Vanta Trading Review

Two products. Classic is a one-step evaluation in $5,000, $10,000, $25,000, $50,000 and $100,000 sizes. Instant Funded is a $25,000, $50,000 or $100,000 account with no evaluation, limited to 50 slots across all sizes for now. Pro accounts of up to $1,000,000 in demo capital are not sold: Classic accounts are promoted into them, and Instant Funded accounts can reach them through an optional Pro challenge.

One fee, paid once, set by account size, reward split and daily loss limit. At Vanta's default (100/0 split, 3% daily limit) it is $67, $127, $303, $577 and $1,099 for $5K to $100K. Choosing 60/40 instead lowers that to $33, $64, $151, $288 and $549. The 5% daily limit costs about 18% more: $79 to $1,299 at 100/0. Size and split cannot be changed after purchase.

Reach 10% profit in one step. Your equity, including open trades, may never fall more than 5% below the starting balance, or more than 3% or 5% (chosen at purchase) below the start-of-day balance on the UTC day. Breaching either ends the account. There is no time limit, no minimum number of trading days and no consistency rule; you must place at least one trade every 60 days.

A scaled account activates at your full account size with the same two loss limits and buying power, no profit target and no time limit. Rewards are paid weekly from the day you pass, at your split. Breaching a limit closes the account, and you can start a new evaluation at any time.

On Classic you choose it at purchase: 60/40, 70/30, 80/20, 90/10 or 100/0, with 100/0 (you keep everything) as the default. Lower splits cost less. Your split stays the same if you are promoted to Pro. Instant Funded pays a fixed 80/20.

Weekly, by bank transfer in USD (through Stripe) or in USDC on-chain. There is no minimum, payout allowance or extraction limit. Rewards are your eligible profit net of earlier losses and payouts, and a payout never reduces your account equity or moves a loss limit. Every reward is listed on Vanta's public payout ledger, and USDC payments link to their on-chain transaction.

Not to buy or trade an evaluation. Identity verification through Stripe is required when your scaled account is activated, before any reward is paid, and Vanta may ask for verification at any time for compliance or anti-fraud reasons. You must be at least 18.

Every Classic size can be promoted, at no cost and without applying. Reach 10% profit on your scaled account and you move to Grow on 3 times your account; or, after at least 60 days, stay more than 3% up with a Calmar ratio of 1.5 or more and no day over 50% of your return, and you move up on 5 times (10 times with a Calmar of 2.0). Grow runs at least 90 days with a 6% target, a 1.75 Calmar ratio, a 5% daily and an 8% end-of-day trailing loss limit, and pays your weekly rewards doubled. Completing it gives a Pro account of up to $1,000,000 in demo capital. Vanta's Terms describe promotion as discretionary.

You register for a $25,000, $50,000 or $100,000 account with no evaluation and an 80/20 split. It has a 3% daily loss limit below start-of-day equity and a trailing loss limit of 5% or 8% below the end-of-day equity high, chosen at registration; breaching either ends the account. Rewards are paid weekly from registration. Regular prices are $750, $1,500 and $2,999 with the 5% limit, or $1,000, $2,000 and $3,999 with 8%. Instant Funded accounts are not promoted automatically.

An option chosen at registration, for $50 to $1,600 more depending on size and limit. You pick a Pro size of 2.5, 5 or 10 times your account (up to $1,000,000) and trade under the Grow rules: at least 90 days, a 6% target, a 1.75 Calmar ratio and a 20% best-day limit. Pass and the account becomes a Pro account with an 8% trailing and a 5% daily loss limit, with rewards on the Pro size.

Every Classic account trades all markets from one balance: 34 crypto pairs and 3 index futures on Hyperliquid perpetuals, 28 forex pairs, 6 commodities (gold, silver, copper, platinum, WTI crude and natural gas), US stocks and 36 ETFs as spot, and 20 equity perpetuals. Crypto trades 24/7; other markets follow their normal hours. Pro trades a shorter, liquidity-reviewed list.

Buying power is gross exposure relative to balance, checked per pair, per asset class and across the portfolio, and longs and shorts do not offset. On Classic the class limits are crypto 10×, forex 30×, indices 8×, commodities 6× and equities 4×, with 40× across the portfolio; BTC and ETH are capped at 7× and single stocks at 2×. Pro raises these to 12×, 40×, 10×, 8×, 6× and 50×.

Transaction fees are 0.03% on crypto, 0.01% on equities, 0.005% on commodities and nothing on indices or forex. Perpetuals carry Hyperliquid's spreads, slippage and funding; forex positions pay a 3% annual swap charged daily, short stock positions a 3% annual borrow fee, and borrowed cash for equities 6.6% a year.

Yes. News trading, overnight and weekend holding, manual and algorithmic trading, EAs, bots and AI are all allowed on Classic, as long as the strategy is your own, and there is an API for automated trading. Third-party signals or copy-trading services are prohibited and mean immediate disqualification.

Copying third-party signals or trades, mirroring or opposing positions across your own accounts, market manipulation such as wash trading or spoofing, collusion, exploiting bugs or platform errors, sharing accounts, and using VPNs or proxies to get around location limits. You may hold up to three accounts at once: one $50K or $100K Classic, one $5K to $25K Classic and one Instant Funded, under one profile and email.

The Vanta Trading Desk, Vanta's own platform, in the browser on desktop or phone, with simulated execution priced from Hyperliquid, Databento and Massive. An API is available for algorithmic trading. MetaTrader 5 is listed as coming soon.

Yes, in full, if you have not placed a trade: contact support@vantatrading.io. Once you have traded the fee is generally not refundable, though Vanta may review technical issues or billing errors, and EU and UK consumers keep their statutory withdrawal rights. The fee is not refunded when you pass. You can pay by card or bank transfer through Stripe, or in crypto through NowPayments.

Taoshi VT Services, a Cayman Islands company in George Town, Grand Cayman, operates it; Taoshi, Inc. builds it on Vanta Network, a Bittensor network whose scoring code is open source. The founder and CEO is Arrash Yasavolian, who also founded Taoshi. Vanta says it earns money by copy trading its best traders with live capital rather than from fees. Its first reward on the public ledger was paid on 7 April 2026.
