QT Instant pays 100% — the whole profit, nothing withheld. Four more routes alongside it, from $5, backed by the broker Quant Tekel.

CryptoAbout QT Funded
QT Funded launched in October 2023 under Alex and James Manto, as the proprietary trading arm of the broker Quant Tekel. That is a real structural difference rather than a marketing line: the firm trades on its own broker infrastructure. It holds on Trustpilot across reviews. Trading runs on MT5, cTrader or TradeLocker, payouts go out by bank transfer or crypto, and commission is a flat $4 per lot round turn on every instrument.
Five plans, and the differences are real. QT One is a single 6% step at 70%, passable in a day. QT Two is 8% then 5% at 80%, and the only plan reaching $200,000. QT Instant funds you immediately and pays 100%. QT Power is a two-step at 6% per phase that lifts the news rule and pays on demand. QT 1 Step BNPL splits the cost into a small fee now and an activation payment within 7 days of passing.
The 100% split is genuine, and it is worth understanding what pays for it. QT Instant asks for a 30% consistency score at withdrawal, a stop-loss on every position within 60 seconds, and floating loss under 1% per instrument. The 6% drawdown trails your highest recorded balance or equity and never moves back down — and once you take a withdrawal it locks at your starting balance. A 3% buffer means you need 8% profit before the first 5% payout clears.
QT One is the opposite proposition and probably the one most traders should look at first. No consistency score, no stop-loss rule, no news restriction, no minimum days in the evaluation, and payouts every 4 days. You give up thirty points of split for that freedom. QT Power sits between them at 80% with news trading unrestricted and payouts on demand rather than on a cycle.
Two rules apply across every plan and shape how you trade more than the targets do. During any evaluation your exposure cannot exceed 75% of your daily drawdown limit — reach it and the Risk Team can deny funding and reset you to Phase 1. And floating loss is capped at 1% on QT One, QT Two and QT Instant, or 2% on the BNPL plan, measured on unrealised loss rather than closed trades.
Weekends are closed properly. You can hold a position through, but you cannot open a new one or move a stop-loss until markets reopen, and a TP or SL touched while the market is shut fills at the next available price rather than your level. A black swan during closure invalidates the trade entirely, profit or loss.
Funded capital caps at $300,000 combined, with Instant capital capped separately at $100,000 that counts toward the same total. At either limit you cannot trade the same currency pair across multiple funded accounts. Evaluation accounts, by contrast, are completely unrestricted — hold as many as you like and run them simultaneously.
Programs & Modes
QT One
A single 6% step with no minimum trading days — it can be passed in a day. A 3% trailing daily limit and a 6% static max drawdown, with no consistency score at any stage. Once funded, combined floating loss must stay under 1%, and payouts land every 4 days at 70%. Sizes 5K through 100K, from $44.00 with code GUIDE.
Profit Split: 70%
Target 6% | Max Loss 6% (Static) | Daily 3% | Leverage 1:30 | Min 4 days | Payouts 4 Days
QT Two
The structured two-phase route: 8% then 5%, four trading days in each phase, under a 4% fixed daily limit and an 8% static drawdown. During the evaluation your exposure cannot exceed 75% of the daily limit. Once funded you need a stop-loss within 60 seconds, and profit is capped at 5% per cycle. Sizes 10K through 200K, from $28.00 with code GUIDE.
Profit Split: 80%
Target 8% - 5% | Max Loss 8% (Static) | Daily 4% | Leverage 1:100 | Min 4 days | Payouts 14 Days
QT Instant
Funded from day one and the only plan paying 100%. A 3% fixed daily limit and a 6% trailing drawdown that never moves back down. The conditions are real: a stop-loss within 60 seconds, 1% floating loss per instrument, a 30% consistency score, and a drawdown that locks at your starting balance on withdrawal — with a 3% buffer meaning 8% profit before the first 5% payout. Sizes 5K through 100K, from $30.00 with code GUIDE.
Profit Split: 100%
No Target | Max Loss 6% (EOD Trailing) | Daily 3% | Leverage 1:30 | Min 4 days | Payouts 4 Days
QT Power
Two phases at 6% each with the standard news rule lifted entirely. A 4% fixed daily limit, an 8% static drawdown and four trading days per phase. Payouts are on demand once you clear the minimum days and a 35% consistency score, at an 80% split. Sizes 5K through 100K, from $14.00 with code GUIDE.
