A Sudden Rule Change and Full Profit Removal
I’m sharing my recent experience with Funded Futures Family because what happened deserves to be known. I was managing two 50K accounts, each with a comfortable safety buffer of around $9,500, well above the required minimum. At the time of purchase, I was following the rules that were in place, including the previous microscalping framework. Nothing indicated that a rule change could lead to a complete removal of profits. FFF later modified its microscalping rule. The official page simply states “Updated over 3 weeks ago,” with no precise date, no archive of the previous rule, and no communication sent to traders. There is no way to know when the rule changed or whether it applies to accounts purchased before. The dashboard provides no indicator to track this rule: no counter, no percentage, no alert. It’s impossible to know whether you are compliant or not. My payout request was denied without proof, only with generic replies repeating the rule. Then FFF removed all of my profits. Since I received nothing from them to justify this decision, I had to extract all my data from Tradovate myself. It’s not easy to analyze, but the numbers are clear: the day after and on the same day as my exchange with FFF, I was below the threshold, at 48.6%. The day before, I was around 50.5% or 51%, which shows that one or two trades were enough to move back under the limit — which was already the case when I checked. Short trades represented only 18% of all trades. Even under their new rule, I was not in violation. If I had known about the rule change, I would simply have waited before submitting my payout request. But without communication, without a date, and without visibility, it was impossible to know the rule had changed. Here is what I observe today: a rule change with no date and no communication, retroactive application, no proof provided, a dashboard that doesn’t show the required metrics, and a complete removal of profits. I was genuinely satisfied with FFF until now. I never thought I would have to write something like this, but what happened is serious enough to share. FFF has clearly changed, and not for the better.
