Tradeify rules by account size (25K, 50K, 100K, 150K): Select Evaluation targets, drawdown and Daily vs Flex payouts

Every dollar amount and label in this guide is copied from the Select, Growth and Lightning plan cards embedded on tradeify.co (homepage Last Published 15 October 2026 15:13 GMT in the page HTML), reading the default-selected Tradovate broker tab unless a discrepancy across broker tabs is called out below, and from the funded trader agreement on the same domain. On 15 October 2026 plain curl and headless Chrome hit a Cloudflare challenge (HTTP 403) on help.tradeify.co. On 18 October 2026 we read Select Evaluation Accounts and Select Flex / Select Daily Payout Policies in a normal browser; on 19 October 2026 the same articles were readable via a rendered markdown reader. The minimum-days, payout-timing, profit-target, drawdown and consistency quotes in this guide come from those Help Center articles; other Help Center articles are still unchecked. The funded trader agreement says the Help Center is the binding rulebook for many parameters; treat the card figures as what Tradeify published on its marketing site on the check date, and confirm at checkout and in your dashboard. We do not invent formulas the cards omit.

What this means for you: Trust the card figures, the agreement text and the two help-center articles we quote (read 18 October 2026); treat other Help Center rules as unread until you can open them yourself.

Select is Tradeify's featured Evaluation path on the homepage (the Select plan cards are marked selected). Fees are one-time: $109 on 25K, $165 on 50K, $265 on 100K and $369 on 150K. Profit targets are $1,500, $3,000, $6,000 and $9,000. Trailing Max Drawdown (EOD) is $1,000, $2,000, $3,000 and $4,500. Our subtraction from the account size gives starting floors of $24,000 on 25K, $48,000 on 50K, $97,000 on 100K and $145,500 on 150K. Our arithmetic: that drawdown is two-thirds of the profit target on 25K and 50K, and exactly half of the target on 100K and 150K. Daily Loss Limit is None on the Evaluation card for every Select size. Consistency is listed as 40% on every size; the card does not define the formula. Activation Fee is None. Max contracts are 1 mini / 10 micros, 4 minis / 40 micros, 8 minis / 80 micros and 12 minis / 120 micros. Reset fees are $75, $109, $169 and $239; on the Tradovate (and WealthCharts) tab each carries the card tooltip "Allowed up to 10 resets per month". The homepage Select hero lists "End-of-day drawdown - no intraday traps". An official @Tradeify post on 25 September 2026 described Select as having no intraday drawdown ever, no consistency rule on funded, and daily payouts; that matches the Evaluation Trailing Max Drawdown (EOD) label and the funded Consistency None / Daily rows below.

What this means for you: Pick a size by target, Trailing Max Drawdown (EOD) and contract cap first; the one-time fee and reset fee scale with that choice.

The funded trader agreement names Select Daily and Select Flex funded accounts. The Select plan cards expose two funded rule sets we map to those names: rule1 (Payout Frequency Daily) and rule2 (Payout Frequency 5 days). On 50K, Select Daily shows Max Payout $1,250, Consistency None, Daily Loss Limit $1,000 and Max Drawdown (EOD) $2,000. Select Flex shows Max Payout $2,500, Consistency None, Daily Loss Limit None on the funded card and Max Drawdown (EOD) $2,000. Across sizes, Select Daily Max Payout is $600 / $1,250 / $1,750 / $2,500 and Select Flex is $1,250 / $2,500 / $3,500 / $4,500. Our arithmetic: Flex minus Daily Max Payout is $650 / $1,250 / $1,750 / $2,000 by size (not a flat double). Select Daily Max Drawdown (EOD) is $1,000 / $2,000 / $2,500 / $3,500; Select Flex Max Drawdown (EOD) is $1,000 / $2,000 / $3,000 / $4,500. Our reading: Flex funded drawdown matches the Evaluation Trailing Max Drawdown (EOD) on every size, while Select Daily funded drawdown matches on 25K and 50K and drops $500 below Evaluation on 100K and $1,000 below on 150K. Our arithmetic: the Select Daily Daily Loss Limit ($500 / $1,000 / $1,250 / $1,750) is half the Select Daily drawdown on every size. The Max Payout cells on the four published sizes have no tooltip, so we do not add "per request" or "per day". The agreement says the Flex versus Daily choice is permanent and irrevocable per funded account. The same @Tradeify post's "$2,500 max payout with flex" matches the 50K Select Flex Max Payout card; the post does not name an account size.