Profit Split: 80%
Target 6% - 6% | Max Loss 8% (Static) | Daily 4% | Leverage 1:100 | Min 4 days | Payouts 1 Day
QT 1 Step BNPL
Buy now, pay later: a small fee up front, then an activation payment within 7 days of passing. One 6% target with no minimum days, a 3% trailing daily limit and a 6% trailing max drawdown, plus a 2% floating loss ceiling throughout. Funded at 80% with a 14-day cycle, five minimum days and a 20% consistency score. Sizes 5K through 100K, from $5.00 with code GUIDE.
Profit Split: 80%
Target 6% | Max Loss 6% (EOD Trailing) | Daily 3% | Leverage 1:30 | Min 5 days | Payouts 14 Days
Profit Split & Payouts
Payout speed splits the lineup. QT One, QT Instant and QT 1 Step BNPL pay every 4 days; QT Two and QT Power run a 14-day cycle. Every plan needs four trading days once funded, though QT Two requires each of them to make at least +0.5% and QT Instant at least +1%. The split is where the plans really separate: QT Instant pays 100% and keeps nothing, QT Two and QT Power pay 80%, and QT One and the BNPL plan pay 70%. Withdrawals go out by bank transfer or crypto. One rule applies to Instant alone — taking a withdrawal locks the drawdown with a 3% buffer above your starting balance.
Platforms & Leverage
Trade on MetaTrader 5, cTrader or TradeLocker. Leverage splits by structure: 1:100 on FX for the two-step plans, QT Two and QT Power, and 1:30 for QT One, QT Instant and the BNPL plan. Indices and metals run 1:35 on the two-steps and 1:7.5 to 1:10 elsewhere, with crypto at 1:2.5 or 1:0.6. Allocation reaches $300,000.

GUIDE — 60% Off + Free Account
60% off every plan, plus a free same-size account issued at your first payout.
News Trading — all plans except QT Two Allowed
QT One, QT Instant, QT Power and QT 1 Step BNPL carry no news restriction. QT Two is the exception.
No Minimum Days in Evaluation — QT One and BNPL Allowed
Both can be passed in a single day. QT Two and QT Power require four trading days per phase.
No Consistency Score — QT One and QT Two Allowed
Neither carries one at any stage. QT Instant needs 30%, QT Power 35%, and QT 1 Step BNPL 20% once funded.
Expert Advisors (EAs) Allowed
Permitted on all plans. High-frequency trading and tick scalping, order-book spamming, latency and arbitrage trading, and server flooding through algorithm misuse are not.
No Time Limit Allowed
No deadline on any evaluation.
Unlimited Evaluation Accounts Allowed
No restrictions at all on evaluation accounts — you may hold as many as you like and trade them all simultaneously. The limits apply only once funded.
No Inactivity Rule — QT Two Allowed
QT Two is the only plan without one. Every other plan runs a 14-day inactivity rule, counted from purchase if you have not traded, or from your most recent closed trade.
Trade Journaling Tools Allowed
Third-party journaling websites and applications are permitted. It is your responsibility to make sure none of them connect through an IP in a restricted country.
Profit Split by Plan Restricted
QT Instant pays 100% — the full profit, nothing withheld. QT Two, QT Power and QT 1 Step BNPL pay 80%. QT One pays 70%.
Weekend Trading Closed Restricted
You may keep existing positions open over the weekend, but the market is closed for everything else: no new trades, and no modifying stop-loss or take-profit on what you hold. A TP or SL reached while the market is shut does not execute then — it fills at the next available price when trading resumes, which can mean slippage. QT is not responsible for weekend or holiday gaps, and a black swan event during closure invalidates the whole trade, profit or loss.
Responsible Trading — 75% Exposure Cap Restricted
During the evaluation your total exposure must never exceed 75% of your daily drawdown limit. Reach it and the Risk Team can deny funding and reset you to Phase 1. The evaluation is meant to assess consistency, not the ability to pass on one high-risk trade.
