Choice uses an end-of-day trailing drawdown. The floor moves with your highest end-of-day balance and eventually locks at $100 above the account's starting balance. Touching the current floor at any time closes the account.
Drawdown by stage
Account | Evaluation | Daily Pay funded | Weekly Pay funded |
$25K | $1,000 | $1,000 | $1,000 |
$50K | $2,000 | $2,000 | $2,000 |
$100K | $3,000 | $2,500 | $3,000 |
$150K | $4,500 | $3,500 | $4,500 |
Daily Pay has a tighter drawdown than the evaluation on $100K and $150K accounts. Weekly Pay keeps the evaluation's drawdown amount.
End-of-day calculation, continuous enforcement
The initial floor is the starting balance minus the drawdown. New end-of-day balance highs can raise it; losses do not lower it. Intraday profit highs do not move the floor, but the current floor remains enforceable throughout the session.
$50K example: With $2,000 drawdown, the floor starts at $48,000. If the highest closing balance reaches $51,000, the floor rises to $49,000. When it reaches $52,100, the floor locks at $50,100.
Funded floor lock
On either payout path, the floor locks at starting balance plus $100 once the highest closing balance reaches starting balance plus that path's drawdown plus $100, or when you take a payout. Once locked, it stays there.
The drawdown floor and Daily Pay payout cushion are different: the floor is the account-closing level; the cushion determines how much profit must remain after a Daily Pay withdrawal.
Profit since your last payout
This rule applies to both Daily Pay and Weekly Pay. After your first payout, you must earn at least $1 in net profit since your last payout before requesting another.
Calculate it as your current balance minus the balance immediately after your previous payout. Recover any losses first. For example, if your balance after a payout is $52,000, it must reach at least $52,001 to meet this requirement. You must still meet all other requirements for your payout path, including its minimum request.
Before your first payout, profit is measured from the funded account’s starting balance, and your path’s first-payout requirements apply.
Once funded
The account starts fresh at its original size.
You keep 90% of each approved payout from the first dollar. Request minimums and caps are before the split.
No funded consistency rule and no contract scaling. Contract limits remain the same as the evaluation.
Up to five funded accounts per trader, in any mix of payout paths.
Standard FFF trading, inactivity and prohibited-conduct rules still apply.
