Firm notes

Futures-only prop firm. Full lineup per the firm's own FAQ: Prime, Elite, Instant ("New Instant Challenges"), a Live graduate-to-real-capital program, and a Custom configurator (pick your own split/drawdown-type/payout-cadence at checkout). Only ELITE and INSTANT are modeled here. **Elite**: evaluation -> funded. EOD trailing drawdown, locks at starting balance once reached. Real per-size oddity, confirmed directly (not a transcription error): the $25K size's profit target is $1,250, which is 5% of balance -- every other size (50K/100K/150K) uses a flat 6% ($3,000/$6,000/$9,000). $25K also uniquely lets the trader choose consistency % (40 or 50) and daily loss limit (none, or a $600 soft lock) at checkout -- modeled as a real option group, unlike every other size which has a fixed 40% consistency and no DLL. **Instant** ("New Instant Challenges"): no evaluation, instant funded access. No daily drawdown, only a max drawdown (dollar figure not stated in the source reviewed -- real gap, left NULL). Consistency starts at 20%, rises to 25% after the 2nd approved payout and 30% after the 3rd -- EXCEPT the $25K size, which is explicitly exempt from this scaling and stays fixed at 20%. Minimum 10 trading days before the first payout; must trade at least once every 7 calendar days to stay active. Prime (2 of its 4 likely sizes had confirmed numbers, not enough to model safely) and Custom (a configurator, not a fixed product) are NOT modeled as plans -- see the verification checklist. Live is a graduate-to-real-capital program, noted only, same treatment as every other firm's live-graduation program in this database. Real gap across both modeled types: purchase price not found via a reliable primary source at any size -- left NULL throughout.
