Traders may enter the live-account review pool after payout 5, significant lifetime payouts, exceptional simulated-funded performance or a previous live transition. Selection is always at Finotive Futures' discretion.

Standard, Apex and Direct: first payout after 14 days, then every 14, according to checkout. Atlas Live: every 7 days, according to documentation.

On demand once all requirements are met.

First payout: 24 working hours; subsequent payouts: 48. Working hours: Monday-Friday, 09:00-17:00 BST. Late payment: $500 with that payout and $500 with the next. Giveaway and collaborator accounts excluded.

Payout requests are processed within 24 to 48 hours.

Standard, Apex and Direct: up to 50% of cycle profit and the limit in the corresponding row. Live: first payout capped at $4,000/$6,000/$7,000/$8,000 for $25K/$50K/$100K/$150K; afterwards, no cap beyond available profit.

1-Step Funded

• $25K: $1,000 first payout; $1,500 thereafter
• $50K: $2,000 first payout; $2,500 thereafter
• $100K: $2,500 first payout; $3,000 thereafter
• $150K: $3,000 first payout; $3,500 thereafter

• $150K: $4,000

Standard, Apex and Direct: $100. Live: $1,500/$2,500/$5,000/$7,500 for $25K/$50K/$100K/$150K sizes.

$500 before the 90% reward split.

Approved KYC. Requesting closes positions and pauses the account until payout is resolved. Challenge fee refunded as Atlas Balance with the third consecutive payout, according to the shared FAQ.

All positions must be closed and KYC and compliance checks must be complete before requesting a payout.

Atlas Live after the fourth payout: trailing equity drawdown and Direct contract limits.

Trailing at each day's close, 16:45 New York. On funded Standard, Apex and Direct, stops rising at starting balance; the first payout request locks the floor there. Live: trailing equity without a lock.

• 1-Step: EOD trailing, based on the highest end-of-day balance; it locks at the initial balance once the Profit Buffer is reached.
• Instant: intraday trailing, following the highest balance or open equity.
• Reaching the maximum drawdown is a hard breach.

Atlas Live: 100%. Reached after the fourth paid payout. All programs remain simulated.

Standard: soft limit. Closes positions and locks trading until the 16:45 New York reset; does not close the account unless maximum drawdown is also reached.

Calculated from the end-of-day balance. A breach is soft: positions are closed and trading stops for that day; the account is not failed. The new daily limit on 25K 1-Step evaluations applies only to new purchases; existing accounts retain their original rules.

After withdrawal, balance must remain $100 above starting balance.

Applies only to 1-Step Funded accounts and must remain in the account: $1,000 on $25K, $2,000 on $50K, $3,000 on $100K and $4,500 on $150K. Each payout also requires new profit equal to 1% of the initial balance above the buffer. Instant accounts use a recurring payout milestone instead: $1,450, $3,000, $5,000 and $8,000 respectively.

No evaluation deadline.

No time limit for the 1-Step evaluation. Accounts close after 15 consecutive calendar days without a trade.

Standard evaluation: 2 days; Apex: 1. Funded per cycle: Standard 5; Apex 4; Direct 5; Live 4.

The 1-Step evaluation can be passed in one trading day.

No activation or subscription fee.

No activation fee or recurring subscription.

Standard: +$150 per day. Apex: +$200, except $150K: +$195. Direct and Live: +1% of starting balance per day.

• 1-Step evaluation: none
• 1-Step Funded: 3 per payout cycle
• Instant: 5 per payout cycle

A profitable day requires at least 0.25% of the initial account balance in realised profit.

One-time fee; no subscription.

One-time purchase fee. No subscription or automatic rebilling, and no activation fee after passing.

• 1-Step evaluation: a discounted reset can be purchased within 14 calendar days of a breach.
• 1-Step Funded: up to 2 resets before the first payout, within 14 days of the breach; each costs 5 times the evaluation fee.
• Instant: no standard reset; the same size can be repurchased at a reduced price within 3 calendar days of a breach.

Unlimited evaluation accounts. Total funded allocation across 1-Step and Instant accounts is capped at $1,000,000.

Bots, EAs and personal automated strategies are allowed if they do not exploit latency, feed errors or the simulated environment.

Must not conceal location or identity. Give advance notice of locations inconsistent with registration.

Connections must remain stable and verifiable. VPNs, proxies or location masking are prohibited when they impair identity, location or account-control checks.

Allowed within one account. Prohibited across accounts, brokers or firms.

Hedging within one account is allowed, including mini versus micro positions. Opposing or correlated hedges across separate accounts or prop firms are prohibited.

On funded accounts, profits from trades held under 3 minutes are deducted. Losses remain; the deduction does not close the account.

Microscalping is allowed, but no more than 50% of total profit may come from trades held for less than 30 seconds.

Allowed when used responsibly within contract and drawdown limits. Aggressive exposure may be reviewed as gambling behaviour.

Close all positions before 16:45 New York; holding afterwards closes the account. On funded accounts, 80% margin usage closes positions and deducts their profits. Respect contract limits.

Only between your own Atlas accounts; copying other traders or external accounts is prohibited.

Allowed only between accounts personally owned and controlled by the same trader, including their accounts at other prop firms. Third-party signals, accounts and copy services are prohibited.

Unrestricted during evaluation. On funded accounts, profits from trades opened or closed within 5 minutes before or after high-impact news are deducted. Holding through the entire window is allowed.

Allowed without restrictions during the 1-Step evaluation. On 1-Step Funded and Instant accounts, orders cannot be opened, closed or triggered from 2 minutes before until 2 minutes after high-impact news.

Open a trade at least every 30 days.

15 consecutive calendar days without a trade is a hard breach and permanently closes the account.

Standard: best day at most 50% of profit, according to checkout. Direct and Live: 20%. Apex: no consistency.

No consistency rule during the 1-Step evaluation. At payout, one day may represent at most 40% of cycle profit on 1-Step Funded accounts and 20% on Instant accounts.

Positions cannot be carried through the Friday close into the Sunday reopen.

Latency or tick arbitrage, exploiting prices or bugs, order flooding, hedging across accounts or firms, account sharing and passing services. Multiple locations must not hide who trades. Gambling, martingale and manipulating evaluations are prohibited.

Hedging across accounts or platforms; latency, feed, spread or exchange arbitrage; account or device sharing; coordinated/group trading; copying third parties; spoofing, layering and market or order-queue manipulation; volume inflation or artificial trades; HFT and algorithmic exploitation; non-viable simulated-fill strategies; gambling/account rolling; news straddling; and gap or illiquid-market exploitation.

All open positions are automatically closed at 15:55 CT, five minutes before the daily close.
