Trading conditions

Shared across account sizes. Model exceptions are included below.

  • Commissions

    Tradeify’s pricing guide lists round-trip examples per contract: ES/NQ $5.76, MES/MNQ $1.82, CL $5.66 and GC $6.20. These trading costs are separate from the account purchase fee. Ten micro contracts incur ten micro commissions, not one mini commission.

  • Position limits

    Standard 25K / 50K / 100K / 150K evaluations allow 1 / 4 / 8 / 12 minis, or ten micros per mini. Funded Select accounts use scaling. The limited 300K evaluation allows 16 minis / 160 micros; its funded stage starts with 3 minis.

    Details & exceptions

    Growth Evaluation / Lightning Funded / Select Evaluation / Select · 50% Consistency Add-on

    1 minis / 10 micros; funded Select scaling is separate.

    Growth Evaluation / Lightning Funded / Select Evaluation / Select · 50% Consistency Add-on

    4 minis / 40 micros; funded Select scaling is separate.

    Growth Evaluation / Lightning Funded / Select Evaluation / Select · 50% Consistency Add-on

    Growth Evaluation / Lightning Funded / Select Evaluation / Select · 50% Consistency Add-on

    12 minis / 120 micros; funded Select scaling is separate.

    Select 300K V2 · Limited Release

    16 minis / 160 micros during evaluation; funded starts at 3 minis and scales.

  • News and trading strategies

    News trading is allowed. Hedging the same or correlated products across accounts is prohibited. Personal algorithms require exclusive ownership and compliance; HFT and simulation exploits are prohibited. Funded payouts require over half of trades and profits to come from trades held longer than 10 seconds.

  • Holding positions

    Close positions by 4:45 p.m. Eastern Time each trading day. Holding across midnight within the same session is allowed; holding through the daily close or weekend is not. Shortened holiday sessions use an earlier cutoff; the official guide specifies 12:59 p.m. ET.

Company information & important conditions

Summarized from official documentation. These facts are separate from our editorial assessment.

Company and location

The website identifies Tradeify Holdings, Corp. and lists 1700 S. Dixie Highway, Suite 305, Boca Raton, Florida 33432. This profile covers its futures prop programs. Its separate 247 and forex offerings use other websites and are not included in this catalog.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Simulated and live accounts

Growth and Select evaluations lead to Sim Funded accounts. Lightning skips the evaluation and starts in simulated funding; it is not immediate live brokerage capital. Elite Live is a separate progression subject to Tradeify review.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Purchase fees and activation

Current Growth, Select and Lightning plans are one-time purchases, with no recurring subscription and no activation fee. Optional data services, trading commissions and evaluation resets are separate costs. Legacy subscriptions can remain active until canceled.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Three standard paths

Growth can be passed in one trading day with no evaluation consistency rule, but has a daily loss limit. Select has no daily loss limit at 25K–150K and normally requires at least three days through its 40% consistency rule. Lightning starts directly in Sim Funded with payout profit goals and progressive consistency.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Select 50% add-on

The optional Select add-on raises evaluation consistency from 40% to 50%, allowing completion in as few as two days. Prices are $135 / $205 / $329 / $459 for 25K / 50K / 100K / 150K before unverified discounts. It does not add funded-stage consistency and is not available on 300K.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Limited Select 300K V2

The current dedicated article lists $349, a $14,000 target, $8,000 EOD drawdown and a $4,000 daily loss limit. V2 applies to purchases from August 27, 2026. This limited release requires KYC before purchase, permits at most three accounts per user and has no resets. Current stock and checkout were not verified.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

How EOD drawdown works

The trailing floor updates from the highest end-of-day balance, rather than following intraday profit peaks. The floor still applies continuously: touching it with net liquidation value fails the account even if it would recover before the close.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Daily loss limits

Growth starts with a $600 / $1,250 / $2,500 / $3,750 daily loss limit. Reaching it pauses trading for the day rather than failing the account. Lightning has no DLL at 25K and starts at $1,250 / $2,500 / $3,000 on larger sizes. The homepage describes an increase once account profit reaches 6%.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Select funded choice

After passing, choose Flex or Daily permanently for that account. Flex at 25K–150K keeps no daily loss limit and offers payouts after five winning days. Daily has tighter drawdown, a daily loss limit, a buffer and a daily payout formula. Neither funded path has an evaluation-style consistency requirement.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Growth payouts

Growth Sim Funded requires five qualifying profitable days, 35% consistency and a size-specific minimum balance. The first payout caps are $1,000 / $1,500 / $2,000 / $2,500. Later caps rise for larger sizes. These caps are requested amounts before the 90/10 split, not profits required to qualify.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Lightning payouts

Lightning’s detailed policy sets no fixed minimum trading-day count. Instead, reach a fresh profit goal and meet 20% consistency for payout one, 25% for payout two and 30% thereafter. Goals restart after each payout. The homepage’s five-day shorthand is not a promise of automatic payout eligibility.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Profit share and payout methods

Sim Funded rewards use a 90% trader / 10% Tradeify split. Elite Live uses 80/20. Rise is the primary payout provider, with bank and crypto withdrawals; Plane is an alternative where offered. Provider verification and processing time are separate from approval of a payout request.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

One payout request at a time

An account cannot have more than one open payout request. Keep the account and eligibility thresholds intact while a request is pending. Submitting a request does not guarantee payment; rule compliance and identity checks still apply.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Account activity and restrictions

Place at least one trade per week, Monday to Friday, on each evaluation or funded account. The guidelines say Tradeify will contact traders about inactivity before taking action. Geographic restrictions are based on permanent residence; US residents are eligible subject to checks.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Account and purchase limits

Standard accounts allow up to five active Sim Funded accounts. Select guidance limits standard evaluation purchases to 15 per 30 days and resets to ten per evaluation per 30 days. Limited 300K V2 accounts are excluded from that purchase allowance and can add three funded accounts above the standard five.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Platform and data costs

Tradovate, Rithmic/Tradesea and WealthCharts have the same account purchase prices and no additional platform surcharge. Non-professional market data is included subject to the required agreement. Optional Level 2 and EUREX services are offered through Tradovate; professional data may incur separate charges.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Reset pricing differences

Growth 100K and 150K reset fees disagree across official pages: the homepage shows $169 / $229 while the pricing guide shows $155 / $215. Both are recorded on the relevant challenge pages. Lightning and the limited 300K account cannot be reset. Confirm the reset charge in the dashboard before payment.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Current offer and bundles

Homepage advertises 40% off for a maximum of five uses, then 30% off, ending 30 September 2026 at 11:59 p.m. EST as written by Tradeify. Amounts below reproduce the rounded dollar prices shown, not a calculated checkout total. Coupon entry is disabled before sign-in. A separate 5% five-account bundle offer applies only to Growth and Select 25K / 50K, with all five accounts of the same type and size. The help guide says it stacks with an active promo code; no bundle checkout total was verified.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Source and price verification

The 12 standard base fees match both the official homepage and public checkout summaries. Homepage promotional amounts are rounded dollar displays; final coupon redemption and taxes require sign-in and were not verified. Add-on fees come from the pricing guide; 300K V2 comes from its dedicated article, which supersedes the guide’s older $449 V1 entry.

Official source · Checked 2026-09-28

Progression to Elite Live

The current Select payout article gives minimum consideration thresholds of three payouts on one account or ten total since the previous live transition. Meeting those thresholds does not guarantee a live invitation. Tradeify also reviews consistency, risk management and trading behavior.
