Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • 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)
  • Trade your own plan from day one. Get your first $10,000 without commissions. Earn up to 90% of your profits. Use the trading terminal for free. Active coupons: $50OFF on $50K tier, $60OFF on $100K tier.
Main Drawbacks
  • 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
  • Monthly subscription pricing (recurring), trailing drawdown only (no separate daily loss cap), minimum account size $25K (no micro accounts), limited to 5 account sizes
