** What does "Minimum Account Balance AFTER Withdrawal" mean?
Example for the $50,000 Account
Your account must reach $52,600 before you can request a payout.
After your payout, your account must stay at $52,000 or higher.
The smallest payout you can request is $500.
Example:
You have $53,000 in your account.
You want to take out $800.
$53,000 minus $800 = $52,200
$52,200 is more than $52,000, so your payout is approved.
Minimum Payout Request: $500
Minimum QDays between requests: 10
After your payout is approved, the next session after the request is counted as Day 1 of the next cycle
Payout Profit Targets is the simulated profit that must be generated between payouts.
Payout Targets | 25k Account | 50k Account | 150k Account |
Profit Target 1 | $2,000 | $3,500 | $10,000 |
Profit Target 2 | $1,500 | $3,000 | $5,000 |
Profit Target 3+ | $1,000 | $2,500 | $3,500 |
Max. Payout Request | $1,000 | $2,000 | $3,000 |
Example – $50K Account
Starting balance: $50,000
Payout 1: Earn $3,500 in profit from the starting balance (reach $53,500), then request a $2,000 payout → new balance becomes $51,500
Payout 2: From this new balance ($51,500), you must earn an additional $3,000 profit (reach $54,500), then request a $2,000 payout → new balance becomes $52,500
Payout 3 and beyond: From the current balance, you must generate $2,500 profit before each payout (for example, reach $55,000 or higher), then request a $2,000 payout → balance adjusts accordingly
How it works:
After each approved payout, the payout amount is deducted from your account balance. Your next profit target is always calculated as a fixed profit amount starting from your updated balance after the payout.
