This is your simulated funded account after passing the Evaluation. There is no daily loss rule. You manage risk at the account level.

Core rules

• Overall trailing drawdown: 6% (extendable to 8% with add-on)
• Consistency rule: 20%
• Minimum trading days per cycle: 5 (removable with add-on)
• Minimum profit per day: depends on account size
• No single day profit limit
• No single trade profit limit

Minimum trading days

• A trading day counts when you place at least one trade that opens and closes within that day
• Aim for steady activity to reach at least 5 days each cycle

• The minimum trading day requirement can be removed by purchasing the No Minimum Trading Days add-on

Minimum profit per day

• Each account size has a small required profit on any day that counts toward the minimum trading days requirement

Account Size

Minimum Profit per Day

$25,000

$100

$50,000

$200

$100,000

$400

Consistency rule

• Any single trade or single day’s profit should be no more than 20% of your total cycle profit
• This avoids one oversized day dominating the cycle


Example

If your total cycle profit is $6,000 then the largest day or largest trade should be $1,200 or less

Overall trailing drawdown 6%

• The drawdown level follows your equity highs

• Default is 6%. Upgradeable to 8% with the Extended Max Drawdown add-on
• Keep enough buffer to avoid touching the level during spread or volatility spikes
• Track live equity, not just balance

Payouts

• Bi-weekly payout schedule

• Request payout in your dashboard
• Approval is instant
• Maximum withdrawal per cycle is 6%

• Profit split progresses across payouts: 50% → 70% → 90%
• After each withdrawal, the trailing drawdown resets

Allowed

• No daily loss rule
• Weekend holding allowed
• News trading allowed
• Strategy changes allowed
• EAs allowed, including your own custom EAs
• Copy trading across your own Paid To Trade accounts is allowed

Not allowed

• Grid trading, martingale, pyramid scaling
• Asymmetric or tick scalping designed to manufacture consistency
• All-in trades that risk the majority of the account in one idea

Simple plan to stay compliant

• Plan your week to hit 5 trading days with small, steady gains
• Keep each winning day under the 20 percent consistency cap
• Check your minimum profit per day target before the session