What this means for you: Choose Daily for more frequent, smaller capped payouts with a funded Daily Loss Limit, or Flex for larger caps every 5 days with no funded Daily Loss Limit on the card — the choice sticks.

Tradeify's help center (Select Evaluation Accounts, updated 17 October 2026, and Select Flex and Select Daily Payout Policies, updated 18 October 2026; we read both on 18 October 2026) adds the timing rules the plan cards leave out. Minimum trading days on the Select Evaluation: "3 days (due to consistency rule)". The 40% rule is defined there as "No single trading day can represent more than 40% of your total profit", and a 50% consistency add-on "makes it possible to pass in 2 days". Select Flex payout frequency: "Every 5 winning days", with a winning day on the 50K meaning "50K Account: $150 minimum profit per day". Select Daily payout frequency: "Daily eligibility after meeting buffer requirement", with "50K Account: $2,100 buffer" and "Minimum payout: $250". The help center also says the 40% consistency requirement only applies during the evaluation phase on Select accounts. So the fewest days to a first payout on a 50K Select Flex account is 5 winning days of $150 or more; Select Daily has no day count, only the $2,100 buffer to clear first.

What this means for you: Plan on at least 3 trading days to pass the 50K Select Evaluation, then 5 winning days of $150+ for a first Flex payout, or clear the $2,100 buffer for Daily.

Four card quirks are published as-is. First, Select 100K Select Daily Max Drawdown (EOD) is $2,500 on the funded card, while Select Evaluation Trailing Max Drawdown (EOD) and Select Flex Max Drawdown (EOD) are both $3,000 for 100K. Second, Growth 25K Reset Fee is shown as $60 with $70 struck through on the card. Third, wording for "5 days" / "5 Days" and "1 mini" / "1 minis" varies by plan card; we quote each card's own spelling. Fourth, on the Tradesea broker tab (not the default-selected Tradovate tab) the Select 25K and 50K reset tooltips say "Allowed up to 10 resets one time" instead of "Allowed up to 10 resets per month"; 100K and 150K still say per month on Tradesea, and WealthCharts matches Tradovate. We do not normalize these away.

What this means for you: When two cards disagree, we print both; the 100K Daily drawdown gap is the one that changes size comparison the most.

Growth is a separate one-time Evaluation. Prices are $99 (25K), $145 (50K), $255 (100K) and $369 (150K). Profit targets match Select: $1,500, $3,000, $6,000, $9,000. Trailing Max Drawdown (EOD) is $1,000, $2,000, $3,500 and $5,000 — note 100K and 150K differ from Select. Daily Loss Limit is $600, $1,250, $2,500 and $3,750, each with the card tooltip "Daily Loss Limit increases to Trailing Max Drawdown when account profit hits 6%". Consistency on the Evaluation card is None. Activation Fee is None. Max contracts match Select's 1 minis / 10 micros, 4 minis / 40 micros, 8 minis / 80 micros and 12 minis / 120 micros (Growth cards use "1 minis" on 25K). Reset fees are $60 (25K, with $70 struck through), $95, $169 and $229. Funded Growth shows Payout Frequency 5 Days, Max Accounts 5, Consistency 35%, and the same Daily Loss Limit, Max Drawdown (EOD) and Max Contracts as the Evaluation card for that size.

What this means for you: Growth is a separate path with its own drawdown and a funded Consistency of 35%; do not mix its figures into the Select tables.

Lightning Funded skips the Evaluation: the homepage cards list an empty evaluation array and only funded rules. One-time prices are $345 (25K), $492 (50K), $660 (100K) and $796 (150K). Every size shows Payout Frequency 5 Days and Max Accounts 5. Consistency starts at 20%, with the card tooltip "Consistency requirement moves to 25% for Payout 2 and 30% for Payout 3+". Daily Loss Limit is None on 25K; $1,250 on 50K, $2,500 on 100K and $3,000 on 150K (50K–150K carry the same 6% profit tooltip as Growth). Max Drawdown (EOD) is $1,000, $2,000, $4,000 and $5,250. Max contracts are 1 mini / 10 micros, 4 minis / 40 micros, 8 minis / 80 micros and 12 minis / 120 micros.

