New to Axion? This guide gives you the full picture — from choosing a challenge to receiving a reward — so you know what each stage involves before you start.
1. Choose your challenge
Pick an evaluation model — Instant, 1-Step or 2-Step — and an account size from $5,000 to $200,000. Every rule is shown before checkout, and you can add options such as News Trading, Weekend Holding or Extra Drawdown to match your style.
2. Create your account and check out
Sign up in the portal, verify your email, and complete your purchase on the checkout page. Your simulated trading account is generated automatically, usually within about 30 seconds.
3. Trade the evaluation
Log in on MetaTrader 4 or 5 and trade toward your profit target while staying inside your daily loss and maximum loss limits. There's no time limit — evaluation time is unlimited — but you do need at least 5 trading days. Instant accounts skip the evaluation and start on a simulated funded account right away.
4. Pass each phase
Reach the profit target for a phase without breaching a risk limit, and you advance. 1-Step has a single phase; 2-Step has two. Once you clear the evaluation, you move to a simulated funded account.
5. Get funded and request rewards
On a funded account you keep a share of your simulated profit — 80% on 1-Step and 2-Step, and 70% on Instant. When you're eligible, submit a reward request from your dashboard; requests are reviewed within about 24 hours under the program terms.
Track everything in one place
Your dashboard shows live balance and equity, objective progress, drawdown, reward requests and certificates — so you always know exactly where you stand.
