Futures Prop Firm Rule Radar
Every night Rule Radar archives the help center of every futures prop firm on the price list and shows exactly what changed: which page, which line, dated, before and after. Payout terms, consistency rules, drawdown math, activation fees: firms rewrite these without an announcement, and this is where you catch it. Updated pages open to the exact wording that changed, every article keeps a full version history you can compare, and a plain-English line on each row says what happened. Nothing here is written by the firms. It is their own help center, read every day and kept. – Jmu (@jmutrades)

Option 1 (Trailing Drawdown)
−
| Account Size | One-Time Fee | Trailing Drawdown | Contract Limit |
|---|---|---|---|
| $25,000 | $338 | $1,000 | 3 minis (30 micros) |
| $50,000 | $488 | $2,250 | 7 minis (70 micros) |
| $100,000 | $648 | $4,000 | 12 minis (120 micros) |
| $150,000 | $788 | $5,500 | 15 minis (150 micros) |
Option 2 (EOD Drawdown / No scaling)
−
| Account Size | One-Time Fee | EOD Drawdown | Daily Loss Limit | Contract Limit |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $25,000 | $338 | $1,000 | no daily loss limit | 2 minis (20 micros) |

| $100,000 | $648 | $4,000 | $2,500 | 8 minis (80 micros) |
| $150,000 | $788 | $5,500 | $3,300 | 12 minis (120 micros) |
1 mini = 10 micros.
Both options share the same risk logic. Option 1 uses the trailing drawdown. Option 2 uses the end-of-day drawdown together with a daily loss limit and has no scaling plan.
On both options the drawdown follows the balance upward and then stops for good once it reaches the starting balance plus $100. From that point it is a fixed floor and no longer moves.
On Option 2 the daily loss limit stays active for the whole life of the account and is never lifted. The $25,000 Option 2 account is the exception: it has no daily loss limit.

We split that step out and call it the Buffer Zone. It is where you build the balance that carries into your Sim Funded account, and it is deliberately gentler than the evaluation you just passed: a smaller target and no daily loss limit.
| Account size | Profit target | Drawdown | Consistency | Largest single day |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 25K | $1,500 | $1,200 Trailing (EOD) | 34% | $510 (34% of target) |
| 50K | $3,000 | $2,000 Trailing (EOD) | 34% | $1,020 (34% of target) |
| 100K | $3,500 | $2,500 Trailing (EOD) | 34% | $1,190 (34% of target) |
| 150K | $2,000 | $-1,000 Static | 34% | $680 (34% of target) |
| 200K | $3,000 | $-2,000 Static | 34% | $1,020 (34% of target) |
| 300K | $3,500 | $-2,500 Static | 21% | $735 (21% of target) |
And if you fail it, you reset the Buffer Zone on its own. Your evaluation still stands — you never go back to the beginning. Resets are $250 each for the first three, then $300 for resets four to six, $350 for seven to nine, and so on. If your Buffer Zone had already passed into Sim Funded, a reset is $500. These are the Propel Buffer Zone reset prices.
Phase 3 — Sim Funded
Your account is still simulated, but the profits are real and you can withdraw them. There is no profit target here — the job is to keep trading well.

Payouts can be requested daily, Monday to Friday, on any balance above your starting balance. Requests made before 11am ET are processed the same trading day. While Sim Funded, stop trading for the day once you are $5,000 up and for the week once you are $10,000 up — passing $10,000 in total profit triggers a review for Live Brokerage, where the caps come off entirely.
Nothing is charged during this phase. Your subscription ended at the evaluation.
How the consistency rule works
The consistency rule keeps your biggest day in proportion to the rest of your trading. We compare your largest single profitable day against the sum of your profitable days. Losing days are left out of the calculation entirely — many firms divide by your net profit instead, which shrinks the number you are measured against and makes the rule harder to satisfy.
Here is a week counted both ways. Say you made $1,000 on Monday, $900 on Tuesday, lost $600 on Wednesday, then made $900 on Thursday and $600 on Friday:
- At BluSky we add up your profitable days: $1,000 + $900 + $900 + $600 = $3,400. Your biggest day of $1,000 is 29.4% of that — inside the 34% rule. ✅
- Counting net profit instead subtracts the losing day: $3,400 − $600 = $2,800. The same $1,000 day is now 35.7% — outside the same rule. ❌
The 300K works to a 21% rule instead, so the same week would need your profit spread across more days to comply.
Being out of consistency does not fail your account. It is checked when you request a payout or try to pass a phase, and you fix it by trading on — every additional profitable day grows the total you are measured against and brings your percentage down.
Resetting a Propel evaluation
Most traders do not pass first time. A reset clears the days traded, the balance and the rules by creating a fresh evaluation account, so you can try again without buying a new plan.

