How do LucidPro payouts work?

General Information

To be approved for a payout your trading activity in each LucidPro Account must not violate any of our Trading Rules, Terms & Conditions, or LucidPro Account Agreement. You cannot edit or cancel submitted payout requests.

Profit Split

Traders receive 100% of the first $10,000 in payouts they receive from Lucid Trading funded accounts. After that, a 90% profit split to the trader will be applied to all funded account payouts.

Payout Requirements

All the following criteria must be met to be eligible for the first payout. After your first and each subsequent payout, the criteria reset and must be met again to request another payout.

Minimum Days Traded

Traders must place at least one trade for a minimum of ten (10) Trading Days before being eligible for a payout. For a day to be counted, at least one trade must be placed between 6:00 PM EST and 4:45 PM EST the next day. The trading day count resets to zero after every payout.

Days with Minimum Profit

For each payout request, you must make a minimum amount of profit on at least five (5) separate trading days. The amount of profit varies by account size.

Account Size

Minimum Profit

$50,000

$200

$100,000

$250

$150,000

$300

The days with minimum profit count resets to zero after every payout.

Consistency Percentage

Your largest single day profit must less than or equal to the 35% Consistency Percentage. After each approved payout, the Consistency Percentage calculation is reset. Traders must meet 35% consistency on profits earned for each payout cycle. Please read our Consistency Percentage documentation in the Rules section.

Profit Over Buffer Balance

All LucidPro accounts have a buffer balance. The buffer is the amount of profit a trader must make and maintain before requesting a payout. Traders cannot request payouts that draw into the buffer. The buffer acts as a safety net so that a payout does not bring a trader into their Maximum Loss Limit which would liquidate their LucidPro Account. The buffer balance is equal to the LucidPro Account initial Max Loss Limit plus $100.

Account Size

Buffer Balance

$50,000

$52,100

$100,000

$103,100

$150,000

$154,600

Note: If you take a trade that would cause your payout request to draw into the buffer before the payout has finished processing, your payout request will be denied.

Payout Minimums and Maximums

Traders can request a payout from any profits over the buffer up to the Max Payout Limit. Our Payout Limit scales up with each subsequent payout request. See the table below.

Account Size

Payouts 1 & 2

Payouts 3 & 4

Payouts 5 & 6

$50,000

$1,500

$2,500

$3,500

$100,000

$2,000

$3,000

$4,000

$150,000

$3,000

$4,000

$5,000

The payout minimum is $500 regardless of account size.

Payout Window

Lucid Trading does not have a payout window. Traders are permitted to request a payout any day of the week once they have met the necessary objectives. Funds will be deducted from your account the day your payout request has been approved. We will initiate the disbursement of funds to your account within 2 business days of approval.

Amount Moved Live

When a trader is moved live from a LucidPro account, all of your simulated account profits will be used to calculate your LucidLive starting balance. There is no hard cap on the amount moved live from LucidPro accounts.
