Reserve account rules

Reserve Futures plan: profit target, consistency, optional daily loss limit, EOD trailing drawdown, payouts, resets and reactivation.

Applies to: Futures

Short answer

Reserve is a one-phase Futures evaluation. Hit a 6% profit target while meeting the consistency rule and staying within an end-of-day trailing drawdown. There's no daily loss limit unless you choose the optional one at checkout for a lower price. Once funded, you can request up to 50% of your profit after 5 winning days, with a 90% profit split.

The evaluation

Profit target

Reach 6% profit while following all the rules. Your account then has a final review, and once approved you become a funded trader.

Consistency rule (evaluation only)

Your best day can't make up more than 50% of your total profit. If it does, you're not breached. You just keep trading until your best day falls below the limit.

  • 1% cushion: on the standard 50% rule, your best day can be up to 51% of total profit. For example, on a $50K account at exactly the $3,000 target, your best day can be up to $1,530 instead of $1,500.

  • 40% option: if you chose the 40% consistency add-on at checkout (for a lower price), your best day can't exceed 40% of total profit. Example: with a $2,000 best day, you need at least $5,000 total profit.

Funded Reserve accounts have no consistency rule.

Daily loss limit (optional)

Reserve has no daily loss limit by default. If you chose the optional limit at checkout, hitting it is a soft breach: trading locks for the rest of the day and unlocks at the 5:00 PM New York rollover. The account isn't failed.

Maximum trailing drawdown

Reserve uses an end-of-day (EOD) trailing drawdown. Your loss limit moves up only when you set a new highest end-of-day closing balance. It doesn't follow unrealised profit during the day, and it never moves down. Hitting it is a hard breach.

  • Evaluation: the limit keeps trailing for the whole evaluation.

  • Funded: the limit stops trailing once it reaches your starting balance + $100, and stays fixed from then on.

After any payout, your drawdown floor also locks at starting balance + $100.

Funded account

Contract limits

You start funded at a lower contract limit, and it scales up as your end-of-day balance grows. See Futures contract limits and funded scaling.

Payouts

  • When: after at least 5 winning days, each meeting the minimum winning day for your size. They don't need to be consecutive.

  • Payouts 2–5: you also need the minimum net profit since your last payout. Net profit includes all profits and losses since your last approved payout.

  • How much: up to 50% of your total profit per request, up to your cap. For example, on $50K with $3,000 profit you can request $1,500. With $5,000 profit you can request $2,000, because of the cap.

  • Reset: winning days and net profit both reset after each approved payout.

  • Profit split: 90%. Minimum: $500 by crypto or Rise.

Resets and reactivation

Evaluation reset

If you breach your evaluation, you can reset it instead of buying a new account. The reset fee is 10% less than the discounted price you originally paid, so it varies with your account, size and any discount applied.

Funded reactivation

If your funded Reserve account breaches before its first payout, you can reactivate it without repeating the evaluation:

  • Up to two reactivations per account

  • Must be bought within 30 calendar days of the breach

  • The account is reactivated at the start of the next trading session

Other rules

  • News trading: allowed on evaluation and funded accounts. Expect slippage and wider spreads around high-impact news.

  • Stop losses: not mandatory, but every trade needs a defined risk. See Futures risk management rules.

  • Microscalping: less than 50% of your profit may come from trades held under 10 seconds.

  • Fees: one-time purchase. No monthly or activation fees.
