One funded stage · two entry paths

Simulated Funded Account

A verified Vault EOD or Vault Intraday pass moves to a same-size simulated funded account with no activation fee and no consistency rule. Vault Direct begins at the same-size simulated funded stage without an evaluation and also has no consistency rule.

  • Intraday trailing drawdown includes realized and unrealized high-water equity
  • Funded buffer equals maximum loss plus $100
  • Trail locks at the size-specific milestone
  • Permanent floor is $100 above starting balance
  • 5 days with at least $150 net profit each and a $500 minimum request

Contractual program payment

Vault Payout

An eligible Vault Payout is a company-funded contractual program payment under the published policy—not a withdrawal of simulated funds or customer-owned cash. The dashboard shows the buffer, profit above buffer, minimum balance required, qualifying days, and remaining objective before a request can qualify.

  • 30% of current funded buffer maximum risk per trade
  • A 30% rule violation denies the affected request; it does not liquidate the account
  • Identity, account, and provider-record review required
  • First complete and eligible request: allow up to 21 business days for review and payment release
  • Subsequent eligible requests generally process faster after verification and bank linking
  • Receiving-bank or payment-network posting time may be additional
