$250 minimum per payout request.
KYC, agreement and interview before the first payout; account review for every request and further checks when required. After a payout the loss floor becomes the starting balance: retain enough profit to avoid touching it. Consistency resets even after a partial payout.
Failed challenges can be repurchased at any time. Funded accounts cannot be reset.
Available on current plans. See challenges for reset price.
Direct Account: funded access without any evaluation phase.
1-Step Prime Challenge: single-phase evaluation with a profit target and consistency requirement.
Live program: whenever accumulated profit reaches 100% of the reference balance, the account grows by 10%. Payouts count toward profit and eligibility is reviewed on payout requests. The Forex scaling ladder does not automatically apply to Futures sim funded.
Evaluation and sim funded: trails the highest end-of-day balance, not intraday unrealized peaks. It only rises and locks at the starting balance after earning the drawdown distance. A payout fixes the floor at the starting balance even if it had not locked yet. Touching it with balance or equity closes the account.
Two drawdown types available, both Trailing Maximum Drawdown:
Intraday TMD
Calculated in real time from unrealized profits during the session.
End of Day TMD
Calculated from realized profits at end of day (16:00 CT close). Follows account growth until frozen at the initial balance.
Funded Sim drawdown type matches the evaluation type purchased.
Each product split is listed in its challenge. The live program has its own split and starting-balance release requirements.
Quick Pay Funded Sim
- 80% trader / 20% TradeDay above $4,000 gross profit
- 50% trader / 50% TradeDay below $4,000 gross profit
- Split evaluated per account
Fast Pass Funded Sim
- 80% trader / 20% TradeDay
Funded Live

Prime evaluation and sim funded: no daily cap. Direct: based on the previous closing balance; reaching it closes positions and pauses trading until the next day, without terminating the account for that isolated event. Maximum-loss breaches still terminate the account.
Combined sim funded and Direct: up to USD 500,000 or five accounts, whichever comes first. Combined Forex and Futures: USD 800,000. One live account may additionally be held.
Up to 10 Evaluation accounts and 5 Funded Sim accounts simultaneously per trader. Up to 5 active Funded Live accounts per trader. Multiple Funded Sim accounts allowed. Single-member US LLC allowed. Multi-member LLC, S-corps and C-corps not allowed.
After a payout the balance must stay above the starting balance, which becomes the loss floor. Withdrawing all profit would leave no room above that limit.
At most five sim funded or Direct accounts, subject to total allocation; one additional live account. Unlimited evaluation purchases.
Unlimited on all plans.
