Additional Rules

No evaluation — all funded rules from trade one. Daily loss limit of 3% — $4,500 — Soft Breach: trading paused when equity falls $4,500 below the day's starting balance — the highest absolute daily protection in the Instant lineup.
Intraday trailing drawdown of 5% — $7,500 (real-time): The floor begins at $142,500. With 8 Mini contracts, a 1-point adverse ES move generates $400. The entire $7,500 buffer can be consumed in approximately 18-19 adverse points at full capacity. However, $7,500 of trailing protection is the most generous absolute dollar buffer across all GOAT Funded Futures account types — giving traders the most room to manage intraday adverse moves without reaching the floor.
First payout: 10 calendar day minimum + 7 winning days (min $300/day = 0.2% of $150,000). Must surpass previous equity high before next payout cycle begins. The $300 daily minimum is the highest qualifying day threshold across all Instant account sizes.
20% consistency rule at maximum scale: On a $150,000 Instant account, any single day generating 20% or more of total profits blocks payout eligibility. With $300 minimum qualifying days, large sessions early in a payout cycle can dominate the accumulated profit ratio, requiring extended multi-session trading to normalize before a withdrawal is accessible.
Equity recovery requirement after each payout: After every withdrawal, the next payout cycle cannot begin until the account's equity surpasses the pre-withdrawal level. At the $150,000 scale, post-payout equity recovery requires generating meaningful profits before the next 7 winning days can even begin to count — creating a layered payout structure at the highest funded account level.
No reset available. Overnight and weekend holding prohibited. News trading restricted — 2-minute buffer.

Scaling Plan

Immediate funded access. Up to 3 simultaneously active Instant funded accounts, allowing up to $450,000 in stacked Instant capital at this size. Intraday trailing drawdown locks at starting balance once $7,500 in profits are accumulated. 100% profit split on first $10K then 90/10. No activation fee. Reward tier system from dashboard.
Largest Instant funded account in the lineup: At $150,000 with 8 Mini contracts, the Instant $150,000 is the highest-value single Instant account available at GOAT Funded Futures. It provides the largest absolute dollar protection ($7,500 intraday trailing buffer), the largest daily soft breach ($4,500), and the highest contract capacity (8 Minis) in the Instant lineup.
