AtmosFunded - Prop Firm Review

Company and regulation

Atmos’s corporate identity is stated two different ways, which is worth setting out. The binding Customer Agreement names the operating entity as Taurex Digital for Marketing Research and Consultancies L.L.C., incorporated in Dubai — note that legal form, “Marketing Research and Consultancies,” not a broker. Other documents name a Cyprus company, AtmosFunded Ltd (registration HE471627). Two jurisdictions, and no financial regulator named for either.

What Atmos does have that many peers do not is a real broker behind it: Taurex. That is a genuine point of difference — and you can even move your payout to a live Taurex trading account (with an advertised 10% deposit bonus).

But the accounts you trade are simulated, and the Customer Agreement is blunt: “The funds made available to the Customer for trading purposes are purely virtual and are not real.” The homepage headline “keep 90% of your profits” sits over that virtual-funds reality.

The split and the drawdown

On the split, the binding Terms are clear even though the marketing is not: the base is 80/20 in your favour for all account types, and “higher splits may be available for purchase as account add-ons.” So the “keep 90%” on the homepage is a paid upgrade, not the default and not earned through performance. Treat 80% as what you get.

The drawdown differs by product and is spelled out in the risk table: 1-Step (6%) and Instant (5%) trail your highest equity; 2-Step (10%) is static from your initial balance. Everything is measured on equity (balance plus open P&L), the daily limit is 3% or 5% by type, and — a genuinely trader-friendly detail — the trailing floor locks at your starting balance the moment you request a payout: “upon requesting a payout, your maximum trailing drawdown equity breach level will automatically lock in at your starting balance.” Any breach is a hard breach, closing all positions and forfeiting profit.

The rules that actually gate a payout

Atmos’s rulebook is one of the more transparent and itemised in this project — which is to its credit — but the funded-stage rules are specific and worth knowing before you buy, because they are what decide whether you get paid.

• Consistency: “No single trading day can account for more than 20% of… total generated profit for the payout period.” One outsized day can push you offside and block the payout until you dilute it.
• Minimum hold: 45 seconds per trade. Tick scalping (under 15 seconds) is prohibited, and so is reversing a position within 90 seconds.
• A “profitable day” must be at least 0.5% of your initial balance to count toward your minimum days — a token trade will not tick the box.
• News is prohibited within five minutes either side of high-impact events, with profits deleted if you breach.
• Trade frequency is capped at 30 trades per hour per product.

On the plus side, weekend and overnight holding are allowed, personal EAs are permitted, and the time limit is effectively unlimited (only a 60-day inactivity expiry). So this is a firm that welcomes patient, position-style trading and actively discourages fast, high-frequency or news-driven approaches.

The $5 Nova Challenge

Worth a specific mention because it is Atmos’s most distinctive product and a clear customer-acquisition funnel: the Nova Challenge is “$5. One phase. No minimum days. No consistency” — hit a 5% target while respecting an 8% max loss. The 8% drawdown is actually looser than the standard products, and the usual minimum-days and consistency gates are removed. It is a cheap, low-friction way to test the platform, and an obvious top-of-funnel offer — just be aware that the full-price products it leads to carry the tighter rules above.

Payouts

• Minimum: $100. Cycle: every 14 calendar days (5 days on Instant). Processing: up to 3 business days.
• Methods: crypto, bank wire, or transfer to a live Taurex account (with a 10% deposit bonus).
• Fees: a one-off, non-refundable challenge fee; no recurring monthly charge. The higher split is the only named paid add-on.

Verdict

Atmos Funded is a capable, transparent firm with a real advantage most peers lack: broker backing from Taurex and an optional path to move funds to a live account. Its rulebook is unusually detailed and honest — a full risk table, a defined 45-second hold, a stated 20% consistency rule, named prohibited practices — and it pairs an unlimited time limit, weekend holding and personal EAs with a low $100 payout and a fast 14-day cycle.

Go in clear on three things: the “keep 90%” split is a paid add-on over an 80/20 base; the operator is a Dubai “marketing research” company (with a separate Cyprus entity), unregulated, trading purely virtual funds; and the funded rules — 20% consistency, 45-second hold, 0.5%-per-day, no news — are specific enough to catch out fast or streaky traders. For a patient CFD trader who values broker backing and reads the risk table, it is one of the more solid options in this tier.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is Atmos Funded regulated?

No. The binding Customer Agreement names the operator as Taurex Digital for Marketing Research and Consultancies L.L.C. in Dubai, with a separate Cyprus entity (AtmosFunded Ltd) on other documents, and no financial regulator is named for either. It is broker-backed by Taurex, which is a genuine point of difference, but the prop product itself is unregulated.

What is the Atmos Funded profit split?

The binding Terms set the base split at 80/20 in your favour for all account types, and state that higher splits may be purchased as add-ons. So the “keep 90%” advertised on the homepage is a paid upgrade, not the default rate and not earned through performance.

Is the Atmos Funded drawdown trailing or static?

It depends on the product. The 1-Step (6%) and Instant (5%) accounts trail your highest equity, while the 2-Step (10%) uses a static floor from your initial balance. Everything is measured on equity, and the trailing floor locks at your starting balance the moment you request a payout.

What is the Atmos Funded Nova Challenge?

Nova is a $5 single-phase promo with no minimum days and no consistency rule — you hit a 5% target while respecting an 8% max loss, which is actually looser than the standard products. It is a cheap, low-friction way to test the platform and a clear customer-acquisition funnel, but the full-price products it leads to carry tighter rules.

What are Atmos Funded’s main funded rules?

The key ones are a 20% consistency rule (no single day above 20% of your payout-period profit), a 45-second minimum hold with tick scalping under 15 seconds banned, a requirement that a “profitable day” be at least 0.5% of your initial balance, a no-news window of five minutes either side of high-impact events, and a cap of 30 trades per hour per product. Weekend holding and personal EAs are allowed.

Are Atmos Funded accounts simulated?

Yes. The Customer Agreement states plainly that the funds made available for trading are purely virtual and are not real, and defines the plan size as virtual funds. Payouts are performance rewards on simulated trading, not profits from real market trading, though you can move a payout to a live Taurex account.

How do Atmos Funded payouts work?

The minimum payout is $100, on a 14-day cycle (5 days for Instant accounts), processed within up to three business days. Payouts can be taken in crypto, by bank wire, or transferred to a live Taurex trading account with an advertised 10% deposit bonus. A single day may not exceed 20% of your payout-period profit under the consistency rule.
