Section: Max trailing drawdown
− Instant Sim Funded (purchased before 7/27/2026): Starting Max Drawdown by Account Size:
− - $25,000 → $1,000
− - $50,000 → $2,000
− - $100,000 → $3,000
− - $150,000 → $4,500
− - Instant Sim Funded 2.0 purchased on and after 7/27/2026): Starting Max Drawdown by Account Size:
− - $25,000 → $1,000
− - $50,000 → $2,000
− - $100,000 → $4,000
− - $150,000 → $5,250
− 3. Drawdown Lock
− Once your profits reach the drawdown amount plus $100, your trailing drawdown locks at $100 above your starting balance and no longer follows account growth. This provides more stability and reduces the risk of losing access to the account as you scale.
− Examples:
− - $50K account → Lock occurs at $52,100; drawdown locks at $50,100.
− - $100K account → Lock occurs at $104,100; drawdown locks at $100,100.
− This lock also activates after your first payout.
− 4. Daily Loss Limit (DLL)
− The Daily Loss Limit is set between 2.0% – 2.5% of your initial account balance for legacy accounts. This drawdown parameter helps manage risk and promotes responsible trading habits. Exceeding this limit will result in an account breach.
− Here is the Daily Loss Limit breakdown by account size:
− Instant Sim Funded Daily Loss Limit (purchased before 7/27/2026):
−| Account Size | Daily Loss Limit (DLL) |
|---|
| $25,000 Instant Sim Funded Account | $625 |
| $50,000 Instant Sim Funded Account | $1,250 |
| $100,000 Instant Sim Funded Account | $2,500 |
| $150,000 Instant Sim Funded Account | $3,750 |
− Instant Sim Funded 2.0 Daily Loss Limit (purchased on and after 7/27/2026):

| $100,000 Instant Sim Funded Account | $2,500 |
| $150,000 Instant Sim Funded Account | $3,000 |
− 5. Consistency Rule: To be eligible for a payout, your consistency score must be 20% or lower
− To qualify for payouts, your trading must reflect steady, disciplined performance. No single day’s profit may exceed 20% of your total profits.
− After a payout is taken from an Instant Sim Funded account, the consistency score is reset, and the consistency rule is then applied to new profits moving forward. This ensures that traders demonstrate steady performance rather than relying on one or two highly volatile trading sessions.
− All the information regarding the consistency rule on Instant Sim Funded Accounts can be found here.
− Example: If your total profit is $10,000, no single trading day should exceed $2,000 in profit.
− This rule encourages balanced trading instead of relying on a single high-risk session.
− Please Note: For the purposes of consistency rule calculation, a trading day ends at 5:00pm EST.
− 6. No Contract Scaling Requirements
− There are no scaling rules in the Instant Sim Funded Program. You are allowed to use the full contract limit for your account size from day one. Choose an account size that fits your trading style and strategy.
− 7. Maximum Payout Caps on Instant Sim Funded Accounts
