Payout rules
Payout requests are made in GROSS terms: the trader's 80% share is applied at payment, so a $1,000 gross request pays $800 to the wallet. Payouts are sent only in USDT on BNB Smart Chain to a bound payout wallet; an address already bound to a different trader is refused. Identity verification is required before a funded account is activated.
Trading rules
Per-trade risk is capped at 3% in evaluation and 2% when funded, measured live across all positions on the same instrument in the same direction including partial closes; reaching the cap fails the account. Each evaluation stage requires profitable days rather than minimum trading days: 7 on One-Step, 4 on each Two-Step stage, where a profitable day is realized net profit of at least 0.5% of the initial balance. Intra-account hedging is allowed but cross-account hedging is prohibited. Zeno publishes no third-party trading platform: trading is on its own in-house dashboard, which is why 'platforms' is recorded as a verified absence.