| 150K | $150,000 | $4,500 | $4,500 net profit | $154,500 | $500 | $3,000 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 200K | $200,000 | $3,000 | $3,000 net profit | $203,000 | $500 | $2,500 |
Your drawdown stops moving once you have earned it back. The floor trails your closed daily profit dollar-for-dollar, and once your lifetime net profit matches your starting drawdown it locks permanently at your starting balance. From that point the account cannot fail below breakeven.
A 40% consistency rule applies while Sim Funded, and payouts become available every three trading days once your balance is above the threshold in the table above.
How the consistency rule works
The consistency rule keeps your biggest day in proportion to the rest of your trading. We compare your largest single profitable day against the sum of your profitable days. Losing days are left out of the calculation entirely — many firms divide by your net profit instead, which shrinks the number you are measured against and makes the rule harder to satisfy.
Here is a week counted both ways. Say you made $1,400 on Monday, $900 on Tuesday, lost $900 on Wednesday, then made $900 on Thursday and $400 on Friday:
- At BluSky we add up your profitable days: $1,400 + $900 + $900 + $400 = $3,600. Your biggest day of $1,400 is 38.9% of that — inside the 40% rule. ✅
- Counting net profit instead subtracts the losing day: $3,600 − $900 = $2,700. The same $1,400 day jumps to 51.9% — outside the same rule. ❌
Being out of consistency does not fail your account. It is checked when you request a payout or try to pass a phase, and you fix it by trading on — every additional profitable day grows the total you are measured against and brings your percentage down.

PremierE8 Markets · Thomas Gibbs promotion | E8 Markets Help Center FuturesRemoved description of AI chatbot feature trained on Tom Gibbs' interviews and background.Aug 11

What the page said before and after
Before
GIBSS promo has officially ended and is available only for users who purchased an account with code "GIBBS" before the 20.04.2026 and keep the promo active by purchasing at least one account every 30 days with the discount code "GIBBS".
In his early 20s, before Thomas Gibbs became a record payout holder at E8, he was sitting in grief, pressure, doubt, and the weight of his own habits. After losing a close friend to leukemia, he quit his job prematurely to pursue trading, only to end up working construction and accounting just to survive. He was stuck in a "Survival Season," caught between the life he had and the one he knew he could build.
Read the Full Story, Interviews, and Journey of Tom Gibbs Here
The shift happened when Tom stopped hunting "magic" strategies and started mastering himself. By limiting his focus to five pairs and one trade per day, he turned a humble $414.95 proof-of-concept into a $116,000 payout, eventually hitting his record $216,053.13. It wasn't the market that changed - it was his discipline.
Tom isn't a "get-rich-quick" story. He is a lesson in pure persistence. After six years of being battered by the markets, he proved that professional results require professional habits. Whether you are in your own "Survival Season" or starting to see things click, Tom’s journey shows exactly what it takes to reach the top.

A refund of the initial fee is possible if:
- You are on phase 1 of your challenge, and there is no trading activity on the account you have purchased
- The account is not older than 30 days from the date of initial purchase
If you begin trading on your challenge, on one of our offered models, you are no longer eligible to request a refund.
How to receive a refund
You can request your refund by contacting our support at
All refunds are issued through the original payment method. This process usually takes 2-5 business days for the funds to arrive in your bank account.
If you have chosen the cryptocurrency payment option, we are unfortunately unable to process a refund, even though you did not place any trades on your account. The reason is strict AML (Anti-Money Laundering) security measures. To avoid legal issues, we had to stop processing crypto refunds at this time.
Also, it is important to note that there is no maximum number of trading days or time limit; however, after 60 days of inactivity, the account is disabled and there is no entitlement to a refund.
Section: How to receive a refund
− To avoid this deactivation, you need to place at least one trade in this period. This applies also to newly purchased accounts on which you did not place any trade.
+ To avoid this deactivation, you need to place and close at least one trade in this period. This applies also to newly purchased accounts on which you did not place any trade.

