Getting paid

- You have 4 winning days — days that close at $150 or more — since your last payout request.
- You have followed all the general rules.
There is no first payout goal and no consistency rule on the funded account.
| Account size | Winning day = close at least | Max payout |
|---|---|---|
| $25K | $150 | $1,000 |
| $50K | $150 | $2,000 |
| $100K | $150 | $3,000 |
| $150K | $150 | $5,000 |
You need 4 winning days, and the count starts over after every payout request. Once you have them, you can request any amount up to your max payout.
