Gladiator Phase (Payouts)
The following information will help you understand the PropShopTrader payout model and the foundation as to how we structure payouts for the Gladiator Phase. Please note, only traders in the Gladiator Phase are eligible to receive trader payouts.
Before we cover the payout tables below, it’s important to understand the foundation of our risk model as a company, and why it’s such a better model for both traders and us alike.
Instead of doing what other firm do, which is not ideal for traders, we looked to pioneer a completely new type of trader payout framework that aims to do the following:
- Get you paid faster
- Get you paid more often
- Get you paid more money
Important Notes To Consider About Other Prop Firms:
Even the firms that say “We Don’t Cap Payouts” have set risk assessment periods in place to limit what they pay you over a 1-3 month period. Because of high failure rates, the likelihood of you staying active until they remove the risk assessment period is next to nil, so this is really just a fancy way of saying, “We’re capping your payouts differently!!”
This is where PropShopTrader aims to change the space! It’s important to understand that companies must balance the need to manage the firm risk for solvency and longevity, with the needs of the traders. In doing so, we can create a model where everyone wins!
The PropShopTrader payout model allows each trader to:
- Get paid weekly — after completing 6 trading days, with at least 3 in your payout request week — so it becomes a career faster
- Get paid more than any other firm, even during the risk assessment period.
- Offer large upside potential, not only in Gladiator Phase but with the opportunity to get called up to REAL PROP.
Payouts per account are capped on a weekly basis, determined by the size of the sim account. Despite these caps, traders can earn up to 2X more per account compared to other firms, with the potential for up to 3 max payouts. The minimum payout amount is $100 per PTSA. Traders must meet this threshold to request any payout during the Gladiator Phase. The Gladiator Phase serves as a period of evaluation, during which traders’ skills are continually assessed. This evaluation period mitigates risk for the company while also allowing traders the opportunity to prove their capabilities and establish a track record.
Some traders will question: Why are there payout caps during this phase?
It’s important to recognize that even in the Gladiator Phase, traders are considered high-risk to the firm. This cautious approach ensures that both traders and the company are protected, particularly in a synthetic trading environment where payouts are made based on simulated accounts.
Traders have the option to offset payout caps by trading up to a maximum of 10 accounts, inclusive of both Warrior and Gladiator accounts, thereby accessing more payouts across their portfolio. Additionally, traders can explore different drawdown options based on their evaluations during the Warrior Phase and into the Gladiator Phase.
It’s important to note that once a trader has proven themselves during the Gladiator Phase, they may have the opportunity to move to REAL PROP. In the event our risk management team deems the trader worthy and ready, they will no longer face payout caps on the account, as the REAL PROP program operates on a different payout structure. This is discussed on our website here.

* Payout Eligibility Balance is the minimum required account balance to request a payout. This full amount must remain intact — you can only withdraw the profit above this threshold. Traders are not allowed to request a payout into this buffer.
** Minimum Account Balance is the threshold your balance must remain above once your trailing drawdown is fixed.
*** Overall Payout Potential before the account is called to Real Prop.
Note: Your first payout requires 6 trading days in total, including at least 3 days during the week you request. After that, payouts follow the weekly cadence with a 3-day-per-week requirement.

IMPORTANT NOTE: These payout caps apply only during the Gladiator Phase. During this time, we continue to closely evaluate your performance, even though payouts are active. Once you successfully request 3 max payouts on an account you will transition to the Real Prop with up to a 90/10% profit split.
Comparison To Other Firms:
Even with weekly payout caps, traders have the potential to earn up to 2X more than other firms during the Gladiator Phase. Unlike firms that cap monthly payouts prolonging payouts at lower amounts, PropShopTrader offers more frequent and higher earning potential right from the start.
Trader Payout Opportunity Example:
Consider a trader trading 10 PTSA accounts each with a $50K account size:
- Each account pays out a maximum of $3000.
