1. Sim Funded Account Parameters
Account Basics
Initial Balance: $0
Max Loss Distance: $3,000 from your equity high-water mark (HWM)
Drawdown Type: Intraday trailing
Consistency Rule: None in Sim Funded
Max Contracts: 10 minis / 100 micros
How the Max Loss Works
Your Max Loss limit trails your account equity high-water mark during the trading day.
The distance between your High-Water Mark (HWM) and the Max Loss Limit remains $3,000 while it is trailing.
As your account generates profits, both the HWM and Max Loss limit move upward.
Additional details can be found in Intraday Drawdown Explained.
Max Loss Lock at $100
Once the trailing Max Loss reaches $100, the drawdown locks in place.
The drawdown no longer trails after this point.
Your account must always maintain a minimum balance of $100.
If your balance falls below $100, the account will be considered breached.
News Trading
No Tier-1 (T1) news trading is allowed on the Sim Funded account.
Contract Limits
Traders may trade up to:
10 minis OR 100 micros total
Exceeding this contract limit may result in a breach of the trading account.
2. Payouts on Sim Funded (Daily)

Required Buffer: $3,100

Consistency Requirement
There is no consistency rule required to request a payout during the Sim Funded stage.
What Are the Maximum Payout Requests in the Sim Funded Stage?

Summary

Building the $3,100 payout buffer to begin receiving fast daily payouts under the 90/10 profit split.
