FundedElite

Prop Trading Firm

Legal Company Name: Quantum LTD
Location: 124 City Road, Hoxton, London, United Kingdom; Building Rodney Village, Rodney Bay, Gros-Islet, Saint Lucia
Established: 2023 (3 years in business)
Leadership: Christian Habibi and Artur Serhiiovych Deshko, Co-CEOs

Prop trading firm for Futures traders

Our Summary
Pros: Official FAQ rules are detailed and explicit about prohibited behaviors (account sharing, latency arbitrage, server spamming, hedge/pass-style abuse) and enforcement outcomes. Policy language permits copy trading and EA-assisted workflows when activity remains trader-driven and non-abusive. Cons: User reports indicate FundedElite's email newsletter and website contact form are not working. That is an operational reliability concern for a firm established in 2023. Funded Elite (Quantum LTD) offers multi-stage challenge paths plus instant/flash variants, with rules centered on minimum hold time, anti-abuse controls, and funded-stage payout discipline.

Allowed Trading Instruments

This firm cannot accept traders from the below countries due to regulatory restrictions and compliance requirements.

Algeria
Cuba
Iran
Iraq
Kenya
Lebanon
Libya
North Korea
Russia
Somalia
Syria
Turkey
These commission schedules show the per-side or round-trip trading costs, including exchange-style fees, used to mimic what trading the same futures contracts would cost in a regular cash brokerage account.
Payout transfers (Rise and crypto) are subject to processing fees deducted from payouts. Instrument commissions vary by tradable instrument/account setup.
General Policies
Algorithm & EA Policy
Copy trading and EA usage are permitted when trader-owned accounts are used and execution remains trader-directed. Fully automated or abusive styles are restricted.
EAs may support risk management and analysis but cannot be used for prohibited patterns such as public scalping bots, HFT-style execution, account-passing behavior, or risk-free hedge constructs. VPS/VPN usage is allowed when pre-notified to support for IP validation.
Copy Trading
Allowed

Copy trading is allowed only across trader-owned accounts. Sharing credentials or using third-party passing/account-management services is prohibited.

Microscalping Policy
Minimum hold time is 3 minutes on standard accounts and 30 seconds on accounts with the scalping addon. HFT and ultra-short-cycle execution patterns are prohibited.
Allowed Trading Hours
Weekend-holding addon and scalping addon are available by plan. Standard minimum hold time is 3 minutes, reduced to 30 seconds when scalping addon is selected.
Move to Live Criteria

After passing the challenge phases and entering the funded/Elite stage, payouts follow funded-stage rules and split structure. Giveaway/free accounts include payout caps, while purchased funded accounts remove the standard cap after reaching Elite again per policy.

Rule Enforcement Notes

Accounts can be terminated for prohibited conduct including account sharing/passing services, latency arbitrage, server-spamming behavior, disallowed weekend trading activity, and hedge patterns intended to create risk-free outcomes.

Refund Policy

Fee reimbursement is performance-based: first-try passes are refunded on the third payout; if Second Chance/free retry is used, the fee is not refunded. Resets after rule breaches also forfeit reimbursement rights.

Activation Fee Policy

Flash Activation requires a separate activation fee after passing evaluation. The activation fee must be paid within 29 days from pass date, otherwise the offer expires.

VPN Policy
VPN policy is not explicitly published by this firm. In general, prop firms often restrict or closely monitor VPN/proxy/VPS usage because of KYC and compliance obligations, sanctions screening, fraud prevention, account-sharing detection, and risk controls tied to IP/geolocation consistency. Using location-masking tools can trigger security reviews, payout holds, or account action. Before trading with a VPN, confirm your exact setup with firm support in writing (especially when traveling or changing regions).
