IC Funded is a prop trading firm built around simulated evaluations that lead to funded accounts after a trader passes the required challenge phases and completes KYC. The firm offers two core routes: 1-Step Accelerated and 2-Step Professional. Across those programs, account sizes range from $5,000 to $500,000, with traders keeping a fixed 80/20 profit split once funded.
The firm also presents a broader identity around trader support and structure. The firm emphasizes tailored evaluations, community, and partnership with IC Markets, while access is provided through supported platforms including MT5 and cTrader.

IC Funded will be at Prop Firm Expo London as a Silver Sponsor. That gives attendees more than a quick booth stop. You can hear how IC Funded explains its model publicly, then use the booth conversation to test whether the firm's route structure, payout timing, and risk framework fit the way you trade.
What makes IC Funded worth a closer look is not the number of routes, but the contrast between them. IC Funded gives traders fewer core choices than many firms, which makes the real differences between them easier to evaluate. The key decision is not between six or seven slight variations. It is between a faster 1-Step Accelerated path and a more structured 2-Step Professional path.
That distinction matters because the risk framework changes meaningfully. The 2-Step Professional route uses a 10% profit target in Phase 1 and 5% in Phase 2, with 4% daily drawdown and 8% maximum drawdown in Step 1, then 5% daily drawdown and 10% maximum drawdown in Step 2. The 1-Step Accelerated route requires a 10% target with 3% daily drawdown, 6% overall drawdown, and a 45% consistency rule. Both routes are presented as structured, but they do not behave the same in practice.
Payout logic is another area worth understanding early. Funded accounts are eligible for a first payout 14 calendar days after activation, but traders must also complete at least 5 profitable trading days, with each profitable day showing a gain of at least 0.5% of the balance. That means the first withdrawal is not just a time-based milestone. It is tied to trading behavior and account activity as well.
The drawdown model is also clearer than many traders expect. IC Funded uses an equity-based absolute drawdown model, which means the limit is fixed from the starting balance and does not trail upward as profits increase. That alone is worth clarifying in person, because it changes how many traders think about account management.
The IC Funded booth is most useful once you move beyond the headline promise and start narrowing the route that actually suits you. Expect the strongest conversations to revolve around:
This should also be a useful booth for traders who want a cleaner comparison. IC Funded gives you fewer core paths than some firms, which makes the differences between them easier to pressure-test in person.
