No fixed fee published. Any processing or network fee is shown before you confirm; bank and network charges are paid by the trader.

On demand, as soon as the conditions are met.

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.

No guaranteed time: the payout policy neither promises nor estimates one. Every request gets an automatic receipt and every payout a verifiable certificate.

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.

Before the split. One Step 25K/50K/100K/150K: $1,000/$2,000/$2,500/$3,000 on the first payout and $1,500/$2,500/$3,000/$3,500 after. Instant: $1,000/$2,000/$3,000/$4,000 on every payout. The rest rolls into the next one.

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.

$500 before the split. Crypto payouts: at least $100.

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

Every position closed. Funded One Step: balance above the buffer plus 1% of the starting balance, 3 profitable days (+0.25%) and the 40% rule. Instant: a profit milestone before each payout ($1,450, $3,000, $5,000 or $8,000 on 25K, 50K, 100K or 150K), 5 profitable days and the 20% rule.

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.

One Step: after an evaluation breach, a restart within 14 days at the same price. Funded One Step: a reset within 14 days, at most twice and before the first payout. Instant: no reset; a new account at a reduced price is offered for 3 days.

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.

One Step: end-of-day trailing, rising with the closing balance. Instant: intraday trailing on peak equity, open profit included. Both lock once they reach the starting balance. Touching it ends 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.

90% on both plans.

90% on every program. All accounts are simulated.

Soft limit: reaching it closes positions and stops trading until the next session; the account stays open. One Step 25K has none.

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.

$1.5M per person across all CFD and futures accounts.

Funded One Step: a buffer equal to the max loss that stays on the account and is never paid out. Instant has none.

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.

One user per person, with as many accounts as the $1.5M limit allows. Up to 5 accounts per order, with a 10% to 25% bundle discount.

No time limit.

No evaluation deadline.

No minimum in the evaluation: it can be passed in one day.

No EAs or automated trading on futures.

Hiding your location with a VPN, proxy or remote desktop is prohibited and triggers a new identity check. Your own EA on a VPS is allowed if disclosed.

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

Within one account, yes (mini against micro or different contracts). Prohibited across accounts.

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

Yes, but trades under 30 seconds may make at most 50% of profit; until it is back under, no pass or payout.

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.

Allowed when used responsibly within the contract and loss limits; aggressive sequences are reviewed.

A cap on contracts open at once; exceeding it once is a warning, the second time goes to review.

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 futures accounts or from your own master account. Copying others or signals is prohibited.

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

Free during the One Step evaluation. Funded and on Instant, no trade may be opened or closed 2 minutes either side of red USD news: profit from those trades is removed. Two warnings; the third goes to review.

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.

15 days without trading deactivates the account; an open position does not count.

Open a trade at least every 30 days.

No day may exceed 40% of the cycle's profit on funded One Step (none in the evaluation) or 20% on Instant. Until met, the payout waits.

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.

Hedging across accounts, latency or cross-market arbitrage, account or device sharing, coordinated trading, copying others, market or order-queue manipulation, volume inflation, filler trades to count days, HFT, strategies that cannot work in a live market, gambling and account rolling, straddling tier-1 news and gap trading.

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.

Everything is closed at 3:55 PM Chicago time every session; it is not a breach.
