What the rules mean in practice
- To pass, grow the $50K account by $4,000 (8%) 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 $2,500 (5%). 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; 30% best-day rule on CASH accounts
- At a 80% split, you need about 0.41% return on the funded account to earn back the $164 fee for one month.
- The drawdown ($2,500, $3,000 or $4,500) is recalculated from the end-of-day balance at the 10:00 PM (UTC+2) session close and does not move during the day. On 50K and 100K CASH accounts it stops trailing at the starting balance plus $100.
- All positions must be closed before the end of the trading day (9:59 PM UTC); holding past it disqualifies the account.
- Payouts: a request needs 10 trading days with net profit of at least $150 (50K), $200 (100K) or $250 (150K) and a balance of at least $52,600, $103,700 or $154,500. Each request is capped at $2,000, $2,500 or $2,750, and the balance cannot drop below the starting balance plus $100.
- On CASH accounts no single day may exceed 30% of total profit, checked over at least 4 trading days; going over is not a breach but delays the payout.
- A failed evaluation can be reset for $40, $64 or $104, or is reset automatically at the next 30-day rebill.
- A live account is offered at the firm's discretion; traders are reviewed from 5 payouts or $100,000 in cumulative profit across accounts.
