The 6 Rules. Explained Properly.

Read each one. Ask questions in Discord if anything is unclear.

01

Profit Target

Make 20% profit within 30 days.

Your account must grow by 20% from its starting value before the 30-day window closes. This is the only target you need to hit during the evaluation. Once funded, this rule no longer applies.

Worked example

Account size:
$25,000
Target profit:
$5,000 (20%)
Target balance:
$30,000
Time to hit it:
30 days
Day you hit $30,000 →
evaluation passed ✅
Day 31 without hitting it →
evaluation expired ❌

Do I need to hit exactly 20% or can I go over?

You can go over. 20% is the minimum. There is no maximum profit limit during evaluation.

02

Maximum Drawdown

Never lose more than 10% from your highest balance.

This is a trailing drawdown — it follows your peak balance up, never down. The moment your account hits a new high, your floor rises with it. If your account ever falls 10% below your peak balance, your evaluation ends immediately.

Worked example

Start:
$25,000 → Floor: $22,500
Grows to:
$27,000 → Floor rises to: $24,300
Falls to:
$25,000 → Floor stays at: $24,300
Falls to:
$24,200 → ⚠️ Only $100 above floor
Falls to:
$24,300 → ❌ Breach. Evaluation over.
Key rule: Your floor only moves UP — never down. Once your peak rises, the floor rises with it. It never resets.

What happens to my drawdown floor after I make a withdrawal?

Your floor decreases by the same amount as your withdrawal. Example: Peak $5,500 → Floor $4,950. Withdraw $500 → New peak $5,000 → New floor $4,500.

Time Limit

Hit your profit target within 30 days.

Your evaluation runs for exactly 30 calendar days from the date of your first trade. If you haven't hit the 20% profit target by day 30, the evaluation expires. You can restart at a discounted rate.

Worked example

First trade placed:
June 1
Evaluation expires:
July 1
Days remaining shown:

Double Time add-on: extends to 60 days

Does the clock start when I buy the evaluation or when I place my first trade?

The clock starts on your FIRST TRADE, not on purchase. You can buy today and start when you're ready.

04

Consistency Rule

No single market can make up more than 10% of your total realized profits.

This rule exists to prevent passing on one lucky trade. You need to show edge across multiple markets, not one big win. It only applies to REALIZED profits (closed positions) — not open positions.

Worked example

Total realized profits:
$3,000
Maximum from one market:
$300 (10%)
Market A profits:
$280 ✅ (9.3% — within limit)
Market B profits:
$350 ❌ (11.7% — over limit)
⚠️ Warning triggered

Consistency breach triggers a WARNING, not an automatic evaluation end. You have time to rebalance across other markets before requesting payout.

Consistency Upgrade: raises cap to 20%

Cost: +80% of your evaluation fee

Add at checkout

What if one market just happens to be my best performer — am I penalized?

You're not penalized automatically. You just need to build profits in other markets to bring that percentage down before you hit the profit target.

05

Price Range

Only trade markets priced between 20¢ and 80¢ at entry.

Markets priced below 20¢ or above 80¢ carry extreme binary risk — they're essentially near-certain outcomes with little information edge available. This rule keeps trading focused on genuinely uncertain markets where skill matters most. The price is checked at the moment you enter the trade, not after.

Worked example

Market at 34¢ YES
→ ✅ Eligible
Market at 78¢ YES
→ ✅ Eligible (just within)
Market at 81¢ YES
→ ❌ Ineligible (over 80¢)
Market at 19¢ YES
→ ❌ Ineligible (under 20¢)
Market at 20¢ YES
→ ✅ Eligible (exactly 20¢)
Blocked

Blocked
20¢80¢100¢

What if a market moves out of range after I've already entered?

Your existing position is not affected. The rule only applies at entry. Once you're in, you can hold regardless of where the price moves.

06

Resolve Period

Markets must resolve within 60 days of your trade entry.

Your evaluation window is 30 days. We allow markets resolving up to 60 days from your entry to give you flexibility on longer-dated contracts. Markets resolving after 60 days from your entry date are ineligible and won't count toward your P&L.

Worked example

Trade entered:
June 1
Max resolution date:
July 31 (60 days)
Market resolves June 15
→ ✅ Counts
Market resolves July 30
→ ✅ Counts
Market resolves August 1
→ ❌ Excluded (61 days — over limit)

How do I know if a market will resolve in time?

Your market browser only shows eligible markets by default. Ineligible markets are greyed out with a 'Resolves too late' badge.

See exactly where your floor is and what happens when you withdraw.

Your Drawdown Floor
$22,500
Peak Balance ($25,000) × 90% = $22,500

Your account must never fall below this number. If it does, your evaluation ends immediately.

Floor $22,500
Current $25,000
Peak $25,000
Key rule: Your drawdown floor only moves UP — never down. Once your peak balance rises, your floor rises with it. The floor never resets, even if your balance falls.