Before
At this moment, payouts are processed through our third-party providers, such as:
- WorkMarket - this option provides fast bank transfers to your account.
- Rise - With Rise, you have the quickest and most flexible solution for onboarding and making global payments in either cash or cryptocurrency, all accessible from a single platform.
To receive the payout, you need to be allowed to onboard by WorkMarket or Riseworks
- WorkMarket supported countries
- Rise unsupported countries and unsupported States or Territories in the USA
If you can't undergo WorkMarket and Riseworks KYC, we cannot provide you with a payout payment. There are no direct crypto payment solutions, and all payouts can be processed only through our partners.
We don’t charge any commissions or fees for payouts, but the processor of the payouts may charge depending on the option you are using.
How?
Payouts can be requested within the SimFi performance stage directly from the dashboard, as you can see below.
Once you are eligible for a payout, the request payout button will light up. If you are unable to click on it, it is most likely due to not fulfilling all your requirements. For such an unfinished objective, you will see the status as "pending" in the Payout overview within your dashboard.
Please note that the minimum payout that you can request with every product type is $100.
Section: How?
− Amounts are taken from your payout %. Meaning, with 80% payout share, you need to request at least $125.
How fast?
Let's take a look at our two main median payout stats (January 1 – May 1, 2026):
- 11 hours from Payout request to approval by our team (you can start trading after approval)
- 24 hours from payout request to funds arriving in your Rise or Workmarket account
This means that:
- 50% of all payouts are approved within 11 hours
- Payments for 50% of all payouts are received by users within 24 hours
What is important to know is that these are median times. The overall process can also take up to 5 business days sometimes, and the length of the process may depend on various factors such as:
- Day of request (During the weekend, payouts are not being processed)
Section: How fast?
− - Onboarding time of the user (Make sure that everything is done on your side)
- individual characteristics (Rise/Workmarket may request additional information)
Full Process for Payout Request:
- After your request payout, we will send you an invitation link for WorkMarket / Riseworks.io
- When you receive an invitation, you need to sign and fill out the necessary documents like PSA agreements, fill out Tax information, and you might be required to provide additional KYC information like proof of address.
- After everything is processed and approved by our partners, we will send the payment to your Rise/Workmarket account.
What if my Rise/Workmarket accounts are already verified?
− - If this is your first payout and you already have a Rise/WorkMarket account, simply follow the steps via the onboarding link to connect your account on Rise/WorkMarket
− - If you have already received a payout with us before, you can skip the previous steps and simply wait for the payment
The length of time it takes to receive money from the Rise / Workmarket account depends on the payment method you choose. Crypto payments through Rise will be faster than Wire Transfer from Workmarket, for example.
Section: Do I need to leave Buffer in the account when requesting a payout?
− Do I need to leave Buffer when requesting a payout?
− Since the profit you are requesting is being deducted from the account, in certain situations and products, it is crucial to leave a buffer; otherwise, your Dynamic/EOD/Static drawdowns might be affected.
E8 One - Yes, in specific situations, it is better to leave a buffer in the account. There is a dedicated article explaining the whole process. Article.
E8 Pro - Thanks to the built-in payout mechanism on these accounts, there is no need to leave a buffer, and you can always request as much as the account allows you.
Note: Daily Drawdown or Daily Pause is never affected by payout requests. Once the payout is requested, those limits are calculated from your new balance.

Future Participation in the Program
In certain cases, traders may be eligible to participate in the Funded Futures Family program again in the future. Any return to the program must begin through the standard entry path.
If a trader returns after a Professional Stage account closure, participation will begin again through Evaluation accounts under the current program rules.
Previous progression, payout stage status, or prior SIM-funded account history does not carry over. All new accounts begin from the standard starting point defined by the Evaluation process.
Eligibility for future participation may be subject to review by the Risk Management Team to ensure alignment with the program’s trading and risk standards.

