The Hidden Rule: Lifetime Cap
⚠️ Independent Audit Finding
On their Simulated Funded accounts, there is often a 'Lifetime Payout Cap' (e.g., $100,000 max withdrawal per account). While $100k is a lot, for a career trader, this is a hard ceiling.
Community Sentiment
"I paid the premium for straight-to-funded. It was nerve-wracking knowing I could blow $400 in one trade, but skipping the eval stress was worth it."
"The lifetime cap is a bummer, but let's be real, 99% of people never withdraw $100k anyway."
