Elite Trader Funding review
Traders who want a static drawdown option or overnight holds (Diamond Hands). Rules read from Elite Trader Funding's own pages on 3 November 2026.
Our read of the rules
What stands out
- Static drawdown accounts: a fixed floor that never trails.
- Diamond Hands allows overnight and weekend holds.
- Several drawdown styles: intraday, end of day and static.
Watch out for
- Going over the maximum position fails the account.
- On End of Day and Diamond Hands accounts the daily loss limit is a hard fail.
- Flatten 1 minute before the instrument closes; evaluations need 5 trading days.
On every Elite Trader Funding account
- Flat one minute before the instrument's close, except Diamond Hands.
- Going over the contract limit fails the account.