Floating Loss Rule Restricted
The core rule on every plan. QT One caps combined unrealised loss at 1% of account size, a hard breach if exceeded. QT Two also caps at 1%, on a two-strike basis — first breach soft, second hard. QT Instant caps at 1% per individual instrument. QT 1 Step BNPL allows 2%, in the evaluation and once funded.
Stop Loss Within 60 Seconds Restricted
On QT Two and QT Instant, every position on a funded account must have a stop-loss applied within 60 seconds of opening. Failure is a hard breach. QT One, QT Power and QT 1 Step BNPL have no stop-loss rule.
News Rule — QT Two Restricted
Trading is prohibited in a 10-minute window around restricted events, 5 minutes either side, using Forex Factory. It covers new entries and exits alike, though you may still adjust stop-loss, take-profit and cancel orders. It applies to CPI, FOMC statements and meetings, Non-Farm Payrolls and USD PMI. A red-folder event on one currency restricts every pair involving it and any index priced in it — an all-day red event restricts that currency all day. Red-labelled speeches restrict trading until 5 minutes after they end.
Maximum Capital Allocation Restricted
Funded capital caps at $300,000 combined, and Instant funded capital at $100,000 — the Instant figure counts toward the overall total. At either limit you may not trade the same currency pair across multiple funded accounts simultaneously. Breaching either cap, or duplicating an asset at the limit, is a hard breach.
Profit Cap per Cycle Restricted
QT Two and QT 1 Step BNPL cap profit at 5% per cycle. Anything above it is withdrawn from the account before your next cycle begins. QT One, QT Instant and QT Power have no cap.
Consistency Score Restricted
QT Instant needs 30% at withdrawal, QT Power 35% on both challenge and funded accounts, and QT 1 Step BNPL 20% once funded. The formula is your best trading day divided by total profit. QT One and QT Two have none.
Drawdown Lock — QT Instant Restricted
The 6% trailing drawdown follows your highest recorded balance or floating equity and never moves back down. Taking a withdrawal locks it at your starting balance. A 3% buffer applies, so you need 8% profit before the first 5% payout can be requested.
Minimum Trading Days Restricted
Four once funded on QT One, QT Two, QT Instant and QT Power. QT Two needs each of the four at +0.5% and QT Instant at +1%. QT 1 Step BNPL needs five days.
Activation Fee — QT 1 Step BNPL Restricted
After passing, you have 7 calendar days to pay the activation fee and unlock the funded account.
Inactivity Restricted
A 14-day inactivity rule applies to every plan except QT Two, which has none. If no trade has been placed the clock runs from purchase; once trading starts it runs from your most recent closed trade. Breaching it is a hard breach.
US IP Addresses Restricted
A connection from a US-based IP pauses the account rather than breaching it, since it violates MetaQuotes policy. Contact support to verify your residency and reactivate. Repeat violations do become a hard breach.
Restricted-Country Connections Prohibited
Connecting to a platform that is not allowed in your country is an instant breach. Note the platform-specific bans: Russia and Canada on MT5, and the United States on MT5 and cTrader.
Reverse Trading & Group Hedging Prohibited
You may not hold opposing trades on the same asset across different accounts if the positions sit in opposite directions for more than 2 minutes, or if it happens more than 3 separate times regardless of duration. A buy on one account and a sell on another breaches this once it passes either limit. Any violation is a hard breach and may bring a platform ban.
All-or-Nothing Trading Prohibited
Trading without stop-loss protection, holding through major news without risk control, risking more than 75% of your daily drawdown limit on trades, and inconsistent or poor risk management generally.
Prohibited Strategies Prohibited
Exploiting pricing errors, misquotes or abnormal fills — arbitrage, latency trading, front-running price feeds and mispricing exploitation. High-frequency trading including tick scalping, order-book spamming and flooding servers through algorithm misuse. One-sided betting that disrupts market balance. Anything the Risk Department judges abusive, manipulative or disruptive, which you will be notified about. Trades executed in extreme volatility may be reviewed and removed from your PnL if judged unrealistic.
Code of Conduct Prohibited
QT expects professional conduct toward staff and the community. Offensive or discriminatory language, abuse, threats, harassment of staff, public negativity intended to damage the community, and dishonest or toxic behaviour all bring immediate action — removal from the platforms, a permanent ban, and forfeiture of any accounts held and simulated profit accrued.

