Test / PRO $150K

Further points from TakeProfitTrader's own rules.

Evaluation

No single trading day may account for 50% or more of total net profit: not a fail condition, keep trading until total profit grows enough that the big day falls below the threshold. Removed entirely once funded (a rare direction: most firms tighten consistency at the funded stage; TPT drops it).

Evaluation

1 minute before, during, and 1 minute after: FOMC statements (Wed 2pm ET), Non-Farm Payroll (monthly, Fri 8:30am ET), CPI. Also product-specific: Crude Oil Inventories (Crude Oil), Bond Auctions (10-Year Note, 30-Year Bond).

Funded

No open positions or orders from 1 minute before to 1 minute after FOMC, NFP and CPI releases.

Funded

No profit target once funded. Must trade at least 1 day per calendar week (Sun-Fri) to keep the PRO account active: an ongoing activity requirement, not a one-time minimum-days count. Must exit all open positions before a CME price limit up/down is reached, or the account is liquidated. Additional rules reported to apply only at the funded stage (not among the original "six Test rules"): no bots/automated trading, a weekly trading requirement, a limit-up/limit-down obligation.

Payout

80/20 on PRO; 90/10 once graduated to PRO+ (live).

Payout

No trading bots/algorithms: all trades must be manually executed. No counter-positions (opposite-direction positions in the same or closely related products) across Test/PRO/PRO+.

Payout

PRO is reached via a flat $130 one-time activation fee (same across all sizes) once Test is passed, not a separate size-based purchase. Withdrawal buffer on PRO equals the max drawdown amount for this size (must clear it before profits above it are withdrawable): moderate confidence. Unlimited simultaneous Test accounts; up to 5 active PRO and 5 active PRO+; up to 10 passed Tests may be activated within any 30-day period. Buffer zone: the payout buffer equals the account's max drawdown amount: e.g. a $50K account with a $2,000 drawdown must reach $52,000 before withdrawing at the full 80% split; withdrawing inside the buffer is allowed if the account is terminated, but the split drops to 50% if the account was active less than 60 trading days (a real penalty clause worth surfacing). PRO+ is a real third, live-capital stage beyond PRO: not directly purchasable or target-triggered, promotion is entirely at TPT's discretion (reviewing consistency, risk management, execution, discipline); reported as a fully automated, no-cost, no-application TPT-managed process since 18 March 2026. PRO+ terms: 90/10 split, EOD drawdown (reverts from PRO's intraday), no buffer zone, eased news restrictions, reset not available. There is no maximum payout cap on a PRO account: once a track record is established the full available cushion can be withdrawn.
