Our full notes on Take Profit Trader’s rules. Verify on the firm’s site — these change frequently.

Rules overview

1-step Test (EOD trailing drawdown, no daily loss limit) -> PRO Live (intraday trailing, 80/20 split) -> PRO+ by invitation only.

PRO+ advancement is a holistic discretionary review of consistency, risk management, execution patterns and discipline over time - the firm states there is no single threshold and the decision is "made solely at the discretion of Take Profit Trader"; an official invitation arrives by email and setup takes several days.

Bots/algos banned on every account type - manual execution only.

Trade copiers ARE allowed across accounts you own (approved list: Tradesyncer, TradeCopia, Affordable Indicators, Replikanto Flowbot Compliance Edition, platform-native tools); copying between different users is prohibited.

Test: 6% target, 3 min trading days (cut from 5 on 2026-08-17; tests bought before that date still owe 5), 50% best-day consistency (exceeding it does not fail you - your goal becomes more than your best day's net P/L x 2), news unrestricted.

PRO/PRO+: flat 1 min before/during/after FOMC, NFP and CPI (the instrument-specific crude-inventory and bond-auction bans were dropped 2026-09-22). Positions auto-close 4:55 PM ET; nothing held between sessions.

Max position 3/6/9/12/15 contracts (or 30/60/90/120/150 micros) by size. Commissions $4.50 per round turn per contract, $1.50 on micros. Day-one daily withdrawals on PRO once the buffer is cleared.

Strengths & watch-outs

What works in your favour, and the quirks, fees, hidden rules and operational catches we found in Take Profit Trader’s rules and FAQ. Always verify with the firm before purchase.

Strengths

  • +High payout split (80% (PRO) / 90% (PRO+ Live, by invitation))

Watch out for

  • !
    No EAs/automation — manual trading only
  • !
    Evaluations went from 5 minimum trading days to 3 on 2026-08-17 and the firm calls it a permanent program change, not a sale perk - but it only covers tests PURCHASED from Aug 17 onward; tests bought earlier, and every reset attached to them, still owe the old 5 days
    Read moreShow less
  • !
    The homepage promo code is replaced, not stacked, and it rotates BOTH ways: NOFEE40 gave way to NOFEE50 and then to the 50AND3 flash sale, and when that ended on 2026-08-25 the banner reverted to NOFEE40; on 2026-11-02 the Early Black Friday sale swapped it for NOFEE50 again (until 9 November).
    Read moreShow less

    A retired code stops working the day the banner changes - always read the code off the live banner rather than an aggregator, and do not assume a code is gone for good just because a sale displaced it

  • !
    Drawdown type FLIPS between phases: Test = EOD trailing -> PRO = intraday trailing (unrealised gains raise the floor in real time, so wicks can kill an account) -> PRO+ reverts to EOD trailing
  • !
    LIMIT UP/DOWN: if a CME price limit is hit while you still hold a position, you lose the account — the firm has to hedge against you and says so openly
  • !
    Max position size is a hard rule (UTP #2): 3/6/9/12/15 contracts by account size
  • !
    Positions are force-closed at 4:55 PM ET; the trading day ends 5 PM ET and reopens 6 PM ET, with post-6 PM trades counted toward the NEXT day
  • !
    PRO+ only: on select Magnificent 7 and SpaceX earnings days, live PRO+ trading closes early at 4:01 PM ET and resumes at 6:00 PM ET, while PRO and Test accounts keep the usual 4:55 PM ET cutoff.

    The firm announced this by email on 2026-10-19 for Oct 20, 21, 28 and 29, Nov 2 and Nov 17, and says the dates and companies may change; it is not in the help centre yet.

