50K $250 $2,000 Unlimited
100K $250 $2,500 Unlimited
How the Available Payout Is Calculated
The trader can request 50% of the profit generated, provided the fixed 35% consistency rule is met and the amount meets the minimum and maximum payout limits per request for the account size.
Example 1: Standard Payout on a 50K Account
A trader starts with a $50,000 account.
The trader:
Completes 5 profitable trading days.
Generates at least $150 on each qualifying day.
Generates $1,000 in net profit.
Meets the 35% consistency rule: the highest net profitable day does not exceed $350, which is 35% of $1,000.
The account balance reaches $51,000.
The available payout is calculated as follows:
Concept Amount
Net profit generated $1,000
Available for payout at 50% $500
Maximum payout for a 50K account $2,000
Approved payout request $500
The trader can request a payout of $500.
With the 85/15 profit split, the trader receives:
85% of $500 = $425
After the $500 payout is deducted, the account balance becomes $50,500.
The remaining $500 stays in the account.
Example 2: Payout Limited by the Account maximum request.
A trader starts with a $50,000 account and generates $5,000 in net profit.
The account balance reaches $55,000.
The trader also completes the required 5 profitable trading days, generating at least $150 on each qualifying day.
The trader meets the 35% consistency rule: the highest net profitable day does not exceed $1,750, which is 35% of $5,000.
The available payout is calculated as follows:
Concept Amount
Net profit generated $5,000
50% of the net profit $2,500
Maximum payout for a 50K account $2,000
Approved payout request $2,000
Although 50% of the net profit is $2,500, the maximum payout per request for a 50K account is $2,000.
With the 85/15 profit split, the trader receives:
85% of $2,000 = $1,700
After the $2,000 payout is deducted, the account balance becomes $53,000.
The remaining $3,000 stays in the account.
Second and Subsequent Payouts
For second and subsequent payouts, the trader must generate positive net profit after the previous payout.
In technical terms, the account balance must be at least $1 above the balance remaining immediately after the previous payout. This post-payout balance becomes the Starting Balance for the current payout cycle. The $1 simply confirms that the trader has generated positive new profit since the previous payout.
However, reaching $1 above the Starting Balance does not make the account eligible for a payout, because all other payout requirements must still be met.
The trader must also complete another 5 profitable trading days, generating at least $150 in profit on each qualifying day.
The fixed 35% consistency rule also applies to each subsequent payout cycle. The highest net profitable day cannot represent more than 35% of the new net profit generated during that cycle.
The trader can request 50% of the new profit generated, subject to the minimum and maximum payout limits for the account size, while the remaining profit stays in the account.
Example: Subsequent Payout on a 50K Account
After the first payout, the trader’s account balance is $52,000.
Reaching $52,001 would satisfy the positive net profit requirement. However, it would not be enough to request a payout because the minimum payout request, the 5 positive trading days of $150, the 35% consistency rule and the 50% rule still apply.
If the trader wants to request another $1,000 payout, the account must generate $2,000 in new profit and reach a balance of $54,000.
To meet the 35% consistency rule, the highest net profitable day in this payout cycle must not exceed $700, which is 35% of $2,000.
The trader can request 50% of the $2,000 in new profit:
50% of $2,000 = $1,000
The remaining $1,000 stays in the account.
The 85/15 profit split applies. Therefore, the trader receives:
85% of $1,000 = $850
Drawdown Behavior
Trailing Drawdown: Follows the highest intraday balance.
EOD Drawdown: Follows the highest End-of-Day balance.
In both versions, the drawdown follows the account balance until it reaches the corresponding lock level. Once locked, it never moves again.
Drawdown Lock Levels
Account Size Maximum Drawdown Balance Where Drawdown Locks Final Drawdown Level
25K $1,000 $26,100 $25,100
50K $2,000 $52,100 $50,100
100K $3,000 $103,100 $100,100
Example: 50K Account
If the account balance is $50,200, the drawdown is $48,200.
It continues following the balance until the account reaches $52,100. At that point, the drawdown locks at $50,100 and never moves again.
Drawdown Lock After a Payout
If a payout is requested before the account reaches its drawdown lock balance, the drawdown locks immediately at the final level shown in the table.
For example, if a trader generates $1,500 on a 50K account, meets the 35% consistency rule with no net profitable day exceeding $525, and requests a $750 payout, the account balance becomes $50,750. Since the payout was requested before reaching $52,100, the drawdown locks permanently at $50,100.
