Common questions.

A challenge that measures your trading against a published rule set — a profit target inside daily and overall drawdown limits, over a minimum number of trading days. Pass it and you can trade a funded account.

No. Evaluations run in a simulated environment marked to a live price feed. No order is executed in a real market. Funded payouts are real; the trading itself is a paper environment.

The engine stores immutable trades and equity snapshots and re-derives your lifecycle deterministically. On any breach you see the exact rule, its limit, the value that crossed it and the triggering trade — reproducible at any time.

No. Your program's full rule set is frozen onto your account at purchase and stays visible on your account panel for the life of the account.

Up to 90% on funded accounts, set per program and shown before you buy. You keep your split of realized profit.

Payouts are KYC-gated and reviewed for consistency before release, typically within 24–48 hours. Each comes with a branded statement you can download and verify.

Identity verification is required before your first payout to meet anti-money-laundering obligations and protect both sides. See our AML & KYC Policy.

Only realized profit above your starting balance is withdrawable. Your dashboard shows the exact amount available, and a Max button fills it for you.

The built-in simulation engine ships by default. Operators can also connect Match-Trader, with MT5 and cTrader on the same adapter. Whatever the source, Mettle's own engine applies the rules.

Card and bank rails plus USDT are supported, depending on what the operator has enabled. Fees are shown at checkout.

Evaluation fees are generally non-refundable once trading begins, with exceptions set out in our Refund Policy (billing errors, technical faults, or where required by law).
