Cheapest published size per program, at the firm’s listed prices, before discounts and data fees. The second-attempt column adds one reset where the firm sells resets, or a second evaluation where it does not.

Rules in detail 8
- The firm shows its prices only in its own checkout. Profit targets per size aren't shown on the firm's public pages either.
- Sizes offered: $2.5K, $5K, $10K, $20K, $50K, $100K and $200K, in 1-phase or 2-phase form.
- Help-centre examples on a $100K account use a 10% max drawdown and a $4,000 (4%) daily drawdown.
- Accounts bought before 29 April 2026 use a static max drawdown; the checkout also lists trailing-on-highest-equity options, so the drawdown type can depend on size and purchase date.
- 1-phase $100K and $200K accounts created from 6 July 2026 need 3 trading days and have a 50% consistency rule (best day no more than 50% of positive days' profit).
- News trading is banned around high-impact news on the $100K and $200K accounts only.
- Daily drawdown resets at 16:15 CT from closed balance; commissions count toward daily P&L.
- Weekend holding is limited. Maximum 2 accounts.
