Accounts and Billing
How accounts work, what they cost, and what you can run in parallel.
Account basics
What happens when I buy an account?
Your evaluation account is issued on the spot, and you can place your first trade as soon as you log in.
Is there a time limit to pass the evaluation?
No. Evaluations never expire, so you have as long as you need.
Can I have more than one account at once?
Up to 10 open accounts at once. Evaluations and funded accounts both count toward that one limit, so it could be 10 evaluations, 10 funded accounts, or any mix. Passing an evaluation does not free the slot; the funded account it becomes keeps it. Breached, closed and passed-but-not-yet-activated accounts do not count.
What account sizes are available?
Four sizes: $10K, $25K, $50K, and $100K. Each is available on Strix, Express and Strix Pro.
What is the difference between the Strix Plan and Express?
Strix and Strix Pro use end-of-day drawdown; Express uses intraday drawdown. Strix: 12 percent of account size. Express: 8 percent of account size. Strix Pro: 12 percent of account size. Strix: 6 percent of account size. Express: 4 percent of account size. Strix Pro: 6 percent of account size. Strix and Express are buying-only. Pro allows buying and supported finite-loss selling. No evaluation has a consistency rule, minimum trading days or deadline.
How much does each plan cost?
Strix: $179 for $10K, $299 for $25K, $419 for $50K, $569 for $100K. Express: $119 for $10K, $179 for $25K, $229 for $50K, $339 for $100K. Strix Pro: $198 for $10K, $398 for $25K, $798 for $50K, $1598 for $100K. Regular one-time prices before eligible discounts; no activation fee or funded subscription. These are one-time evaluation fees. Strix Pro has no activation fee and no funded subscription. Strix and Express retain their one-time funded activation fee, charged upfront at activation: $69 to $149 depending on account size for Strix and Express; Strix Pro has no activation fee. The evaluation fee is a separate one-time payment.
How soon do I get my funded account after I pass?
After passing, activate Funded from your dashboard. Strix Pro has no additional activation charge. Strix Pro has no activation fee and no funded subscription. Strix and Express retain their one-time funded activation fee, charged upfront at activation: $69 to $149 depending on account size for Strix and Express; Strix Pro has no activation fee. The evaluation fee is a separate one-time payment. Funding activation and payout processing are separate steps.
What are the Strix Pro rules?
Strix: $179 for $10K, $299 for $25K, $419 for $50K, $569 for $100K. Express: $119 for $10K, $179 for $25K, $229 for $50K, $339 for $100K. Strix Pro: $198 for $10K, $398 for $25K, $798 for $50K, $1598 for $100K. Regular one-time prices before eligible discounts; no activation fee or funded subscription. Strix Pro has one evaluation: a 12% profit target and 6% end-of-day trailing drawdown, monitored in real time. It has no consistency rule, evaluation deadline or minimum evaluation days. The 15% profit-to-risk check applies only to funded payouts, not passing Evaluation. For Strix Pro, 8 qualifying winning days need not be consecutive; the floors are $200 on a $100K, $150 on a $50K, $100 on a $25K or $10K, measured on realized profit before trading fees. Only a paid payout starts the next cycle, anchored at that request's snapshot. Pending, rejected and cancelled requests reset neither the days nor peak assessed risk. If paid, trading after that snapshot belongs to the next cycle. Before each funded payout, earn new net trading profit of at least 15% of your largest simultaneous assessed portfolio maximum loss in that payout cycle. This is a qualification requirement, not a deduction from profit. Only a paid payout starts a new cycle; rejected or cancelled requests do not reset your progress. Funded keeps the 80% split and 50% cash-above-original-starting-balance gross withdrawal pool, including retained profit. Pro minimums and proportional gross caps are published on /rules; the fourth cap repeats. Retained profits increase buying power. Buying and supported finite-loss option selling are allowed. Unlimited-loss short calls require a hedge. Call hedges must match the short call’s option root and expiration; different roots and expirations are assessed separately. A stop order does not limit theoretical maximum loss. Standard instrument trading and expiration rules apply; there is no additional Pro early-close rule. One-time evaluation fee. No activation fee or funded subscription. Eligible discount codes apply.
Fees and billing mechanics
Can I cancel my subscription?
There is nothing to cancel. Evaluations bought today are a single one-time fee with no monthly billing and no renewal. If you hold an older recurring plan from before that change, email support from your account address and we will sort it out.
When do I get billed?
The evaluation is charged once at checkout, with no renewal. Strix Pro has no activation fee and no funded subscription. Strix and Express retain their one-time funded activation fee, charged upfront at activation: $69 to $149 depending on account size for Strix and Express; Strix Pro has no activation fee. The evaluation fee is a separate one-time payment.
Does my referral or discount code apply to more than one charge?
Eligible discount codes apply to the one-time evaluation purchase, including Strix Pro when available. They do not create recurring billing or reduce a separate activation fee.
What happens if my card fails?
The purchase does not complete and no account is issued. Update your card in dashboard billing and try again. If the charge shows on your statement but no account appeared, send support the receipt and the email you purchased with.
Are payment details secure?
Yes. Card payments are processed by a PCI-compliant payment gateway that tokenizes your card, and we do not store full card numbers on our servers. See the Privacy Policy for vendor details.
