that is synchronized with the accounts we create. This enables us to analyze your performance in real time for accomplishments or rule violations. Therefore, it is a must for you to use the account that we provide to you.
Yes. If you do not place a trade within 14 days after purchasing an account, we will consider you inactive and your account will be closed. So please be reminded that the purchase button you clicked on the checkout page is essentially a Starting Gun.
Please ensure that all trades are closed by 3:45pm EST on Friday. Any trades that remain open after this time will be automatically closed. It's important to note that this is considered a soft breach, and you will be able to resume trading once the markets reopen.
We strongly emphasize the importance of sound risk management by implementing stop losses. Therefore, it is mandatory to have a stop loss on every trade. If you neglect to set a stop loss when placing a trade or order, we will automatically close the trade. Please note that this is considered a soft breach of the rule, and you will still be able to continue trading in your account.
