FunderPro Deal: 25% Off Challenges + TradeZella Giveaway

Took 4 payout from funderpro, Great Propfirm

My experience with FunderPro has been extremely negative and has completely destroyed my confidence in this company.
I was trading a $100,000 Instant account and generated around $3,600 in profits. After that, FunderPro reviewed my account and rejected my reward, claiming that I had exceeded their 20% margin usage rule.
They provided me with 14 trade IDs that they considered overleveraged. What I find particularly unacceptable is that some of these trades were only 0.18 lots of XAUUSD on a $100,000 account.
The lot sizes they effectively allow under this rule are, in my opinion, embarrassingly low for a $100K account, especially when trading gold. If positions as small as 0.18 lots can contribute to an alleged overleveraged exposure, traders should be given completely transparent information about the exact exposure they are permitted to take.
I understand that a prop firm needs risk-management rules. That is not the problem. The problem is how these rules are communicated and enforced.
The trader should know before entering a position:
exactly how margin usage is calculated;
exactly how XAUUSD margin is calculated;
how simultaneous positions are aggregated;
what maximum exposure is allowed on a $100K account;
and exactly when the 20% threshold is breached.
Instead, you can trade, generate thousands of dollars in profits and then, afterwards, be told that certain trades were considered overleveraged and that your reward will be rejected.
From my perspective, it creates the impression that when it comes to paying traders, there is always a rule or an excuse that can be used to avoid paying the reward.
After this experience, I have absolutely no confidence in FunderPro. I do not trust their approach to risk enforcement or their treatment of profitable traders.
There are many better prop firms available, with clearer rules and, in my opinion, much more transparent conditions. I would not recommend FunderPro at all. If you are considering opening an account with them, I strongly recommend that you carefully investigate their margin rules and ask for everything in writing before depositing or purchasing an account.
For me, the experience has been very simple:
Profits generated → account reviewed → trades classified as overleveraged → reward rejected.
This has completely destroyed my trust in the company.
I would not recommend FunderPro to any trader. There are many better alternatives, and after what happened to me, I simply do not trust this company anymore.
(I'm giving it one star because I can't give negative stars.)

Blatant scam ⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️⚠️

They need to be jailed for what they're doing to people
And I won't stop until they are

🚨🚨🚨 Traders deserve transparency, fair rules, and reliable support. Unclear policies and poor communication destroy trust. Treat traders fairly and take their concerns seriously!

This company is a scam, fraudulent, dishonest, untrustworthy, misleading to traders, unfair with its rules, full of hidden conditions, poor in customer service, making false promises, using shady practices, trader-unfriendly, and not transparent.