What this means for you: Lightning skips the Evaluation and starts with a rising Consistency ladder; compare its one-time price to Select only if you want instant funded access.

The funded trader agreement states that unless otherwise specified for a particular account type, profits withdrawn are split 90% to the trader and 10% to the company — the 90/10 default under the funded trader agreement. It also states a maximum of five funded accounts per individual and household across all funded account types combined (including Advanced Challenge, Growth, Lightning Funded, Select Flex and Select Daily). The agreement names an Advanced Challenge path, but the homepage plan cards we fetched do not publish Advanced Challenge numeric cells, so Advanced figures are omitted here.

What this means for you: Plan for at most five funded accounts across every Tradeify funded type in your household, at the 90/10 default unless a plan says otherwise.

Using only the Select card figures above: Trailing Max Drawdown (EOD) divided by profit target is two-thirds on 25K ($1,000 of $1,500) and 50K ($2,000 of $3,000), and exactly half on 100K ($3,000 of $6,000) and 150K ($4,500 of $9,000). Starting floors by our subtraction are $24,000 / $48,000 / $97,000 / $145,500. Select Daily funded Max Drawdown (EOD) equals the Evaluation drawdown on 25K and 50K and is $500 lower on 100K ($2,500 vs $3,000) and $1,000 lower on 150K ($3,500 vs $4,500); Select Flex funded Max Drawdown (EOD) matches the Evaluation on every size. The Select Daily Daily Loss Limit is half the Select Daily drawdown on every size. Flex Max Payout exceeds Daily Max Payout by $650 / $1,250 / $1,750 / $2,000 — not a uniform double. Point values $2 / $5 / $20 / $50 used in the losing-trade ladder are CME contract specs, not Tradeify figures.

What this means for you: Use the ratios to compare size efficiency; they are our divisions of Tradeify's published dollars, not a Tradeify claim.

Tradeify's News Trading article (read on 18 October 2026) says: We do not have any rules against or guidelines around trading news events. News trading is allowed with no restrictions, at your own risk: Tradeify warns about slippage and says never to use the Daily Loss Limit as a stop loss, because system protection may not be effective during extreme volatility. On funded accounts over 50% of your trades must be longer than 10 seconds and over 50% of your profit must come from trades held longer than 10 seconds (the microscalping rule), or you cannot request a payout; it does not apply during an evaluation.

What this means for you: You can trade CPI, FOMC or NFP on any Tradeify account; just expect slippage, set your own stop instead of leaning on the Daily Loss Limit, and on funded accounts avoid many sub-10-second trades.

Tradeify's Guidelines for Traders (read on 18 October 2026) say bots and algorithms are allowed if you are the sole owner and it is not a high-frequency trading (HFT) bot: you must be able to prove no one else has access to or is using it, Tradeify scans for similar orders on other accounts and may ask for a live video of you enabling the code on your own PC, and using the same bot across multiple firms is against Tradeify's policy. Its WealthCharts Trade Copier article (dated 21 July 2026, read on 18 October 2026) says copy trading is allowed only between accounts you personally own and manage. Copying trades from or to accounts owned by other people is prohibited, and all copied accounts must trade in the same direction: an inverted copier, or a lead account flattened while followers stay open, creates opposing positions, which Tradeify treats as hedging.

What this means for you: A bot you own and run only at Tradeify is fine if it isn't HFT; copy trades only across your own accounts, all in the same direction.

The Select and Growth Consistency percentages (40% Evaluation, 35% Growth funded, 20%/25%/30% Lightning) are shown as bare percentages without a definition of best-day versus total-profit or similar. (The help center now defines the 40% Select Evaluation rule; see the help-center section above.) The Max Payout cells on the four published sizes have no unit tooltip. multiConsistencyData prices appear in the Select card JSON without a plain-language label on the card face we can quote, so those addon prices are omitted. Promo codes such as GEMS live on the Tradeify firm page and are not part of this rules table. A hidden 300K Select card in the homepage JSON (isVisible false) still carries the legacy V1 figures, so we do not publish it; the 300K Select V2 was a limited-amount Forge drop, and tradeify.co/forge shows it as sold out on Oct 19, 2026.

What this means for you: Do not invent a Consistency formula, a Max Payout unit, or Advanced Challenge numbers the cards never printed.