GIBSS promo has officially ended and is available only for users who purchased an account with code "GIBBS" before the 20.04.2026 and keep the promo active by purchasing at least one account every 30 days with the discount code "GIBBS".
In his early 20s, before Thomas Gibbs became a record payout holder at E8, he was sitting in grief, pressure, doubt, and the weight of his own habits. After losing a close friend to leukemia, he quit his job prematurely to pursue trading, only to end up working construction and accounting just to survive. He was stuck in a "Survival Season," caught between the life he had and the one he knew he could build.
Read the Full Story, Interviews, and Journey of Tom Gibbs Here
− For the full specification of Thomas Gibbs' promotion, click here.
The shift happened when Tom stopped hunting "magic" strategies and started mastering himself. By limiting his focus to five pairs and one trade per day, he turned a humble $414.95 proof-of-concept into a $116,000 payout, eventually hitting his record $216,053.13. It wasn't the market that changed - it was his discipline.
Tom isn't a "get-rich-quick" story. He is a lesson in pure persistence. After six years of being battered by the markets, he proved that professional results require professional habits. Whether you are in your own "Survival Season" or starting to see things click, Tom’s journey shows exactly what it takes to reach the top.

Our Trader Support Team is here to help. If you have questions about current position limits or how these adjustments affect your trading, please contact support.
- Slippage increases
- Risk management becomes more challenging
- Even well-planned trades can move against you quickly
These temporary adjustments give you the opportunity to participate in volatile markets while managing your risk appropriately.
How You'll Be Notified
When position limits are adjusted, you'll receive notification through:
- Email communication
- Dashboard banners
- Social media updates (@AskTopstep on X)
We'll also notify you when restrictions are lifted and normal position limits are reinstated.

− Traders enrolled in the Trader Career Path® will encounter three types of drawdown at various stages of their trading journey. Traders enrolled in the Gauntlet Mini™ will encounter two types of drawdown at various stages of their trading journey.
− - End-of-Day Drawdown - Calculates and updates your minimum balance based on closed positions at the end of each trading day. It is used in all evaluation accounts and funded LiveSim® accounts.
− - Trailing Drawdown - Calculates and updates your minimum balance continuously, based on both open and closed positions throughout the trading day. It is used in Live accounts.
− - Fixed Drawdown - Sets the minimum balance at a fixed level that never changes. It applies upon reaching the largest funded trading account in the selected Trader Career Path® plan: $200,000 for the TCP25, with the minimum balance fixed at $194,000, and $400,000 for the TCP50 and TCP100, with the minimum balance fixed at $388,000.
− Notes:

Overview of Reserve Account Rules
The Blue Guardian Futures Reserve Challenge is designed for traders who prefer a flexible trading model with no daily loss limits and higher payout potential.
Traders can qualify for funded trading by completing the one-phase evaluation process, reaching the required profit target while complying with all trading rules and risk management requirements.
Below is a complete overview of the rules, trading conditions, and payout requirements for the Reserve account model.
Profit Target
Traders must achieve a 6% profit target on phase 1 while respecting all trading rules and risk limits.
Once the target is reached, the account will undergo a final review. After successful verification, the trader will move forward as a Funded Trader.
Daily Loss Limit
On the Reserve plan, there is no daily loss limit.
It is the trader’s responsibility to manage risk appropriately and trade in a disciplined manner while staying within the account’s overall trailing drawdown rules.
Is there an option to add a Daily Loss Limit to a Reserve Account?
Section: Is there an option to add a Daily Loss Limit to a Reserve Account?
− Yes. We now offer an optional Daily Loss Limit add-on for traders who prefer the Reserve Account but would like the additional protection of a daily loss limit. This add-on can be selected during purchase for those who want an extra layer of risk management while trading.
- $25,000 Account: $600
- $50,000 Account: $1,200
- $100,000 Account: $1,700
- $150,000 Account: $3,000
Maximum Overall Drawdown (EOD)
The Maximum Trailing Drawdown on Reserve Accounts varies depending on the account size and follows an End-of-Day (EOD) trailing model during both the Evaluation and Funded stages.
This means the trailing drawdown only adjusts based on your closed balance at the end of each trading day, allowing traders to better plan their positions and build consistent risk management habits.
Once your trailing drawdown reaches your starting balance, the drawdown will lock and no longer trail.
This locked level becomes your permanent maximum loss limit for the account.
Examples:
- $25,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $26,600
- $50,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $52,100

Section: Which Trading Platforms Does TradeDay use?

