How the Scaling Plan Works
Shark Trader Status
Once a trader reaches Funded Trader status and completes:
10 successful reward payouts
A total accumulated profit of 20%
their capital allocation will increase by 100%.
Scaling Benefits
Eligible traders may receive:
Increased capital allocation
Access to advanced trading tools & research
On-demand rewards for financial flexibility
Up to 100% reward split (as applicable)
Potential access to higher capital limits, up to $2,000,000
Trading conditions customized to the trader’s strategy
Risk-Based Capital Allocation
Scaling decisions are based on risk-adjusted performance, not just raw profit.
This means:
Traders with better risk control may receive more capital
Consistency and discipline matter more than aggressive trading
Scaling is not guaranteed and is performance-dependent
Important Scaling Rules
Scaling is always calculated based on the initial account size
If multiple accounts are merged, scaling is still based on the original account size, not the merged total
Scaling eligibility is reviewed by the Risk Management Team
Shark Funded reserves the right to adjust or revoke scaling based on performance or rule violations
Final Note on Scaling
Scaling is a reward, not an entitlement.
It is offered to traders who demonstrate long-term sustainability, professionalism, and strong risk management.