QT Funded Reviews & Ratings
Rated by our community & expert team
QT Funded is the prop arm of the broker Quant Tekel, so the firm owns the infrastructure your orders run on rather than renting it. It holds on Trustpilot from reviews, a much larger sample than most firms launched in 2023. QT Instant pays 100% — the entire profit, nothing withheld — which no other firm on this site matches. It earns that with a 30% consistency score, a stop-loss within 60 seconds, and a drawdown that locks at your starting balance the moment you withdraw. If you would rather be left alone, QT One asks for none of that at 70%. QT Two is the only route to $200,000, QT Power lifts the news rule and pays on demand, and QT 1 Step BNPL defers most of the cost. Weekends are fully closed — no new trades and no moving a stop-loss until markets reopen.
Summary
The prop arm of broker Quant Tekel, trading since October 2023 under Alex and James Manto. Five plans from $5,000 to $200,000 on MT5, cTrader and TradeLocker, with allocation to $300,000 and on Trustpilot from reviews.
Code GUIDE takes 60% off every plan and adds a free same-size account at your first payout, so entry runs from $5. Commission is $4 per lot round turn throughout. Payouts land every 4 days on QT One and QT Instant, every 14 on QT Two and the BNPL plan, and on demand on QT Power.
QT Instant paying 100% of profit is the standout, and no other firm here matches it. The conditions are the trade: a 30% consistency score, a stop-loss within 60 seconds, and a drawdown that locks at your starting balance once you withdraw. If those do not suit you, QT One asks for almost nothing at 70%.
Deep Dive
More About QT Funded
Is QT Funded Legit?
Yes. QT Funded is the proprietary trading arm of Quant Tekel, a regulated broker, which puts it in a different category from firms renting infrastructure from a third party. It has traded since October 2023 under Alex and James Manto and holds on Trustpilot across reviews — a sample size that is difficult to manufacture.
QT publishes a full rule comparison across all five plans in one table, marking where each is strongest and where it costs you. A firm that lays out its own trade-offs side by side is not usually the one hiding something at payout time.
The 100% split on QT Instant holds up to scrutiny. You keep the entire profit. What pays for it is written into the rules: a 30% consistency score at withdrawal, a stop-loss on every position within 60 seconds, floating loss under 1% per instrument, and a trailing drawdown that locks at your starting balance the moment you take a withdrawal. That last one is the real cost — after your first payout you are trading on a much shorter leash, and the 3% buffer means 8% profit before that payout even clears.
QT One is the plan most traders will actually want. Six percent to pass, no minimum days, no consistency score, no stop-loss rule, no news restriction, payouts every 4 days. It costs thirty points of split against Instant and asks almost nothing about how you trade. For anyone who wants to be left alone, that is the better deal.
The rule that ends most evaluations is not the target. Your exposure cannot exceed 75% of your daily drawdown limit at any point, and reaching it lets the Risk Team deny funding and reset you to Phase 1 — you do not have to lose the money, just risk it. Floating loss then caps at 1% once funded on three of the five plans, measured on unrealised loss rather than closed trades.
Reverse trading is the hardest line and worth understanding before opening a second account. Opposing positions on the same asset across different accounts, held in opposite directions for more than two minutes or occurring more than three separate times, is a hard breach that can bring a platform ban. Traders running correlated setups across accounts can trip this without meaning to hedge.
Worth planning around: weekends are fully closed for opening and modifying, allocation caps at $300,000 with Instant capped separately at $100,000, and the restricted list runs to twelve countries with several bans applying only to specific platforms. A US IP address pauses the account rather than breaching it, though repeat violations do become a hard breach.
QT Funded vs Other Forex Prop Firms
QT Funded vs Blueberry Funded: The other broker-backed firm we cover, and the comparison worth making. Blueberry runs on Blueberry Markets with a static drawdown, no consistency rule at all, and a flat 80% across all six programs. QT Funded is the proprietary arm of Quant Tekel and pushes further at both ends — 100% on Instant, 70% on QT One — but attaches a consistency score, a 60-second stop-loss rule and a 1% floating loss cap to the plans that pay most.
