BrightFunded Futures

TL;DR

BrightFunded Futures sells two one-step CME futures evaluations, BrightCore and BrightPlus, on NinjaTrader, Tradovate and TradingView. Both ask for a 6% target with no daily loss limit, no minimum days and no time limit, and both pay 80% (100% with an add-on). With code BRIDGE a $25K account starts at $72 (BrightPlus) or $78 (BrightCore).

Who This Prop Firm Is For

Day traders on CME futures who close before the bell and want no daily loss limit. BrightCore suits traders who give back some profit intraday and want an end-of-day limit; BrightPlus suits consistent traders who want their money out daily.

Risk profile

The rules are clear and published in full. The main traps are the intraday trailing limit on BrightPlus and the 15-second minimum trade duration for scalpers.

Pros & Cons

The two programmes

BrightCore is the value plan. Its max loss limit trails at end of day, so intraday swings do not move it. You pass with a 6% target and a 40% consistency rule that only applies in the evaluation. Once funded, a payout opens every 5 winning days (3 with the 3-Day add-on); a winning day is a closed net of at least $100 on 25K, $200 on 50K and $300 on 100K and 150K. Each payout is the lowest of the cycle cap ($1,000 / $2,000 / $3,000 / $4,000), 50% of profit, or the balance above start + $100, and the loss limit locks at start + $100 once the first payout is approved.

BrightPlus is the faster plan. Its loss limit trails intraday in real time, and its evaluation consistency rule is 50%. Funded, there are no winning-day counts: once the balance passes the buffer (start + loss limit + $100), you can request from $250 a day, with the first payout possible 24 hours after your first trade. After each payout you need fresh profit of 1% of the account size. The daily cap is $1,000 / $2,000 / $3,000 / $4,000, doubled with the 2x add-on.
