Prime Program requires Risk approval: eligible after 5 payouts on one account (the SIM account maximum), 10 across accounts, or 20% profit on one account. Only accounts with at least one payout move to Live. Choose Live or a cash-out of 50% of MLL per eligible account within 24 hours; no answer means Live. SIM accounts close and evaluations pause. Cash-out or a Live breach: 21 days without new purchases or resuming evaluations. Live starts at $0 with real capital, EOD drawdown, 80% split, daily payouts and no consistency rule. One Live trader per household; other household members cannot hold SIM Funded accounts.

Per request: 25K $1,000; 50K $2,000; 100K $3,000; 150K $4,000.

• BrightPlus: also limited to the balance above the buffer.
• BrightCore: the lowest of the size cap, 50% of current profit, and balance minus (starting balance + $100). The 2x addon doubles only the size cap.

At least 18 or the higher local age of majority. Sumsub KYC and a signed contract before SIM Funded activation, within 24 hours of completing both. One profile per person. The minimum trade duration rule must be met in each payout cycle. USDC on ERC-20 or bank transfer.

Per-contract margins set by underlying instrument. Position size capped per account size.

Per contract, per side, USD, all fees included: ES/NQ/RTY/YM 2.88; MES/MNQ/M2K/MYM 0.95; NKD/ZC/ZL/ZW 3.65; 6A/6B/6C/6E/6J/6N/6S/NG 3.10; M6A/M6B/M6E 0.84; CL 3.00; MCL 1.20; QM 2.70; QG 2.00; GC/SI/HG/PL 3.15; MGC 1.30; HE/LE 3.60; ZS/ZM 3.63. Round trip: twice these rates.

Optional at purchase, with additive surcharges on the base price: 100% Profit Split +20%; 2x Payout Cap +40%; BrightCore only, 3 Day Payout Cycle +20%. Targets, drawdown and contracts do not change.

Scaling unlocked through the Loyalty Program (5 tiers: Starter, Rising Star, Pro, VIP, Legend). Increments depend on tier. Applies to all account types.

• Futures Fast: $1,000 (25K) / $2,000 (50K) / $2,500 (100K), trailing
• Futures Fast Pro: $2,000 EOD trailing (50K)
• Futures Instant: 5% EOD trailing

• BrightPlus: intraday trailing on peak equity, including open profit. In SIM it locks at starting balance + $100 once equity reaches the buffer.
• BrightCore: trailing on the highest closing balance, updated between 4:45 and 5:59 PM ET. In SIM it locks at starting balance + $100 on the first approved payout, even if previously higher.
  No lock during evaluation. Touching the floor with live equity breaches the account at any time.

All futures products: 80%

The split applies to each requested amount; the full request is deducted from the account balance.

• Futures Fast: none
• Futures Fast Pro: $1,000 (50K)
• Futures Instant: 3% from highest day equity

No separate daily loss limit.

$300,000 combined across all Master Accounts and Instant Models (Forex + Crypto + Futures shared cap). No allocation limit during Challenge phase.

No mandatory buffer. Instead, when you request a payout your maximum trailing drawdown locks at your starting balance.

BrightPlus: starting balance + MLL + $100, retained after every payout. Only closed profit counts. Falling below pauses payouts without breaching the account. BrightCore has no such buffer.

No time limit on any futures account.

No time limit, subject to inactivity rules.

• Futures Fast Challenge: 5 profitable days before reward request
• Futures Fast Pro: 1 profitable day per reward request (50K)
• Futures Instant: 7 profitable days

• BrightPlus: no winning-day requirement.
• BrightCore SIM: 5 per payout, or 3 with the addon. Minimum closed net profit per session: 25K $100; 50K $200; 100K and 150K $300. Days need not be consecutive; at most one per session.

After a breach, within the time shown on the dashboard. Restarts evaluation even from SIM Funded, keeping the account number and addons. Costs 55% of the current list price including addons; addons cannot change and the hedging warning is not restored.

Up to 5 active SIM Funded accounts across all plans and sizes. Unlimited evaluations. With all 5 slots used, another evaluation pass waits until a slot opens.

No explicit minimum. Consistency requires at least 2 sessions on BrightPlus and 3 on BrightCore in practice.

Trade2Earn: activity earns BrightTokens redeemable for perks and evaluations, with no cash value. On Live, Prime Ladder pays bonuses every 10 winning days through Diamond (80 days); Prime Trader at 90 is status only. Total bonuses per account: 25K $5,000; 50K $10,000; 100K $20,000; 150K $30,000. Losing days and payouts preserve progress; an account breach resets it.

EAs allowed only as decision-support tools (alerts, partial management, predefined rules). Fully autonomous trading bots are prohibited.

Only exclusively self-authored software with no third-party access. It must not mirror another trader, be a black box or run simultaneously at other firms. Source-code review may be required.

VPN/VPS allowed without concealing identity or location or bypassing country restrictions. Only the owner may trade the account.

Cross-account hedging is forbidden.

Prohibited within and across your accounts, including different expiries, mini/micro and correlated instruments in the same group. First occurrence: warning, positions closed and profit removed while losses remain. Second: account breach. One warning per evaluation and one over the lifetime of SIM, not renewed by payouts or resets. Both accounts are penalized for a cross-account hedge.

Manual scalping allowed with minimum 5-second hold per trade. Tick scalping and HFT forbidden.

More than 50% of net winning-trade profit must come from trades held longer than 15 seconds. Partial fills count separately. Equality is insufficient. Noncompliance delays passing or blocks payouts without breaching the account; the calculation restarts after each payout. Exploitative tick scalping and HFT are prohibited.

Martingale strategies are forbidden.

Position size capped by contract count per account (see Max Allocation).

Outbound copy allowed; inbound copy from external sources forbidden.

Only between your BrightFunded accounts within the same profile. Copying others, signals or group trading is a hard breach.

News trading allowed without restrictions on Futures accounts.

• Futures Fast Challenge: 7 days
• Futures Fast Master: 14 days
• Futures Fast Pro Challenge: 7 days / Master: 14 days
• Futures Instant: 7 days

Days counted from the moment a position is CLOSED, not opened. Minimal 0.01-lot trades to game the rule don't count.

Open a new trade every 30 calendar days in evaluation and every 7 trading sessions in SIM, excluding holidays. Closing, editing and unfilled pending orders do not count. Advance warning; missing the deadline deactivates the account as a hard breach.

• Futures Fast Challenge: best day's profit must be < 40% of total accumulated profit. No consistency target on Master.
• Futures Fast Pro Challenge: same 40% rule.
• Futures Instant: best day cannot exceed 15% of total profit.
• Calculation: Best Day Profit / 0.40 = Minimum required total profit.

Evaluation only: best session / total net profit, up to 50% on BrightPlus and 40% on BrightCore. Includes commissions and losing days. Recalculated at session close; equality is allowed. Delays passing without breaching the account. Does not apply in SIM.

Weekend holds are unrestricted.

• Arbitrage (latency, reverse, statistical)
• HFT
• Tick scalping (under 5 seconds)
• Fully autonomous bots/EAs
• Cross-account hedging
• Gambling behaviors
• Martingale
• Inbound copy trading and signal services

Exploiting simulated prices, latency, fills or liquidity; arbitrage, spoofing, layering, abusive HFT, oversized one-way bets, account rolling, third-party management and risk or size changes inconsistent with normal trading. Terms allow affected profits to be removed, extra limits imposed or accounts closed.

Automatic close at 4:45 PM ET, Monday to Friday, without a breach for auto-close. CME session runs from 6:00 PM to 5:00 PM ET the next day; holiday cutoffs may be earlier.
