Live Hyperliquid order book and market data

Full refund within 14 days of purchase if no trade has been placed. No refund after trading, after 14 days or after a breach. Duplicate or mistaken charges are refunded.

Challenge accounts, including Thunderbolt and Phoenix, qualify for a bonus equal to 200% of the entry fee after the third fully approved payout. It does not apply to Vanguard Instant Funding.

Bank transfer: $19.90 + 2.49%. Cryptocurrency: $19.90 + 30%. Returned payouts: $30 reprocessing fee.

One request per day, from the first funded day. No payout windows or minimum days. The previous request must be paid before a new one.

Payouts are available on demand when all requirements are met. Thunderbolt and Phoenix have no profitable-day minimum. Vanguard requires 6 qualifying days with at least 0.5% realized profit each. The counter resets after every payout.

No guarantee. Payouts need staff approval and are sent through Rise, usually within 24 hours.

Perps trade 24/7. Positions can stay open over the weekend.

All available profit, without going below the floor. The help center sets $10,000 gross per user per calendar month across all funded evaluation accounts; the website and the TruTik builder say no cap. After each payout, retained profit becomes a permanent buffer: only new profit above the new balance can be withdrawn later.

Perpetuals use the same progressive payout-cap ladder as CFD accounts. The cap increases with each fully approved payout and is removed from payout #8 onward. Profit above the applicable cap is forfeited at the end of the segment.

$100 gross per request ($80 to you at 80%). All trades and orders closed first. Rise verifies identity before the first payout.

$45 after applying the selected profit split.

At least 1% realized profit since account start or the previous payout; all positions closed; drawdown compliance; completed KYC and signed Trader Agreement.

No swaps. Open positions pay or receive the market's periodic funding rate, which affects balance and drawdown.

Resets may be offered after a rule violation. A violation-related reset permanently caps future payouts on that account at 50% of the approved amount.

Eligible funded accounts can scale by 35% every four consecutive months, up to $4,000,000, after achieving 15% cumulative growth, at least two payouts and a profitable final cycle.

Static, chosen at purchase, measured on equity including open positions. Touching the floor closes the account. On the funded account, the floor moves up to the starting balance for good after the first payout; TruTik says an accepted request already raises it, even if later rejected.

80% included. 90% with the add-on, only at checkout; it carries over to the funded account.
