Summary
After completing the Growth Challenge and activating your Simulated Funded Account, you may request payouts based on preset profit goals. MegaTrader pays a 90% profit share and allows unlimited accounts (evaluation and simulated funded). Payouts are approved when you meet profit targets, minimum trading-day cadence (unless waived by the add-on), consistency, the 10-second microscalping rule, and balance vs. drawdown checks.
Profit Targets for Payouts
Account Size | Payout 1 Target | Payout 2+ Target |
$25,000 | $1,500 | $1,000 |
$50,000 | $3,000 | $2,000 |
$100,000 | $6,000 | $4,000 |
$150,000 | $9,000 | $6,000 |
Reconciliation window: Profits are calculated during daily reconciliation 5:00 PM–8:00 PM ET.
Minimum Trading Days Requirement
Each payout request must be at least 7 trading days apart.
A trading day is counted when at least one trade is placed between 6:00 PM ET and 5:00 PM ET the next day. The 7-day counter resets after each payout.
Optional: Anytime Payout Add-On
If enabled, Anytime Payouts removes the 7-day minimum entirely. You may request a payout at any time, provided you meet the profit target, consistency, 10-second microscalping, and drawdown/balance requirements.
35% Consistency Rule
No single trading day may account for more than 35% of your total profits for the payout cycle.
If violated, the payout will be delayed until additional trading rebalances performance.
Microscalping Rule (10-Second Standard)
No more than 50% of your current account profit may come from trades held for 10 seconds or less. To remain in compliance, the profit generated from trades held under 10 seconds must be less than half of your current realized account profit.
This rule is enforced continuously and applies in all market conditions, including news events and session opens/closes, and applies equally to all contract sizes (micro or mini).
Example (Not Compliant):
Current Account Profit: $2,000
Profit from Trades Held Under 10 Seconds: $1,050
Calculation: $1,050 ÷ $2,000 = 52.5%
Result: Not Compliant — because more than 50% of the account profit came from trades held under 10 seconds.
To remain compliant, profit from trades held under 10 seconds must remain below 50% of the current account profit.
Minimum Balance Requirement
At the time of payout, your account balance must exceed your trailing drawdown by at least $100.
Account Size | Trailing Drawdown | Minimum Balance Needed |
$25,000 | $1,000 | $26,100 |
$50,000 | $2,000 | $52,100 |
$100,000 | $3,500 | $103,600 |
$150,000 | $5,000 | $155,100 |

Payout Process
Submit your payout request in the MegaTrader dashboard.
Your account is reviewed during the 5:00 PM–8:00 PM ET reconciliation window.
If approved, the payout amount is deducted from your balance.
Payment is issued within 24 hours via your selected method (RiseWorks or crypto). A standard $12 withdrawal fee applies.
You may continue trading while a payout is pending, but the account must remain in full compliance. Payout requests cannot be edited or canceled once submitted.
Other Important Notes
Unlimited accounts: You may hold and trade as many evaluation and simulated funded accounts as you like.
Hedging is prohibited (including across accounts): Using one account to offset risk in another (e.g., long ES in one, short MES in another) violates policy.
Market hours: Be flat by 4:59 PM ET; trading resumes 6:00 PM ET (Sun–Thu evenings). No overnight/multi-day holding.
