A prop firm evaluation, sold as a limited drop.
OrionFunded has launched Orion Labs, a new line of experimental funding programs distributed as limited editions rather than standing products. The first release, Experiment 001, offers a $100,000 simulated evaluation account for €99.
Structurally, it's a single-phase MetaTrader 5 evaluation with a 5% profit target, a 1% daily loss limit and a 3% trailing drawdown, with no consistency rule, no minimum trading days and no activation fees. Passing unlocks an 85% reward split, and both the evaluation and the funded phase run for up to six months.
Payouts every day, if the profit is there.
| Term | Detail |
|---|---|
| Profit target | 5%, single phase |
| Daily loss limit | 1% |
| Trailing drawdown | 3% |
| Reward split | 85% |
| Withdrawal frequency | Daily, requires 3% profit per request, paid in fixed $1,000 increments |
| Account cap per user | 5 accounts, $500,000 total simulated allocation |
Overnight and weekend positions are permitted, and a 3% buffer must remain in the account at all times.
News trading is allowed, but the profit might not be kept.
OrionFunded permits trading during high-impact news events on Experiment 001. But profits generated specifically during those windows may be deducted once the account reaches the funded phase, a soft penalty applied after the fact rather than an outright ban during evaluation.
Scarcity marketing meets an evaluation product.
Experiment 001 is available for 14 calendar days or until it sells out, whichever comes first, with real-time availability tracking so buyers can watch the stock count drop. That's a retail sneaker-drop mechanic applied to a funded-account product, a genuinely unusual choice for an industry that mostly sells on an always-available basis.
The scarcity framing and the deferred news-trading penalty point in the same direction: OrionFunded is testing a product that looks generous on the headline terms while keeping specific levers, supply and after-the-fact profit deductions, in its own hands. That's a reasonable way to pilot a new format cautiously, but it also means the terms that matter most aren't all visible in the marketing copy.
Questions, answered.
It's the first release under OrionFunded's new Orion Labs line: a single-phase, €99 evaluation for a $100,000 simulated MetaTrader 5 account, with a 5% profit target, no consistency rule, no minimum trading days and no activation fees.
Trading during high-impact news is allowed, but profits generated during those windows may be deducted once the account reaches the funded phase.
No. It's distributed as a limited drop for 14 days or until sold out, whichever comes first, with a maximum of five accounts per user. Once it sells out, no further Experiment 001 accounts will be issued, though existing accounts keep their original terms.
