Vanguard is an instant funding model, meaning there is no evaluation phase.
You receive a funded account immediately and can begin trading right away.
However, this model introduces stricter control through:
A maximum risk per trade
Lower drawdown limits
A required minimum profitability threshold

How It Works
Unlike evaluation models:
You do not need to pass a challenge
You are funded immediately
You must follow strict risk and consistency rules to qualify for payouts
Example
A trader starts with a 100K account:
Max risk per trade = 2,000
Daily drawdown = 3,000
Trailing drawdown = 5,000
They begin trading immediately under these constraints.
Key Notes
There is no passing stage
Performance is judged directly in the funded environment
Risk management is critical from day one