→ Click on any of the platforms below to learn more about each one.
- Tradovate
- NinjaTrader
- TradingView & Jigsaw (You will need your own license for each)
Tradovate
Tradovate has proven itself as a fast, reliable, and stable platform. It has all the tools you need to get started and succeed, and it works across MAC OS, Windows, IOS, and Android.
You can also connect your own NinjaTrader, TradingView, and Jigsaw licenses to the Tradovate evaluation.
The platforms run using the CQG data feed.
Click here to get started with Tradovate
NinjaTrader
- You can use a free version of NT8 that will be provided for you by NinjaTrader.
- Or you can use your own Multi-broker license or Single-broker license.
- If you have your own Single broker license it needs to be enabled with NinjaTrader as your broker. If it is enabled with another broker, contact them directly to make this switch or upgrade to a Multibroker license.
Please note that using your own license will not reduce the commission costs. Click here to see commissions.
Our version rides on the more stable CQG data feed and is free for all TradeDay members.
It is also fully integrated with Tradovate - what you do on Ninja will appear on Tradovate, and what you do on Tradovate will appear on Ninja.
This means you can now trade from home on Ninja, and check and make trades on the Tradovate mobile application when you are away from your desk!
Please note that NinjaTrader's own mobile application does not work with the evaluation account.
NinjaTrader users can use their own license, but please note that using your license does not reduce the TradeDay commission costs. Click here to see commissions.
Click here to get started with NinjaTrader
TradingView and Jigsaw
- TradingView is free to connect, but you will need your own TradingView license
- Jigsaw is free to connect but you will need your own Jigsaw LIVE license
TradingView and Jigsaw are two very popular trading tools for day traders.
TradingView and Jigsaw are available on the evaluation or funded account. Our trading platform, Tradovate, has full integration with these two tools.
Section: NinjaTrader
− You will need your own TradingView license and Jigsaw license.
− We have now made TradingView free to connect to Tradovate. Full instructions on how to integrate can be found here.
− Jigsaw is free to integrate with Tradovate, full instructions can be found here.
Please note that on the funded account, if you would like to have Jigsaw and Tradovate opened at the same time, you will need 2 separate data feeds to run this setup.
Are you have issues with the Jigsaw connection?
Please make sure you have a LIVE Jigsaw license.
If you are experiencing issues with Jigsaw, and you know that your TradeDay Tradovate evaluation account is set up correctly, then you will need to contact Jigsaw support directly. But before you do, here are a couple of things to try and check first:
- Log out of everywhere (TradeDay, Tradovate, and Jigsaw), and then log back in again.
- Ensure your Jigsaw license is up to date, and if you have renewed it recently, please ensure the correct license key has been entered into the platform.
- A few users reported changing their password at TradeDay fixed the issue. If you change your TradeDay password, it automatically changes your Tradovate password. Log out of members.tradeday.com, and at login hit the 'forgot password' link. Please ensure you follow our password requirements carefully.
- A few users have been able to connect by first setting up NinjaTrader, and then connecting to Jigsaw using the Jigsaw platform bridge with NinjaTrader.

What the page said before and after
Before
- Before exceeding $10,000 total profit per account, traders must open a Support Review Ticket.
- Reviews can take up to 5 trading days.
- Trading during a review = Account Forfeiture.
- If promoted to Live Brokerage, up to $10,000 profit per account (minus payouts)(max $30K/trader) transfers over.
- Traders must be legally eligible for brokerage and accepted by our brokers; if denied → Sim Profits are Forfeited.
- Risk Reviews can happen at anytime, and does not have to be after 10K in profit. Risk Reviews can also be done, for those traders that have a prior account history with BluSky.
- The Buffer is not calculated or withdrawable in the $10000, this refers to Profit Only.
3. Profit & Risk Rules
- Stop trading for the day after $5,000 in daily profit.
- Stop trading for the week after $10,000 in weekly profit (triggers review).
- These limits promote consistency and discipline, not gambling.
- BluSky may impose additional risk controls (contract caps, daily loss limits, etc.).
Section: BluSky Sim Funded Account Summary
− - Traders who blow 3+ funded accounts may be limited to 1 active account.
- Account reviews may occur at any time; timelines vary.
- Trading during review = automatic account loss.
- Please be advised that all trading activity must strictly align with established contract limits and any temporary risk restrictions currently in effect.
Adherence to these parameters is mandatory. In the event that trades are found to be out of alignment with these limits, the account will be subject to automated adjustments. These adjustments may include, but are not limited to:
- PnL Adjustments: Recalculation or reversal of profits or losses, as deemed applicable
- Balance Updates: Corrections to the total account equity.
- Position Liquidations: Partial or full closure of non-compliant positions.
4. $10K Brokerage Qualification Rule
- Once total profit (including payouts) reaches $10,000, traders must request a Brokerage Review.
- Upon approval, up to $10,000 per account (minus payout) is transferred to Live Brokerage. If the Risk Team determines you are not yet ready for a Live Account, you must continue trading your Sim Funded Account to further demonstrate consistency and performance. You may request a follow-up review at a later date; however, the maximum transferrable profit remains capped at $10,000 (minus approved payouts) regardless of any additional gains made.
- This system rewards total profitability — not just account balance.