- Total potential earnings: $30,000 (10 accounts x $3000)
Payout Failure Rate Disclaimer:
While the payout model presents significant earning opportunities, it’s essential to acknowledge the high failure rate in trading. The figures provided represent an ideal scenario, and achieving maximum potential earnings is unlikely due to the difficulty in trading. PropShopTrader continues to evaluate traders’ performance and risk management throughout their engagement with the firm.
What’s Next After Gladiator?
Path To REAL PROP: (Real Money Trading – With up to a 90/10 Split)
The entire goal of every inspiring trader is to make it to REAL PROP. This is equally the goal of the Company. The Warrior Phase (evaluations) and the Gladiator (PTSA) trading accounts are merely opportunities for traders and the Company to evaluate and assess each traders’ abilities, skills and risk management capabilities for trading.
Once a Trader is in the Gladiator Phase, the Company risk team closely monitors every trader for the skills necessary to move them to REAL PROP. Some Traders will possess the skills quickly and be called up to REAL PROP sooner. During the Gladiator Phase, payouts are capped based on the details above in this agreement. This contract serves as the Gladiator Phase agreement, and in the event a Trader gets called up to REAL PROP, this contract will be canceled, and a separate new one will be issued for REAL PROP.
If and when a Trader gets called up to REAL PROP and is offered a career as a REAL PROP TRADER, they are transitioned to either employee or subcontractor status with the company, depending on jurisdiction. Traders within the EU are offered a base salary, while those outside the EU will not receive a base salary. In addition, all traders are eligible for up to a 90/10 incentive fee structure based on account growth. The REAL PROP payouts are not from the actual trading account, but instead from the company as a base salary (where applicable) & incentive fee.
All of the same rules pertaining to company policies and risk management are transferred over and still in effect and new rules apply based on Live Real Money Account Trading. The main upside is that once a Trader proves themselves consistently in REAL PROP, they can benefit from the Company’s scaling plan as defined by the risk team and each Trader’s abilities.

Gladiator Terms and Rules
-
Paid Trading Sim Account (PTSA)
Gladiators are eligible for a PTSA, which are paid simulator accounts.
-
Account Transition
Traders who advance from the Warrior Phase to the Gladiator Phase will receive a new account to continue their journey in the Gladiator Phase. Only the Gladiator and Path 2 Prop accounts will remain as the same account.
-
Drawdown Protection
To have Drawdown Protection in the Gladiator Account, it must have been purchased in the Warrior Account. Once purchased in the Warrior Phase, it is mandatory to purchase it in the Gladiator Phase as the accounts are the same and will be linked from Phase 1 to Phase 2.
-
Intraday Trailing Drawdown
The Intraday Trailing Drawdown stops when it equals the trader’s initial account balance.
Payout Eligibility
Gladiators must meet minimum account balance requirements to be eligible for a payout. This includes maintaining the Payout Eligibility Balance, which ensures the full trailing drawdown (TDD) buffer remains intact at the time of a payout request.
Traders can still trade down to the now‑capped Intraday Trailing Drawdown, but payouts may only be requested on profits above that threshold. You cannot withdraw into your trailing drawdown buffer.
Keep in mind, once you’ve hit the required eligibility balance, the trailing drawdown stops trailing (i.e., it becomes fixed), but the minimum balance must still be maintained to remain payout eligible.
Activation Fee
There is a one-time fee to be paid when a trader gets promoted from a Warrior to a Gladiator. These fees vary by account size.
Note: Your first payout requires 6 trading days in total, including at least 3 days during the week you request. After that, payouts follow the weekly cadence with a 3-day-per-week requirement.
Now we will demonstrate your payout scenarios and eligibility for each example:
Trader Payout Eligibility Condition
- Consider a Gladiator trading a $50,000 Account with an Intraday Trailing Drawdown amount of $2,500.
- In this scenario, the Gladiator has not acquired any additional Drawdown Protection, resulting in a Trailing Drawdown of $2500.
