My Funded Futures Leverage Explained

Leverage in futures trading works differently than in forex or CFDs. Instead of leverage ratios like 1:100, futures prop firms set maximum contract size limits per account tier — this effectively determines how much market exposure a trader can take relative to their account balance. At My Funded Futures, contract limits scale with account size.

The list below outlines the current contract limits offered by My Funded Futures across supported account sizes. This breakdown helps traders quickly identify how much exposure is permitted at each account tier before selecting a challenge.

How to Interpret These Contract Limits

At My Funded Futures, contract size limits scale proportionally with account size, giving traders larger market exposure as they qualify for bigger accounts. These limits are enforced during the evaluation phase and typically carry into the funded stage as well.

This means traders need to size positions within these caps at all times — exceeding the contract limit can trigger a rule violation regardless of whether the position is in profit or loss.

Account-Wise Contract Overview at My Funded Futures

$25K Account
The entry-level account is suited to traders starting with conservative position sizing — ideal for testing strategies on micro contracts before scaling up.

$50K Account
The mid-tier account roughly doubles available contract exposure, suiting traders ready to take larger positions or trade multiple instruments simultaneously.

$100K Account
At this tier, contract limits support more active strategies including multi-instrument scaling and intraday position layering.

$150K Account
The largest account size offers the highest contract caps available at My Funded Futures, suiting experienced futures traders running scaled or systematic strategies.

What This Contract Structure Means for Traders

Based on this contract limit setup, My Funded Futures may be more suitable for:

Traders who scale position size with account growth
Day traders and scalpers focused on index and energy futures
Traders comfortable starting with micros and progressing to minis

Traders requiring large position sizes early in the evaluation, or who prefer leverage-style exposure on FX or crypto, may find a futures-only firm more restrictive than CFD-based prop firms.
