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
  • Trailing drawdown across all evaluation programs (EOD on most, Intraday on S2F Sim PRO); consistency rules on Challenge (25%), Instant Sim Funded (20%), IGNITE (15%); monthly subscription billing on Elite Challenge/Daily (not one-time); $500 minimum payout; max payout per request capped ($750 on $25K, $1,500 on $100K Elite Daily); 50% payout-progression rule after first payout; required buffer remains in account ($1,500–$3,000 by size); newer firm launched April 2025.
