Pine Script Strategies for MyFundedFutures — Static Drawdown Rules, Contract Sizing & Eval Guide
MyFundedFutures is one of the cleanest prop firm evals for algo traders — static drawdown, no trailing, no consistency rule, and automation allowed on both eval and funded. A Pine Script with fixed-R entries fits this structure better than any other firm in the space.
MFFU evaluation rules at a glance
| Plan | Profit target | Max drawdown (static) | Daily loss limit | Min trading days |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Starter 50k | $3,000 | $2,000 | $1,250 | None |
| Expert 100k | $6,000 | $3,000 | $2,000 | None |
| Master 150k | $9,000 | $4,500 | $3,000 | None |
Three things make MFFU stand out in the prop firm landscape. First, the drawdown is static — it never moves, no matter how much profit you accumulate. Second, there is no minimum trading days requirement, so a strategy that runs hot early can complete the eval in days rather than weeks. Third, there is no consistency rule — no cap on how much one day can contribute to your total. You can hit $2,000 in a single session and still be in good standing.
Recent rule changes: MFFU replaced its Starter/Expert lineup with Core, Scale and Pro in July 2025 and added the Builder plan and a relaunched Flex in 2026 — dated details in the MyFundedFutures rule changes tracker.
Static drawdown vs. trailing drawdown — why it matters for Pine Scripts
This is the most important concept for any trader considering MFFU. On firms with trailing drawdown (like Apex or Topstep), every profitable run raises the floor. Make $1,500 on a 50k account and your allowed drawdown floor jumps up — so a subsequent losing streak puts you closer to the wall than when you started.
MFFU's static drawdown stays fixed at the starting level. Whether you're up $1,000 or up $2,900 heading toward the target, the floor never moves. The math stays the same from day one to the last trade. This removes one of the biggest psychological traps in prop firm trading — the feeling that you have less room to breathe as you approach the profit target.
For a Pine Script, this is a structural advantage. A strategy with a known edge and a known R-multiple per trade can be sized from the start so that even a maximum losing streak of 10–15 consecutive losses still doesn't approach the static drawdown line. The sizing math is set once and stays consistent across the entire eval — no need to shrink exposure as you get closer to the target.
MFFU contract sizing — how to size it right
Because MFFU has no minimum trading days, you can size more aggressively than on a Topstep 10-day grind — but the daily loss limit still caps how much you can lose in any session. The goal is to size so that a losing day of 3–4 stop-outs stays well below the daily limit:
| Account | Contract | Recommended size | Stop size | Max loss per trade | Losing trades before daily limit |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 50k Starter | MES | 3–5 contracts | 8 points | $60–$100 | 12–20 trades |
| 50k Starter | MNQ | 3–5 contracts | 25 ticks | $37–$62 | 20–33 trades |
| 100k Expert | ES | 1 contract | 6 points | $300 | 6–7 trades |
| 100k Expert | NQ | 1 contract | 15 ticks | $300 | 6–7 trades |
| 150k Master | ES | 1–2 contracts | 6 points | $300–$600 | 5–10 trades |
The absence of trailing drawdown means you can hold your sizing steady from first trade to last without recalculating. On a trailing firm, you'd need to scale back after a big winning day to protect the elevated floor — on MFFU, you just keep executing the same setup at the same size.
No minimum trading days — what this means for algo traders
MFFU has no rule requiring you to trade for a minimum number of days before completing the eval. If your strategy fires five signals on day one, all five win, and you hit the profit target — you're done. This opens up a completely different approach compared to firms like Topstep, which require 10 trading days and 5 winning days regardless of how quickly you hit the target.
In practice, most traders don't blast through in two days — a properly risk-managed Pine Script with realistic position sizing takes 2–4 weeks to reach the target on a 50k account. But on weeks where the market cooperates and your strategy fires strong signals back to back, MFFU doesn't penalize you for running ahead of schedule. The eval closes when you pass — not after a mandatory waiting period.
Automation policy on MFFU
MFFU explicitly permits automated trading on both the eval phase and the live funded account — making it one of the most automation-friendly firms in the futures prop space. You can connect a Pine Script via TradingView alerts to TradersPost and run fully hands-off on both phases. Always check the current MFFU terms of service, as prop firm policies evolve.
How Pine Script strategies are built for MFFU's rule set
Every script in our store is designed around the same core principles that make them a natural fit for MFFU's static drawdown structure:
- Fixed dollar stop per trade. Risk is pre-coded and never changes during the session. You know before the trade fires exactly how much you stand to lose if it stops out.
- One entry per signal, no averaging. A losing trade doesn't get compounded. The script waits for the next setup — it doesn't double down or re-enter on the same move.
- Bar-close confirmation only. Entries trigger on bar close, not on intrabar movement. What you see in the backtest is what executes in live trading — no repainting, no false entries on wicks.
- Daily loss kill switch. If cumulative session losses approach a configurable threshold (default 80% of MFFU's daily limit), the script stops firing entries for the rest of the session. Prevents a bad morning from becoming a daily limit breach.
- RTH session filter. Restricts entries to Regular Trading Hours — the clearest, highest-volume window for MES, MNQ, ES, and NQ. Keeps the strategy out of overnight sessions where spreads widen and signals are noisier.
- TradersPost webhook output. Fires alerts in TradersPost format for direct execution into your MFFU Tradovate or Rithmic feed — no manual order entry required.
Which plan fits an MFFU trader?
The 50k Starter pairs with the Starter plan ($50) — MES or MNQ, sized for the $2,000 static drawdown floor. The 100k Expert and 150k Master tiers pair with the Pro plan ($80) on ES or NQ. If you have your own rules — specific indicators, entry logic, or risk parameters — the Custom plan ($120) builds it to your exact spec and delivers in 3–5 business days.

Frequently asked questions — MyFundedFutures
Is automation allowed on MyFundedFutures?
Yes — MFFU is one of the few major futures prop firms that explicitly permits automated trading on both the evaluation and the live funded account. You can run a fully automated Pine Script + TradersPost setup on both phases without violating their terms. Always confirm the current MFFU TOS before connecting automation to a funded account.
Does MFFU have a consistency rule?
No. MFFU does not have a percentage-based consistency rule. There is no cap on how much any single day can contribute to your total profit. If your strategy fires a strong run of winners on day one and you hit 60% of the profit target, that's completely fine under MFFU's rules. No single-day limits, no "best day" percentage caps.
Does MFFU have trailing drawdown?
No — MFFU uses static drawdown only. The drawdown floor is set at account opening and never moves, regardless of how much profit you accumulate. This is the most significant structural advantage MFFU has over trailing-drawdown firms like Apex and Topstep. A profitable run does not shrink your remaining cushion.
Is there a minimum number of trading days on MFFU?
No minimum trading days are required. If you hit the profit target in three days without breaching the daily loss limit or the static drawdown, the evaluation is complete. This makes MFFU one of the fastest potential paths to a funded account of any major futures prop firm.
Does the script enforce MFFU's daily loss limit?
The script enforces a configurable daily kill switch — when cumulative session losses reach a set threshold, no new entries fire for the rest of that session. The PDF guide included with every purchase walks through how to set the threshold relative to MFFU's daily limit for each account tier.
What instruments work best for MFFU with a Pine Script?
MES and MNQ for the 50k Starter tier — low margin, tight spreads, and the closest index futures to the NQ and ES setups the scripts are built around. ES and NQ for the 100k and 150k tiers. MFFU's platform (Tradovate or Rithmic) supports all of these natively.
