The Contract Scaling Plan applies only to funded Elite ACCESS accounts. There are no scaling restrictions during the evaluation phase.
How scaling works
Once your account is funded, your maximum contract size increases as your account grows. Your allowed contract size is determined by your end-of-day (EOD) closing balance and updates once per trading day.
Key principles
Scaling applies only to funded accounts. There are no scaling rules during the evaluation.
Contract limits update once per day (EOD).
Scaling is based on simulated profit.
You must stay within your allowed contract size at all times.
Maximum contracts (fully scaled)
Account size | Max contracts |
$25,000 | 1 mini or 10 micros |
$50,000 | 3 minis or 30 micros |
$100,000 | 5 minis or 50 micros |
$150,000 | 7 minis or 70 micros |
Scaling levels (funded only)
You start at Level 1 and unlock more contracts as your simulated profit grows. 1 mini equals 10 micros.
Level | $25,000 | $50,000 | $100,000 | $150,000 |
Level 1 (start) | 1 mini (full allocation) | 1 mini | 2 minis | 3 minis |
Level 2 | – | 2 minis from +$1,500 | 3 minis from +$1,500 | 4 minis from +$1,500 |
Level 3 | – | 3 minis from +$2,000 (full allocation) | 4 minis from +$2,000 | 5 minis from +$2,500 |
Level 4 | – | – | 5 minis from +$3,000 (full allocation) | 6 minis from +$3,500 |
Level 5 | – | – | – | 7 minis from +$4,500 (full allocation) |
How scaling is calculated
Your scaling level is determined by your funded account closing balance, your total simulated profit and your end-of-day equity. Contract increases are applied the following trading day once your closing balance qualifies.
Intraday profits do not unlock a higher level.
Only end-of-day results are used.
Trader responsibility
It is your responsibility to monitor and follow the contract scaling rules at all times. Exceeding your allowed contract size is a rule violation. If scaling rules are not followed:
Trades may be rejected or reduced
The account may be flagged for review
Profits from violating trades may be removed
Payout requests may be denied
Compliance with scaling rules is required for payout eligibility.
Important clarifications
Scaling applies per individual account. Contract limits do not combine across accounts.
Scaling is based on simulated profit only.
Limits are determined using the end-of-day balance.
Scaling does not override other risk rules such as the Daily Loss Limit and the trailing drawdown (MLL).
