One decision a day

One decision a day keeps you inside the limits.

The whole plan is drawn and risk-sized before you act — entry, structure-based stop and three targets, already on your chart. Taking one clean setup a day is how you respect the daily-loss limit and the consistency rule instead of over-trading a challenge away.

  • Entry on the exact candle that triggered it — no chasing
  • Structure-based stop set so one trade can't breach the daily loss
  • TP1 / TP2 / TP3 sized so the reward walks you toward the profit target
  • Fires by push, email and a chart alert — no need to sit and watch
  • Works on MT4 & MT5 at any prop firm

Signals tab

A scored book to trade selectively, not all at once

The book keeps every signal the engine has produced across your firm's allowed instruments, re-scored on each closed bar. Nothing is quietly deleted — so you wait for the setups worth a slot in your day rather than taking them all and tripping the consistency rule.

  • A 1–5 score to be picky with

    Model, timeframe and entry zone on every row, each rated so you take only the Q4+ setups — the selectivity that keeps an evaluation consistent.

  • Ran · Missed · Invalid, recorded

    Every outcome is written down and kept — the honest track record you'd want before you put a challenge fee behind an engine.

  • The day's count resets with the session

    A clean tally of what fired today, so you pace entries against the daily-loss limit and don't burn the whole budget by lunch.

Levels to size your stop within the daily limit

Classic floor-trader pivots for the current chart, built from yesterday's open, high, low and close — and rendered as bands, because price reacts to areas, not to a single hairline. This is structure you can anchor a stop to and know, before you click, that the risk stays inside your daily-loss budget.

  • R3 → S3, each with its own band

    The full pivot ladder plus the central pivot, so you see which level price is really trading into before you commit a single trade's risk.

  • Live distance in pips

    How far price sits from every level right now, updating on the tick — so you place a stop at real structure and keep it under your max daily loss.

  • The inputs shown, not hidden

    Yesterday's O/H/L/C are on the card so you can check the maths, and one switch puts the whole set on the chart.

Spend your one trade on the cleanest allowed pair

Twenty-eight crosses reduced to eight currencies and ranked live, so you read the strength of the currency itself — not the noise of one pair's move — and put your single funded-account trade on the clearest side the market is offering.

  • Ranked strongest to weakest

    Re-sorted on every update from the full 28-cross matrix, not a single pair's candle.

  • Strongest against weakest

    Pair the top with the bottom and you have the cleanest trend pair on the board — here, EUR against NZD — the kind of setup worth one of your limited daily trades.

  • Prop-firm agnostic

    Reads the same at every prop firm and every symbol suffix, so the ranking is comparable wherever you're funded.

Session tab

Trade the live sessions without over-exposing your budget

Asia, Europe and New York on the prop firm's own clock — GMT offset and daylight saving handled for you — beside a 24-hour volatility profile built from the last 20 days, so you know whether this hour is normally quiet, medium or busy before you commit part of your daily-loss budget to it.

SMC tab

Show only the confluence that earns an entry

Smart-money structure is drawn only when you turn it on. Nothing clutters the chart by default — each layer is its own switch, so you build exactly the read that justifies putting a funded account behind a trade, and skip the setups that don't clear the bar.

  • One switch per layer

    Market and internal structure, swing points, premium/discount, FVG, iFVG, BPR, Unicorn, Inducement, SFP, sessions and levels.

  • Clean by default

    Everything starts off, so the chart shows only the confluence you chose — no wall of boxes clouding a decision that puts your challenge fee at stake.

  • Layers and zones stay in sync

    Flip a zone's layer and its live count follows, because on the panel the switch and the drawing are one setting.

Narrow to the engine that keeps you consistent

Every signal comes from one of three models, each reading the market a different way. Run them together for coverage, or single out the one whose selectivity keeps you inside the consistency rule and stops you over-trading — and each keeps its own count of what's live in the book.

