KEY LEVELS IN DOLLARS FOR THIS ACCOUNT
Equity includes open positions. Unrealized gains can raise the high-water mark, and later declines can cause a breach. The consistency calculation may be trade-based or market-based depending on configuration — refer to your account dashboard for the calculation that applies to your account.
Once a payout is processed, the drawdown floor locks at the account's starting balance. Traders must keep equity above that floor. This changes the risk threshold, not the ability to trade. Requests are submitted from your trader dashboard and require compliance and review before approval.

Event-based trading
How prediction trading works
- Buy Yes or Buy No to express a view on an event outcome; short selling is not available.
- Positions can be closed before resolution. Closing a held position is different from opening a short.
- Winning shares settle at $1.00 and losing shares at $0.00 under the market's resolution rules.
- Pricing and event data are sourced through the Polymarket API. Only markets enabled for this program are available.
- Opening prices are restricted to 20–80 cents. This restriction does not prevent closing outside that range.
- Opening commission is 1% of opening position value; no closing commission.
- No margin or leverage.
Liquidity, spreads, execution differences and delayed or disputed resolution can affect results. Displayed prices and market-implied probabilities are not guarantees. If checkout opens on Futures, select One Step Prediction Assessment to purchase a Prediction Markets account.

Trade
Trade the PropShopTrader-issued account and stay inside your selected plan’s risk parameters, tracked in your dashboard.
Qualify
Complete your plan’s assessment requirements where one applies — Direct Futures has no assessment stage — and complete the required verification and agreement steps, including Know Your Customer and your Trader Agreement. Completing an assessment is separate from meeting the funded payout eligibility conditions.

FAQ
Answers before you buy
Futures
Which plan fits me?
Pro Futures and Flex Futures are assessment plans. You pass one evaluation stage, then a funded account is issued. Flex uses a different balance of objective and risk parameters from Pro. Direct Futures has no assessment stage, so you trade the funded-account structure from the start. Compare the objective, drawdown and daily loss limit for each plan at your chosen size before you buy.
What does each plan cost, and is the fee recurring?
The price depends on the plan, account size, platform and any active promotion. The current price and billing terms, including whether the fee is one-time or recurring, appear in the plan details before you confirm payment. Review the exact plan record at checkout rather than relying on older promotional copy.
What can fail my account?
A hard breach can fail the assessment or remove the funded account. Hard breaches include exceeding the daily loss limit, breaking the maximum drawdown, or leaving the account inactive for the period stated in your plan. Prohibited trading can also end your participation in the program and may result in forfeiture of fees paid.
How does Futures drawdown work?
Maximum drawdown is the balance floor your account may not fall below. Some plans use a static level set from the starting balance. Others trail a high-water mark until a defined point and then lock. Your plan record states the method and amount that apply to your account, and the current breach level is shown in your dashboard.
When can I request my first Futures payout, and how much?
For an assessment plan, you must first meet the evaluation requirements and receive the funded account after completing Know Your Customer verification and your Trader Agreement. Direct Futures begins on the funded-account structure. Submit payout requests through the trader dashboard. The profit split, minimum request, maximum per request and request cadence are set by the plan and account size you purchased. Every request is reviewed before approval.
What happens to my Futures account after a payout?
Your account continues under the same plan rules. Your plan record and Trader Agreement explain how an approved payout changes the account balance and the drawdown level you must stay above. Review those terms before choosing the amount to request.
Can I trade Futures during news events?
Opening a position within three minutes before or after a News Event is prohibited. A position identified as opened during a News Event may be closed, with the associated profit or loss removed, leverage reduced, or the account breached. The Company determines what constitutes a News Event at its sole and absolute discretion.

