Yes. For the first four (4) approved payouts per funded account, payout caps apply based on the account size. These payout caps increase by 10% with each approved payout, up to the fourth payout. Any profits above the applicable cap remain in the account and may be requested in future payout cycles, subject to eligibility requirements.
From the 5th approved payout onward, payouts become fully uncapped. All standard eligibility and risk management rules continue to apply.
Yes, to ensure consistent risk management and promote sustainable trading behaviors, traders are subject to a daily loss limit on the performance accounts. On any given trading day, a trader is only permitted to incur a loss of up to 50% of the End-of-Day (EOD) drawdown limit. Surpassing this daily threshold is considered a rule violation.
This measure is in place to help traders maintain their accounts for longer durations and encourage prudent trading habits.
Enjoy the convenience and efficiency of these withdrawal methods to access your rewards quickly and securely.
The Drawdown stops trailing upward once it reaches the initial account balance. This feature distinguishes us from many other firms.
The Pro Drawdown EOD dynamically tracks the account balance at the close of each trading day, factoring in simulated commissions and fees.
When the account balance reaches a new all-time high, the Drawdown will also trail and increase by the same amount until it reaches the initial account balance. At that point, it stops trailing, offering traders a valuable advantage not commonly found elsewhere.
Evaluation: If you break a rule within your evaluation, you can reset the account at any time. (Reset-Fee $99).
However, it’s important to note the following:
1. It’s advisable to reset your evaluation account if it has more than 15 trading days left before its expiry.
2. Resetting your account will reset the account balance and the trading days to “0”. However, it doesn’t mean that you will get an additional 30 days, as the account will still expire on its original expiry date.
For example, resetting your account will not result in you getting an additional 30 days.
Performance Account: If you break a rule while trading a performance account, you will have to requalify via a new evaluation because a Performance account cannot be “Reset.”
If you have ongoing fees for the performance account, the subscription will be automatically canceled.
Absolutely not. Five trading days is the minimum requirement for eligibility with our funding partners. However, there is no maximum limit on the number of trading days. You can continue trading until you reach your target, even if it takes several months. The billing cycle renews every 30 days.
