The evaluation
Profit target
Reach 10% profit while following all the rules and the consistency rule. There's no minimum number of trading days to pass. Your account then has a final review, and once approved you become a funded trader.
Consistency rule: 50%
Your best day must be below 50% of your total profit, in both the evaluation and on your funded account. If it isn't, you're not breached; you just keep trading. Example: with a $1,000 best day, you need more than $2,000 total profit. On a funded account, the payout button stays unavailable until you meet it.
Maximum daily loss: 4%
Your daily loss limit is 4% of your starting balance, measured from whichever is higher at the 5:00 PM New York reset: your balance or your equity.
Floating profit at reset: on $100K with $2,000 floating profit, equity is $102,000, so it can't drop below $98,000 the next day.
Floating loss at reset: with $2,000 floating loss, your $100,000 balance is higher, so equity can't drop below $96,000.
No open trades: the limit is your closed balance minus 4% of your starting balance.
Maximum drawdown: 6% trailing
Your maximum drawdown trails 6% below your highest closed balance. Once you reach +6%, it locks at your starting balance and stops trailing. Drawdown includes closed profits and losses, swaps and commissions.
Example on $100K: you start with a daily limit of $96,000 and a max drawdown of $94,000. After making $5,000 (balance $105,000), the next day's daily limit is $101,000 and your max drawdown trails up to $99,000.
Funded account
Payouts
When: every 7 days, once you've had 5 trading days with 0.5% profit or more (they don't need to be consecutive) and you meet the 50% consistency rule. The 7-day payout add-on isn't needed.
Conditions: account above starting balance, no rule violations and all positions closed.
1% withdrawal buffer: once you reach +6% and your drawdown locks, you must leave 1% of your starting balance in profit when you withdraw.
Profit split: 85%, or 100% with the add-on.
Guardian Shield: doesn't apply to Nano accounts.