  • Turbo Breakout (A)

    Reactions at levels the market built earlier and returned to — fast, structure-led entries.

  • MasterAI (B)

    The AI-weighted model, blending the confluence signals into a single scored read.

  • Rayan (C)

    The confirmation-heavy engine for traders who want fewer, higher-conviction setups to protect a funded account.

Tune the frequency down to a rule-safe cadence

Each engine exposes its settings in plain language, not cryptic inputs. Loosen for more signals, tighten for fewer — every row tells you which way it trades frequency against selectivity, so you can settle the engine on the low, one-a-day cadence that keeps a challenge inside its daily-loss limit and consistency rule.

  • Strictness in one row

    Slide from Vloose to Vtight to move the whole engine between more setups and fewer, cleaner, evaluation-safe ones.

  • Filters you can read

    Quality filter, structure needed, reaction room, level lifetime and settling time — each with a plain hint.

  • New settings apply from here on

    Change a dial and it affects future bars; what's already in the book keeps the settings it was found under.

The problem

Why traders fail prop firm challenges

The evaluation isn't really testing your entries. It's testing whether you can stay inside the rails for weeks — and that's where humans crack.

  • One overshoot ends the account.

    Push past the daily drawdown by a single trade and it's gone — weeks of good reads wiped by one bad afternoon.

  • News rules are easy to forget.

    A valid ICT setup right into a high-impact release can be a breach on many firms, even if the trade would have won.

  • Consistency rules quietly disqualify you.

    One outsized winning day can fail a challenge you were otherwise passing — a rule most traders only learn about after it costs them.

Market scanner

Scan the market inside your prop rules

The EA scans every pair for you — and on a challenge, each setup is checked against your drawdown line before it is allowed to fire.

  • One panel, every pair

    The whole market scans in a single view — you don't have to choose which chart to babysit.

  • Sized to the rules first

    Before any pair can fire, the trade is sized so a full stop stays inside your daily drawdown line.

  • News windows honoured

    Setups landing inside a restricted release simply don't fire — the breach never happens.

The fit

Why FundingPips is a strong home for the ICT EA

FundingPips removes the two things that punish an automated ICT strategy most: a clock and a stingy split.

1-Step or 2-Step — pick the FundingPips route the EA sizes to

FundingPips runs a 1-Step challenge alongside 2-Step Standard and 2-Step Pro, so you choose how many phases to clear rather than being boxed into one fixed shape. The EA reads whichever route you buy and sizes to that plan's exact daily and overall limits — tighter on the single-phase account, then carries the same ICT logic straight onto the 2-Step and the funded stage.

Sized against FundingPips's 5% daily, 10% overall lines

The EA reads FundingPips's 5% daily and 10% overall loss limits from your plan and position-sizes every ICT entry to stay clear of both — the account-management gap that fails more evaluations than a weak read ever does.

No clock to fight

With no time limit on FundingPips accounts, the EA only takes A-grade order block and fair value gap setups instead of forcing entries to beat a deadline.

One file, every FundingPips model

The same MT5 file runs on FundingPips's 1-Step, 2-Step Standard, 2-Step Pro or Instant accounts — you just enter that plan's numbers into the EA's risk panel.

The reason most challenges fail

The EA stops before the line — not after

Blowing the drawdown is the No.1 way traders fail an evaluation they had the skill to pass. The EA sizes and throttles against FundingPips's limits, so it backs off well before the breach.

Challenge, day by day

How the EA runs a prop challenge

A challenge is won by staying inside the rules for weeks, not by one good entry. Here is how that plays out.

  1. Day 1 · 08:00
    Inside the rails

    It knows your limits before it trades.

    Your firm's daily and overall drawdown, news windows and consistency targets are loaded — every trade is weighed against them first.

  2. Day 1 · 08:20
    London setup

    A valid ICT entry, correctly sized.

    The setup fires, sized so even a full stop stays comfortably inside the daily drawdown line.

