Fast Pass Funded Sim- Route to Funded Live

Upon a trader’s 5th payout request, the Funded Sim account will transition to a Funded Live account.

If a trader is demonstrating consistency in the funded sim account, TradeDay may move the trader to funded Live before the 5th payout request. 

What Happens During the Transition?

The existing Funded Sim account will be closed

A new Funded Live account will be opened with:

A $0 starting balance

The same End-of-Day (EOD) drawdown will be assigned from the original evaluation account tier.

Funded Live accounts will begin with the same position limits originally assigned to the Funded Sim account:

$25K Account: 1 contract

$50K Account: 2 contracts

$100K Account: 3 contracts

$150K Account: 4 contracts

Any future increases to position limits will be granted solely at the discretion of the TradeDay trading team.

Funded Live Account Limits

Each trader may hold a maximum of 5 Funded Live accounts at any given time.

Withdrawals and Profit Split

How the buffer works: 

Every Funded Live account starts at $0. Using a $50K account as an example, the TMD is $1500, so the floor starts at -$1500. As your balance grows, the floor trails up dollar-for-dollar. To clear the buffer, you need to grow the account to $2000, which moves the floor from -$1500 up to +$500. That +$500 is your slippage buffer, now locked in and protected.

When you can actually withdraw: Once you've cleared the buffer at $2000, you can withdraw. Part of this ($500) is your protected buffer, not tradable capital, so you need to leave more than $500 in the account to have actual money to trade with on top of it. For example, you could withdraw $500, leaving a $1500 balance: $500 of that stays protected as your buffer, and the remaining $1000 is what you trade with. The account balance can never touch or drop below $500. If it does, the account closes and what's left of the $500 is paid out to you.

All withdrawals from Funded Live accounts are subject to a 90/10 profit split, with the trader receiving 90% of profits.

Funded Live Account Loss Policy

Traders who lose a Funded Live account will be placed into a mandatory 3-month cooling-off period. During this time, they will not be eligible to participate in TradeDay evaluations.

After the cooling-off period ends, traders may apply for new evaluations by emailing us at:
