Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • Flat 90% profit split from the first dollar with no threshold or tiers; single-phase evaluation with no minimum trading days; soft-breach system closes the offending trade instead of the account (two soft breaches before a hard breach); crypto, CFD and futures under one firm; no minimum payout size.
  • Powered by ThinkMarkets, a multi-regulated globally trusted broker. Three evaluation paths: one-step Lightning, two-step Dual-Step (Intraday or Swing), three-step Nexus. 80% profit split upgradeable to 90% with scaling or add-on. Bi-weekly payouts with 7-day add-on option. TradingView integration and ThinkTrader platform. Maximum allocation up to $1,000,000.
Main Drawbacks
  • Trailing end-of-day drawdown on both the evaluation and the funded account; a hard 30% consistency rule on funded accounts (40% on Rapid); recurring monthly management fee per funded account; futures accounts are intraday only with no hedging; evaluation fees are non-refundable; the site's own pages disagree on the operating jurisdiction (Saint Lucia in the imprint, UAE in the FAQ).
  • Lightning uses 6% trailing drawdown that locks at initial balance only after account grows by 6%. 90% profit split requires scaling or paid add-on. News trading not allowed on Dual-Step Intraday and restricted on Nexus. Swing Dual-Step costs ~40% more than Intraday.