Overview of Reserve Account Rules
The Blue Guardian Futures Reserve Challenge is designed for traders who prefer a flexible trading model with no daily loss limits and higher payout potential.
Traders can qualify for funded trading by completing the one-phase evaluation process, reaching the required profit target while complying with all trading rules and risk management requirements.
Below is a complete overview of the rules, trading conditions, and payout requirements for the Reserve account model.
Profit Target
Traders must achieve a 6% profit target on phase 1 while respecting all trading rules and risk limits.
Once the target is reached, the account will undergo a final review. After successful verification, the trader will move forward as a Funded Trader.
Daily Loss Limit
On the Reserve plan, there is no daily loss limit.
It is the trader’s responsibility to manage risk appropriately and trade in a disciplined manner while staying within the account’s overall trailing drawdown rules.
Is there an option to add a Daily Loss Limit to a Reserve Account?
Yes. We now offer an optional Daily Loss Limit add-on for traders who prefer the Reserve Account but would like the additional protection of a daily loss limit. This add-on can be selected during purchase for those who want an extra layer of risk management while trading.
Section: Is there an option to add a Daily Loss Limit to a Reserve Account?
− - $25,000 Account: $500
− - $50,000 Account: $1,000
− - $100,000 Account: $2,000
- $150,000 Account: $3,000
− I
Maximum Overall Drawdown (EOD)
The Maximum Trailing Drawdown on Reserve Accounts varies depending on the account size and follows an End-of-Day (EOD) trailing model during both the Evaluation and Funded stages.
This means the trailing drawdown only adjusts based on your closed balance at the end of each trading day, allowing traders to better plan their positions and build consistent risk management habits.
Once your trailing drawdown reaches your starting balance, the drawdown will lock and no longer trail.
This locked level becomes your permanent maximum loss limit for the account.
Examples:
- $25,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $26,600
- $50,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $52,100
- $100,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $103,600
- $150,000 Account: Drawdown locks at $156,100
Is there a monthly fee or activation fee?
No. Blue Guardian Futures does not require any monthly subscription fees or activation fees before receiving your funded account.

This isn't punishment. It's protection — guardrails to keep you in the game when the market is doing something it's never done before. Our job is to help you trade another day.
How Position Limits Are Adjusted
When a product is deemed high-risk due to volatility, we may implement one or both of the following adjustments:
- Micro Contract Limits
- Mini Contract Restrictions
- Trading on mini-sized contracts or larger may be temporarily halted for affected products
Current Restrictions
👉 Restrictions below are organized by account size: 50K/100K/150K

Section: Current Restrictions
⚠️ Please note: For Express Funded Accounts, position limits for restricted products have a ceiling of the contracts listed above (CL = 3/6/9, for example).
However, a trader's actual limit may be lower depending on their current account balance, as the Scaling Plan applies independently. Learn more below. 👇

When Do These Restrictions Apply?
Position limit adjustments are:
- Temporary: Restrictions remain in place only while volatility levels are elevated
- Product-specific: Only products experiencing extreme volatility are affected
- Actively monitored: Our Risk Team continuously evaluates market conditions to determine when normal limits can be reinstated
What You Can Still Do
- Continue trading with adjusted position sizes in affected products
- Trade other products with standard position limits
- Focus on risk management and strategic opportunities
- Use this time to refine your trading plan and review your strategy
Understanding Market Volatility
Historic volatility means historic losses can happen faster than normal. When markets move unpredictably:
- Slippage increases
- Risk management becomes more challenging
- Even well-planned trades can move against you quickly
These temporary adjustments give you the opportunity to participate in volatile markets while managing your risk appropriately.
How You'll Be Notified
When position limits are adjusted, you'll receive notification through:
- Email communication
- Dashboard banners
- Social media updates (@AskTopstep on X)
We'll also notify you when restrictions are lifted and normal position limits are reinstated.