  3. Day 2 · 14:00
    News window

    It stands down for the release.

    A valid setup lands right into a high-impact release — the EA simply doesn't fire, so a breach never happens.

  4. Day 4
    Consistency held

    No single day runs away.

    Even, repeatable sizing keeps any one day from tripping the consistency rule that quietly fails so many traders.

  5. Payout
    Funded, protected

    Same discipline, real money.

    The evaluation passes and the identical guards carry into the funded account, where protecting the payout matters most.

Who it's for

Who this prop firm EA is for

It's built for the trader a challenge actually trips up, and honest about who it isn't for.

This is for you if

  • You've blown challenges on one bad afternoon, not on bad strategy.
  • You keep forgetting a firm's news or consistency rule in the heat of a trade.
  • You want the drawdown line defended by software, not willpower.
  • You want the same discipline to carry from evaluation into funded.

This isn't for you if

  • You want a guaranteed pass — no tool can promise one, and anyone who does is lying.
  • You prefer to place every challenge trade by hand.
  • You're still learning the basics and aren't ready to automate an evaluation.

Reviews

Reviews from FundingPips traders

Traders on running the ICT AI Signal EA day to day.

    The EA sizes every entry off the live distance to the 5% daily and 10% overall lines. That account-management gap is what used to fail me — never the reads.
  • Consuelo P. FundingPips challenge trader · via Trustpilot
    With no time limit I never rushed to hit the 3-day minimum. The EA just spread genuine setups across sessions and cleared it without me forcing anything.
  • Hassan D. FundingPips funded trader · via Telegram
    I set FundingPips's news windows into the panel and it stopped opening trades during the blackout on its own. One less way to fail the evaluation.

Frequently asked questions

How does the EA connect to my FundingPips account?

You run it directly on the MT5 terminal FundingPips issues for your challenge — there's no separate bridge, copier or third-party platform to connect.

Which FundingPips account type works best with it?

Any MT5 plan works, but the EA's edge shows best with no time limit at your back — FundingPips's 1-Step, 2-Step Standard or 2-Step Pro all pair well since none of them impose a deadline.

Do I need MT4 or MT5 for FundingPips?

FundingPips issues MT5 accounts, and the EA is built natively for MT5 — no MT4 version is needed.

Does FundingPips allow EAs and automated trading?

Yes. FundingPips permits algorithmic trading, including this ICT EA, on its evaluation and funded accounts.

Can it guarantee I pass FundingPips?

No. Nothing can guarantee a pass. What the EA does is enforce the discipline most traders breach on their own — sizing and stopping every trade against FundingPips's daily and overall loss limits on a backtested ICT edge.

Do I need a VPS to run this on FundingPips?

A VPS isn't required, but since FundingPips accounts have no time limit and killzone setups can appear outside your screen time, a VPS keeps the EA watching structure while your MT5 terminal stays online.

Can I set my own risk per trade?

Yes. You set your per-trade risk percentage in the EA's panel; it then sizes every position to stay inside whichever FundingPips plan's daily and overall loss limits you entered.

What does the EA do about FundingPips's minimum trading days?

It doesn't need to force trades to hit the 3-day minimum — with no time limit, it can space genuine ICT setups across sessions and still clear the requirement naturally.

Is the license really free?

Yes. SignalBots is an Introducing Broker, so the license is free for life — support activates it once you're trading through your FundingPips account, no card or subscription required.

What does it cost to run the EA on FundingPips?

The EA itself is free. You only pay FundingPips's own challenge fee for the plan size you choose.

Does the EA respect FundingPips's news-trading rules?

Yes. You set FundingPips's news windows in the EA's panel and it blocks new entries during those blackout periods automatically.

Is my capital at risk?

Yes. Trading a FundingPips challenge or funded account carries real risk, and no result is guaranteed. Read the full risk warning before you trade.

