Trading Rules
Profit Split 90% Best 90% flat, no tiered system (Zero/Premium/Advanced)
Daily Drawdown No Daily Loss Limit on any evaluation account (ORIGIN or DAILY). Funded: ORIGIN has none at any size. INSTANT has none at $25K, then $1,200 ($50K), $2,100 ($100K) and $3,000 ($150K). DAILY has none at $25K, then $1,000 ($50K), $1,500 ($100K) and $2,000 ($150K). Reaching the Daily Loss Limit is a soft breach: trading is paused for the session and resumes when the next session opens at 6:00 PM ET. None (Premium/Advanced), 2% soft Daily Loss Guard (Zero only - locks account until next trading day 6PM ET, does not close account)
Payout Frequency On demand
No fixed payout window: a request can be submitted any day, any time once the account's eligibility criteria are met. DAILY funded accounts can request a withdrawal every trading day. ORIGIN requires the account's minimum daily profit on 5 separate trading days per cycle, INSTANT requires the cycle payout profit goal with a consistency percentage of 25% or less.
Up to 4 times a month
Eligible for a withdrawal request after every 5 winning trading days of $200+ profit (non-consecutive allowed); processed within 48 business hours

Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • 90/10 profit split from the very first withdrawal on every programme, with no ramp-up period, no introductory rate and no milestone required. One-time fee per account with no monthly subscription and no rebilling, and no activation fee when an evaluation converts to a funded account. 24-hour payout guarantee: 10FOUR states that if an eligible payout is not processed within 24 business hours the trader keeps 100% of that payout. No fixed payout window, so a request can be submitted any day once eligibility is met, and the DAILY programme allows a withdrawal every trading day from a $250 minimum. No daily loss limit at all during evaluation, and no consistency rule on funded ORIGIN and DAILY accounts. An unusually detailed published rulebook on Intercom covering drawdown mechanics, scaling tiers, consistency and payout objectives per programme, plus a full per-symbol commission table. A documented Path to Live programme that moves consistent traders onto real capital with daily payouts.
  • 3 live account types (Zero/Premium/Advanced), Maximum Loss Limit is EOD trailing and stops trailing once it reaches the starting balance (never resets to $0 on withdrawal), 90% flat profit split from day one on all plans, on-demand payouts up to 4x/month after 5 winning days of $200+, industry-large withdrawal caps (up to $15,000/request on Advanced), Zero plan has $0 activation fee permanently and no consistency rule on evaluation (can pass in 1 day)
Main Drawbacks
  • No overnight or swing positions on simulated accounts: every position must be closed by 4:45 PM ET Monday to Friday. Hedging is banned outright, including across accounts held at other prop firms, and repeated violations can mean permanent restriction. High-frequency trading is never permitted, and bots, EAs and VPS use require prior disclosure plus proof that the strategy is solely yours. Microscalping is policed by automated systems: at least 50% of trades must be held longer than 10 seconds and at least 50% of profit must come from those trades. Only two platforms are offered, CQG Desktop and TradingView, the choice is locked in at checkout and cannot be switched once a trade is placed, and the TradingView route needs a paid Essential plan bought by the trader. 10FOUR is unavailable in 75+ jurisdictions for regulatory reasons. The firm publishes no founding date and names no founders, and its operator Ten Four Group is a Hong Kong entity that states it is not a broker, investment firm or financial services provider. The help centre and the live product catalogue disagree on the $25K and $50K ORIGIN and DAILY loss limits ($1,000/$2,000 versus $1,250/$2,500) and on DAILY evaluation prices, an unresolved legacy-versus-current split. The TrustPilot profile is unclaimed and carries a single 1-star review. The in-house copy trader is marked unavailable as of the firm's own August 2026 update.
  • Zero plan carries a 2% Daily Loss Guard on evaluation and a 40% consistency rule on the Qualified stage; Premium/Advanced Qualified accounts require a $149 one-time activation fee (Premium traders can instead pay a higher monthly evaluation rate to waive it); reset fees required to retry a failed evaluation; legacy Standard plan (tiered 70/80/90% split) was retired May 1, 2026 and is no longer for sale
