Instant Pilot Account

Balance of safety + instant start

Updated this week

Instant Pilot (from 70% Profit Split)

βœ… For consistent traders ready to scale fast:

  • Start trading real capital immediatelyβ€”keep at least 70% of profits.

  • Daily drawdown: 3% (safer for steady growth).

  • Best for: Experienced traders who want instant funding + safety nets.


πŸ“‰ Max Drawdown (5%) - Trailing

Your Max Drawdown adjusts as your account balance grows, but it’s always based on your highest recorded balanceβ€”never exceeding your initial balance.

πŸ’‘How It Works

  1. Starting Point:

    • Initial Balance = $100,000

    • Max Drawdown = 5%

    • Threshold: $100,000 – 5% = $95,000

  2. If Your Balance Increases:

    • New Highest Balance = $110,000

    • But: Your drawdown never drops below the initial balance ($100,000).

    • Final Locked Threshold = $100,000

  3. If Your Balance Drops:

    • Highest Balance = $110,000 β†’ Later drops to $105,000

    • Final Locked Threshold = $100,000.

Benefits of Trailing Drawdown

βœ… Rewards Profits: Your drawdown buffer increases as you grow your account.
βœ… Safety Net: Even if profits dip, your worst-case loss is capped at 6% of peak balance.
βœ… No Sudden Breaches: Unlike fixed drawdown, trailing adjusts gradually with your performance.

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!


πŸ“‰ Daily Drawdown (3%) - Balance Based

  • Your daily loss limit is 3% of the initial balance. If your equity drops below this threshold at any point during the day, it violates the rule.

How It’s Calculated:

  1. Record Yesterday’s Closing Balance/Equity

    • Example: Day 1 closes at $100,000.

  2. Calculate 3% of That Value

    • $100,000 Γ— 3% = $3,000 β†’ Daily loss limit.

  3. Set Today’s Threshold

    • $100,000 – $3,000 = **$97,000** β†’ Lowest allowed equity today.

  4. Check Real-Time Equity

    • If your equity hits $96,999 during the day β†’ Violation.

    • Note: Open trades count toward this!

**Important to Remember: All trading fees (commissions, swaps, etc.) affect your equity and are counted towards your daily loss and maximum drawdown limits based on your starting balance.

(Account Paused – Rule Violation)

πŸ”‘Key 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!

βœ… Prevents Emotional Tilt: Hard stop on daily losses.
βœ… Adapts to Growth: Higher balances = larger $ buffers.
βœ… Clear Math: No surprises – always 3% of yesterday’s close.

The 3 Golden Rules:

  1. A 3% Growth is Required for Each Payout.
    Before you can request a new withdrawal, your account balance must grow by at least 3% compared to your balance after the last payout (based on previous Minimum Growth Required).

  2. Your Profit Share Only Goes Up.
    Your profit split percentage increases with each successful payout and never decreases. Once you reach the maximum of 90%, you will keep it for all future payouts, even if you withdraw all your profits.

  3. Your Payout Number Determines Your Split.
    Your profit share is based on how many payouts you have successfully received.

The Automated Profit Split Accelerator

Your journey to a 90% profit share is straightforward and automatic. The table below shows how your split increases.

1st Payout

2nd Payout

3rd Payout & All Future Payouts

90%

The Best Part: It's Permanent!


Once you hit the 3rd payout and unlock the 90% profit split, it is yours for life. You will never go back to a lower percentage, even after a withdrawal.


3% Growth Formula:

Next Payout Threshold = Last Payout Balance Γ— 1.03

  • Example: $10,609 Γ— 1.03 = $10,927

Profit Split Calculation:

Payout = (Current Balance - Last Payout Balance) Γ— Profit Split %

  • Example: ($11,300 - $10,927) Γ— 90% = $335.70

Click here for a detailed breakdown of consistency rules and calculations: [see full guidTradersFlow Consistency Rules Guidee]

πŸ”’ 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 ≀40%)

πŸ’‘How to Fix It?

  • Continue trading until your largest trade is ≀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!)
