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)
  • AMP Futures / CQG institutional backend, no daily loss limit on Evaluation, EOD trailing drawdown (closed trade only on funded), 1-day pass possible, 100% profit split after 16 payouts, free daily Discord education, TradingView + CQG support, up to 90% off promo codes
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
  • NinjaTrader not supported, 60-day probation with capped payouts, 30% consistency rule on Instant, simulated environment until ProTrader Live transition, news trading restricted post-evaluation
