Additional Rules

Two-phase evaluation: On a $50,000 account, traders must generate $5,000 in Phase 1 and $2,500 in Phase 2 in closed profits while respecting all drawdown rules.
Minimum profitable days: At least 3 valid trading days in each phase and per payout cycle. Minimum profit of 0.5% ($250) per qualifying day.
Daily loss limit of 5% (dynamic): Calculated as 5% of the current higher balance or equity. Starting from initial balance, approximately $2,500 on a $50,000 account.
Maximum drawdown of 10% static: The absolute floor is $45,000 on a $50,000 account.
Static drawdown model: Maximum drawdown from initial balance; daily limit is dynamic.
Leverage: 1:100 Forex in evaluation, 1:50 in funded. Indices/Commodities 1:20 / 1:10. Crypto 1:2.
Profit split: 80% default, 100% and on-demand first reward available as add-ons.
Payout frequency: Bi-weekly. First 2 payouts capped at 6% ($3,000) or $10,000, whichever is lower.
Daily profit cap: $3,000 in funded stage. At $50,000, the $2,500 daily loss limit and $3,000 daily profit cap create a near-symmetrical risk-reward boundary, giving traders a balanced framework for funded-stage management.
News trading: In funded, 1% profit cap ($500) per news event.
EAs allowed with restrictions. Copy trading banned. Weekend/overnight holding permitted.
5% dynamic daily limit at $50,000: Starting at $2,500 of daily risk, the Standard's dynamic limit is notably more generous than the GOAT model's fixed $2,000. Traders with higher intraday variance will benefit from this extra $500 of daily buffer.
Phase 1 at 10% is the steepest in the 2-step lineup: Generating $5,000 across at least 3 qualifying days requires averaging $1,667 per qualifying session — a meaningful performance bar that filters out inconsistent traders before Phase 2 even begins.

Scaling Plan

Level 1 capital boost: After 2 months in the funded phase and 4 successful payouts, the account balance increases by 15%, profit split rises to 90%, and both drawdown limits increase by 1%.
Level 2 progression: After 4 months in the funded phase and 6 successful payouts, the capital boost increases to 30%, drawdown limits increase by 2%, and payout frequency upgrades to weekly.
Level 3 consistency reward: After 5 months in the funded phase and 10 successful payouts, the capital boost reaches 40%, profit split rises to 92%, drawdown limits increase by 3%, weekly payouts continue, a free challenge replacement is unlocked, and a monthly salary of $300 applies.
Level 4 GOAT Trader status: After 6 months in the funded phase and 15 successful payouts, the capital boost reaches 50%, profit split rises to 95%, drawdown limits increase by 4%, and total capital can reach up to $2,000,000.
Scale-ups based on original account size: All scaling increases are calculated from the original account size.
Performance-based eligibility: All scaling milestones require the required funded months and payouts with consistent trading rule adherence.
