📋 Quick Overview
Rule | Type | Details |
💵 Payout Requirement | REQUIRED | 1% profit before each payout |
📊 Best Day Rule | SOFT | No day > 20% of profits |

Rule Types |
|
🟢 SOFT | Delays payout, doesn't breach account |
🔴 HARD | Violating = immediate account termination |
💵 Payout Requirement: 1% Profit per Payout
What Is It?
Before requesting each payout, you must generate at least 1% profit from your initial funded account balance.
Why It Exists
This ensures every payout reflects genuine trading activity and consistent performance.
How It Works
Account Size | Min Profit Before Payout |
$10,000 | $100 |
$25,000 | $250 |
$50,000 | $500 |
$100,000 | $1,000 |
$200,000 | $2,000 |
$500,000 | $5,000 |
Key Points
✅ | Applies to each payout separately |
✅ | Resets after each successful withdrawal |
✅ | Only closed trades (realized P/L) count |
✅ | No minimum trading days required (for most accounts) |
✅ | Trade at your own pace – no rush |
Example
Scenario | Status |
$100K account, you made $800 profit | ❌ Cannot request withdrawal yet |
$100K account, you made $1,000 profit | ✅ Eligible to request withdrawal |
After withdrawal, requirement resets | 🔄 Need another $1,000 for next withdrawal |
💡 This is a universal rule across all funded accounts.
📊 Best Day Rule: 20%
What Is It?
No single trading day can represent more than 20% of your total profits when requesting a payout.
Why It Exists
We want to see consistent trading, not one lucky spike. This rule encourages traders to distribute performance across multiple days.
How It Works
Your Total Profit | Max Profit From Best Day |
$1,000 | $200 |
$2,500 | $500 |
$5,000 | $1,000 |
$10,000 | $2,000 |
$20,000 | $4,000 |
What Happens If Exceeded?
🟢 | Does NOT breach your account |
⏳ | Delays your payout |
📅 | Wait until profit distribution is more balanced |
✅ | Account remains fully active |
❌ Problem: Friday represents 30% of total – exceeds 20% limit.
✅ Solution: Continue trading until no single day exceeds 20%, or payout will be delayed.
⚠️ No Gaming the System
Prohibited |
|
❌ | Intentionally splitting a large winning position |
❌ | Hedging to spread profit across days artificially |
❌ | Closing parts of a trade separately to bypass the rule |
💡 If detected, the entire profit from that trade may be counted as if closed on a single day.
⚠️ 3% Single Trade Rule
What Is It?
You must not lose more than 3% of your initial funded balance on any single trade.
🔴 This Is a HARD BREACH Rule
🔴 | Violating this rule = immediate account termination |
🔴 | No warnings, no second chances |
🔴 | Account cannot be recovered |
Max Loss Per Trade
Account Size | Max Loss Per Trade |
$10,000 | $300 |
$25,000 | $750 |
$50,000 | $1,500 |
$100,000 | $3,000 |
$200,000 | $6,000 |
$500,000 | $15,000 |
Example
Scenario | Account: $100K | Status |
Open 1 lot EURUSD, lose $2,500 | Within 3% ($3,000) | ✅ OK |
Open 1 lot EURUSD, lose $3,500 | Exceeds 3% | 🔴 BREACH |
Open 3 × 0.5 lots EURUSD, total loss $3,200 | Counts as ONE trade | 🔴 BREACH |
How to Stay Safe
Best Practices |
|
✅ | Always calculate position size before entering |
✅ | Use stop losses |
✅ | Consider worst-case slippage |
✅ | Never risk more than 2.5% to leave buffer |
📉 Drawdown Rules
Daily Drawdown:
📉 | Maximum loss allowed within a 24-hour period |
🔄 | Resets at 00:00 UTC |
🔴 | HARD BREACH – violating terminates account |
How Daily Drawdown Is Calculated
📊 | Based on your equity (including open positions) |
🕐 | Measured from day start (00:00 UTC) |
📈 | Both realized AND unrealized losses count |
Example 3%
Time (UTC) | Equity | Daily Loss | Status |
00:00 (start) | $100,000 | $0 | ✅ |
10:00 | $98,500 | -$1,500 | ✅ OK |
14:00 | $97,200 | -$2,800 | ⚠️ Close to limit |
16:00 | $96,800 | -$3,200 | 🔴 BREACH |
Dynamic Risk Shield™ Explained
For most funded accounts, the max drawdown is Dynamic – it trails upward with your profits.
How It Works |
|
📍 | Starts at X% below initial balance |
📈 | Moves UP as your equity grows |
📉 | Never moves down |
🔒 | Locks at initial balance once reached |
Scenario ($100K, 4% Dynamic) | Equity | Shield Level | Status |
🟢 Start | $100,000 | $96,000 | ✅ Active |
🟢 Profit +$5K | $105,000 | $100,800 | ✅ Shield rises |
🟡 Loss -$3K | $102,000 | $100,800 | ✅ Still safe |
🔴 Loss -$2K | $100,000 | $100,800 | ❌ BREACH |
💡 The shield protects your progress but also means you must manage risk carefully as you profit.
