Additional Rules
Two-phase evaluation: Traders must reach a 10% profit target in Phase 1 and a 5% profit target in Phase 2, both with no time limit. On a $5,000 account, this means generating $500 in Phase 1 and $250 in Phase 2 in closed profits while respecting all drawdown rules.
Minimum profitable days: At least 3 valid trading days are required in each phase and per payout cycle. A valid day requires a minimum profit of 0.5% ($25) on a $5,000 account.
Daily loss limit of 5% (dynamic): Unlike the GOAT and PRO models that use 4% of the initial balance, the Standard's daily limit is calculated as 5% of the current higher balance or equity at 5:00 PM EST. On a $5,000 account starting from initial balance, this means approximately $250 initially. As the account grows, the daily threshold adjusts upward proportionally.
Maximum drawdown of 10% static: The absolute floor is $4,500 on a $5,000 account. Breach occurs if equity or balance reaches this level at any point including floating losses.
Static drawdown model: The maximum drawdown limit is calculated from the initial account balance. The daily limit, however, is dynamic and adjusts with the current higher balance or equity.
Leverage: Up to 1:100 Forex in evaluation, reduced to 1:50 in funded. Indices and Commodities 1:20 in evaluation, 1:10 in funded. Crypto 1:2 throughout.
Profit split: 80% default. Add-ons: 100% profit split and on-demand first reward (40% split after 3 days funded).
Payout frequency: Bi-weekly. First 2 payouts capped at 6% ($300) or $10,000, whichever is lower.
Daily profit cap in funded stage: $3,000 per day.
News trading: Permitted in evaluation. In funded, 1% profit cap ($50) per news event within 5-minute window.
EAs allowed with restrictions. Copy trading banned. Weekend/overnight holding permitted.
Standard vs GOAT comparison: The Standard uses 10%+5% targets (higher Phase 1, lower Phase 2) with a 5% dynamic daily limit and 10% max drawdown. The GOAT uses 8%+6% with a 4% fixed daily limit and the same 10% max drawdown. Standard offers a slightly more generous daily limit but demands a higher Phase 1 target, while GOAT distributes effort more evenly across phases.
5% dynamic daily limit: Because the Standard's daily limit is 5% of the current balance/equity rather than 5% of initial balance, a growing account creates a proportionally larger daily loss threshold. A trader at $5,200 would have a daily limit of approximately $260 rather than the fixed $250, offering marginally more buffer as profits accumulate.
Phase 2 at only 5%: The Standard's Phase 2 is the easiest of the three 2-step models at 5%. On a $5,000 account, just $250 is needed to pass Phase 2, making this model the most accessible across both phases when combined.
