Frequently Asked Questions

You may only have one active Funded Futures account per starting tier size at a time. The allowed tiers are $25K, $50K and $100K — meaning the maximum number of active accounts you can hold at once is three, one of each size. Altogether, the combined starting balances of your active accounts cannot exceed $175,000.

Futures accounts have a Consistency Requirement to ensure traders are not reaching profit targets through one oversized trading day or a small number of outsized trades. This promotes more consistent trading behavior and discourages YOLO-style trading. The calculation is: (Best Trading Day PnL / Total PnL) x 100. A lower value means profits are generated more consistently across multiple trading days. A higher value means profits are concentrated on fewer trading days. For example, a 50% consistency requirement means no more than 50% of your total profit can come from your best trading day. In simple terms, you cannot complete the profit target with one trading day alone. You must meet both the profit target and the consistency requirement, maintaining a consistency ratio at or below 50%, to hit your profit target, be eligible for a payout, or advance to the next phase. Example 1: On a $100K account with a profit target of $8,000, if you earn $4,000 on one day and $4,000 on another day, you meet the consistency requirement. Your best day is $4,000, and your total profit is $8,000, resulting in a consistency ratio of 50% ($4,000 / $8,000). Example 2: On a $100K account with a profit target of $8,000, if your profits are $6,000 on one day and $2,000 on another day, you violate the consistency requirement. Your best day is $6,000, and your total profit is $8,000, resulting in a consistency ratio of 75% ($6,000 / $8,000). To meet the 50% consistency requirement, you would need to reach a total profit of at least $12,000 while keeping your best trading day at or below $6,000.

No. But in order to complete the phase and be entitled to receive the payout, you will need to achieve both the profit target and the consistency requirement.

This is the predetermined profit amount you need to achieve in order to pass to the next phase of the program and be eligible to receive the payout.

No. You will need to purchase a new account if you breach it for any reason.

There is no specific Daily Loss Limit, but traders must always stay within the Max Trailing Loss.

The Maximum Trailing Loss trails based on the End of Day Balance. The applicable percentage may vary depending on the selected plan size and whether the account is in the Assessment phase or Funded phase, so please see your selected plan for the specific Max Drawdown rules that apply. For example, if your starting balance is $100,000 and your account has a 5% Maximum Trailing Loss, you can draw down to $95,000 before violating the Maximum Trailing Loss rule. If your End of Day Balance later increases to $102,000, that becomes your new End of Day High-Water Mark. Your Maximum Trailing Loss would then trail up to $97,000, which is 5% below the new End of Day High-Water Mark. Once the Maximum Trailing Loss reaches the starting balance, it locks at the starting balance. This means the Max Loss Limit will not continue increasing above your original starting balance. For purposes of these calculations, End of Day is defined as 1600 CST.

If you are in the Funded phase, you may request a payout once you meet all Funded payout requirements for your selected plan. To be eligible, you must satisfy the applicable Consistency Requirement, complete the required minimum profitable trading days, maintain any required non-withdrawable buffer, remain within all risk limits, and otherwise comply with the program rules.
