At least 50% of the amount you request must come from new profit generated since your previous approved payout.
For example, a $2,000 payout request requires at least $1,000 in new profit during the current payout cycle.
Section: New-profit requirement from your second payout
+ Without this rule, a trader could build a buffer from one or two large days and then keep withdrawing the maximum cap without making anything new.
Eligible example
You trade a 50K account to $54,000 and receive a first payout of $2,000, leaving the account at $52,000.
A $2,000 request requires at least $1,000 in new profit, so you are not yet eligible to submit that request. Continue trading until the requirement is met.
Additional requirement for Instant Classic
Section: Additional requirement for Instant Classic
− After the first payout on an Instant Classic account, you must surpass your previous equity high—the account equity level reached before your last withdrawal—before requesting another payout.
+ After the first payout on an Instant Classic account, you must surpass your previous equity high, meaning the account equity level reached before your last withdrawal, before requesting another payout.
If your Instant Classic account was created after August 7, 2026, you must satisfy both the previous-equity-high requirement and the new-profit requirement.
Section: Daily Payouts
+ Daily Payouts
+ The new-profit requirement above applies to Daily Payouts, where it is called the daily progression rule: at least 50% of what you request must be profit made since your last approved payout.
+ The rest of this article does not apply to Daily Payouts. There is no winning day requirement and no consistency rule on the funded account, so nothing resets between payouts, and there are no payout windows. You can submit your next request 24 hours after the last one.

▸Version 1August 26, 2026, 1:40 PM

First archived version.

After an approved payout, a new payout cycle begins on the same account. You must meet the applicable payout requirements again before submitting another request.
What resets after a payout?
- Your winning-days counter resets to zero.
- Your consistency calculation starts fresh for the new payout cycle.
For your first payout, consistency is calculated using the profit accumulated since the account was funded. For later payouts, it is calculated using the profit accumulated during the new cycle after your previous approved payout.
New-profit requirement from your second payout
For accounts created after August 7, 2026, the following rule applies from the second payout onward:
At least 50% of the amount you request must come from new profit generated since your previous approved payout.
For example, a $2,000 payout request requires at least $1,000 in new profit during the current payout cycle.
Eligible example
You trade a 50K account to $54,000 and receive a first payout of $2,000, leaving the account at $52,000.
You complete the requirements for the next payout cycle and grow the account to $54,000 again. You have generated $2,000 in new profit since the previous payout, so you satisfy the new-profit requirement for another $2,000 request.
Not-yet-eligible example
Using the same example, your account has reached only $52,800. That is $800 in new profit.
A $2,000 request requires at least $1,000 in new profit, so you are not yet eligible to submit that request. Continue trading until the requirement is met.
Additional requirement for Instant Classic
After the first payout on an Instant Classic account, you must surpass your previous equity high—the account equity level reached before your last withdrawal—before requesting another payout.
If your Instant Classic account was created after August 7, 2026, you must satisfy both the previous-equity-high requirement and the new-profit requirement.
What happens if my recurring payout request is declined?
A declined request is not a breach and carries no account penalty. Continue trading and submit another request during an available payout window once all requirements are met.
Before requesting another payout
Make sure that:
- You have completed the required winning days for the new payout cycle.
- You meet the consistency rule that applies to your account.
- You meet the new-profit requirement if your account is subject to it.
- You have surpassed the previous equity high if you trade an Instant Classic account.
- Your request meets the minimum payout amount and applicable payout cap.
- You submit the request during an available payout window.
