My experience with Shark Funded has been very disappointing. The firm promotes trader-friendly instant funded accounts, but the actual trading conditions are extremely strict and unclear.
Even when trades were closed in loss within 2 minutes for proper risk management, they were still classified as “scalping violations.” This creates an unfair situation where traders are penalized simply for managing risk and protecting their account.
Many important rules are hidden inside long and complex paragraphs, making them difficult to fully understand before purchasing an account. When support is contacted to clarify what happens if certain rules are broken, clear or direct answers are rarely provided.
Another major concern is that the Instant Account provided is not a real live trading account but a demo environment. Unlike many other prop firms that offer real conditions, this model appears to operate in a way where trader losses benefit the company, while profitable traders face strict rule enforcement that can lead to payout rejection.
Considering that a $5K instant account is sold at a very low price, profitable traders quickly exceed the purchase cost, which raises concerns about how sustainable payouts are handled. The overall rule structure feels designed more to limit withdrawals rather than support consistent traders.
I strongly advise traders to carefully review all terms and conditions before purchasing, as the actual experience may be very different from what is advertised.
