How funded trading really works. Live, in 40 minutes.
One small cohort. We open three real prop-firm rulebooks on screen, walk through one failed challenge journal trade by trade, and answer your specific situation out loud at the end.

Cohort
Cap 8 traders · 5 open
Live screen-share · no recording sold separately · 7-day refund · Educational only
Live · not a course library
Forty minutes that could not be a video.
Every other funded-trading product is a library you scroll through alone. This is one live session. We screen-share three real prop firms' rulebooks, mark every trap rule out loud, dissect a real failed challenge, and stop to answer the one specific question you typed in the chat.
Cohort is capped at 8 on purpose — small enough that every attendee gets time on the mic, large enough that everyone hears questions they would never have thought to ask. Run once each cohort. New cohort every two weeks.
Minute by minute
The 40-minute agenda.
No filler. No throat-clearing. The clock starts at zero, ends at forty.
Minute
0–5
Framing — what funded trading actually is
Sixty seconds on what a prop firm is, why they exist, and what you are really being sold. We set the ground rules for the cohort and how questions work.
Minute
5–18
Three rulebooks open on screen
We side-by-side a futures firm, a forex firm, and an instant-funding firm. Drawdown style, news rules, consistency, scaling — every trap rule called out from the actual rulebook PDF, on screen, in plain English.
Minute
18–28
A real failed challenge dissected
One anonymized journal. Trade by trade. We mark which decision tested which rule and the exact bar that was crossed. No judgment — most challenges fail for the same two or three patterns.
Minute
28–32
The hidden costs in real numbers
Calculator on screen. Activation fee. Platform and data feeds. Per-round-turn commission. Reset psychology. We stack them against the headline challenge fee and you see what the real monthly number looks like.
Minute
32–40
Live Q&A — your specific situation
Eight minutes of attendee questions answered out loud. With a cohort cap of 8, every attendee gets time on the mic. The questions you hear other people ask are usually the ones you needed answered.
What we cover live
The hidden costs nobody quotes you.
Inside the live session we open a calculator on screen and stack the real monthly costs against the headline challenge fee. These are the four numbers most buyers don't see until after they've paid.
Activation & PA fees
Most futures firms charge $85–$150 to convert a passed challenge into a Performance Account. It is not in the headline price.
REAL COST · $85–$150
Platform & data feeds
CME futures data is $10–$30/month per exchange. Rithmic or NinjaTrader Live add another $30–$100. None of this is bundled.
REAL COST · $40–$130/mo
Round-turn commissions
A futures firm passes its broker commissions through to you — $3–$5 per round-turn on Micros and Minis. Scalpers pay this hundreds of times a month.
REAL COST · $3–$5 per RT
Reset psychology
A $99 reset fee feels small after losing a $399 challenge. Buyers who reset twice in a month effectively pay full price three times — and the firm knows it.
REAL COST · $99 × n
“Forty minutes is exactly the length of every challenge fee I should have asked questions about first.”

By minute 40
What you'll walk out knowing.
01 · Vocabulary
Read any rulebook in five minutes
You leave able to open any prop-firm rulebook and spot the trap rules — drawdown style, consistency, news, soft breach — without a glossary.
02 · Math
Know what funded trading really costs
Headline challenge fee plus activation, platform, data, commission, and reset. You see the real monthly number for the firms you are considering.
03 · Diagnosis
See why most challenges fail
Watching one journal walked trade by trade tells you more than reading ten guides. You spot the pattern in your own past attempts.
04 · Shortlist
Know which firms to look at first
You leave with a working shortlist of firms whose rules suit your style, and the one or two whose rules will quietly fail you.
05 · Frameworks
A reset / walk decision rule
A short framework for the moment you have to decide whether to reset, switch firm, or walk for a week. So you stop deciding it on tilt.
06 · Reality
An honest read on whether to do it
By minute forty you know whether funded trading is a fit for the way you actually trade. Sometimes the most useful answer is no.
What this is. And what it isn't.

Honest disclosure
What you get now vs after firm deals.
We have not signed affiliate or referral agreements with any prop firm. The session is paid for by you, not by the firms we cover.
Right now
Independent · no kickbacks
- Every firm covered live is read from its own published rulebook and payout history.
- Zero affiliate links. We do not earn anything when you buy a challenge after.
- No firm has paid for placement, mention, or rating in the cohort.
- No discount codes — those almost always carry referral kickbacks.
If we sign deals later
Disclosed, on screen
- Any firm partnership will be called out by name on the first slide of the session.
- Existing attendees get the disclosure by email before the next cohort runs.
- Affiliate revenue, if any, will be summed and posted on a public page.
- A firm partnership never moves a rating up. Negative live calls stay negative.

Education only. Not financial advice.
Education, not financial or investment advice
Kerevo Inc. is not a registered investment advisor, dealer, broker, securities commission registrant, or financial planner in Canada or any other jurisdiction. The funded trading session is an educational live presentation. Nothing in it is a recommendation to buy, sell, hold, or trade any security, derivative, currency, futures contract, or crypto-asset, or to enter into a relationship with any prop firm.
Trading carries real risk of loss
Trading with prop firms involves substantial risk. Most retail traders lose all or part of their challenge fees and never receive a payout. Examples and rule descriptions discussed in the cohort do not predict future outcomes. You may lose 100% of any fee paid to a prop firm and any time spent attempting to pass a challenge.
Independent — no firm relationships
As of the date of this page, Kerevo has no affiliate, referral, paid-promotion, or revenue-share relationship with any prop firm covered in the live session. If that ever changes, the relationship will be disclosed verbally on the first slide of the cohort, on this page, and by email to existing attendees.
No guarantee of passing or payout
Attending the cohort does not increase the probability that you will pass any challenge or receive any payout. Every example, framework, or case study is illustrative. Each prop firm sets and changes its own rules; we cannot and do not warrant that information remains accurate after the moment of broadcast.
Refund and reschedule policy
You may request a full refund up to 24 hours before your cohort begins, for any reason, by replying to your receipt email. After that point, you may either attend or transfer your seat to a future cohort once at no extra cost — but a refund is no longer available because the seat is held against the cap.
Adults only · Canadian residency note
The cohort is intended for individuals 18 years of age or older. Prop trading and the tax treatment of payouts vary by jurisdiction. Canadian readers should note that the CRA generally treats prop-firm payouts as business income, not capital gains; consult a qualified Canadian tax professional for personalised advice.
Live session · no separate recording sold
The cohort is delivered live. We do not currently sell a recording. The 7-day post-session email window is for clarifying questions about what was covered live; it is not a substitute for personalised advice.
No anti-fraud or AML representations
Kerevo does not vouch for any prop firm's solvency, AML/KYC compliance, or willingness to honour payouts. Some prop firms have ceased operations, frozen accounts, or been the subject of regulatory action. You assume all counterparty risk when paying any firm.
Reserving a seat constitutes acknowledgment of the above. The full disclaimers, terms, and privacy policy apply.
