Live Account

After the three Ascension cycles you move to a Live account with Midgard's real capital, starting at $1,000 to $4,000 by size. Minimum balance: 30% of the highest end-of-day balance, which only rises; if equity touches it, the account is liquidated. No targets or payout caps. It requires extra verification (proof of address, phone and tax ID) and the trader pays their own market data.
