Important clarification
Profitability during evaluation does not by itself create payout eligibility. Payout eligibility begins only if a trader is approved into Real Prop and satisfies the active payout conditions.
Overview
At PropShopTrader, traders do not earn payouts during the Gladiator evaluation phase under the Benchmark model.
Instead, traders progress through evaluation and may become eligible for Real Prop consideration after completing the required Benchmarks.
If approved for Real Prop, traders may receive a signing bonus and become eligible for payouts under the active Real Prop structure.
How the earning process works
1. Gladiator
During Gladiator:
Traders work toward Benchmarks
Traders are evaluated on consistency and rule adherence
Traders do not request Gladiator payouts under the current Benchmark model
2. Real Prop consideration
After the required Benchmarks are completed on an account, the trader may be reviewed for Real Prop.
That review may include:
Consistency
Longevity
Compliance behavior
Overall risk management
3. Real Prop payouts
If approved into Real Prop, the trader may become eligible for:
the current signing bonus structure
the current payout split
payout requests subject to the firm’s active rules, compliance checks, and review standards
Compliance notice
Signing bonuses, payout eligibility, and Real Prop approval are all subject to current program rules, internal review, compliance review, and any other standards applied by the firm.
