| Account size | Daily drawdown | Max drawdown |
|---|---|---|
| $50K | $1,700 | $2,300 |
| $75K | $1,950 | $2,600 |

Getting paid
You can request a payout when all of these are true:
- You have 3 winning days since your last payout request.
- You have reached the payout goal for your account size.
- Your payout is within the min and max for your account size.
- No single day is more than 50% of your total profit (consistency rule).
- You have followed all the general rules.
| Account size | Winning day = close at least | Payout goal | Min payout | Max payout |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $50K | $150 | $1,500 | $200 | $2,500 |
| $75K | $225 | $3,000 | $300 | $3,000 |
| $100K | $300 | $3,500 | $400 | $3,500 |
| $150K | $450 | $5,000 | $600 | $4,000 |
| $200K | $600 | $6,500 | $1,000 | $5,000 |
A winning day is a day that closes at 0.3% of the account size or more ($150 on a $50,000 account, $225 on $75,000, $300 on $100,000, $450 on $150,000, $600 on $200,000). You need 3 winning days, and the count starts over after every payout request. The payout goal applies to every payout (1st, 2nd and later).

Consistency rule (50%)
This rule applies to payouts on your funded account — not during the evaluation. No single trading day can make up more than 50% of your total profit at the time you request a payout. It rewards steady growth instead of one big day.
Total profit: $10,000 → the most any one day can count for is $5,000 (50% of $10,000).
If one day made $6,000, that’s over the 50% limit, so your payout is delayed until your profits are more evenly spread.
All payouts must also follow the general rules that apply to every account.
