On-chain payouts

Paid to traders, measured on-chain

This firm does not appear in the on-chain payout aggregator.

Only 39 of the 102 firms in the census appear in the on-chain aggregator. A firm that pays by bank transfer does not show up here, and that does not mean it does not pay. It means this figure cannot be checked on a blockchain.

The firm may publish these on its own site. We show them apart because they are not verified at the source.

These are the rules the firm publishes for all its accounts. Where a specific model says otherwise, the model wins, and it appears below with its own source.

Leverage, commissions and instruments

Not comparable between firms, so not a sortable column. 6 firms publish commissions in three units: per side, per round trip, and prose per model. Per side versus round trip is a factor of two. Each figure keeps the name and unit the firm gives it.

When the daily limit resets

  • reset window from 23:30 to 23:59 CET

Read, not quoted. This is our reading of the rule, not the firm’s own wording, and it is recorded in Spanish. Treat it as a paraphrase. It carries no source link, so there is nothing here to check it against.

What counts as a trading day

  • a day counts as a trading day when at least one trade stays open for a minimum of 1 minute (60 seconds)

Where BrightFunded contradicts itself

Two pages of this firm say different things about the same rule. We do not pick one: both readings are below, as the census recorded them. 46 of the 102 firms have at least one.

  • rules_firmwide

    their sheet has EAs as allowed, but the forbidden-practices article includes 'Use of Automated Software, AI, or High-Speed Trading Tools' as a forbidden category, and finishes: 'Any system designed to execute orders with superhuman speed or to exploit market inefficiencies on a MECHANICAL BASIS is not allowed'

    restrictive: 'mechanical basis' covers any systematic EA, and then the book does not fit

    narrowed down: the paragraph talks about superhuman speed and exploiting inefficiencies, that is HFT and arbitrage, and an EA running a normal strategy does not fall in

    it is not chosen. It stays as an open contradiction and the sheet is not switched to allowed without an affirmative quote

    look for an article of theirs that speaks about EAs positively; the help-centre index has 16 rule articles that were not dumped one by one

Questions about BrightFunded

Is BrightFunded worth checking, and where do these numbers come from?

We do not rate firms. What we can tell you is what it publishes and where we read it: 3 account models on this page, 12 official pages of theirs cited, and 53 dated readings behind the figures. Anything they do not publish is shown as a gap, not filled in.

How long has BrightFunded been operating?

2 years, by their own account. Only 35 of the 102 firms in the census publish it. It is not a guarantee of anything, but a firm that has been paying for years is a different bet from one that opened last quarter.

How much does a BrightFunded challenge cost?

From $47 for a $5,000 account up to $997 for a $200,000 one, across their 3 models. A cheap fee on a small account is not a cheap account, so the table on this page keeps size and price together, and every figure links to the page it was read on. The fee buys the attempt, not the account.

Can you trade the news at BrightFunded?

With conditions. BrightFunded allows it but fences it, usually with a window of minutes either side of a high-impact release. The condition is what matters, so read it on their page before you size a position around a number.

What profit split does BrightFunded pay?

Up to 80% on their best model, not on all of them, so check the model you are buying in the table above. A split only pays out if you also clear their payout conditions.
