Elite trades real capital by risk-team invitation; standard Funded accounts use simulated capital.

Core and Instant: every 10 active sessions. Rapid Daily: after one session; Rapid Futures 3D: every 3 sessions. Rapid closes after the fifth payout.

Standard, Apex and Direct: on request at any time once the profit goal is met, with no waiting period (Apex also needs 5 winning days). Daily: once a day. Requests Monday to Friday (UTC). At the 5th payout the risk team reviews the account and may refer the trader to live trading, closing the funded account.

The website advertises processing within 48 hours or a 100% split on that payout. Bank transfer or USDC ERC-20 according to the help center.

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.

Up to 50% of profits per request, before the split. Core/Instant 50K: $1,500/$2,000/$2,500 for payouts 1-2/3-4/5+; 100K: $2,000/$2,500/$3,000. Rapid Daily 50K: $1,000 for the first two, then $1,500; 100K: $1,500/$2,000. Rapid 3D 50K: $2,000; 100K: $2,000 for the first two, then $3,000. After the first payout, new profits of at least 50% of the next requested amount are required.

Per-size cap per payout, before the split. Standard and Daily: balance above the required balance. Apex: 50% of profit held. Direct: profit held. Apex and Direct keep at least $200 above the starting balance.

No published minimum.

Standard, Apex and Direct: $500. Daily: $250/$500/$1,000/$1,500 for $25K/$50K/$100K/$150K.

Identity verification before the first payout. Requesting closes positions and pauses the account until the payout is resolved. Standard: profit goal of $250/$500/$750/$1,000 per payout. Apex from the 2nd payout: $500/$750/$1,000/$1,250. Daily from the 2nd payout: new profit of 50% of the last payout. Direct: $1,500/$3,000/$6,000/$9,000 for the first, then $1,250/$2,500/$3,500/$4,500. Accounts bought from 22 October 2026 have no fee refund.

Per contract per side: dxFeed $0.75 micro / $2 mini; Tradovate $0.80 / $2.88. CME L1 included; other exchanges and L2 cost extra. Tradovate is limited to DLL accounts; evaluations cannot migrate.

Evaluation resets and up to two funded or Instant resets. Help articles exclude promotional accounts from resets, although the Welcome Futures checkout displays a reset price. Confirm before purchasing a Welcome reset.

Discretionary invitation to Elite with real capital and individual limits. The website also advertises a waiting list; automatic scaling is not guaranteed.

EOD trailing: the threshold follows the highest closing value and never decreases. It locks at the initial balance when reached or after the first payout. Subsequent loss room consists of the profits left in the account.

Trailing on end-of-day balance, recalculated at 16:45 New York; never moves down and stops $100 above the starting balance, in evaluation and funded. The first payout request fixes the floor there. Breach measured on equity in real time. Atlas Daily funded uses $2,500 and $3,500 on $100K and $150K.

Core DLL and funded Rapid Daily: the checkout specifies one soft closure and account termination on the second breach. Older Core DLL articles still describe an immediate hard breach.

Lockout, not a breach: reaching it closes positions and locks trading until the 16:45 New York reset. Measured from the balance at the start of the trading day. None on Atlas Direct $25K or with the No Daily Loss Limit add-on. Atlas Daily funded: $500/$1,000/$1,250/$1,800.

Core and Instant: up to 10 funded accounts. Rapid: up to 5. One Welcome account per user. Unlimited evaluations; passed accounts can wait for an activation slot. Futures limits are separate from CFD/crypto limits.

New purchases: 90-day evaluation; Instant accounts have no expiry. No monthly renewal fees for purchases from 22 October 2026 at 18:00. Older accounts retain their renewal terms.

No evaluation deadline.

Core: no minimum evaluation days. Rapid: the help center specifies 3 evaluation days and consistency.

Evaluation: Standard 2 days; Apex and Daily 3 (2 with the 50% Consistency add-on). Funded: no minimum days, except the winning days on Apex.

No Daily Loss Limit: +25% on Standard, +40% on Apex. 50% Consistency on Apex and Daily: +15%, evaluation best day up to 50% and 2 minimum days.

90% on every program. All accounts are simulated.

Standard and Daily: after a payout the balance must stay at the starting balance plus the max loss plus $100. Apex and Direct: at least $200 above the starting balance.

No activation or subscription fee.

Apex funded: 5 winning days per payout of $100/$150/$200/$255 net closed profit for $25K/$50K/$100K/$150K. Other programs: no winning-day requirement.

One-time fee; no subscription.

Only self-developed or transparent systems with full source access and control over their logic. No commercial black-box bots, HFT or arbitrage.

Allowed for security or connectivity, never to conceal identity or bypass restrictions.

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

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

No HFT or tick scalping. Payouts require the 15-second rule: at least half of trades and profits must come from trades exceeding that threshold, as described in payout help.

On funded accounts, a trade held under 3 minutes loses its profit only when that profit is half the max loss or more. Losses remain; it does not close the account.

Position Loss plans aggregate all trades in the same market, including fees, spread and slippage. Limit: 1% in evaluation and 0.5% funded/Instant. Two soft closures; the third breach ends the account. Rapid Futures does not use this limit.

Positions open at 16:45 New York are closed automatically; this is not a breach. No margin-usage rule or Atlas Protector: contract limits cap position size, and funded accounts start at half the limits until the floor locks or the first payout is paid.

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

Allowed on Standard, Apex and Direct, and in every evaluation. Atlas Daily funded: positions opened within 1 minute before or after high-impact news are closed, and profits from trades opened or closed in that window are deducted.

Closure after 8 calendar days without trading. Opening or closing a trade resets the timer; an open position pauses it.

Open a trade at least every 30 days.

Core: 30% funded and Instant, none during evaluation. Rapid: 40% during evaluation; none for funded Rapid Daily. Rapid Futures 3D: 40% per funded cycle. Resets after each payout.

Standard: best day at most 50% of total profit to pass, then 40% of each funded cycle. Apex and Daily: 40% to pass, none when funded. Direct: 20% of each cycle.

Latency arbitrage, price or platform manipulation, spoofing/layering, bug exploitation, copying/external signals, third-party management, account sharing, multiple identities and excessive exposure.

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. All-or-nothing trading: 3 or more trades each making or losing 75% of the max loss that are 20% or more of all futures trades.
