Instant Pilot (from 70% Profit Split)
β For consistent traders ready to scale fast:
Start trading real capital immediatelyβkeep at least 70% of profits.
Daily drawdown: 3% (safer for steady growth).
Best for: Experienced traders who want instant funding + safety nets.
π Max Drawdown (5%) - Trailing
Your Max Drawdown adjusts as your account balance grows, but itβs always based on your highest recorded balanceβnever exceeding your initial balance.
π‘How It Works
Starting Point:
Initial Balance = $100,000
Max Drawdown = 5%
Threshold: $100,000 β 5% = $95,000
If Your Balance Increases:
New Highest Balance = $110,000
New Threshold = $110,000 β 5% = $104,500
But: Your drawdown never exceeds the initial balance ($100,000).
Final Locked Threshold = $100,000
If Your Balance Drops:
Highest Balance = $110,000 β Later drops to $105,000
Threshold stays at $104,500 today (based on the highest recorded balance).
Benefits of Trailing Drawdown
β
Rewards Profits: Your drawdown buffer increases as you grow your account.
β
Safety Net: Even if profits dip, your worst-case loss is capped at 6% of peak balance.
β
No Sudden Breaches: Unlike fixed drawdown, trailing adjusts gradually with your performance.
Trailing Drawdown Calculation Example:
Scenario | Highest Balance | 5% of High | Drawdown Threshold | Locked at Initial? | Status |
Starting Point | $100,000 | $5,000 | $95,000 | No | β Active |
Profit to $110K | $110,000 | $5,500 | $104,500 | Yes ($100K cap) | π Updated |
Balance Drops to $105K | $110,000 | $5,500 | $104,500 | Yes | π Updated |
Profit to $120K | $120,000 | $6,000 | $114,000 | Yes ($100K cap) | π Updated |
Balance Drops to $98K | $120,000 | $6,000 | $114,000 | β Breached! | β Failed |
Key Takeaways:
Your drawdown "floor" rises with profits but never exceeds the initial balance.
In the last row: A drop to $98K breaches the $100K initial cap β Account fails.
Safety Tip: Always monitor your current equity vs. threshold!

π Daily Drawdown (up to 3%) - Trailing
Your daily loss limit is 3% of the previous dayβs closing balance (or equity, whichever is higher). If your equity drops below this threshold at any point during the day, it violates the rule.
How Itβs Calculated:
Record Yesterdayβs Closing Balance/Equity
Example: Day 1 closes at $100,000.
Calculate 3% of That Value
$100,000 Γ 3% = $3,000
β Daily loss limit.
Set Todayβs Threshold
$100,000 β $3,000 = **$97,000**
β Lowest allowed equity today.
Check Real-Time Equity
If your equity hits $96,999 during the day β Violation.
Note: Open trades count toward this!
Example Scenario:
Day | Previous Close | 3% Limit | Todayβs Threshold | Lowest Equity Today | Status |
Day 1 | $100,000 | $3,000 | $97,000 | $97,500 | β Safe |
Day 2 | $102,000 | $3,060 | $98,940 | $99,200 | β Safe |
Day 3 | $99,200 | $2,976 | $96,224 | $96,100 | β Breached |
Day 4 | (Account Paused β Rule Violation) |

πKey Rules:
Trailing Logic: The threshold resets daily based on the prior close.
Open Positions Count: Unrealized losses affect your equity in real-time.
Weekends/Holidays: No trading = no daily drawdown check.
Pro Tip: Use a stop-loss strategy to stay safely above the threshold!
β
Prevents Emotional Tilt: Hard stop on daily losses.
β
Adapts to Growth: Higher balances = larger $ buffers.
β
Clear Math: No surprises β always 3% of yesterdayβs close.

π° Payout Cycle (Bi-Weekly)
Withdrawal Windows:
1st Window: 13th β 15th
2nd Window: 25th β 27th
Minimum Withdrawal: $100 profit required.
πΈ Profit Split (Up to 90%)
Starts at 70% profit split, increases by 10% per successful payout, up to 90%.
Example: Your first payout = 60%, second = 70%, third = 80%, fourth (and beyond) = 90%.
To withdraw, your account must show at least 3% growth since the last payout.
Example: If your last payout balance was $10,500, you need $10,815 to request a new withdrawal.
β $10,800? No withdrawal allowed.
Example:
(Starting Balance: $10,000 | 3% Growth Required for Each Payout)
Payout # | Profit Split | Min. Growth Required | New Balance Needed | Actual Balance | Eligible? | Payout Amount (70-90%) |
1 | 70% | $10,000 β $10,300 | $10,300 | $10,400 | β Yes | $280 ($400 Γ 70%) |
2 | 80% | $10,300 β $10,609 | $10,609 | $10,700 | β Yes | $320 ($400 Γ 80%) |
3 | 90% | $10,609 β $10,927 | $10,927 | $10,900 | β No | - (Needs $10,927) |
4 | 90% | $10,927 β $11,255 | $11,255 | $11,300 | β Yes | $405 ($450 Γ 90%) |

π’ 40% Consistency Rule Calculation
π’ 40% Consistency Rule Calculation
Formula:
Consistency Ratio (CR) = (Largest Single Trade Profit Γ· Total Profit) Γ 100
Example:
Total Profit = $5,000
Largest Trade Profit = $2,500
CR = ($2,500 Γ· $5,000) Γ 100 = 50% β Violation (Must be β€40%)
π‘How to Fix It?
Continue trading until your largest trade is β€40% of total profits.
Example: Earn $1,000 more β New Total Profit = $6,000
CR = ($2,500 Γ· $6,000) Γ 100 = 41.6% (Still high? Keep trading!)
Total Profit | Largest Trade | CR (%) | Status |
$5,000 | $2,500 | 50% | β Violation |
$6,000 | $2,500 | 41.6% | β οΈ Close |
$7,000 | $2,500 | 35.7% | β Pass |
Why This Matters:
Ensures consistent trading (not reliant on one lucky trade).
Flexible: Adjustable via trading activity or account selection.
