Funded Trading Plus at Prop Firm Expo London 2026: What Traders Should Know

Most prop firms advertise a headline profit split and leave it there. Funded Trading Plus structures the split as something a trader earns more of over time. Every program starts at 80%, rises to 90% once a trader reaches 20% profit, and reaches 100%, which is kept for life, at 30% profit. For a trader who plans to stay with one firm and compound over time, that scaling structure changes the maths in a way a flat split does not.

Funded Trading Plus will appear at Prop Firm Expo London 2026 on June 27 at the Queen Elizabeth II Centre as a Silver Sponsor. For traders who want to understand the firm's three programs and how its scaling model works in practice, the event is a useful setting to do that work in person.

For attendees, Silver-level access means the firm has a presence on the floor and supporting visibility across Prop Firm Match and Prop Firm Expo channels. It is a more focused presence than the higher tiers, but for a trader it still means a direct line to the team, and a setting in which to ask specific questions and get answers in person rather than only relying on a firm page.

Funded Trading Plus is a UK-based CFD prop firm led by CEO Simon Massey. The firm was created in November 2021 and has been operating for four years, which makes it one of the more tenured firms in the CFD prop space.

In May 2026, Funded Trading Plus was acquired by fellow UK firm Instant Funding in a seven-figure deal. Both brands continue to operate independently, with separate platforms, products, and trader-facing operations, and the firms have stated that existing accounts, challenges, payouts, rules, and support remain unchanged. For a trader evaluating Funded Trading Plus today, the practical takeaway is continuity.

The trading environment is built around CFDs, with Match-Trader and MT5 as the supported platforms. Asset coverage includes FX, metals, indices, energy, crypto, and other commodities. Commissions are $7 per lot round-trip on FX, metals, energy, and other commodities, with no commission on indices or crypto. Payouts are processed through bank transfer and crypto.

The profit split is the clearest differentiator at Funded Trading Plus, and it is worth understanding properly because it changes how the firm rewards traders who stay.

Every program starts at an 80% split. Once a trader reaches 20% cumulative profit, the split upgrades to 90%. At 30% profit, it upgrades to 100%, and that 100% split is kept for life. In a market where some firms cap the split at 80–90%, a lifetime 100% split for traders who hit the milestone is a different proposition. It rewards traders who treat the firm as a long-term home rather than a single evaluation.

The three programs give a trader three routes to that scaling structure:

Instant Funding is the no-evaluation route. There is no profit target. A trader is funded immediately, with a 6% daily drawdown, a 6% trailing maximum drawdown, and a first reward on demand, then a 7-day reward cycle. The trade-off is in the rules: weekend holding is not allowed, and all trades must be closed by 4:30 pm EST on Friday, or they are closed automatically. It is the most expensive entry but the fastest path to trading funded capital.

1-Step Express is the single-phase evaluation. It runs a 10% profit target, a 4% daily drawdown, a 6% trailing maximum drawdown, and a first reward on demand, then a 7-day reward cycle, with weekend holding allowed. For a trader confident in their edge who wants one clean evaluation before funding, this is the route.

2-Step Classic is the two-phase evaluation and the firm's most structured route. It runs 7% and 7% profit targets across the two phases, a 4% daily drawdown, an 8% static maximum drawdown, and a 10-day reward cycle, with weekend holding allowed. The static drawdown, rather than trailing, is a meaningful difference, since it does not move up as the account grows. It also carries a 3% symbol loss limit, under which no single instrument can incur more than a 3% simulated equity loss based on the prior day's balance.

Funded Trading Plus publishes a detailed rule set. A few points are worth understanding before evaluation.

News trading is allowed at all times, including high-impact events, provided a trader does not risk their entire or majority account balance on a single news trade. That is more permissive than many CFD firms, which restrict news windows on funded accounts.

No minimum trading days. A trader can clear an evaluation as quickly as their performance allows, with no requirement to trade across a set number of days.

Consistency on 2-Step Classic. The two-step route applies a consistency rule: during evaluation, no single trading day's net profit can exceed 35% of total net profit, rising to 50% during the funded payout stage. Worth understanding if your performance tends to concentrate in one or two strong days.

Expert Advisors are allowed on MT5 only, with abusive strategies such as arbitrage and grid trading prohibited.

Copying trading across Funded Trading Plus accounts is prohibited, but copying between your own personal or other prop firm accounts and a Funded Trading Plus account is permitted.

On payouts, the scaling split sits on top of program-specific cycles: Instant Funding and 1-Step Express run first payout on-demand then every 7 days, while 2-Step Classic runs a 10-day cycle. A drawdown lock applies on Instant Funding and 1-Step Express, once the maximum drawdown reaches the initial balance or a payout is requested, the drawdown is fixed at the initial balance.

The starting question is which of the three routes matches how you want to get funded, and how the scaling split factors into your plans.

If you want to skip evaluation, Instant Funding is the route, but ask the team about the no-weekend-holding rule and the Friday close requirement, since those shape how the account can be traded. If you want a single clean evaluation, 1-Step Express and its 10% target is the conversation. If you want the most structured route with static drawdown, 2-Step Classic is worth discussing in detail, including how the consistency rule and 3% symbol loss limit would apply to your style.

Across all three, the scaling split is the throughline. Ask the team how quickly traders typically progress from 80% to 90% to the lifetime 100% split, and what that path looks like for a trader at your account size and pace.

• Which of the three routes is best suited to my style: Instant Funding, 1-Step Express, or 2-Step Classic?
• How quickly do traders typically reach the 90% and lifetime 100% profit splits in practice?
• On 2-Step Classic, how do the consistency rule and the 3% symbol loss limit apply to a trader who concentrates risk in a few instruments?
• Since news trading is allowed at all times, what counts as risking the "majority" of an account on a single news trade?
• How does the drawdown lock work on Instant Funding and 1-Step Express when I request a payout?
• Following the Instant Funding acquisition, is anything changing for new traders signing up now?

Use the firm's presence at the event to test how clearly Funded Trading Plus explains its three routes and its scaling model. The useful signal is whether the team can speak to who each program is built for and how the profit-split progression genuinely works, rather than presenting the split as a flat headline number.

Use booth time to narrow the decision around your own trading. Bring your preferred asset class, your account-size range, and your trading style. If you already know whether you lean toward instant funding, a one-step, or a two-step evaluation, this is where Funded Trading Plus should be able to give you a more precise answer than a static listing can provide.

Funded Trading Plus will appear at Prop Firm Expo London 2026 on June 27 at the Queen Elizabeth II Centre as a Silver Sponsor. For attendees comparing CFD prop firms, that is a useful opportunity to evaluate one of the more tenured firms in the space and to test how its scaling profit split and three-route structure fit the way you actually trade.

If Funded Trading Plus is already on your shortlist, use the expo to get precise. Focus on which route fits your trading, how quickly the scaling split would progress at your pace, and how the rules on your chosen program would apply to your strategy. That is a stronger way to use sponsor-level access than relying on visibility alone.

To prepare before the event, you can review Funded Trading Plus's full profile, including broker details, supported platforms, payout structures, and verified trader reviews, on the Funded Trading Plus page on Prop Firm Match.
