Paid add-on with a fixed price per size, from $9 (2.5K) to $146 (200K). Reviewed if profit comes mainly from positions held through the rollover.

If you don’t complete a challenge, you can restart it at any time with a 12% discount. You’ll also get a single-use coupon that gives you 10% off any program.

Reset: buy a Reset to continue from the phase where you breached instead of starting over — it issues a new account at that phase (Funded reset gives a new Funded account, no re-evaluation). Available any time, or within 14 days of a breach. Each phase can be reset once. Price is a % of the original Challenge: Phase 1 −7%; Phase 2 +45–50%; Phase 3 +80%; Funded +50–175% (Instant: −7%).

Voluntary evaluation reset with no open positions: a new account at 20% off the current price. After a breach, a paid restart for 7 days. Funded accounts can buy a reset while under 10% of the max loss has been used.

• Payout On Demand (+15%)
• 100% Profit Split (+20%)
• Both add-ons (+30%)

Weekend Holding (20% of the fee) and Swap-Free (fixed price per size). Bought with the account and non-refundable.

Automatic 90-day cycles: +30% size (up to 680K; 340K on Instant) and +5 split points. They require 50 trades, 12% net (1 Step), 10% (2 Step) or 15% (Instant), 2 of 3 profitable months (all 3 on Instant and Prime), no trade above 7.5% of profit (5% on Instant and Prime) and no warning.

• 1-Step, 2-Step: Static
• Instant Funding: Trailing
• Instant Premium: EOD high-watermark; not recalculated intraday or downward
• Instant Daily: intraday trailing on peak balance/equity. Locks at the initial balance when reached or at the first payout, whichever comes first; never resets. Withdrawing down to the initial balance breaches the account.

Static on every plan: the floor stays fixed below the starting balance and is measured on equity, floating loss included. Touching it ends the account.

Profit split varies by product; see challenges. Add-ons may offer a higher split.

• Instant Daily: base split in the catalogue; 70% on payouts 3 and 4, 80% from payout 5.

Edge rises 5 points per scaling cycle up to 95%; Instant Pro up to 90%; Instant Go up to 85%. Prime moves to 100% after 30 days funded and does not rise with scaling. Each strike pays the next payout at 10%.

One free Edge 1 Step 100K for 14 days under the paid rules, after KYC approval. It never funds or pays out; passing it gives a 20% code valid for 30 days.

Most models: highest balance or equity recorded at end of day (EOD high-watermark).

• Instant HERO: daily starting balance at 5 PM EST.
• Instant Daily: none.

Measured from the previous day's closing balance (5 PM New York), floating loss included. Touching it ends the account.

Funded accounts only: minimum holding time of 1 minute for purchases from 6 October 2026 at 00:00 UTC; 2 minutes for earlier purchases, including their resets.

Yes. Once funded, trades under 120 seconds may make at most 20% of profit from the tenth closed trade; above that, payouts pause until it is back under. Not measured in the evaluation.

• Instant HERO: 1% maximum floating loss; breach closes the account.
• The firm may impose a 1% risk-per-trade-idea limit after excessive risk-taking.
• Instant Daily: combined floating loss across all open positions must stay below 1% of the initial balance; touching the limit closes the account.

Max. Exposure: open notional may not exceed 5,000% of the balance at 2.5K down to 1,000% at 200K. Once funded, no trade may float more than 2% of the starting balance in loss (1.5% on Instant). Each gives a warning that, if the account is in profit, resets it to the starting balance; the second ends the account. Instant: max 1.5% floating loss per symbol.

No best-day rule. A single trade may not exceed 60% of profit; if it does, payouts pause until it is back under. On funded Prime, every 7 days the trade count and volume per instrument must stay within ±25% of the average, or the account moves to a standard funded account.

Only with the add-on. Without it, positions are closed at 4:45 PM New York time on Friday: the first time is a warning, the second ends the account.
