Rewards
The trader can request a payout with a 90% profit split on a weekly basis after the first executed trade on their Hola Prime (Sim. Funded) Account, with each weekly cycle beginning after the first executed trade following a payout request.
The trader is entitled to a reward after fulfilling the payout conditions as follows:
5 Winning Days
The trader must achieve at least 5 profitable trading days (non-consecutive). The minimum profit required per winning day depends on the account size:
| Account Size | Minimum Daily Profit |
|---|
| $25K | $100 |
| $50K | $150 |
| $100K | $200 |
| $150K | $250 |
If this condition is not met, the trader must continue trading until 5 profitable trading days have been achieved.
For every subsequent payout request, the trader must complete 5 new winning trading days starting from the date of the first trade executed after the most recent payout.
Consistency Requirement
The Consistency Score must not exceed 35%. The consistency score is calculated as follows: Consistency Score = (Biggest Winning Day / Current Total Account Profit) × 100
In simple words, the biggest winning day cannot exceed 35% of the total profits made in the account. If the score exceeds 35%, the trader must continue trading until the score is reduced below 35%.
For example, if the highest profit earned in a day is $7,000 and the total profit earned so far is $17,500, then the Consistency Score = (7000 / 17500) × 100 = 40% In this case, the trader must continue trading and increase the total profit to at least $20,000 (an additional profit of $2,500) so that the consistency score is reduced to 35%.
Payout Amount
Minimum payout request depends on account size:
| Account Size | Minimum Payout |
|---|
| $25K | $250 |
| $50K | $500 |
| $100K | $1,000 |
| $150K | $1,500 |
Payout cap per account is based on account size and the number of payouts received:
| Account Size | 1st Payout | 2nd Payout | 3rd Payout | 4th Onwards |
|---|
| $25K | $1,000 | $1,250 | $1,500 | $2,000 |
| $50K | $1,500 | $2,000 | $2,500 | $3,000 |
| $100K | $2,000 | $2,500 | $3,000 | $4,000 |
| $150K | $2,500 | $3,000 | $4,000 | $5,000 |
Important Note: Once a payout request is processed, the Maximum Loss Limit will automatically reset to the starting account balance. The trader must ensure that the account balance does not reach or fall below the starting account balance.
