What the rules mean in practice

  • To pass, grow the $50K account by $3,000 (6%) without breaking a loss limit.
  • On any single day you can lose up to $1,200 (2.4%). Check Lucid Trading's rules for whether that is measured from the day's starting balance or equity, because open trades count.
  • The account fails if you lose $2,000 (4%). This is end-of-day trailing drawdown: the loss limit moves up once a day, based on your end-of-day balance, and ignores swings during the session.
  • Consistency rule: None in the evaluation; 40% best-day rule in each funded payout cycle
  • At a 90% split, you need about 0.38% return on the funded account to earn back the $172 fee.
  • Payouts: each cycle needs a profit goal of $250, $500, $750 or $1,000, a best day of no more than 40% of cycle profit, and a balance above a buffer equal to the loss limit plus $100. There is no fixed payout window.
  • Per-request caps are $1,000, $2,000, $2,500 or $3,000 on the first payout and $1,500, $2,500, $3,000 or $3,500 after that; the minimum request is $500.
  • Prices are for the default configuration with the daily loss limit on, which also allows on-demand payouts during the session. Turning the daily loss limit off costs more and moves payouts to the end-of-day schedule.
  • The daily loss limit is a soft breach. On the funded account it becomes 60% of the highest end-of-day profit once the balance closes above the initial trail level.
  • The loss limit trails the closing balance and locks at the starting balance plus $100 once the account closes above $26,100, $52,100, $103,100 or $154,600.
  • The help center lists no daily loss limit on the 25K evaluation, while the pricing page shows a $600 limit in the default configuration.
  • The funded account article says there are no simulated payout caps, while the payout article sets per-request maximums; this file records the maximums.
  • Resets cost $75, $120, $190 and $255.
