ZoneX

Most crypto prop firms lock you into one exchange. We connect to 7+ and counting. Binance, Bybit, OKX, Phemex, Gate, CoinW, Hyperliquid. Why? Because we trade on the same platform we give to our traders. If an exchange goes down or liquidity dries up, we need options too. Exchange-agnostic means nobody is stuck. Including us. zonex.pro

You're a profitable crypto trader with a $2,000 account. You know you could do more with more size. The problem is getting there. The traditional way: save up, deposit your own money into an exchange, and trade it. Every loss comes straight out of your pocket. Blow the account and you're starting from zero with your own cash. The challenge way: pay a one time evaluation fee. Trade in a simulated environment with real market conditions. Hit the targets, manage risk, follow the rules. Pass, and you become eligible for an incentive-eligible account with performance incentives based on your results. Think about what that actually means. Instead of depositing $10,000 of your own money to trade a $10,000 account, you pay an evaluation fee. A fraction of that amount. The challenge fee is the only fee you pay to participate in the evaluation. Nothing else. If you pass, you're trading bigger size. If you don't, you lost the fee. Not your savings. For most profitable traders, the evaluation fee is the smallest cost they'll ever take on relative to the opportunity it opens up. Same skill. Way more upside. Way less personal risk. zonex.pro

Every trader asks the same thing: "which challenge should I pick?" ZoneX has 3 types. They're built for 3 very different traders. Wrong pick = frustration. Right pick = playing to your strengths. Your Own Style (YOS) Most flexibility. Any strategy, any approach. 2.5% daily loss limit, 10% total drawdown. Futures ($5K to $400K) and Spot ($5K to $25K). Profit target: 10% (1-Step) or 8%+5% (2-Step). Min 14 trading days. Futures pricing: $112 to $1,175 (1-Step) / $79 to $881 (2-Step). Most traders start here. Forced Profitability (FP) Cheapest way in. Strictest risk management. 2% daily loss limit, 10% total drawdown. Risk per trade capped at <0.6% (1-Step) or <1% (2-Step). Minimum 1:3 risk:reward ratio. 4 consecutive losing trades in a day and you stop trading until the next day. 5th trade is a violation. Futures and Spot. Min 14 trading days. Futures pricing: $79 to $684 (1-Step) / $59 to $513 (2-Step). If budget matters and you trust your discipline, FP is the move. High Conviction (HC) Highest targets, widest limits, fewest restrictions. 5% daily loss limit, 15% total drawdown. Profit target: 20% (1-Step) or 15%+10% (2-Step). No risk per trade cap, no min risk:reward, no consecutive loss rule. Futures only. Min 7 trading days. Futures pricing: $249 to $2,175 (1-Step) / $187 to $1,631 (2-Step). Built for traders who take fewer, bigger positions. Rules across all three: static drawdown from initial balance (never rises with profits). Mandatory stop-loss on every trade. No time limits. Consistency rule (no single day > 50% of total profits). ZoneX terminal included. All evaluation trading is simulated. The challenge fee is the only fee paid to participate. Pass and you may become eligible for an incentive-eligible account across 7 exchanges (Binance, Bybit, OKX, Hyperliquid, Phemex, Gate, CoinW) with up to 90% performance incentives. Most traders don't pass. Pick the type that matches how you actually trade. That alone puts you ahead. zonex.pro

You've been trading crypto for a while. You're profitable. But your account size is holding you back. That's exactly the problem prop trading challenges solve. You pay a one time fee to take an evaluation. You trade in a simulated environment, real market conditions, zero capital at risk. Your job: prove you can trade with discipline. Hit the targets, manage risk, follow the rules. Pass, and you become eligible for an incentive-eligible account. Bigger size, performance incentives based on your results, without staking your own money. The challenge fee is the only fee you pay to participate. Nothing else. If you can trade but don't have the capital to match your skill, this is how you close that gap. zonex.pro

@iamking_eddy most traders ask "how does it work" and then never start. here's the short version: pick a challenge ($5K to $400K), trade across 7+ exchanges on our terminal, hit the target without breaching drawdown. no time limit. the challenge fee is the only fee to participate. DM me if you want help picking the right type for how you trade.

