Company information & important conditions
Summarized from official documentation. These facts are separate from our editorial assessment.
Company and trading environment
The terms identify Lucid Trading Group LLC. The website lists a Dover, Delaware address. Evaluations and initial funded accounts use simulated capital; live trading is a separate stage.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Current account range
Pro, Flex, Daily and Direct are available in 25K, 50K, 100K and 150K sizes. Prices are one-time, and the evaluation cards show no funded activation fee. Resets are separate purchases. LucidBlack and restricted-access Maxx are not included in this current public catalogue.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Daily loss options
Pro and Flex offer DLL on/off; Daily adds EOD or intraday evaluation drawdown. Enabling a DLL lowers the advertised price. The setting carries into funding and cannot be changed on an active account. A DLL hit pauses trading; reaching maximum loss still fails the account.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Pro rules and source difference
Pro can pass in one day and has no evaluation consistency requirement. Its current 25K selector and funded table show a $600 optional daily limit, while older evaluation/DLL tables say none. This profile follows the selected current $600 configuration and retains the discrepancy for confirmation.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Pro payout requirements
The trader share is 90%. Requests require 40% consistency, profit above the loss allowance plus $100 buffer, and a fresh cycle profit goal. Minimum request $500. The dedicated payout policy lists size-specific request caps despite the overview saying no simulated payout caps; the detailed caps are used here.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Flex payout requirements
Five qualifying profit days and positive cycle profit are required. There is no funded consistency test or payout buffer. The $500 minimum and 50%-of-profit withdrawal limit apply, with size-specific caps and a 90% trader share.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Flex contract scaling
Funded Flex starts at 1/2/3/4 minis for 25K/50K/100K/150K, increasing with simulated profits to each account ceiling. Limits update at the end of the session and can fall after losses or payouts. Evaluations do not use this scaling plan.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Daily funded drawdown
Daily evaluations can use EOD or intraday drawdown, but every Daily funded account uses intraday trailing drawdown. Funded accounts have no consistency requirement. The selected fixed daily loss limit, if enabled, remains in place.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Daily payout requirements
Requests can be made daily once profit exceeds the buffer and new positive profit has been earned since the previous request. Minimum $500, 90% trader share, and withdrawals limited to profit above the buffer. Daily profit thresholds of $6K/$8K/$10K/$12K trigger live transition for the four sizes.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Direct funding
Direct skips evaluation but still begins in simulation. It uses EOD drawdown and 20% payout consistency. The 25K has no DLL; larger sizes begin with fixed daily limits and later use a scaling limit. Its detailed payout policy includes profit objectives and caps.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Payments and withdrawals
Major credit and debit cards are accepted for purchases. US payout options include Plaid and WorkMarket; international traders can use WorkMarket or listed crypto options. Payout processing is subject to approval and the selected provider.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Platforms and connectivity
CQG supports NinjaTrader, Tradovate and TradingView. Rithmic supports the other listed platforms. The help centre states all listed platforms support all Lucid account types; confirm any separate software costs before purchase.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Account activity
An account without trading that produces at least $1 net profit or loss within 30 calendar days is treated as abandoned. Breached evaluations are also removed after 30 days if not reset.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Strategies and restrictions
Automated systems, trade copiers and genuine scalping are permitted subject to Lucid’s rules. Hedging, high-frequency trading and prohibited microscalping remain restricted. Daily has separate news limitations.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Eligibility
Citizenship or residency in a restricted country makes a trader ineligible. The United States is supported. Check the current official country list and account verification requirements before purchase.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Live progression
The risk team decides live transitions. Payout five, substantial lifetime payouts or exceptional performance can trigger review; five payouts are not a guaranteed minimum. Eligible funded accounts transition together, and remaining simulated accounts close under the policy.
Official source · Checked 2026-09-28
Price verification
VAULT is advertised on Lucid’s homepage. Amounts reproduce each selected plan, account size, drawdown type and daily-loss setting. DLL-on evaluation prices include the selector’s additional limited-time savings; do not subtract these savings again. Public checkout requires registration, so checkout totals, taxes and individual eligibility were not verified. No confirmed expiry was displayed. No account was created or payment attempted. Advertised full prices are retained alongside exact promotional amounts rather than recalculating an assumed percentage.

Documentary research and first-hand testing are different. We identify the basis for our assessments and distinguish documented terms from hands-on experience.
