02Challenge Types & Pricing
Classic: one step. The profit target is 10% on a simulated account, with a static loss limit of 5% below the starting balance and a daily loss limit of 3% or 5% below the start-of-day equity (UTC day), chosen at purchase (3% by default). Both limits are measured on equity, including unrealized profit and loss. There is no time limit, no minimum trading days and no consistency rule; one trade within 60 days of activation keeps the account active. Sizes are $5,000, $10,000, $25,000, $50,000 and $100,000, in ten configurations: five reward splits (60/40, 70/30, 80/20, 90/10, 100/0) and two daily loss limits. A different size, split or daily loss limit is a new purchase, and a trader may hold up to two active accounts: one $50,000 or $100,000 account plus one $5,000, $10,000 or $25,000 account.
Instant Funded: a $25,000 account with no evaluation and a fixed 80/20 split, from $750. The daily loss limit is 3%, and the trailing loss limit is 5% or 8% below the end-of-day equity high-water mark, chosen at registration. Rewards are weekly from the day of registration. Registration is limited to 100 traders for now; $50,000 and $100,000 accounts are listed as coming soon. An optional Pro challenge, chosen at registration, sets the Pro size at 2.5x, 5x or 10x the account ($62,500, $125,000 or $250,000).
Pro: on $50,000 and $100,000 Classic accounts the firm may, at its discretion, promote a trader to a Pro account of up to $1,000,000 in demo capital at no additional cost, with the split unchanged. The Pro rules are at least 90 days, a 6% return target, a 1.75 Calmar ratio, a 5% daily loss limit and an 8% end-of-day trailing loss limit, with daily-return consistency and martingale detection; weekly rewards double while the Pro challenge runs.
03Trading Rules Analysis
One account trades every market: 500+ instruments, including 34 crypto pairs on Hyperliquid, 28 forex pairs, 6 commodities (gold, silver, copper, platinum, WTI crude oil, natural gas), 3 index futures, 1,001 US stocks, 36 ETFs and 20 equity futures. The platform is the Vanta Trading Desk, in the browser on desktop or phone. Manual trading, algorithms, Expert Advisors and bots are allowed for the trader's own strategy, news trading is allowed, and positions can be held overnight and over the weekend in every market. Third-party signals and copy-trading services are not allowed, and each account runs its own strategy, with no mirroring or opposing positions across a trader's own accounts. Buying power is gross notional exposure against equity, checked per pair, per asset class and for the whole portfolio. On Classic accounts the class limits are 10x on crypto, 30x on forex, 6x on commodities, 8x on indices and 4x on equities, with 40x across the portfolio; Pro accounts have 12x, 40x, 8x, 10x and 6x, with 50x across the portfolio. Simulated costs include transaction fees of 0.03% on crypto, 0.005% on commodities and 0.01% on equities, none on forex and indices, a swap of 3% a year on forex, and 3% a year to borrow stock for shorts.
04Payout Process
Rewards are paid weekly, from the day a Classic evaluation is passed and from the day of registration on Instant Funded, at the split chosen at purchase (80% fixed on Instant Funded). There is no payout allowance, extraction limit or minimum. Rewards are calculated on eligible profit net of prior losses and payouts, so profit is never paid twice, and a payout never reduces equity or moves a loss limit. They are paid by bank transfer in USD or in USDC onchain, and every reward is listed on the firm's public payout ledger. No identity verification is needed to buy or trade the evaluation; it is completed through Stripe when the scaled account is activated, to receive rewards.
05True Cost Analysis
Classic is one fee, paid once, set by size, split and daily loss limit. With the 3% daily loss limit, a $5,000 account costs $33 at 60/40, $36 at 70/30, $42 at 80/20, $52 at 90/10 and $67 at 100/0, and a $100,000 account costs $549, $599, $699, $849 and $1,099. With the 5% daily loss limit, a $5,000 account costs $46, $49, $55, $64 and $79, and a $100,000 account costs $749, $799, $899, $1,049 and $1,299. The $10,000, $25,000 and $50,000 accounts are in between, on the firm's pricing page. Instant Funded costs $750 with the 5% trailing limit and $1,000 with the 8% limit; with the optional Pro challenge it costs $800, $875 or $1,075 on the 5% limit and $1,075, $1,175 or $1,400 on the 8% limit. The fee is a participation fee, not a deposit, and is not refunded on passing; it is refunded in full while no trade has been placed. The firm's pages state no activation fee either way.
06Who Should Use Vanta Trading?
Vanta Trading suits traders who want one account across crypto, forex, equities, indices and commodities, a choice of reward split and daily loss limit at purchase, and no time limit or consistency rule on the evaluation. Before buying, compare the ten Classic configurations: a higher split costs more, and the split, size and daily loss limit are fixed once the account is bought.
