Flex has no buffer, so the 5 winning days are the real gate. A day only counts if it closes at or above the size’s minimum ($200 on 50K). After each approved reward the winning-day counter resets to zero, and from the second reward you also need the net profit shown since the last one.

The request is capped twice: at half of your available profit and at the dollar cap. With $3,000 of profit on a 50K account you can ask for $1,500, not $2,000.

This is a fixed-size product: at most three rewards of up to $1,000 / $1,500 / $2,000 each, then the account closes with no fourth cycle. Only one of these funded accounts trades at a time; any other passed account waits paused until the active one closes.

The general Payout Policy (updated September 30, 2026) describes a single Flex product with the Daily Loss caps above and a net profit rule for payouts #2 to #5. The newer Flex No Daily Loss FAQ lists its own lower caps and does not mention a 50% limit or a net profit rule. The account selector calls the cap “the fixed reward paid for this account size”. Check your dashboard before the second request.

Only profit above the threshold can be withdrawn, and the buffer must stay intact when you submit. A 50K account at $53,000 has $900 available; at $54,000 it has $1,900, but the daily cap still limits that day’s request to $1,100.

The $500 minimum applies to the amount above the buffer. A 50K account sitting at $52,400 has profit, but only $300 is withdrawable, so it cannot request yet.

Standard can be passed in one day because the evaluation has no consistency rule, but the 40% rule moves to the funded account. If your best day is 40% or more of the cycle’s profit, the payout button stays unavailable until more profit brings the ratio under 40%. The account is not breached.

The first payout cap is lower than later ones. On 100K the first request tops out at $2,500 and later ones at $3,000.

The profit goal is larger than the cap. A 50K trader must make $3,000 to ask for at most $2,000; the other $1,000 stays in the balance. Profits used for one payout do not count toward the next goal, so each cycle starts from zero.

Because no single day may reach 20% of the cycle’s profit, you need at least six profitable days per payout cycle in practice. Five equal days would each be exactly 20%, which the rule does not allow.

Live pays daily with no cap but at 80%, not 90%. Flex No Daily Loss accounts have no path to live. Any funded account with zero rewards does not move to live: its fee is refunded only if more than half of its maximum drawdown is left, and open evaluations are closed.
