Prop firm challenges have become the go-to route for ambitious traders who want to access larger capital without risking their own savings. Among these firms, Fixyfy Accreditation has emerged as a respected platform for evaluating traders based on their discipline, skill, and ability to follow strict rules.


At ForexFactory, we specialize in guiding traders through these rigorous evaluations with proven strategies and disciplined risk management. Recently, our team successfully cleared a Fixyfy Accreditation prop firm account for Axel Chicoyneau De, turning his challenge into a success story.


This article will walk you through the entire journey — from receiving Axel’s account, to passing both stages of the Fixyfy challenge, and finally celebrating the moment he received his official certificate.


The Starting Point: Account Assignment


On 27th May 2025, trader Axel Chicoyneau De handed over his Fixyfy Accreditation account to ForexFactory. Like many determined traders, Axel’s goal was clear — to pass the Fixyfy 2-stage evaluation and gain access to a funded account.


The Fixyfy Accreditation program is built around three main phases:



  1. Stage 1 (Challenge) – Achieve a defined profit target while respecting maximum drawdown and daily loss rules.

  2. Stage 2 (Evaluation) – Prove consistency with a lower target but under the same strict trading objectives.

  3. Certification & Funding – Successful traders receive their certificate and unlock access to professional trading capital.


Stage 1: The Challenge Phase


The first stage of the Fixyfy Accreditation process is designed to test both skill and discipline. Unlike casual trading, this challenge is about meeting profit targets without breaking a single rule.


Our Approach for Stage 1:



  • Instruments Traded: Major currency pairs (EURUSD, GBPUSD) along with gold (XAUUSD) for volatility-driven opportunities.

  • Risk Management: Kept individual trade risk under 1% and strictly monitored daily loss.

  • Strategy: Blended short-term scalping during high-volume sessions with swing trades for stable growth.

  • Discipline: Avoided overtrading, focusing only on high-probability setups.


This calculated approach allowed ForexFactory to successfully complete Stage 1, proving that the account could grow steadily without rule violations.


Stage 2: The Evaluation Phase


After passing the challenge phase, the Evaluation phase began. While the profit target here is smaller, it is arguably the most critical part of the process, as it emphasizes consistency and professional trading behavior.


Our Plan for Stage 2:



  • Trading Frequency: Reduced compared to Stage 1, with an emphasis on quality over quantity.

  • Lot Sizing: Adjusted to ensure minimal risk exposure.

  • Market Conditions: Late May and early June 2025 presented volatility with U.S. economic data releases. We adapted by lowering lot sizes and carefully managing exposure.

  • Consistency Over Aggression: Every decision was made with the long-term stability of the account in mind.


By maintaining steady performance and never breaching rules, ForexFactory cleared the Evaluation phase efficiently.


On 10th June 2025, Axel’s Fixyfy Accreditation account was officially certified.


Certificate Achievement


The defining moment came when Axel Chicoyneau De received his official Fixyfy Accreditation certificate on 10th June 2025.


This milestone symbolizes much more than just completing a challenge. It represents:



  • Access to professional funded trading capital.

  • Validation of skill, patience, and discipline.

  • A significant step forward in Axel’s trading career.


For Axel, this certificate was a breakthrough. For ForexFactory, it was further proof of our structured trading approach and ability to deliver consistent results.

Axel’s success story highlights several lessons valuable to all traders preparing for prop firm challenges:



  1. Discipline Wins – Passing a prop firm challenge isn’t about aggressive profits; it’s about respecting every rule.

  2. Risk Management is Key – Limiting losses ensured survival through volatile sessions.

  3. Patience Over Impulsiveness – Waiting for the right setups was more valuable than constant trading.

  4. Adaptability Matters – Adjusting strategies to changing market conditions kept performance steady.
