Prop Firm Rule Changes. Tracked Daily.

Your morning update on futures prop firm rule changes, refreshed overnight.

We track the published rules and policies of 32 futures prop firms and keep every version, so when a firm edits a rule we have the before and after in writing. Most of what changes is really nothing: a fixed typo, a clarified sentence, a word added here and there. But real changes stand out fast, and you can literally watch rules and policies tighten line by line. Payout terms creep, consistency thresholds drop, and prices quietly climb. It works the other way too: sometimes payouts improve and rules loosen, and when that happens it’s usually one of our Premier firms.

Most of the tightening shows up on the Unlisted side, firms we track but haven’t listed on PickAPropFirm.com. When a firm with a rough reputation starts gaining traction on rock-bottom prices, promoted by affiliates who would scam their own grandma for a commission, the discount usually costs you somewhere else, and that somewhere shows up here. If a plan looks too good to be true, it almost always is.

Starred changes are the ones we think deserve your attention; the full feed below is everything we caught, right down to the typo fixes.

Treat this page like your morning paper. It updates overnight, so grab your coffee and see what changed. – Jmu (@jmutrades)

  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, it act as soft breach.
+ Reserve Accounts include a Daily Loss Limit by default. Traders who prefer to trade without this restriction can select the “No Daily Loss Limit” add-on when purchasing their account. The Daily Loss Limit can be removed by selecting the optional add-on during checkout.
+ If the add-on is selected, the account will not have a Daily Loss Limit. However, traders must continue to manage their risk carefully and remain within the account’s overall trailing drawdown limit.
+ The Default Daily Loss Limits are:
  - $25,000 Account: $600
  - $50,000 Account: $1,200
  - $100,000 Account: $1,700
  - $150,000 Account: $3,000
+ Without the add-on, exceeding the applicable Daily Loss Limit will result in a soft breach.
  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.
· · ·
  Example
  If your highest-profit trading day is $2,000, your total profits must exceed $4,000 before you satisfy the 50% consistency requirement.
+ Optional 40% Consistency Add-On
+ Traders who prefer a lower-priced Reserve evaluation can select the optional “40% Consistency” add-on during checkout.
+ When this add-on is selected, the standard 50% Consistency Rule is replaced by a 40% Consistency Rule. This means your highest-profit trading day cannot account for more than 40% of your total profits.
+ For example, if your highest-profit day is $2,000, your total profits must reach at least $5,000 to satisfy the 40% requirement.
+ The Consistency Rule applies only during the Challenge phase. Funded Reserve Accounts do not have a Consistency Rule.
  Consistency Cushion
- To give traders a little more flexibility, the Reserve Account includes a 1% Consistency Cushion. This means your largest profitable trading day can make up up to 51% of your total profits, instead of being strictly limited to 50%. The cushion is there to help traders who narrowly exceed the consistency limit by a small amount, so they don’t have to take an extra trading day just because they were slightly over.
+ To give traders a little more flexibility, the Reserve Account includes a 1% Consistency Cushion. This means your largest profitable trading day can make up up to 51% of your total profits, instead of being strictly limited to 50%. The 1% Consistency Cushion applies to the standard 50% Consistency Rule only, allowing the highest profit day to represent up to 51% of total profits.
+ The cushion is there to help traders who narrowly exceed the consistency limit by a small amount, so they don’t have to take an extra trading day just because they were slightly over.
  While this flexibility may allow some traders to complete the evaluation in as little as two trading days, we always recommend focusing on consistent trading rather than trying to pass as quickly as possible.

  Consistency helps encourage disciplined risk management by ensuring no single trading day accounts for a disproportionate amount of your profits. This promotes steady, repeatable trading habits throughout the evaluation.
  Calculation
- All S2F Accelerate accounts are subject to a 25% Consistency Rule. This means your largest single trading day's profit cannot exceed 25% of your total account profit when requesting a payout. After each approved payout, your consistency calculation resets and begins again from your new account balance.
+ All S2F Accelerate accounts are subject to a 25% Consistency Rule. This means your largest single trading day's profit cannot exceed 25% of your total account profit when requesting a payout. Consistency applies for the lifetime of the account.
  Largest Trading Day Profit ÷ Total Profit Earned = Consistency %

  - A trader can trade up to 10 accounts total.
  - The 10 accounts can be any mix of accounts types, with a max of 10 evaluation accounts, 5 Funded Sim accounts and 5 Funded live accounts
· · ·
  No. Funded Live and Funded Sim accounts must be traded separately. You cannot trade them simultaneously, and copy trading between these accounts is not possible. Each account must be managed and executed independently.
  Note: You may trade or copy trade between 2 or 3 Funded Sim accounts only.
+ Can I have an active trade in a Funded Live account while also having an active trade in an Evaluation or Funded Sim account?
+ No. You cannot have active trades simultaneously across a Funded Live account and an Evaluation or Funded Sim account.
+ This restriction applies whether or not the trades are being copy-traded. The rule is based on having simultaneous open positions across these account types, not solely on the use of a copy-trading system.
+ For example, you may not have an open position in a Funded Live account while also holding an open position in an Evaluation or Funded Sim account.

updatedPremierPhidias · 30% consistency rule on Phidias Propfirm accounts2026-09-22 · +5 / -5 lines

Read the live article · All Phidias changes

  Rule : No single day can exceed 30% of total profit
  Min. Calculation Period : 4 trading days
- How It Works
+ ### How It Works
  If your total profit is $1,000 on your account, one of the previous days cannot exceed $300 (30% of $1,000 = $300). But if it does, no worries — you just need to increase your total profit. For example, if you make $330 on your best day, you just need to increase your total profit from $1,000 to $1,100 and you enter the consistency rule (30% of $1,100 = $330).
- Example
- If you make $1,000 in 4 days ($250 each day), your best profit day is $250, and $250 out of $1,000 total profit represents 25%  you pass.
- But if, out of those 4 days, you have one day at $350, one day at $100 and two other days at $250, it is still $1,000. However, your best profit day is $350. That is 35% of $1,000 total profit — exceeding the 30% rule.
- Note — Express to Live accounts: The 30% Consistency Rule does not apply to Express to Live accounts (25K, 50K, 100K, 150K). E2L accounts have no consistency rule.
+ ### Example
+ If you make $1,000 in 4 days ($250 each day), your best profit day is $250, and $250 out of $950 total profit represents 25% you pass.
+ But if, on those 4 days, you have one day at $350, one day at $100 and two other days at $250, the total is $950. However, your best day, at $350, then represents about 36.8% of the total profit, which exceeds the 30% rule.
+ **Note Express to Live accounts:** The 30% Consistency Rule does not apply to Express to Live accounts (25K, 50K, 100K, 150K). E2L accounts have no consistency rule.
