Additional Rules
6% profit target ($9,000) with no daily limit or consistency rule in evaluation: The most flexible evaluation at the largest account size in AquaFutures. Passable in 1 day with no session-level restrictions.
EOD maximum drawdown of $5,000 (3.33%): The initial floor is $145,000. With 10 Mini contracts, a 5-point adverse ES move generates $2,500 — 50% of the buffer in five price points. Breach at session close terminates the evaluation permanently.
10 Mini contracts — unique to the Standard $150K: The Standard $150,000 is the only AquaFutures account offering 10 Mini contracts. The Beginner $150K caps at 9 Minis. This extra contract provides meaningfully greater position capacity, particularly relevant for breakout strategies and multi-contract scaling approaches.
Fixed 10-Mini funded capacity from day one: Unlike the Beginner $150K where funded trading starts at 2 Minis and scales through 5 profit tiers to reach 9 Minis, the Standard $150K funded account provides all 10 Minis immediately. This full-capacity access from day one is the primary operational advantage of the Standard over the Beginner at the $150,000 tier.
40% consistency activates in funded stage: Balance target of $154,600 means first payout requires $4,600 in profits. A single day generating $1,840 or more (40% of $4,600) blocks the payout until the ratio normalizes.
5 winning days (min $580/day): The $580 minimum qualifying day threshold matches the Beginner $150K — the highest in the AquaFutures lineup. Only sessions generating $580+ count toward the 5-day requirement. This demands consistently strong daily performance across every payout cycle.
Reward cap of $3,000 vs Beginner's $4,500: The Standard $150K has a lower payout cap per cycle ($3,000) than the Beginner ($4,500). Traders generating very large monthly profits will extract more per cycle from the Beginner — but at the cost of weekly-only payouts, evaluation consistency constraints, and contract scaling restrictions.
1.8:1 PT:DD ratio at $150,000 demands efficient execution: Generating $9,000 against $5,000 of EOD buffer means two consecutive $2,500 loss sessions would consume the entire buffer while the target remains fully unmet. Consistent net-positive performance from session one is essential throughout the entire evaluation arc.
Platforms: Tradovate, Volumetrica.