QT Funded vs Instant Funding: Both sell cheap instant accounts and both pay quickly. Instant Funding tops out at 90% with an add-on; QT Instant pays 100% outright. Instant Funding can pay within a day where QT Instant runs a 4-day cycle. The deciding factor is the rulebook: QT requires a stop-loss within 60 seconds and locks the drawdown after your first withdrawal, where Instant Funding is looser but keeps a slice of every payout.
QT Funded vs For Traders: Both spread across five or six routes and both let you defer the cost — QT’s BNPL takes a small fee now and activation within 7 days of passing, For Traders’ Pay After Pass works the same way from $9. For Traders refunds the fee entirely with your fourth payout and runs a 14-day cycle on most programs. QT Funded pays every 4 days on three of its five plans and reaches 100% on Instant, but never refunds the fee.
QT Funded Frequently Asked Questions
What programs does QT Funded offer?
Five. QT One is a single 6% step at a 70% split, passable in a day. QT Two is 8% then 5% at 80%, and the only plan reaching $200,000. QT Instant funds you from day one and pays 100%. QT Power is a two-step at 6% per phase that lifts the news rule and pays on demand. QT 1 Step BNPL splits the cost into a small fee now and an activation payment within 7 days of passing. Sizes run $5,000 to $200,000.
Does QT Funded really pay a 100% profit split?
Yes, on QT Instant — you keep the entire profit with nothing withheld, which no other firm on this site matches. It is paid for in the rules rather than the split: a 30% consistency score at withdrawal, a stop-loss on every position within 60 seconds, floating loss under 1% per instrument, and a trailing drawdown that locks at your starting balance once you withdraw. A 3% buffer means you need 8% profit before the first 5% payout clears.
How much does a QT Funded account cost?
From $5 with code GUIDE, which takes 60% off every plan and adds a free same-size account issued at your first payout. A $200,000 QT Two runs $400 and a $100,000 QT Instant $300. Commission is $4 per lot round turn on every instrument — $2 to open and $2 to close.
How fast does QT Funded pay out?
QT Power pays on demand once you clear the minimum days and a 35% consistency score. QT One and QT Instant run a 4-day cycle, QT Two and QT 1 Step BNPL a 14-day cycle. Most plans need four trading days once funded — QT Two requires each at +0.5%, QT Instant at +1%, and QT 1 Step BNPL needs five days.
Which QT Funded plan should I choose?
QT Instant if the 100% split is worth a consistency score, a mandatory stop-loss and a drawdown that locks on withdrawal. QT One if you want to be left alone — no consistency score, no stop-loss rule, no news restriction, no minimum days in the evaluation. QT Two if you want size, since it is the only route to $200,000. QT Power if you trade news and want payouts on demand. QT 1 Step BNPL if you want to defer most of the cost.
What is the 75% exposure rule?
During any evaluation your total exposure must never exceed 75% of your daily drawdown limit. Reaching it lets the Risk Team deny funding and reset you to Phase 1 — you do not have to lose the money, only risk it. The evaluation is designed to assess consistency rather than the ability to pass on one high-risk trade.
What is the floating loss rule?
The core rule once funded, measured on unrealised loss rather than closed trades. QT One caps combined floating loss at 1% of account size, a hard breach if exceeded. QT Two also caps at 1% but on a two-strike basis — first breach soft, second hard. QT Instant caps at 1% per individual instrument. QT 1 Step BNPL allows 2%, in the evaluation and once funded.
Can I trade news at QT Funded?
On every plan except QT Two. On QT Two, trading is prohibited in a 10-minute window around restricted events — 5 minutes either side, using Forex Factory — covering entries and exits alike, though you may still adjust stop-loss and take-profit or cancel orders. It applies to CPI, FOMC statements and meetings, Non-Farm Payrolls and USD PMI, and a red-folder event on one currency restricts every pair involving it.
Can I hold trades over the weekend at QT Funded?
You can hold existing positions, but the market is closed for everything else — no new trades and no modifying stop-loss or take-profit until it reopens. A TP or SL touched while the market is shut does not execute then; it fills at the next available price, which can mean slippage. A black swan event during closure invalidates the trade entirely.
How many QT Funded accounts can I hold?
Funded capital caps at $300,000 combined, with Instant funded capital capped separately at $100,000 which counts toward that total. At either limit you cannot trade the same currency pair across multiple funded accounts. Evaluation accounts are unlimited and unrestricted — hold as many as you like and trade them all at once.
