FTMO vs FundedNext

Rules placed next to each other, with the calculation basis written out — because two firms quoting the same percentage can be measuring completely different things.

What differs most.

They calculate the daily loss limit from different reference points, so the percentages are not directly comparable.

Account closed
Trading day over, account survives
Room to lose on day one
Profit still needed to pass phase one

Drawn to scale from each plan's own published numbers, on the plan compared in the table below. Day one is the only day on which every daily-loss basis agrees, which is what makes the two bars honestly comparable at all. Both maximum-loss floors sit at the same place on day one, $90,000. The two daily-loss floors are measured from different reference points, so they only line up on day one. From day two they move apart.

Restricted countries	Not listed. The FTMO Challenge T&C (4 August 2026) define 'Restricted Jurisdictions' only as countries determined by FTMO 'at our discretion'; no list appears in the document or on the pages read.	Terms of Service 5.3 (5 May 2026, Tier A) — 'Restricted Countries – CFDs', 20 named: Bangladesh, Myanmar, Belarus, North Korea, Syria, Grenada, Chad, Malaysia, Belize, Antigua and Barbuda, Cape Verde, Tuvalu, Vietnam, Bouvet Island, Burundi, Cook Islands, Eritrea, Comoros, Sri Lanka, Fiji. The trading-objectives page (Tier B) lists only five (North Korea, Myanmar, Belarus, Iran, Russia) — a shorter, different list; both are recorded and the contract governs. Note Comoros itself is on the list while an affiliated entity is registered there.

Only the first recorded plan of each firm is shown here. Full plan detail, sources and everything we could not verify are on each firm's page. Last re-checked 5 September 2026; the oldest record on this page was checked 4 September 2026. Each firm page carries its own date.

Not yet verified is not No. Where a cell reads "Not yet verified", we could not confirm the rule from the firm's own terms or help centre. It is not a claim that the rule does not exist.
