Direct skips the evaluation entirely — sign the Trader Agreement and you’re trading a funded account from day one. There’s no profit target to hit first; the trade-off is a fixed Daily Loss Limit and a payout structure that rewards consistency over time.
Key Facts
- No profit target — instant funded account, just sign the agreement
- Max Drawdown (EOD): $1,500 | Daily Loss Limit: $1,000
- Max position size: 1 mini / 10 micros, with position scaling as you grow
- Consistency rule scales with payouts: 20% on your 1st, 25% on your 2nd, 30% on your 3rd onward
- Payouts are instant once you clear the consistency and profit goal for that payout — no profit buffer required

📋 Additional Rules
No evaluation phase — trading starts immediately after signing the Trader Agreement. Save 25% off standard price with code BG25 (list price $307, code price $230). Bundle discount for multiple accounts: 2 accounts 30% off, 3 accounts 35% off, 4 accounts 40% off, buy 5 and the 5th account is free. No profit buffer requirement on Direct accounts. Payout cap fixed at $1,000 for all payouts. Payout profit goal: $1,500 for 1st payout, $1,000 for each after. Drawdown sits static at starting balance + $100 until the account grows past that level, then trails EOD; it locks for good after your first payout. No monthly or activation fee. Micro scalping restricted: under 50% of profit can come from trades held under 10 seconds. Copy trading allowed only between accounts owned by the same trader.
Things to Remember
- There’s no evaluation to fail here, but that also means no free reset — the Daily Loss Limit and drawdown are live from your very first trade.
- Your first payout needs $1,500 in profit and a highest-day under 20% of that total. Every payout after only needs $1,000 more profit, but the consistency bar climbs to 25% then 30%.
- The payout cap on the 25K plan doesn’t increase after your first three payouts like the bigger sizes — it stays fixed at $1,000.
- Unlike Express, there’s no funded buffer requirement — you can request a payout the moment you clear the profit goal and consistency rule.
- Drawdown sits static at $25,100 until your balance grows past that, then it trails end-of-day and locks for good once you take your first payout.
FAQ
- Do I need to pass a challenge first?
- No — Direct accounts skip the evaluation. You sign the Trader Agreement and start trading funded immediately.
- Why does the consistency requirement change over time?
- It’s designed to reward traders who stick around: 20% on your first payout, 25% on your second, 30% from the third onward. Violating it doesn’t breach your account, it just delays that payout until your profit spread qualifies.
- Is there a minimum withdrawal?
- Yes — $1,000, whether you withdraw via Rise or crypto.
- Does the payout cap ever go up on the 25K plan?
- No — it’s the one size where the cap stays at $1,000 whether it’s your first payout or your fifteenth. The 50K, 100K, and 150K plans do step up after the third payout.
