Qualification
Choose a plan size from $25,000 to $150,000. Every size begins at Phase 1 and is measured against the same standard. Completing a phase is not a formality. It is how a professional record begins, and how it is paid.
What is expected
The specifications below define the boundaries. They do not define what it takes to trade well within them. Traders who complete all four phases tend to share the same characteristics, and none of them are about being right more often.
If that describes how you already trade, the specifications below will read as reasonable. If it does not, they will read as obstacles.

The plan fee is the same on every platform. Market data and platform costs are included through Phase 4. You are choosing an execution environment, not a tier.
Phase payouts are fixed amounts, paid on completing each phase. Profit beyond the target does not increase the payout. The payout must be requested and completed before the next phase begins, and each new phase starts with a fresh balance.
The Live account is sized separately from the plan. Its balance is real capital traded on the exchange, not notional. Once live, platform and market data fees are deducted from the account balance monthly.
Positions may be opened at any point within the Globex trading window. Regular trading hours are shown for reference only. All positions are closed automatically at 1555 CST each weekday and cannot be held overnight or over a weekend. On news: a position opened before a scheduled high-impact release may be carried through it, and pre-defined stops triggering inside the restricted window are not a violation. What is not permitted is opening a new position within three minutes either side of a red-folder release, as marked high impact on the Forex Factory calendar. A single trade inside the window may have its profit removed; repeated trading into releases can result in a pass being denied or the account being closed.
In practice
The loss threshold sits 5% below your account's highest end-of-day balance. As the account grows on a closing basis, the threshold follows it upward. It never moves back down.
Once the account closes 5% above its starting balance, the threshold locks there permanently.
Your best single trading day must be no more than 25% of total profit in the phase, measured as best day divided by total.
It is not a breach rule. The account stays open; keep trading until the ratio comes back within range.
Complete a phase and request its payout. Know Your Customer verification and the Trader Agreement are completed before the first request.
The payout is completed before the next phase begins, from a fresh balance.
After Phase 4, the account trades live on the exchange. No profit target, no consistency requirement, no time limit.
The maximum loss is fixed, not trailing. The first withdrawal is on demand; after that, once every 30 days.
Before you apply
These are the conditions traders most often find out about after paying elsewhere. None of them are unusual. All of them are worth knowing first.
