How to Pass My Funded Futures in 10 Days: Complete Blueprint

Rating
4.4/5
The 10-Day Framework
Key Principle
Slow and steady wins. Don't rush. The EOD drawdown protects you, but the daily loss limit doesn't care about recovery.
| Phase | Days | Goal |
|---|---|---|
| Foundation | 1-3 | Build 3% buffer |
| Compounding | 4-7 | Accumulate steadily |
| Closing | 8-10 | Snipe final profits |
Days 1-3: Foundation Phase
Daily Goals
| Day | Target | Risk |
|---|---|---|
| 1 | +1% | 0.5% max |
| 2 | +1% | 0.5% max |
| 3 | +1% | 0.5% max |
Strategy
| Rule | Details |
|---|---|
| Session | NY Open only (9:30-11:00 AM EST) |
| Contracts | 2 micro (MNQ) or 1 mini (NQ) |
| Stops | Tight (10-15 points NQ) |
| Avoid | Lunch hour (choppy) |
Buffer Building
After 3 days of +1%, you have a 3% buffer. This gives you breathing room for day 4+.
Days 4-7: Compounding Phase
Adjustments
| Change | Why |
|---|---|
| Slightly increase risk | Have buffer now |
| EOD advantage | Let winners run |
| Same session | NY Open works |
EOD Advantage
EOD drawdown means intraday dips don't count if you recover. You can let winners run longer than at trailing drawdown firms.
Days 8-10: Closing Phase
Critical Period
If you're close to passing, reduce risk drastically. Don't blow it on the last day.
Final Push Strategy
| Rule | Details |
|---|---|
| Contracts | 1 micro only |
| Target | $50-100/day |
| Approach | Snipe small wins |
| Avoid | Big moves |
