Why did my balance reset after I passed Phase 1 or the Challenge?

Updated this week

When you pass a phase of your Challenge (for example Phase 1) and move to the next phase, your new phase always starts from the initial starting balance.

  • Profits from the previous phase do not carry over to the next phase.

  • Each phase is evaluated separately, from a clean starting point.

  • This applies to all evaluation phases of the Challenge account.

Real payouts and real profits start only once you reach the funded stage, according to the rules of your specific product.


What exactly happens when I pass a phase?

After you meet all requirements of your current phase and the system processes your pass:

  • Your new phase account is set to the initial starting balance of that product

  • All profit and equity from the previous phase are not included in the new phase balance

  • All targets, limits and rules for the new phase are calculated from this initial balance

  • Your performance in the new phase is evaluated only from the trades you open in that phase

So if you see your balance “go back” to the starting amount after passing, this is expected behavior, not a bug.


Why does my account “reset” when I pass?

There are three main reasons.

Each phase is a separate evaluation

The purpose of a Challenge is to check that you can trade consistently and responsibly over several stages, not just once.

A clean starting balance in every phase keeps this evaluation fair and comparable across traders.

Risk management must stay consistent

If profit carried over from one phase to the next, some traders could take much bigger risks in later phases than in earlier ones.

Starting from the same initial balance each time encourages stable risk management in every phase.

Evaluation vs. funded payout stage

All stages, including the funded stage, are traded in a simulated environment with virtual capital.

In evaluation phases your profits are not withdrawable and do not move to the next phase. They are used only to check if you pass the targets.

In the funded stage, you still trade a simulated account, but your performance can make you eligible for real payouts, with a profit split of 99%, according to the rules of your specific product.


Example:

Let’s say your product has an initial balance of 100 000.

  • You start Phase 1 with: 100 000

  • You finish Phase 1 with: 105 200

  • You have met all Phase 1 targets and passed

When your Phase 2 is created:

  • Your Phase 2 starting balance is: 100 000

  • The 5 200 profit from Phase 1 does not carry into Phase 2

  • All Phase 2 targets and limits (profit target, max loss, daily loss, etc.) are calculated from the 100 000 initial balance

This works the same way across all multi phase products, including the Eon 5 Phase Challenge.

In Eon, every new phase starts again from the initial balance, and profits from previous phases do not carry over. Your pass is determined by meeting the rules and targets of each phase, not by stacking balances across phases.
