The Scaling Plan

We don’t just fund you; we grow with you. Our scaling plan is designed to reward consistent, professional traders by exponentially increasing their managed capital every three months.

How to Qualify: To trigger your first scale-up, you must achieve a 10% total return within your first 3 months, with at least 2 of those months being profitable.

The Scaling Journey (Example: $400k Account):

  • Initial Account: $400,000

  • 1st Scale-up (3 Months): Account increases by 25% > $500,000

  • 2nd Scale-up (6 Months): Account balance doubles > $1,000,000

  • 3rd Scale-up (9 Months): Account balance doubles > $2,000,000

  • 4th Scale-up (12 Months): Account balance doubles > $4,000,000

Note: The maximum an account can grow through scaling is 10x the initial account size.


Important Technical FAQs

1. How Static Drawdown Works

In the 3-Phase program, your Max Drawdown is 5% Static. This is a fixed amount based on your initial account balance.

  • Example: On a $100,000 account, your Max Loss is $5,000.

  • The Math: Your account must not drop below $95,000 in equity or balance. Unlike trailing drawdowns, this "floor" stays at $95,000 even if you grow the account to $105,000, effectively increasing your safety buffer as you profit.

2. How Daily Drawdown Works

The Daily Loss Limit is 5%, resetting every day at 5 PM EST based on the previous day’s closing balance.

  • Example A: Prior day’s balance was $100,000. You breach if equity falls to $95,000.

  • Example B: Prior day’s balance was $104,000. You breach if equity falls to $98,800 ($104k – 5%).

3. Withdrawal Impact

When you take a payout, your profit buffer is reduced, but your static drawdown floor remains anchored to your starting balance.

  • Starting Balance: $100,000 (Floor: $95,000).

  • Scenario: You grow the account to $110,000 and withdraw $8,000.

  • Result: Your balance is now $102,000. Your breach level remains at $95,000. You now have a $7,000 buffer remaining.