@d_G_OAT @zonex_ch Tell me how those this work?

it Friday again 🍾💸 tane a moment to reflect on your week and get ready for the weekend…don’t forget to win today 🥂💚 good morning winners 🥂💸

A trader just posted a screenshot. Passed both phases. Hit every target. Got denied payout because of a rule violation they didn't even know they were breaking. This happens more often than you think. Most prop firms bury their rules in a 40 page document nobody reads, then use those same rules to deny payouts after the fact. Traders find out they violated something when they check their dashboard and see "disqualified" instead of a profit number. The frustrating part? A trader is deep in a setup, managing entries and exits, watching the chart. Meanwhile their drawdown is sitting at 9.4% and they don't realize their next position could push it over 10%. By the time the trade executes, it's too late. We built ZoneX differently because we trade on our own platform. We know what it's like to be three screens deep and lose track of the math. So we built a Pre-Violation Warning system. It's an optional add-on (costs 10% of your challenge fee) that runs a check before you execute any trade. If that trade could push you past a drawdown limit, daily or total, you get a notification before the order goes through. You then decide: proceed, reduce your position size, or cancel entirely. Here's a real example. Say you're at 9.5% drawdown with a 10% limit. You try to enter a trade risking 0.6%. The system flags it, because if that stop hits, you're at 10.1% and you're done. But a 0.5% risk trade? That goes through clean, because even a full stop loss keeps you at exactly 10%. The math runs before the trade, not after. ZoneX challenges already have cleaner rules than most of the industry. 10% static drawdown from your starting balance. Winning trades never raise the floor. No time limits. Mandatory stop loss on every trade. Every rule is published before you buy. The Pre-Violation Warning add-on is one more layer on top of that. It turns the rules from something you memorize into something the platform actively helps you follow. Nobody should lose a challenge because they couldn't do mental math fast enough during a volatile candle. zonex.pro

most crypto prop firm evaluations have a 30 day timer. the logic sounds reasonable: prove you can trade under pressure. but here's what actually happens. traders rush entries. they overtrade the last week. they take setups they'd normally skip because the clock is running out. the timer doesn't test skill. it tests impatience. ZoneX evaluations have no time limit. take a week, take six months. if you need to sit out a choppy market for 3 weeks, you can. if your edge only shows up in certain conditions, you wait for those conditions. the goal is to find traders who are actually good. not traders who are fast. zonex.pro

most prop firms use trailing drawdown. that means every time you profit, your drawdown floor moves up with you. sounds good until you realize what it actually does: it punishes winning. you hit a streak, your floor rises, and now one normal pullback wipes you out. the better you trade, the tighter the leash gets. ZoneX uses static drawdown. 10% from your starting balance. period. your winning trades never raise the floor. if you start with a $50K account, your max drawdown stays at $45K whether you're up $500 or $5,000. this matters more than most traders think. trailing drawdown turns good traders into cautious ones. static drawdown lets you actually compound without looking over your shoulder. zonex.pro

@SailorManCrypto the social media check is underrated. half the blown accounts we've seen started with someone copying a setup from timeline instead of their own chart.

THE 5-MINUTE RULE - CHEAT SHEET Sponsored by WOO X Pro: wooxpro.com/en-US/invite/P… The pause that saves you from the trade that ruins your day. Every trade. Five minutes between deciding to trade and clicking. Not before scanning. Between idea and click. Four checks in those five minutes. CHECK 1: YOURSELF. Body. Breath. Heart. Shoulders tense? Jaw clenched? Three slow breaths. Hand on chest. Is it racing? A routine setup should not spike your heart rate. If it does, something else is driving the urge. Name it. FOMO. Revenge. Boredom. If you cannot relax in 60 seconds, the trade is not ready. CHECK 2: NEWS CALENDAR. Anything in the next 60 minutes? FOMC, CPI, NFP, jobless data. Stop 30 min before, 30 min after. Did news just drop and explain the current move? Then you are not taking the setup. You are chasing the reaction. News invalidates every technical level. Respect the calendar. CHECK 3: SOCIAL MEDIA. Did this idea start on YOUR chart or on someone else's tweet? The dangerous setups are NOT the ones you discover. They are the ones you get fed. You see a chart at 09:43. You take the trade at 09:45. The author posted it 6 hours ago. Your stop is HIS exit. His TP is your trap. Trust YOUR chart and YOUR levels. The crowd's setup is the crowd's exit. If the idea is not yours, the trade is not yours. Skip. CHECK 4: TECHNICAL. The setup either exists in your playbook or it does not. Are you fighting the HTF trend? If yes, you need exceptional confluence. Otherwise the trend wicks you out. Is price respecting the 200 EMA on your TF? Are you entering AT a key level or in the middle of nowhere? Higher highs and higher lows for longs, lower highs and lower lows for shorts. Do you know where the liquidity is? If you do not know, YOU are the liquidity. And here is the one that matters most. Where would you put your stop loss? That level is often where your ENTRY should be. If your SL sits on a clean structural level, your entry is too late. Flip them. Mark the SL. Ask: would price react at that level? If yes, that level is your real entry. Let price come to you. Do not chase. THE EXIT CONDITION. After 5 minutes, all 4 checks passed = click. Any check failed = do not click. The next setup is 10 minutes away. The trade you skip is free money saved. The trade you take from emotion is money you wish you had skipped. Protect the capital. Protect the process. Save it. Read it before every trade for a week. Then tell me what changed. Sponsored by @WOO_X Pro. Zero fees on spot. Pro-grade execution.

