What the rules mean in practice
- To pass, grow the $50K account by $3,000 (6%) without breaking a loss limit.
- There is no daily loss limit, so a bad day only fails the account if it breaks the overall max loss.
- The account fails if you lose $2,000 (4%). This is intraday trailing drawdown: the loss limit follows your highest intraday equity in real time, including open profit that you later give back.
- Consistency rule: Evaluation: no day above 30% of total profit, or the target rises; none in Funded Sim
- At a 50% split, you need about 0.52% return on the funded account to earn back the $131 fee for one month.
- The drawdown trails the highest intraday balance, open profit included, and stops trailing once it reaches the starting balance.
- In Funded Sim a payout can be requested after one trading day from any positive balance, with no buffer and a $250 minimum.
- The split is set per account: 50/50 while current profit is under $4,000, 80/20 on the part of a payout that leaves more than $4,000 in profit, and 90/10 in Funded Live.
- The Funded Sim drawdown is based on gross profit (balance plus payouts), so payouts do not pull it back down.
- Each Funded Sim account is paused and reviewed for Funded Live at $10,000 of gross profit; profit above that level is removed and cannot be paid out.
- Resets are listed on the pricing table at $45, $59, $108 and $162, while the help centre lists $45, $59, $96 and $144. A failed evaluation is reset free when the subscription renews.