Stocks Assessment is available in 25K, 50K, 100K and 150K sizes. The regular one-time plan prices are $215.00, $429.00, $859.00 and $1,429.00, respectively. Code PST provides 25% off the plan price, reducing those prices to $161.25, $321.75, $644.25 and $1,071.75. Optional add-ons are priced separately.
Which stocks can I trade?
Stocks accounts may trade the current list of 101 approved U.S. equity symbols at up to 2:1 leverage. Not every U.S. stock is eligible. The searchable list of approved symbols and company names is available in the trader dashboard before and after purchase.
What platform can I trade Stocks on?
Stocks can be traded on PropX only. Stocks are not available on Tickblaze or Rithmic.
Can I hold a Stocks position overnight?
No. Overnight holding is not available on Stocks accounts. All open Stocks positions close by 15:55 EST.
How do the Stocks drawdown and daily profit cap work?
The daily drawdown is 2.5% of the account size and trails intraday. It is a hard breach. The evaluation also has a 2.5% daily profit cap, using the same dollar amount as the daily drawdown. Exceeding the daily profit cap is a soft breach. The maximum drawdown is 3% of the account size, trails, and is a hard breach. For 25K, 50K, 100K and 150K accounts, the daily drawdown and daily profit cap are $625, $1,250, $2,500 and $3,750. The corresponding maximum drawdowns are $750, $1,500, $3,000 and $4,500.
When can I request a Stocks payout?
The first payout request may be submitted after the initial 14-day period, and later requests may be submitted every 14 days, provided the account remains eligible. The minimum request is $100. The base profit split is 80% to the trader and 20% to the firm. Three profitable trading days at 0.50% are required in both the evaluation and funded phases. The account locks after a payout unless the Lock-Upon-Payout Waiver add-on was purchased. Every request is reviewed before approval.
Which Stocks add-ons are available?
The available add-ons are the 90% Profit Share Upgrade at 15% of the plan price, the 33% Consistency Threshold at 20%, the 50% Consistency Threshold at 35%, Payout-on-Breach at 25%, and the Lock-Upon-Payout Waiver at 25%. The 33% and 50% consistency options are alternatives and cannot be combined. Add-ons are selected at checkout and are calculated from the regular plan price.
Prediction Markets
What Prediction Markets accounts can I buy?
Choose a 5K, 10K or 25K One Step Prediction Assessment. Regular fees are $95, $189 and $499. Use code PST for 25% off the plan fee: $71.25, $141.75 or $374.25. Optional add-ons cost extra.
What am I trading?
Buy Yes or No positions on event outcomes in the markets enabled for the program. Pricing and event data come through the Polymarket API. Not every market is available, and available markets can change. These accounts do not use margin or leverage.
Do I have to hold a position until the event ends?
No. You can close a held position before resolution. Your result depends on your entry, exit, size, fees and execution. If you hold until resolution, winning shares settle at $1 each and losing shares at $0 under that market’s rules. Short selling is not available.
Are there opening-price limits or commissions?
Opening orders must be within the permitted 20–80 cent range. You can close positions outside that range. A 1% commission applies to the notional value of each opening transaction. There is no closing commission.
What do I need to pass the assessment?
Reach the 20% profit target while following all account rules. The assessment has a 30-day limit, or 60 days with Double Time. A 5% consistency requirement applies in both the assessment and funded phases. Funded accounts do not have a profit target.
Is there a daily loss limit?
There is no separate daily loss limit. The account still has a 10% trailing equity-based maximum drawdown, plus its other rules. No daily limit does not mean unlimited room to lose.
Can an open position affect my drawdown?
Yes. Equity includes open positions, so unrealized gains can raise the trailing high-water mark. If equity later reaches or falls below the drawdown threshold, the account breaches. Watch account equity and the breach level in your dashboard, not just closed profits.
When can I request a payout, and what share do I receive?
Funded accounts have an 80% trader share, or 90% with the Profit Share upgrade. The initial payout delay is 7 days, and later requests may be made every 7 days while all requirements are met. Minimum requests are $100 on 5K, $200 on 10K and $500 on 25K. Eligibility and review still apply; a request interval is not a promised payment date.
What changes after a payout?
Once a payout is processed, the drawdown floor locks at the account’s starting balance. Keep equity above that floor when you continue trading. Plan your withdrawal and remaining risk room together.
Which add-ons are available?
Profit Share costs 15% of the regular plan fee and increases your funded trader share to 90%. Double Time costs 10% and extends the assessment limit to 60 days. Select your add-ons at purchase. No Consistency Upgrade is offered in the current PST selection.
What happens if I stop trading or break a hard rule?
Thirty consecutive days without trading can breach the account. A hard breach fails the assessment or closes a funded account, and gains may be forfeited under the terms. Funded accounts still have drawdown, consistency and other trading restrictions.
Can I trade several markets, and what if resolution is delayed?
Multiple markets are allowed, but account-level limits and platform restrictions still apply. Thin liquidity can affect fills and closing prices. Disputed outcomes, delays or unavailable data may lead to adjustments, restrictions, pauses or review under the program terms.
General
Which markets can I trade?
PropShopTrader offers Futures and Stocks accounts. Futures traders can choose Pro, Flex or Direct in 25K, 50K, 100K and 150K sizes. Stocks traders can choose Stocks Assessment in the same four account sizes. Each market has its own platforms, tradable instruments, risk rules and payout terms.
Which platforms are available?
Futures are available on Tickblaze and Rithmic. Stocks are available on PropX only. Stocks cannot be traded on Tickblaze or Rithmic. Choose the applicable platform when purchasing your account and review the current plan details for availability.
Do I have to use an account PropShopTrader provides?
Yes. PropShopTrader’s risk-management software is connected to the accounts it issues so performance and rule violations can be monitored. Outside accounts cannot be assessed. You are responsible for monitoring your account and breach levels in the trader dashboard.
How do resets, cancellations and refunds work?
Reset availability and cancellation or refund rights depend on the plan you purchased and are governed by the current Client Terms and Policies. Review those terms before you buy and contact the correct support team for account-specific requests.
Which login should I use, and how will the charge appear?
Use the new-account dashboard for accounts purchased through the current infrastructure. Use the legacy login for accounts created on the older PropShopTrader system. Charges appear on your statement under dashboardanalytix.com.
Who can take part, and how are taxes handled?
You must be at least 18 years old, or the applicable minimum legal age in your country. Subject to applicable law, traders from all countries except OFAC-listed countries may participate unless the Company applies another restriction. When trading a funded account, you are treated as an independent contractor and are responsible for all taxes on your gains.
How many accounts can I have active at one time?
Eligible Futures and Stocks accounts may count toward a combined PropShopTrader allocation of up to 1,000,000, subject to the current limits for each plan and the Client Terms and Policies. Review the current plan details before purchasing another account because availability and account combinations may be limited.
Can I trade Futures and Stocks at the same time?
Yes. You may hold eligible Futures and Stocks accounts at the same time, subject to the current account and allocation limits. Each account must be traded on its applicable platform and remains subject to its own market-specific rules, instrument list, risk limits and trading hours.
