The Instant Funding Accounts allows experienced traders to the evaluation and enter directly into the Sim Funded Stage with real capital. Payouts are available every 10 trading days and all accounts boast a 4% account drawdown and industry highest 30% consistency.
Plan Costs
IFA plans are one-time fee only. No monthly subscription or any other type of fees.
Consistency
The key to long term success is consistency. IFA plans are designed to provide traders access to payouts by showing consistent trading. All IFA plans have a payout consistency goal of 30% during this simulated funded phase. This means that a single day cannot be more than 30% of the total profits in a payout period.
Traders cannot withdrawal if their consistency is greater than 30%. Going above 30% is not a violation. If your account is above 30%, you will have to continue trading to bring the accout consistency into range to request a payout.
Contract Scaling
IFA accounts start with a base number of contracts based on the account size. Accounts will gain access to more contracts as the balance increases. This is a rough representation of how margin will work in a Live account as well as helping traders build their account through A+ trade setups.
- $30K – Below $1000 profit = 1mini/10micro; Above $1000 profit = 2mini/20micro
- $50K – Below $1500 profit = 3mini/30micro; Above $1500 profit = 5mini/50micro
- $100K – Below $1500 profit = 3mini/30micro; Above $1500, below $3500 = 5mini/50micro; Above $3500 = 7mini/70micro
Maximum Loss Limit (MLL)
All plans start with a MAB of 4% the starting balance. This balance is given to allow traders flexibility to meet consistency targets on a daily basis. IFA plans have an End-of-Day (EOD) trailing through the first payout. After the first payout, the MLL becomes fixed and will never trail the account balance.
Each IFA uses an EOD trailing until the the account balance reaches the profit target.
To repeat another way, the MLL will stop EOD trailing once the MLL reaches the starting account balance and stays there for the remainder of all payouts.
Daily Loss Limit (DLL)
All plans have a Daily Loss Limit (DLL) of 2.5% based off the Start of Day balance. The DLL is a hard violation and will cause account failure. This means traders need to manage their risk to ensure staying above the DLL. Your DLL will increase each day as your account balance grows. This allows for more trading freedom each day.
Minimum Profit Days (MPD)
There is a minimum profit goal of 0.5% of the account balance for 5 days in order to qualify for a payout. Days do not have to be consecutive, only a total of 5 MPD which are recorded and displayed on your dashboard.
Payouts
Traders can request 50% of their profit goal each payout. When a trader requests a payout, a percentage will be moved to their SimWallet account balance with the remainder being paid out. This balance is known as a traders Live Wallet. Payouts can be requested with the following requirements:
- Minimum 10 trading days
- Five Minimum Profit Days
- Reach Profit Target
- Maintain less than 30% consistency
Payout to wallet ratios are as follows:
- Payout 1: 60% payout, 40% SimWallet
- Payout 2: 65% payout, 35% SimWallet

- Payout 4: 80% payout, 20% SimWallet
