Payouts & withdrawals
What you need for each funded payout
Payout request amount
$250–$1,000
The same cap applies to every payout.
Your payout checklist
- Qualifying days
- 5 profitable days
- Build a fresh set of qualifying days after each approved payout.
- Profit per qualifying day
- Over $100
- Each of those days must exceed this profit amount.
- Balance for every request
- $26,500
- Reach this balance and keep it until your payout is approved.
- Consistency per payout cycle
- 35% maximum
- Your best day's profit must stay within this share of total cycle profit. Resets after approval.
Drawdown, trading hours & payout conditions
- Drawdown updates at the close, but applies all day
- The $1,000 trailing limit is enforced against your balance plus open P&L throughout the session. It locks at $25,100 once the end-of-day balance exceeds $26,100, or when you request a payout, whichever comes first. Touching the floor fails the account. Evaluation drawdown does not lock.
- Daily loss limit pauses trading
- Reaching $600 in daily losses pauses trading until the next session. On current accounts, the limit increases to $1,000 the session after the balance reaches $26,500. Slippage can still breach the trailing drawdown.
- The funded 10-second rule
- Over half of your trades and over half of your profit must come from trades held longer than 10 seconds. Missing either requirement blocks a payout; it does not fail the account. This rule does not apply to the evaluation.
- Trading hours and weekly activity
- Trade within the 6:00 PM–4:45 PM ET session and close before the daily cutoff (12:59 PM ET on holiday half-days). Weekend holding is prohibited. Place at least one trade per Monday–Friday week on each account; inactive accounts may be deleted after an email warning.
- Resets and funded account limits
- Resets are available only during evaluation. A failed funded account must be replaced by purchasing and passing a new evaluation. You may hold up to five simulated funded Growth accounts per household, shared with your standard Select and Lightning accounts.
- After you submit a request
- Requests cannot be edited or cancelled. Keep the qualifying balance and the account active until approval. After approval, payment is issued within 24–48 hours; requests outside business hours may take up to 72 hours.
- Moving to a live account
- There is no fixed payout count that automatically ends Growth. Tradeify may select you for a mandatory Elite Live transition. The live profit split is 80%, and your simulated funded and evaluation accounts close during the transition.
Trading Rules
What's allowed during trading
View conditions
All positions must be closed before Friday's market close (4:45 PM ET); positions cannot be carried from Friday into the Sunday evening session.
View conditions
Bots and algorithms are allowed only if you are the sole owner and sole user of the strategy, do not share it with any other trader or firm, do not run it at any other firm, and can prove ownership on request. Tradeify scans for similar orders on other accounts and may require a live video of you enabling the code on your own PC. HFT bots are excluded. The same four conditions appear in clause 6.6 of the Funded Trader Agreement.
View conditions
Copying or mirroring your own trades across your own accounts is permitted while the positions are in the same direction - "Long ES on Account A + Long ES on Account B = ALLOWED (same direction across accounts - this is how copy trading works)". Copying or mirroring trades between you and any other person, team trading, group trading and third-party account management are strictly prohibited by clause 6.7(b) of the Funded Trader Agreement, and opposite directions across your own accounts remain a hedging violation.
View conditions
A position may be held for the length of one session - 6:00 PM ET to 4:45 PM ET the next calendar day, nearly 23 hours - but never through the daily close or the 5:00-6:00 PM ET maintenance break, on any account type including Elite Live. The article headline reads "No Overnight or Swing Trading" while its own FAQ answers "Can I stay positioned overnight? Yes, within a single trading session", so the rule is a session boundary rather than a clock-midnight ban. Anything still open at the close is auto-flattened by Tradeify, which does not fail the account but can fill badly.
View conditions
No opposing long/short positions on the same instrument or on two products in the same Product Group (Equity Index, Energy, Metals, Currencies, Interest Rates, Grains, Livestock, Volatility), in one account or spread across any accounts you control, and regardless of contract size - a micro leg against a mini leg still counts. Consequence: every account involved set to violation status, forfeiture of profits made during the violation, and possibly a permanent ban. The automated check breaches an account only when the hedge lasts over 10 seconds and generates more than $150; cross-account and correlated-product hedging are reviewed separately by the risk team. Minis and micros may now be held together in the same direction, within a 10 micros = 1 mini contract limit.