Compliance & regulation

The rules, risks & regulators behind automated trading

The platform’s own conditions, the market’s risks, and the regulators that oversee it — organised in one place so you can check each before you automate a single trade.

FundingPips — licences & bot policy

FundingPips is a proprietary-trading firm, not a broker: challenge and funded accounts trade simulated capital on a demo-style setup, and automation is allowed only within its published EA rules.

  • FundingPips is not a licensed retail broker. Its trading accounts run on a demo/simulated environment tied to a challenge-and-payout model, not a live brokerage account holding your own capital; the firm's group entity holds an SEC-2.1B Investment Dealer licence from the Mauritius Financial Services Commission (granted June 2026), which covers its corporate dealing activity rather than the challenge accounts themselves.
  • Full automation is only permitted on your own personally-coded EA, and you must be able to prove ownership (source code, version history, or an explanation of the logic) if asked. Third-party EAs are allowed strictly as trade or risk managers, not to generate or execute trades on your behalf — using one to fully automate entries voids the evaluation or funded account.
  • Forbidden practices include high-frequency trading, latency/reverse arbitrage, tick scalping, gap trading, server-execution exploits, hedging or long-short arbitrage across accounts, and letting anyone else trade the account for you.
  • A signal-driven EA like SignalBots' must stay within these limits on a FundingPips account: keep it as a self-owned or risk-managing tool, avoid the listed prohibited strategies, and expect account review or closure if the firm judges the automation as fully autonomous third-party trading.

Prop-firm market risks

What to weigh before you run any EA on a funded-challenge account.

  • Challenge providers are largely unregulated: they are not licensed brokers, don't register with the CFTC or NFA, and you trade simulated capital under a fee-for-service contract — not a protected brokerage account.
  • Because they aren't brokers, funds aren't segregated client money and there is no FSCS / SIPC-style deposit protection if a firm delays payouts or ceases operating.
  • The CFTC's 2023 case against “My Forex Funds” (later dismissed on procedural grounds in 2025) alleged the firm secretly traded against its own funded clients — an illustration of the counterparty conflict built into the challenge-fee model.
  • Platform access is a live risk: from February 2024 MetaQuotes revoked MT4 / MT5 licences from brokers grey-labelling to prop firms over US-regulatory exposure, stranding some firms' accounts through no fault of the trader.

Official sources

Global regulators

The international bodies that oversee automated and retail trading. These references hold wherever you run the EA — confirm the rules for your own jurisdiction before you enable AutoTrading.

  • Under the EU's MiFID II, firms running algorithmic strategies must keep pre-trade risk controls, governance and testing in place — ESMA extended that scrutiny to AI-driven trading systems in 2026.
  • The FCA (UK) and ASIC (Australia) cap retail CFD leverage from 30:1 down to 2:1 and require negative-balance protection — a hard limit on the exposure any EA can take on a retail account.
  • Regulators consistently report that most retail CFD accounts lose money; automating the entries does not change that base rate.
  • CySEC, the FCA, ASIC and the CFTC all warn that an 'AI trading bot' promising guaranteed or risk-free returns is itself a fraud red flag — legitimate automation never guarantees a result.

Regulators

United States

US persons face a distinct set of rules for automated forex, futures and securities trading — and a specific regulator advisory aimed at trading bots.

  • The CFTC's advisory “AI Won't Turn Trading Bots into Money Machines” names automated-bot and AI-signal scams directly — one fake-AI forex-bot case ended in a $3.4 billion judgment.
  • Retail off-exchange forex dealers must register with the CFTC and be NFA Forex Dealer Members; soliciting retail forex orders — including for an automated system — requires NFA registration.
  • The SEC, NASAA and FINRA jointly warn that a phrase like “our proprietary AI system can't lose” signals an unregistered scheme, not legitimate automation.
  • FINRA Rule 3110 makes member firms supervise, test and register the people behind an algorithmic strategy — the institutional bar for 'supervised' automated trading.
