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.

Transition at ETF discretion, including early conversion. Review at 5 payouts, 50 ATDs or $25,000 combined. Sim accounts close; assigned live capital differs from nominal sim balances. Eligible unpaid sim profits enter the Vault with conditional releases. Failure to accept conversion within 3 business days results in a partial payment and a 2-year ban. Rithmic-compatible platforms; Tradovate and NinjaTrader are unavailable in live.

• Raid: once per CME session; after a payout, wait for the next session (6 PM ET).
• Conquest: after 5 days at the minimum daily profit ($200, $250, $300 and $350 by size) and total profit of at least 5 times that minimum.
• Ascension: one bounty each completed cycle.

Sim-funded: processed Mondays and Wednesdays after meeting each cycle's ATDs. LIVE ELITE: requests on business days; Vault releases follow a separate schedule.

Paid as soon as you confirm an eligible request. It can be held while your latest fills are checked (about 15 minutes) or while the account is under review.

Approval of eligible rewards or initiation of a LIVE ELITE transition within 48 business hours. Transfer initiation and bank receipt are not guaranteed. $1,000 compensation if ETF misses the deadline; ETF chooses the compensation method. Completed KYC and Rise verification and accounts in good standing required. Excludes weekends, US bank or federal holidays, system downtime and third-party delays.

• Raid Light Armor: $1,000, $1,500, $2,000 and $2,500 per request (25K to 150K).
• Raid Plated: $10,000 per request on every size.
• Conquest: up to 50% of profit, capped at $1,000, $1,500, $2,000 and $2,500 on Light Armor and $2,500, $5,000, $7,500 and $10,000 on Plated.

• KYC with Sumsub (ID and facial check) before the first payout.

• Raid: the buffer must stay intact after each payout.
• Light Armor: you can only withdraw profit made since the last payout. Plated: the same, but only after a payout taken while profit was above the cap.

KYC and Rise onboarding with matching personal details. Country must be supported by payment providers and the live broker. Guam, Puerto Rico and US Virgin Islands are unsupported. Active account and approved audit; wait for approval before resuming trading. Minimum age: 18 or the local age of majority, whichever is higher. Complete KYC within 5 days of submitting documents; ETF may deny rewards if this is not met. An audio or video interview of up to 60 minutes may be required. In sim, withdraw the cycle maximum and meet its ATDs to advance to the next cycle; ATDs reset. Dashboard payout requirements prevail in a conflict.

Per contract, per side: ES/NQ/YM $2.04; MES $0.56; MNQ $0.51; CL $2.26; MCL $0.76; GC $2.31; MGC $0.76; BTC $6.76; MBT $2.76; ETH $5.76; MET $0.46. Other rates depend on the contract. LIVE ELITE: minis $2 and micros $0.62, plus exchange fees.

Up to 3 resets per Trial account, bought manually. They restore the starting balance and erase the account history. Non-refundable.

Standard evaluations: manual reset or automatic reset on renewal of a failed account. Fast Track: no evaluation reset. Sim-funded and DTF: up to 10 resets per account. LIVE ELITE: no resets.

PLAT End-of-Day Drawdown boost: a Trial bought with it trails the highest end-of-day balance instead of intraday equity. Its price is not public.

One Day to Pass, TradeShield, PriceSlash and Double Down Deal (3D), subject to eligibility. Fast Track is excluded from One Day to Pass and 3D. PriceSlash: a 90% coupon for another evaluation of the same type after passing and activation; redeem within 90 days, with the discount retained on renewals. 3D: prepaid monthly activation; a 3-month option for the price of 2, with benefits forfeited on cancellation. Depending on the add-on: monthly billing while the account remains active, without separate cancellation, or a one-time charge until account failure.

DTF: direct access to sim-funded, without an evaluation.

LIVE ELITE: capital adjustments at the risk team's discretion.

