Step 1: Evaluation
Trailing Drawdown | Min none days
📊 Step Consistency
50% best day rule
📋 Additional Rules
No minimum trading days to pass. The 50% consistency rule applies here too, if your best day is 50% or more of your profit you just keep trading until it drops below, nothing breaches. Daily loss is 4% of the initial balance, reset at 5pm EST from the higher of balance or equity. Max drawdown is 6% trailing on your highest closed balance and locks at your starting balance once you reach 6% profit. News trading is allowed in the evaluation. Minimum hold time is 2 minutes.
Step 2: Funded
Trailing Drawdown | Min 5 profitable days days
📊 Step Consistency
50% best day rule
📋 Additional Rules
You keep 85% of profit, or 100% with the add-on, and payouts run every 7 days. You need 5 profitable days of 0.5% or more before you can withdraw. Once the drawdown locks, 1% of the initial balance must stay in the account at payout. No opening or closing trades 5 minutes either side of high-impact news and FOMC events on funded accounts.
Things to Remember
- Going over the 50% consistency level never breaches the account. You just keep trading until your best day drops below half of your profit.
- The trailing drawdown follows your highest closed balance until it locks at your starting balance after 6% profit, and then 1% of the initial balance has to stay in the account at payout.
- News trading is allowed in the evaluation, but funded accounts can’t open or close trades 5 minutes either side of high-impact news and FOMC events.
- Trades closed in under 2 minutes can be flagged as tick scalping.
- Payouts have a $100 minimum via crypto or $500 via Rise.