@the_smart_ape the macro cheat sheet is solid. most retail traders skip this entirely and wonder why their technicals fail on news days.

everything you need to check at the start of the week to understand why stocks, crypto and commodities are moving: almost every move in stocks, crypto, gold, real estate comes down to one number: the fed's rate. inflation + jobs → tell the fed what to do with rates → rates set the price of literally everything else. why? > borrowing gets expensive → companies invest less, people spend less. > a government bond paying 4-5% "risk-free" competes with stocks and crypto. money leaves risky stuff for the safe stuff. > future profits get discounted harder → today's value drops. this hits tech and crypto worst, because their whole value is in the future. so main question every monday is: is the fed cutting, hiking or holding? the market doesn't react to the number. it reacts to the gap between the number and what everyone expected. 3% inflation is good news if everyone expected 3.5%, and bad news if they expected 2.5%. what to check: 1/ the fed funds rate > between meetings the rate is frozen, what moves markets daily is the expectations. > cme fedwatch is the #1 tool: tells you what's already priced in (a cut at 95% odds = nothing happens). watch the change week to week: cmegroup.com/markets/intere… 2/ inflation hot inflation = no cuts. cooling = the fed's hands are free. falling inflation = good for risk. > cpi: the headline gauge, monthly. read core (ex food & energy) and actual vs forecast. hotter = bad, cooler = good. → bls.gov/cpi/ > core pce: the gauge the fed targets (goal: 2%). matters more than cpi. → fred.stlouisfed.org/series/PCEPILFE 3/ jobs > nfp: nonfarm payrolls, net jobs, first friday of the month. read jobs vs forecast, unemployment rate, and wages (hot wages = sticky inflation = tough fed). → bls.gov/news.release/e… > jobless claims: weekly (thursday) pulse. a steady climb = labor market rolling over before nfp shows it. → fred.stlouisfed.org/series/ICSA > adp: private payrolls 2 days before nfp. rough preview, tracks the real number poorly. → adpemploymentreport.com 4/ growth & activity > gdp: broadest measure, quarterly. two negative quarters = informal recession. → bea.gov/data/gdp/gross… > retail sales: the consumer is the engine. spends = economy holds, pulls back = slowdown. → census.gov/retail/sales.h… > umich sentiment: household mood + inflation expectations (can self-fulfill). → sca.isr.umich.edu 5/ live prices > us 10-year yield: the reference price of money worldwide. ripping higher = pain for tech and crypto, falling = they breathe. watch the direction. → fred.stlouisfed.org/series/DGS10 > 2s10s curve: the recession oracle, when it inverts (negative), the bond market bets on a slowdown. every inversion since 1976 preceded a recession. the recession starts when it un-inverts. → fred.stlouisfed.org/series/T10Y2Y > dxy: dollar index, strong dollar = brake on stocks, commodities and crypto. weak = tailwind. → finance.yahoo.com/quote/DX-Y.NYB/ 6/ commodities > oil (wti/brent): expensive oil feeds inflation, makes the fed's job harder; also a read on global demand. > gold: rises on fear, falling real rates, weak dollar, fiat distrust. the monday routine: 1/ take the temperature > 10y yield: up or down vs last week? > dxy: strong or weak? > vix: calm (<20) or stressed (>30)? > high yield spreads: tight or widening? 2/ read the fed > cme fedwatch: did cut odds rise or fall this week? > any fomc meeting, minutes or major speech this week? 3/ scan the week's data > open an econ calendar, filter for high impact (us), note the prints: cpi, pce, nfp, jobless claims, ism, retail sales. > for each one: what's the forecast? 4/ check the edges > oil (wti/brent), gold, copper: direction? > crypto: fear & greed + btc etf flows

@propfundedai payout speed matters, but the evaluation structure matters more. if the challenge rules punish you for winning (trailing drawdown, tight time limits), fast payouts don't help because you never get there.

