Real talk
What traders actually experience beyond the marketing copy.
Most plan variety. Static drawdown is unique and valuable. Fast Track at $75 is cheapest entry anywhere. But: $87/mo funded fee, 10-second hold time, $25K total sim cap, and the complexity of 6 plan types can be confusing.
6 plan types give real flexibility. Static drawdown (floor never moves) is genuinely unique. 1-Step intraday trailing is harsh. EOD is more forgiving but adds DLL. Safety Net locks drawdown once you profit enough.
100% on first $12.5K is generous. But $87/mo funded fee eats into profits. $25K total sim cap means you transition to live ($2K-$5K starting capital) relatively quickly. 10-second hold rule is enforced.
$87/mo funded fee (one of few firms charging monthly). 10-second minimum hold on ALL trades. $25K total sim payout cap. Fast Track has NO resets and 14-day time limit. After 20% profit growth, losing 35% triggers disqualification.
Three plans for three types of traders. Flex = budget entry. Rapid = best overall (90/10, daily payouts, no consistency). Pro = stable EOD drawdown on funded but 80/20 split and $100K payout cap. Overnight holding allowed on all.
Three very different funded experiences. Flex: EOD but resets to $100 static after first payout (tight). Rapid: switches from EOD to INTRADAY trailing when funded (catches people off guard). Pro: EOD on both eval and funded (most stable).
Rapid has daily payouts (24h cycles) - fastest alongside Lucid. Flex needs 5 winning days. Pro is every 14 days. All have $0 activation. Pro has $100K total cumulative payout cap across ALL Pro accounts.
Rapid drawdown switches from EOD to INTRADAY on funded. Pro has $100K total payout cap. Flex MLL resets to $100 static after first payout. Copy trading PROHIBITED. T1 news restricted on Rapid/Pro funded (allowed on Flex).
