Our Summary
Forex-focused prop firm offering simulated challenge and instant-funding style programs with multi-step options, fast payout marketing, and a community-driven retail-trader positioning.
Trading Plans

Compare each plan path, how it progresses, and the key funding and payout terms we have confirmed so far.

Single-stage evaluation path that leads to funded access after objectives are met.

Maven says traders must pass the evaluation stages, then complete Maven's review and KYC flow before receiving a simulated funded account with profit-split eligibility.
Current public cards show payout frequency of 10 business days across the current Standard and Instant offerings. Challenge fees are advertised as refundable on the third withdrawal.
Current public pricing cards show leverage of 75:1 across the currently advertised challenge and instant products. Buying power still varies by model because drawdown type, max open risk, and consistency-style constraints differ between structures.

Two-stage evaluation path that must be completed before funded access.

Funded Account Structure

Maven explicitly describes its offering as a simulated prop firm trading environment. Traders move through Standard or Instant programs such as 1-Step, 2-Step, 3-Step, and Elite 1-Step before operating a simulated funded account rather than a standard live brokerage-funded account.

Allowed Trading Instruments
Structured instrument coverage is still being normalized for this firm. For now, use the market badges and the plan and rules notes above as the best guide to what this firm supports.

A clean restricted-country matrix did not surface in this pass. This record needs a later FAQ sweep aimed specifically at onboarding and jurisdiction rules.

For non-futures firms, this section summarizes challenge fees, commissions, spreads, swaps, activation costs, and other trader-facing cost notes when exact structured fee rows are not yet normalized.
Maven says forex commission is $2 per way ($4 round trip), precious metals and energy are $3 per way ($6 round trip), digital ETFs, indices, and commodities have $0 commissions, and all accounts have zero swap fees.
General Policies
Algorithm & EA Policy
Maven prohibits EAs and similar automation tools across all of its platforms.
Maven classifies HFT, toxic order flow, arbitrage variants, tick scalping, server-execution abuse, group hedging, and copy trading from another individual as cheating, and says EAs are not permitted on any platform.
Copy Trading
Not allowed

A dedicated public copy-trading rule for traders did not surface in Maven's current FAQ. Official Maven materials do state that the firm may monitor successful traders and copy trades internally for its own risk and revenue management, but that is not the same as a published trader-facing permission to use copy trading across accounts.

Microscalping Policy
Maven prohibits excessive scalping and separately classifies tick scalping as cheating.
Bots Policy

Automation is not allowed. Maven says EAs are not permitted under any circumstances across all supported platforms.

DCA Policy

No explicit DCA or martingale policy surfaced in the current official materials reviewed for this firm.

Allowed Trading Hours
Trading restrictions are model- and event-dependent. Maven enforces a 2-minute red-folder news window on non-instant accounts and measures some drawdown rules off the 00:00 UTC daily rollover.
Move to Live Criteria

Maven says traders must pass the evaluation stages, then complete Maven's review and KYC flow before receiving a simulated funded account with profit-split eligibility.

Rule Enforcement Notes

Maven says accounts can be terminated or blocked from progressing to funded status for cheating, prohibited strategies, excessive scalping, news-window violations, or other breaches. Passing accounts are also subject to review before funded progression.

Refund Policy

No broad refund promise surfaced in the reviewed official Maven materials. The reviewed help-center content focuses on challenge purchase, payouts, and buyback fees rather than offering a general refund policy.

Activation Fee Policy

No separate funded-account activation fee surfaced in the reviewed official Maven materials; published costs instead focus on challenge pricing and optional buyback fees after losing a funded account.

VPN Policy
Your IP address must remain within the same geographical region through your Maven journey. Region changes can trigger proof requests and additional verification.
Payout Methods

Current public cards show payout frequency of 10 business days across the current Standard and Instant offerings. Challenge fees are advertised as refundable on the third withdrawal.
