The verdict
Best for traders who want to skip the evaluation or need fast, flexible payouts. Instant accounts have no daily loss, consistency or minimum-day rules. The trade-offs: it's perps, not futures, trading fees apply, payouts are in crypto (USDC), and high leverage can blow an account quickly.
Funded on day one. Your one-time payment equals your max drawdown. 95% profit split.
10% profit goal, static 6% max drawdown, optional 3%/4% daily loss limit. 80% split once funded.
Profit goal and drawdown dollar amounts are calculated from the published percentages. Sources: plans · FAQ (checked Oct 31, 2026).
Static drawdown: the 6% floor on evaluations doesn't trail your profits — it stays put, which is friendlier than a trailing drawdown.
Instant = your fee is your risk: on a $10,000 instant account you pay $400 and can lose $400 before the account ends.
Leverage: up to 50x. Size down — leverage makes the drawdown disappear fast.
Fees: 0% maker, 0.0025% taker on indices/commodities, 0.01% taker on other markets. Factor them into scalping.
Allowed: news trading, scalping and overnight holds. Max 10 live accounts.
Split: 95% on instant accounts, 80% on evaluation accounts. Minimum: none. Timing: claim anytime, processed within 24 hours.
Method: USDC to your crypto wallet — you'll need a wallet set up before your first payout.
Example: make $300 on an instant account and request it — at 95% you receive $285 in USDC.
