• On passing the challenge, the fee is credited as profit balance on the funded account

The terms then specify 10 calendar days for 1-Step, 2-Step Trailing and 3-Step; 10 business days for Static; 14 calendar days for Ultra and Instant. The latter intervals run from the previous payment. All funded accounts require 15 completed trades per cycle.

Static takes the higher of balance and equity at 00:00 server time and fixes that reference for the day.

• Consistency Mode earns double XP on most milestones