The old prop firm model is officially dead. Waiting weeks for a payout while a compliance team drags their feet is a relic of the past. If you’re trading crypto or gold or stocks, you need a platform that moves at the speed of the blockchain. While other firms are struggling with processing delays and opaque payout queues, we are setting a completely new standard for how funded traders get paid. Here is why our payout game is absolute lights out right now: -First Trade Payouts You don’t have to wait a month to see the fruits of your labor. You can secure a withdrawal right after your first successful trade. -One Day Payout Processing (Average <5 Mins) Say goodbye to the standard 14-day hold. Payouts are fully automated via blockchain and routinely land directly in your wallet in under 5 minutes. 24/7. -On-Chain Proof of Reserves No guessing games. Every single dollar of funded capital is backed 1:1 by real liquidity pools on the Binance Smart Chain. It’s publicly auditable, completely transparent, and immutable. -Up to 80% Profit Split They offer a heavy baseline split, but if you share your payout certificate on social media, they bump you up to an 80% split. They actually want to celebrate your wins. -No KYC Friction Trade privately, trade freely. You pass the evaluation, you get funded, you get paid. Period. The community leaderboard is flashing green with live USDT withdrawals hitting TRON and BSC networks every single day. If you have the skill, they have the liquidity. Stop leaving your capital tied up in slow legacy systems. Check out our live payout feed and grab a challenge.

@SailorManCrypto the weeks where nothing works are the ones that build the edge. staying in the game when it's ugly is the whole point. Hang tight.

GM friends, Not an easy trading week for me so far, but we keep clicking. Trader wins, trader loses, trader learns, trader never gives up.

most prop firms make their money when you fail. you blow an account, you buy another challenge. rinse, repeat. that model only works if traders keep losing. we built ours differently. if you prove you can trade but fall short of the full target, you get a free retry. here's exactly how it works. you take a ZoneX challenge at full price (no promo discount). you trade it seriously. at some point during the evaluation, you hit 5% profit. but maybe the market turns, maybe you take a bad setup, and you finish without reaching the full target. as long as you didn't breach your drawdown or daily loss limits, you get to go again. same challenge, same size, no extra fee. why does this matter? because the evaluation is supposed to filter for skill, not punish you for one rough week. a trader who proved they can make 5% but didn't close out at 8% or 10% is a completely different case from someone who blew through their risk limits on day two. most firms treat both the same. you failed, pay again. we think that's broken. the 5% threshold proves you have edge. the fact that you stayed within risk limits proves you have discipline. both of those things matter more than whether one specific run hit the exact target number. the conditions are simple: 1. challenge purchased at full price (promo discounts don't include free retry) 2. you reached 5% profit at some point during the challenge 3. you didn't breach the static drawdown limit 4. you didn't breach the daily loss limit (on challenge types that have one) if all four are true, you retry for free. there's a reason we do this. we trade our own capital on the same terminal we give to our traders. we built the platform over 4+ years because we needed it ourselves first. that means we understand what it feels like to have a solid month of trading derailed by one bad day. the challenge fee is the only fee paid to participate in the evaluation. we're not looking to collect it twice from someone who already showed they can trade. this won't guarantee you pass on the retry. trading is trading, and outcomes are never certain. but it means the system isn't designed to profit from your near misses. zonex.pro

A $100K crypto futures position on your own exchange costs roughly $4,500 at 20x leverage. A ZoneX 2-Step evaluation for a $100K incentive-eligible account costs $329. Same markets. Same charts. Same opportunities. One path risks thousands in personal capital. The other costs a challenge fee. The evaluation is simulated. The challenge fee is the only fee paid to participate. Most traders don't pass, and results depend entirely on your own decisions. But if you trade with discipline, performance incentives let you keep the upside without your own capital on the line. zonex.pro

Most traders pick a challenge based on price. That's backwards. The right question: which ruleset matches how you actually trade? Your Own Style (YOS) Any strategy. 5% daily loss limit. Futures and Spot. From $79 (2-Step) / $112 (1-Step) for $5K. Forced Profitability (FP) Lowest fees. No daily or weekly loss limits beyond the 10% static drawdown. Futures and Spot. From $59 (2-Step) / $79 (1-Step) for $5K. High Conviction (HC) Futures only. No daily or weekly loss limits beyond static drawdown. Fewer restrictions, higher fees. From $187 (2-Step) / $249 (1-Step) for $5K. All three include the ZoneX trading terminal. Accounts from $5K to $400K. No time limits. zonex.pro

@whalesmovement We're receiving DMs. You should have no issue sending us a DM

90% of blown prop firm accounts have one thing in common: no position sizing rules. you can have the best entries in the world. if your risk per trade is random, you will blow the account. set your max risk before you open the chart. every single time.

we could have licensed a terminal and launched in 6 months. instead we spent 4 years building our own from scratch. every integration, every risk engine, every execution layer. when you trade your own capital on it, "good enough" stops being an option.

@Hobs_131 Or conversely, you can DM us here. Thanks again

@zonex_ch Hey there, i experienced a bug while interacting with your web terminal. How do i reach out to the team to report this??

Most platforms are built to acquire users. ZoneX was built to solve trader's problems. We trade. We know the frustrations. We know where money gets lost. We know what actually matters. That's why we spent 4 years building the platform we trust with our own capital: Get zonex.pro #Crypto #BTC #Trading
