Good to know
Payout rules
Every account carries a lifetime payout cap and closes once it is reached: $15,000 on Futures Growth Plus, $25,000 on Futures Express, Stocks Growth and Stocks Express, $20,000 on Crypto Growth and $25,000 on Crypto Express; the Options table caps the $25K programs at $25,000 and Express 10k at $15,000. Per-cycle caps step up with completed cycles. On Stocks and Options the payout cap is 50% of overall profit per request, with the full 100% payable from payout cycle 7 onward. The rebate applies to Express plans only: the signup fee is returned as part of the first qualifying payout, while the monthly platform and data fee, reset fees and Growth evaluation fees are never rebated, and it is stated as one rebate per customer. Separately, the firm does not issue refunds except where fraudulent activity is involved. No profit-split scaling is published: the split is a flat 80/20 on every program, including Pro Trader Funding. What scales instead is the per-cycle payout ceiling and, on futures Growth Plus, the position size.
Trading rules
Up to 5 accounts are allowed on the futures and crypto programs. The firm states it cannot provide services in certain countries and regions and points to a restricted countries list, which was not located on any page scraped this session. Stocks trading hours are Monday to Friday 3:00 AM CT to 3:00 PM CT. Minimum hold on futures Growth Plus must be met on at least 50% of trades and 50% of profit; options and stocks state a flat 15-second minimum. Beyond the futures position table above, options allow up to 10 contracts per leg on Growth and Express 10k and up to 20 contracts per leg on Express 25K; the help centre states there are NO position size limits on either Stocks program; and crypto is governed by a 0.5% max risk per trade once funded rather than a size cap.
