How to Qualify for a Payout

Qualifying for a payout at MegaTrader requires traders to meet specific criteria related to profit goals, consistency, trading activity, and rule compliance. This guide outlines the exact steps needed to become eligible for your first—and future—payouts.

Each account size has unique profit milestones that must be reached before requesting a payout. The target resets after every successful payout and increases in tiered steps. You must hit the required goal for your payout tier based on your account type.

Refer to your plan’s payout structure for specific values.

Before each payout request, your account must show at least 10 separate trading days. A trading day counts when you place at least one trade during the official session window (6:00 PM EST to 5:00 PM EST the next day).

The trading day count resets after each payout.

Your trading performance must pass the Consistency Rule:

No single day’s profit should exceed the applicable percentage of your total profits within the current payout cycle. If you violate this, you’ll need to continue trading to rebalance your profit distribution.

You must remain above your account’s minimum balance threshold, including drawdown and buffer:

Example: A $100,000 Growth account with a $3,500 trailing drawdown must maintain at least $103,600 to qualify.

Drawdown compliance is required until the payout is approved—not just when you submit the request.
