OUR FUNDED TRADER PROGRAM
The Gauntlet Mini™ is an intraday futures trading exam that guarantees trader funding by our proprietary trading firm partner upon successful completion. Our goal is to offer an opportunity for futures traders who have the skill but lack the capital to become professional traders by bringing them together with a proprietary trading firm.
The Gauntlet Mini™ evaluates your trading performance using a set of rules you follow until you’ve traded at least 15 days and reached the profit target specified by your account size. The Gauntlet Mini™ works on a paid subscription basis, and the examination lasts until you meet your target without breaking the rules or until you cancel or change your plan.
What is the Gauntlet Mini™?
Trader funding
There’s a limit to how much money you can make on a personal trading account without putting up a lot of capital at your futures broker. Our trader funding program, The Gauntlet Mini™, helps you overcome this obstacle by providing capable traders with access to funds in return for a percentage of the money they earn from it.
Choose one of the account types below to take the test on a simulated account and qualify for funding based on the starting size of your evaluation account when you pass.

TESTIMONIALS FROM FUNDED TRADERS
E2T is an awesome company. Their rules say that they really favor the traders. I had a bad experience with another firm and came here to take my evaluation instead. I am very impressed with their support team and rules that they have in place. I look forward to now moving on and working with their partners.
I'm currently trading the gauntlet challenge for the second time. First time I failed on day 7 because I hit the max loss (thought I was in my sim account lol). But truthfully was very motivated and did not mind paying the reset fee because of how much I appreciate the people at earn2trade. I enjoy the interface on their website, and their support will blow you away. They are so quick and helpful to respond it makes the entire experience far less stressful, especially when you need help and had a bad day. Thanks guys.
Effective and professional treatment of the support team. As for the Gauntlet mini, the conditions and rules are perfectly justified if it is intended to have an adequate and lasting consistency.
Fast response when i asked for help, i passed my 50k account and they gave me the live sim pretty quick and im doing well. I would recommend earn2trade. Thank you very much!
Got an awesome experience passing an account of 150k. Challenging Money management objective. Learn a lot from it. 'Winners never quit and Quitters never Win' Fast responsive Support when needed. I strongly recommend Earn2trade for preparation and funding.
E2T is all about you becoming a disciplined trader. Following the rules and sticking to your trading plan is key before thinking about making money. Sim fingers are completely different than going in live .. patience and waiting for your setup is the key. I encourage anyone who is ready to move from a Sim acct to real money to first test your trading skills with an Earn 2 Trade Gauntlet Mini evaluation program .. FYI every month they offer a promotion one of their evaluation programs .. All the best and trade safe!!
The help desk very quick and always efficient, they answered my queries immediately. I passed the gauntlet mini the day before a subscription renewal was due, they ensured that their automated system did not take out the payment. Extremely professional company.

Gauntlet Mini™ FAQ

What happens after you get funded?
- LiveSim Accounts
- Live Accounts
LiveSim Accounts
LiveSim accounts are paper trading accounts. From the trader’s perspective, they function the same as Live accounts, including withdrawing profits, but with a few added benefits:
- LiveSim has a quicker setup. Traders can start trading them within two business days of accepting the funding agreement.
- LiveSim traders get market data for their first exchange for free. Additional exchanges (second and onward) will still need to be paid out of pocket by the trader.
- LiveSim accounts calculate drawdown the same way as your Gauntlet Mini™ attempt. See the relevant FAQ explaining the drawdown calculation here.
LiveSim is only available until you make your first $5,000 (minus the 20% profit split). After that, you will switch to a live account.
Live Accounts
Traders who choose to start trading on a Live account cannot return to a LiveSim account afterward.
- Live accounts take longer to set up because they require filing paperwork with a broker.
- Monthly data fees on Live accounts are $105 for each exchange, including the first.
- Live accounts calculate trailing drawdown based on intraday, open equity gains and losses.
