| Stage | Goal | Reward Share | Leverage |
| Phase 1: Evaluation | 4% Profit Target | Practice Phase | 1:100 |
| Phase 2: Verification | 6% Profit Target | Verification Phase | 1:100 |
| Phase 3: Final Review | 6% Profit Target | Calibration Phase | 1:100 |
| Funded Stage | 6% Target Per Scale Step | 80% Reward + Fee Refund | 1:100 |
- Step 1: Low-Stress Validation
- Navigate three calm evaluation steps rather than facing heavy single-stage targets. With an initial profit target of only 4% in Step 1, you can trade carefully without feeling pressured to take outsized risks.
- Step 2: Secure Your Payouts & Refund
- Once you enter the Funded Stage, the profit restrictions drop.
-
- 100% Fee Refund: Your initial fee is fully refunded with your very first successful payout.
- 80% Performance Reward: Keep your standard 80% share of all simulated gains.
- High-Leverage Environment: Enjoy consistent 1:100 leverage throughout your entire journey, from day one to funding.
- Step 3: Synchronized Automatic Scaling Matrix
- No matter where you begin, your path converges at the peak. Every time you hit a 6% profit target on your funded account, you move to the next step. Larger starting balances act as an accelerator, jumping you straight into the higher tiers of the matrix:
