Main Benefits
Flat 90% profit split from the first dollar with no threshold or tiers; single-phase evaluation with no minimum trading days; soft-breach system closes the offending trade instead of the account (two soft breaches before a hard breach); crypto, CFD and futures under one firm; no minimum payout size.
Main Drawbacks
Trailing end-of-day drawdown on both the evaluation and the funded account; a hard 30% consistency rule on funded accounts (40% on Rapid); recurring monthly management fee per funded account; futures accounts are intraday only with no hedging; evaluation fees are non-refundable; the site's own pages disagree on the operating jurisdiction (Saint Lucia in the imprint, UAE in the FAQ).

Write a ReviewIQ Capital is a proprietary trading firm that allocates its own capital to traders who pass a single-phase evaluation or buy an instant-funding account. It runs two product families side by side: CFD and crypto accounts on MetaTrader 5 and Volumetrica, and futures accounts on Deepchart, ATAS and Quantower. Each family is sold in three product types - Core (lowest cost, payouts every 10 days), Rapid (faster targets, payouts every 3 days, free activation) and Instant Funding (no challenge, funded from day one). Traders keep a flat 90% of profits from the first dollar, with no threshold and no tiers, and there is no minimum payout size. Drawdown is end-of-day trailing on both the evaluation and the funded account, and the funded account carries a 30% consistency rule (40% on Rapid). The brand is operated by Beyond IQ Capital Ltd. of Gros Islet, Saint Lucia, and was founded by Christoph Radecker.

Additional rules
Third-party Expert Advisors and AI bots are allowed only where the trader has full access to the source code and demonstrable control over the logic. Hedging is available on crypto and CFD hedging accounts but is prohibited in futures, including across accounts and correlated markets. Breaches escalate over three strikes: the first two position-loss breaches are soft breaches that close the trade only, the third is a hard breach that closes the account.
