Additional Rules

Two-phase evaluation: On a $25,000 account, traders must generate $2,500 in Phase 1 and $1,250 in Phase 2 in closed profits while respecting all risk rules.
Minimum profitable days: At least 3 profitable trading days required in each phase and per payout cycle. Minimum profit of 0.5% ($125) per qualifying day.
Daily loss limit of 5% static: On a $25,000 account, the maximum daily loss is $1,250.
Maximum drawdown of 10% static: The absolute floor is $22,500 on a $25,000 account.
No time limit across all phases.
Leverage: 1:50 Forex, 1:15 Metals/Energies, 1:10 Indices, 1:2 Crypto.
Profit split: 80% default, 90% add-on available.
Payout frequency: Bi-weekly, minimum $100 withdrawal.
News trading: Permitted in challenge. In funded, ±2 minute news restriction applies with profit removal.
EAs, scalping and swing trading permitted. HFT, arbitrage, all-in sizing prohibited. Copy trading only between own accounts.
Weekend and overnight holding permitted. No consistency rule.
Inactivity rule: 90 days.
Daily limit and total buffer: The $1,250 daily loss limit represents exactly 50% of the $2,500 total buffer. Two consecutive maximum-loss sessions eliminate the entire drawdown allowance, with no opportunity for recovery.
Phase 1 target equals total drawdown: On a $25,000 account, both the Phase 1 target and the total max drawdown are $2,500. This means the evaluation simultaneously requires the trader to hit the target while protecting the same dollar amount in risk — a demanding combination that penalizes inconsistency harshly.

Scaling Plan

Performance-based account growth: Traders who demonstrate consistent performance can increase their account allocation by 25% every four months, allowing progressive access to larger capital without a new challenge requirement.
VIP rewards program: After 4 months of funded trading and 4 successful withdrawals with an average monthly profit of at least 4%, traders unlock a free challenge replacement, higher capital allocation, and a 90% profit split.
Maximum capital allocation: Through performance-based growth, traders can reach a maximum total allocation of $400,000.
Consistent rules throughout growth: All trading rules and risk parameters remain unchanged as the account grows.
Profit split progression: The default 80% split increases to 90% through the VIP rewards program.