- To qualify for payouts, the trader must generate sufficient profit to cover the trailing drawdown threshold plus the $100 admin fee and have profits above the Payout Eligibility Balance Threshold.
- Once the trader surpasses their drawdown threshold (in this instance, $2500 + $100), the trailing drawdown is locked at the initial account balance of $50,100.
- Gladiators are eligible for weekly payouts only if the trailing drawdown exceeds the initial balance + the $100 fee.
Example 1: Ineligibility for Payout
- A Gladiator is trading in a $50,000 Account with an Intraday Trailing Drawdown amount of $2,500 and a Weekly Payout Cap of $1,000.
- The Intraday Trailing Drawdown is capped at Gladiator’s Initial Balance of $50,000 plus a $100 admin fee, totaling $50,100.
- Throughout the week, the Gladiator trades the minimum required 3 days, resulting in an account balance of $52,000 by week’s end.
- However, since the Minimum Account Target for Payout Eligibility equals $52,600 in this example, the Gladiator is ineligible for a payout.
Example 2: Eligibility for Payout but not Max Weekly Payout
- A Gladiator is trading in a $50,000 Account with an Intraday Trailing Drawdown amount of $2,500 and a Weekly Payout Cap of $1,000.
- The Intraday Trailing Drawdown is capped at the Gladiator’s Initial Balance of $50,000 plus a $100 admin fee, amounting to $50,100.
- After hitting the Payout Eligibility of $52,600, the trailing drawdown is capped at $50,100.
- Now, lets say the account balance is $53,000: Given that the account balance is above the $52,600 payout eligibility threshold, the Gladiator can withdraw up to $400 in remaining profit between $53,000 and $52,600.
- However, to qualify for the max weekly payout, the Gladiator would have needed at least $53,600 ($52,600 payout eligibility threshold + $1,000 max payout).
Example 3: Eligibility for First Payout After Purchase
- After purchasing a $50K Gladiator account, the trader hits the Payout Eligibility Balance of $52,600, locking the Trailing Drawdown at $50,100. They continue trading and finish the week with a balance of $54,000.
- The trader has completed 6 total trading days, with at least 3 of those days in the week of the payout request — meeting the first payout eligibility requirement.
- Since their final balance is above the Payout Eligibility Threshold ($52,600), they are eligible to receive the full weekly payout of $1,000. The remaining post-payout balance of $53,000 continues to stay safely above the threshold, ensuring payout approval.
Available Day Trading Sessions
Futures
- Trading starts at 6:00 PM EST and all positions must be liquidated by 4:45 PM EST the following day.
- Trading account balance target has been reached.
- Minimum Trading Days: To qualify for your first payout, you must trade for at least 6 total trading days, with at least 3 of those within the payout request week. For subsequent weekly payouts, you must trade on at least 3 separate days within the same payout week.
- Example: If a trader places one trade per week for 3 consecutive weeks, they won’t qualify for any payout, because the first payout requires 6 trading days, including 3 in the payout week.
- The trailing drawdown is locked at the initial balance plus $100 admin fee.
- Trade available products per asset class (Click Here for PDFs).
- Trade within max position sizes.
- No Daily Drawdown Limit (within Max Drawdown).
- Abide by Stop Loss & Drawdown Limits.
- Drawdown Protection Offered (must have purchased upgrade in warrior phase).
- Consistency Rule: We enforce a 30% consistency rule. Upon initiating a payout request, the profit derived from a single trading day must not exceed 30% of the total realized profit since your last approved payout (or since account activation, if no prior payout).
- This percentage resets at the start of each week if a payout was taken.
- The minimum payout amount is $100 per PTSA. Traders must meet this threshold to request any payout during the Gladiator Phase.
- Follow our prohibited trader policies (CLICK HERE).
- While in the Gladiator Phase, traders may be called up to REAL PROP based on performance, consistency, and overall payout history (e.g., 3 payouts on one account, or 30 payouts across all accounts). We encourage you to trade well and strive for greatness!
