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

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

On demand, as soon as the conditions are met.

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

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

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.

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.

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.

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

No published minimum.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

90% on both plans.

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

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.

$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.

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.

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.

No time limit.

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 minimum in the evaluation: it can be passed in one day.

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

No activation fee.

Before each payout: 3 days at +0.25% of the starting balance on funded One Step and 5 on Instant. The evaluation needs none.

One-off fee. Includes 30 days of market data; then $35 per 30 days ($540 a month for professional subscribers).

No EAs or automated trading on futures.

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

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.

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

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

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

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.

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.

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.

Only between your own futures accounts or from your own master account. Copying others or signals 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.

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

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

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.

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.

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

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