Simulated Challenge and Funded Limits
Challenge Phase
Traders can purchase an unlimited number of challenges with no restrictions or caps during the challenge phases.
Funded Phase
Once you reach the Funded Stage, the allocation limit depends on the trading platform:
MT5 Accounts: The maximum funded allocation is capped at $300,000 across all challenge types (Lightning, Dual Step, and Nexus). With our Scaling Plan, traders can grow this allocation up to $1 million.
ThinkTrader Accounts: The maximum funded allocation increases to $600,000 across all challenge types (Lightning, Dual Step, and Nexus). With our Scaling Plan, traders can scale this allocation up to $1.5 million.
If a trader successfully completes challenges that exceed the $300,000 limit on MT5 or the $600,000 limit on ThinkTrader, any additional accounts will be placed on reserve until one of the active funded accounts is no longer active.
Important Note:
If you hold accounts on both MT5 and ThinkTrader, the maximum funded allocation will default to the MT5 cap of $300,000. To unlock the higher cap of $600,000, you must exclusively trade on ThinkTrader-funded accounts.
Account Splitting is Not Allowed: Once you pass an account during evaluation, you cannot divide it into smaller account sizes.
Merging is Not Allowed: Combining multiple accounts into a single account is not permitted.
Platform Switching is Not Permitted: After an account is passed on a specific platform, it must remain on that platform.