Intraday trailing: it follows the highest equity, unrealized profit included. On the Trial it locks at the profit target. Once funded it locks at the starting balance when profit reaches the buffer, which equals the drawdown. Losses and payouts reduce it dollar for dollar; at zero the account fails.

1 Step: intraday trailing, including open profit. EOD, Diamond Hands, Fast Track EOD and DTF 10K/50K: trailing at session close on realized profit. Static, Fast Track Static and DTF 100K: fixed floor. Sim-funded trailing locks at the safety net, with a floor at starting balance + $100; the Static floor stays unchanged.

80% on Raid and Conquest. Ascension pays fixed 100% bounties.

The sim-account split is a maximum, subject to approval and payout limits. LIVE ELITE: 80% to the trader.

No daily loss limit.

EOD and Diamond Hands: daily limit with a hard breach; TradeShield can turn it into a daily lockout. In sim-funded it stops applying after reaching the safety net. Other plans have no base daily limit.

Up to 5 active accounts at once, Trial or funded: $750,000 with five 150K accounts.

Raid only: the buffer equals the account drawdown and only profit above it can be withdrawn. Conquest has no buffer.

Non-withdrawable safety net: account drawdown + $100 in realized profit. Funded terms: reach it within 45 calendar days. One-time payment, including DTF: 25 days; one 3-day cure period if it is not reached or is later lost. It must be maintained; failure closes the account without a refund.

5 active accounts at once and no more than 20 new funded accounts in any 30 days.

Current evaluations: up to 5 active Elite Sim-Funded accounts. DTF: a separate limit of 5 active accounts per trader. Fast Track EOD: 1 per the specific guide, although the store shows 5. One registration per trader and one trader per household.

LIVE ELITE: merge or split accounts with approval.

No deadline, but you must trade at least once every 28 days.

Standard evaluation: no maximum deadline while the subscription remains active. Fast Track: 10 calendar days.

• Trial: 3 days on Light Armor and 5 on Plated.
• Ascension: 5 days per cycle, not necessarily in a row.

Standard evaluation: 5 days; One Day to Pass reduces this to 1. Fast Track: 3 days. DTF: no evaluation. Sunday and Monday count as one day.

No activation fee on purchased accounts. Free accounts (100% code, gift or giveaway) may pay a one-time activation when moving to funded: $49 on Light Armor and $99 on Plated.

Rithmic: an additional $45/month per active account, also during evaluation. Professional data: $128 per exchange, subject to change. Non-professional level 1 data included; level 2 and optional platform licenses are extra. LIVE ELITE: $197/month per exchange and first account; each additional account, $197/month.

2 points per dollar on eligible evaluation purchases and evaluation resets. DTF and funded resets excluded.

• Conquest: 5 days at the minimum daily profit for its size.
• Raid and Ascension: none.

Standard sim and Fast Track: 8 ATDs for the first cycle and 10 thereafter. Standard purchases from 2 October 2026 at 2:00 PM Pacific Time: each ATD requires $250 and at least 30% of the best day; Static 10K/25K, $125. DTF per cycle: 10K, 5 ATDs with $150 and 50% of the best day; 50K, 15 ATDs with $600 and 62%; 100K, 20 ATDs with $500 and 50%. Fast Track has separate consistency criteria; its guide does not specify a daily dollar minimum.

Evaluation and sim-funded: fixed product limits. LIVE ELITE: contract limits reviewed based on performance; first review after 20 trading days.

One-time fee per account, no subscription or rebills. You pick the platform at checkout.

Includes DCA, adding to losing positions or increasing exposure after losses in identical or related instruments.

One genuine trade every 7 days per account; an approved break is available once per quarter. Log in at least every 30 days. Scratch trades and prolonged lack of progress can lead to closure and forfeited payouts.

40% on the Trial only: the best day cannot exceed 40% of profit. You need the target or the best day divided by 0.4, whichever is higher. None once funded.

Fast Track: best day cannot exceed 40% of total profit in evaluation or 30% for payouts. Other plans use the ATD qualifying rule rather than that total-profit cap.
