Axion Funded offers three simulated evaluation models: Instant, 1-Step and 2-Step. Every model is a simulated account with a virtual balance, and all rules are shown before you buy. This guide explains how the models differ so you can pick the one that fits your trading style.
The three models
- Instant — No evaluation phase. You start on a simulated funded (live) account straight away and trade under the funded-stage rules.
- 1-Step — One evaluation phase. Reach the profit target while respecting the risk limits, and you move to a simulated funded account.
- 2-Step — Two evaluation phases (Phase 1 and Phase 2) with lower targets per phase, then a simulated funded account.
Account sizes
Each model is available in simulated balances from $5,000 to $200,000. Typical sizes are $5K, $10K, $25K, $50K, $100K and $200K. The exact sizes and prices for each model are shown on the checkout page.
Quick comparison
| Model | Evaluation phases | Profit target to pass | Reward split (funded) | Best for |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Instant | None | No target | 70% | Starting on a funded account immediately |
| 1-Step | 1 phase | 9% | 80% | The fastest route to funded |
| 2-Step | 2 phases | 8%, then 5% | 80% | Lower targets and a steadier pace |

Which model should I choose?
Choose 2-Step if you prefer smaller targets spread across two phases. Choose 1-Step if you want a single phase and a faster path to funded. Choose Instant if you'd rather skip the evaluation and begin on a simulated funded account right away. You can tailor the rules further with add-ons such as News Trading, Weekend Holding and Extra Drawdown.
