Growth Plan : Rules & Risk Parameters

Key trading limits, drawdown rules, and compliance requirements.

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Summary

The Growth Plan enforces structured, rule-based trading behavior across multiple evaluation stages. With daily loss limits, end-of-day trailing drawdown protection, and strict position sizing, this plan promotes consistency and discipline. Breaching any rule results in account failure and a required reset.


End-of-Day Trailing Drawdown

Growth Plan accounts use an End-of-Day (EOD) Trailing Drawdown, calculated based on your account balance at the end of each trading session. Unlike intraday models, this allows more freedom to manage positions throughout the day without being penalized for short-term drawdowns.

Account Size

Trailing Drawdown

$25,000

$1,000

$50,000

$2,000

$100,000

$3,500

$150,000

$5,000

Falling below the drawdown threshold at the end of any trading day will fail the account.


Daily Loss Limit (Soft Breach)

The Growth Plan includes a daily loss limit that acts as a soft warning. While crossing it does not immediately fail the account, it may trigger alerts or platform-based risk management measures.

Account Size

Daily Loss Limit

$25,000

$500

$50,000

$1,250

$100,000

$2,500

$150,000

$3,750


Position Size Limits

You must follow strict contract sizing rules at all times. These are non-negotiable limits:

Account Size

Max Position Size

$25,000

1 Contract / 10 Micros

$50,000

5 Contracts / 50 Micros

$100,000

10 Contracts / 100 Micros

$150,000

15 Contracts / 150 Micros

Exceeding the maximum position size—even once—will result in immediate account failure.


35% Consistency Rule

To qualify for payouts, your trading performance must follow the 35% Consistency Rule:

  • No single trading day may account for more than 35% of your total profits in a payout cycle

  • If violated, your payout will be delayed until additional trading rebalances the profit distribution


Minimum Trading Days Requirement

You must complete at least 10 trading days between each payout request. A trading day is counted if:

  • You place at least one trade between 6:00 PM EST and 5:00 PM EST the following day

  • The 10-day counter resets after each payout

Additionally, 5 of those days must meet minimum profit thresholds:

  • $150 for $50K accounts

  • $200 for $100K accounts

  • $250 for $150K accounts

  • (Thresholds are waived for the $25K account)


Platform Compliance

All trading must be conducted on approved platforms:

  • Project X

  • Tradovate

  • NinjaTrader

Using unauthorized bots, APIs, or unsupported third-party tools will lead to account disqualification.


Violations & Resets

If you break any major rule (drawdown, contract sizing, platform use), your account will be failed. To continue, you may:

  • Use a Reset Credit, or

  • Purchase a new Growth Plan subscription
