As part of our ongoing efforts to improve your trading experience, we are making several important updates that will take effect starting March 17th, 2025. These changes are designed to make your trading journey more consistent, rewarding, and aligned with the latest industry standards. Below, we will walk you through each update in detail so you can better understand how they will impact your account and trading experience.
1. Increased Consistency Buffer on Evaluations
One of the most significant changes we are introducing is an increase in the consistency buffer for evaluations. The consistency margin of error will now be increased from 1% to 3%. This means you’ll have a larger margin to remain consistent with your trades throughout the evaluation phase.
Why This Change?
We are introducing this adjustment to provide traders with a more favorable and supportive environment, allowing you to focus on developing and refining your trading skills without worrying about a narrow consistency threshold. By increasing this buffer, we also position ourselves as an industry leader in terms of trader-friendly evaluation criteria.
This policy applies to evaluation accounts only and is designed to give you greater flexibility as you work toward becoming a funded trader.
2. Updated Drawdown Policy
In response to your feedback, we’ve decided to update how we handle the drawdown for both evaluation and funded accounts. Starting March 17th, 2025, drawdown will now be calculated at the End of Day (EOD), rather than at the end of each position intraday. This means that your drawdown limits will be assessed at the close of each trading day rather than in real-time while positions are open.
Why This Change?
This update aims to offer more clarity and consistency, providing a more standardized approach for both evaluation and funded accounts. Many traders have requested a more structured drawdown policy, and we believe that transitioning to an EOD calculation will better reflect your trading performance over a full day’s activity.
3. Pricing Adjustments for Premium Plans
We’re also adjusting the pricing for several of our premium plans. These adjustments reflect our commitment to offering the best value to traders while maintaining the flexibility that makes our platform unique. Our new End-of-Day (EOD) trader path will be launched soon with more competitive pricing, ensuring you can access the program at a lower upfront cost.
Revised Pricing:
Account Size | Original Eval | Revised Eval | Original Reset | Revised Reset |
$50,000 | $150 | $179 | $50 | $85 |
$100,000 | $200 | $259 | $120 | $130 |
$150,000 | $300 | $349 | $190 | $175 |
We are also discontinuing the 250k account option. Our new pricing structure is designed to remain competitive while offering high-value benefits, such as no activation fee and more favorable trading conditions for all account sizes.
4. Revised Payout Caps
Another key update involves payout caps. We are introducing a revised payout structure where payouts will now be capped at $10,000 per account per payout. Additionally, the overall payout limit per user will remain at $50,000 before transitioning to live trading.
Why This Change?
This adjustment is aimed at encouraging sustainable, consistent trading over the long term, rather than focusing on quick, unsustainable gains. Account recycling practices are often a concern in the prop trading industry, and by limiting the maximum payout per account, we ensure that traders are incentivized to engage in genuine, consistent trading.
To give you some context, competitors like TopStep and Tradeify offer a maximum payout of $25,000 and $15,000 across multiple accounts. We are setting the bar higher with a $40,000 payout in a single transaction, which is considerably more than our competitors.
Important Note:
This new cap will apply only to users with funded accounts created after March 17th, 2025. Any funded accounts created before this date will continue under the previous payout structure. If a user creates a funded account after March 17th then they will be under the new structure.
5. Adjusted Profit Split
Starting April 1st, 2025, we are adjusting our profit split structure. All payouts will follow a 90/10 split, aligning with industry standards. The first $15,000 in profits will remain at 100% payout for current users until April 1st. After that, the 90/10 split will be fully enforced.
Why This Change?
The adjusted profit split ensures that both the company and the trader benefit equally from success.