+ - Minis (ES, RTY, YM, NQ): No new opening transactions permitted during the 10-minute window surrounding the release (5 minutes before, 5 minutes after).
+ - Micros (MES, M2K, MYM, MNQ, MNKD): Opening transactions limited to 1, 3, 6, 9, and 15 contracts for the $25K, $50K, $100K, $150K, and $250K account sizes, respectively, during the window (see table below)
+ - Non-equity products (metals, energies, rates, FX, etc.) are unaffected.
+ - Existing positions can continue to be held through the window; the restriction only applies to new opening transactions.

What the page said before and after
Before
Can I unlock multiple Reserve tiers at once with a big win?
No. Each tier requires net profit since the last expansion, reviewed weekly. Single oversized wins do not bypass this.
Can I use automated strategies in my LFA?
Automated strategies are permitted, but Topstep cannot help set them up or troubleshoot them. Automated trading via the ProjectX API is prohibited in the LFA.
How does trading Live benefit me over SIM?
Everything counts here. Real capital, real consequences, real payouts with no cap. The XFA proved your strategy works — Live is where you get paid like it. Trading Live is the goal. It means managing real money, which helps develop discipline and skills under real market conditions, preparing you for real-world trading at Topstep and beyond.
Once I have 30 winning days, can I take a 100% payout?
Yes. We encourage Traders to take full advantage of the benefits of Live trading with Topstep, including unlimited growth potential and daily Payouts. Please note that Payouts can only be taken from your unlocked balance, not from your Live Funded Account Reserve. Please note: withdrawing the full balance will close your account.
As you reach each profit target, additional funds are released from your Reserve into your unlocked balance. Once 100% of your balance has been unlocked, you may withdraw those funds as well.
What happens if I lose my 20% starting balance?
If your Live Funded Account balance drops below $1,000, the account will be liquidated immediately and closed at the end of the trading day. The remaining balance will be sent to you as a final payout before the account is closed.
Example: Account drops to $800 = auto liquidation and account closure at the end of that day. The remaining $800 is sent as a final Payout. Unlocked reserve is forfeited.
Section: What happens if I go inactive?
Can I have Trading Combines while I have a Live Funded Account?
Yes. You can have Trading Combines while actively trading a Live Funded Account. The restriction is only on activation — a passed Trading Combine cannot be activated into an Express Funded Account while your Live Funded Account is active. That option becomes available again if the Live Funded Account is lost.
Tip: You can duplicate trades across multiple accounts using a trade copier. Learn more here.

It means managing real money, which helps develop discipline and skills under real market conditions, preparing you for real-world trading at Topstep and beyond.
Once I have 30 winning days, can I take a 100% payout?
Yes. We encourage Traders to take full advantage of the benefits of Live trading with Topstep, including unlimited growth potential and daily Payouts. Please note that Payouts can only be taken from your unlocked balance, not from your Live Funded Account Reserve. Please note: withdrawing the full balance will close your account.
As you reach each profit target, additional funds are released from your Reserve into your unlocked balance. Once 100% of your balance has been unlocked, you may withdraw those funds as well.
What happens if I lose my 20% starting balance?
If your Live Funded Account balance drops below $1,000, the account will be liquidated immediately and closed at the end of the trading day. The remaining balance will be sent to you as a final payout before the account is closed.
Example: Account drops to $800 = auto liquidation and account closure at the end of that day. The remaining $800 is sent as a final Payout. Unlocked reserve is forfeited.
Section: What happens if I go inactive?
+ What happens if I go inactive?
+ Live Funded Accounts with no trading activity for more than 30 days may be closed. Live Funded Accounts can't be put on hold.
Can I have Trading Combines while I have a Live Funded Account?
Yes. You can have Trading Combines while actively trading a Live Funded Account. The restriction is only on activation — a passed Trading Combine cannot be activated into an Express Funded Account while your Live Funded Account is active. That option becomes available again if the Live Funded Account is lost.
Tip: You can duplicate trades across multiple accounts using a trade copier. Learn more here.
Can I unlock multiple Reserve tiers at once with a big win?
No. Each tier requires net profit since the last expansion, reviewed weekly. Single oversized wins do not bypass this.
Can I use automated strategies in my LFA?
Automated strategies are permitted, but Topstep cannot help set them up or troubleshoot them. Automated trading via the ProjectX API is prohibited in the LFA.