  • !
    Consistency is not pass/fail: break the 50% best-day rule and your profit goal automatically rises to more than twice your best day's net P/L — you keep trading the same account
  • !
    PRO+ is an invitation, not a graduation: the firm reviews consistency, risk management, execution and discipline holistically, says there is no single threshold, and reserves the decision "solely at the discretion of Take Profit Trader"
  • !
    Taking the PRO+ upgrade costs you the PRO account: the PRO account goes on hold, $5,000 of its profit is FROZEN while PRO+ is active, the PRO+ account starts at a $0 balance with an EOD drawdown equal to the original PRO drawdown, and all future trading and withdrawals must happen on PRO+ only
  • !
    If the PRO+ account ends negative, the shortfall is deducted from that frozen $5,000 of PRO profit; the remainder is withdrawable under the normal PRO split
  • !
    During the final PRO+ setup step your market data is upgraded to professional access, which can take up to 12 hours - your PRO and Test accounts are unavailable to trade for that window
  • !
    Trade copiers are allowed but only from an approved list (Tradesyncer, TradeCopia, Affordable Indicators, Replikanto Flowbot Compliance Edition only, platform-native); unapproved or modified copiers are an enforcement matter
  • !
    Max 5 active funded accounts per person (PRO and PRO+ share the cap; moving to PRO+ carries the full five-account allowance with it); unlimited Test accounts
  • !
    Counter positions (opposite directions in the same or closely related products) banned across Test, PRO and PRO+ — CME requirement
  • !
    Both PRO and PRO+ must trade at least one round-trip per calendar week (Sun-Fri) or the account goes inactive; support can grant exceptions
  • !
    Profits sitting INSIDE the buffer zone can only be withdrawn after the PRO account is closed, and only at 50%. The firm removed the 80% tier for accounts traded more than 60 trading days on 2026-10-09.
  • !
    Breaking a rule does NOT cancel your Test subscription: you must cancel it manually or keep getting billed
  • !
    Test accounts bought with credits are not eligible for any promotion
  • !
    FED speakers and FOMC meeting minutes are explicitly ALLOWED — only the FOMC statement itself is blacked out
  • !
    Sustainable Trading Policy: patterns such as max position size on most trades, repeatedly blowing through loss limits, relying on simulation-specific fill inefficiencies or account churning draw closer review, and where trading "deliberately exploits the simulated environment" the firm "may part ways as funding partners without prior notice"
  • !
    A material gap between your PRO (sim) and PRO+ (live) results is explicitly named as the clearest signal of unsustainable trading and triggers review before more capital is extended
  • !
    PRO+ Development: traders showing aggressive sizing or rapid drawdowns are moved to a restricted live tier with 1/2/3/4/5 mini contracts (10/20/30/40/50 micros), a SOFT daily loss limit of $500/$1,000/$1,250/$1,500/$2,000 that pauses you, and a smaller EOD drawdown of $750/$1,250/$1,500/$1,750/$2,250 - so 'no daily loss limit' stops being true there
  • !
    Exiting PRO+ Development takes roughly 60 days of disciplined risk management (no profit number is required); placement can be appealed by emailing development@takeprofittrader.com
  • !
    PRO+ Development has a 30-day live-capital cooldown: if your net loss of TPT's own capital across your PRO+ Development accounts reaches $10,000 in any rolling 30 days, new purchases are paused for 30 days (accounts you already hold keep trading and the wallet stays withdrawable).

    Only losses below an account's starting balance count, TPT's 10% share of your payouts credits back against the total, and buying again after the 30 days requires a review by the risk team

    a SINGLE instance of trading or even viewing market data from one - including via VPN, remote desktop or a shared network - blocks the account "without exception"

  • !
    Registration itself is auto-denied from VPN or proxy connections, and the firm notes that public Wi-Fi, privacy tools or some ISP setups can trip the same check
  • !
    Wallet withdrawals of $250 or less carry a $50 fee; above $250 all fees are waived (PayPal may add its own)
  • !
    Payouts run on Plaid for US banks (real-time or ACH), and on Routable, PayPal or Wise internationally; LLC payouts must use Wise or a business PayPal, and the payee name must match the registered TPT user or the payout is delayed or denied
  • !
    Since the July 2026 speed update the account-to-wallet step is automated (5-10 seconds) for Tradovate PRO accounts and dashboard balances land 8-9 PM ET, but you must be flat with no working orders at the exact moment you submit; Rithmic PRO, PRO+ and archived Tradovate accounts are still manual, and the separate wallet-to-bank payout is compliance-reviewed for up to 12 business hours
  • !
    You may activate at most 10 passed tests in any 30 calendar days, on top of the 5 active PRO/PRO+ cap - and that cap is per person
  • !
    Break a rule during the Test and the subscription keeps billing until you cancel it by hand; if a renewal payment finally fails the account expires and the firm cannot reactivate it, and passing while the balance is overdue will not move you to PRO
  • !
    Holiday and early-close schedules are the trader's responsibility: if your product's market closes before 5 PM ET and you cannot exit in time, the account is liquidated

How to play Take Profit Trader

Model-specific observations about their rules and mechanics. Educational only — not trading or investment advice.

The evaluation now takes only 3 trading days (cut from 5 on 2026-08-17), so a $50K Test at the $170 list price can convert into a funded PRO account inside a single billing month - and the $130 PRO activation is one-time, never recurring.

Read moreShow less

Open the homepage banner before you buy: TPT has run a lifetime-discount promo without a gap since July, each one 40-50% off the monthly Test subscription for the life of that account plus the $130 activation waived for life.

The codes REPLACE each other rather than stack, and they also revert: NOFEE40 gave way to NOFEE50, then to the 50AND3 flash sale, and once that ended on 2026-08-25 the banner rolled back to NOFEE40, which held until 2 November 2026, when the Early Black Friday sale brought back NOFEE50 (50% off for life plus the activation waived, until Monday 9 November).

A retired code simply stops working, so read the banner rather than an aggregator.

Plan on staying in PRO: the 90% split and EOD drawdown of PRO+ only arrive by invitation, at the firm's sole discretion, and the upgrade freezes $5,000 of your PRO profit and restarts you at a $0 balance.

Recommended pick
$50K Test: $170/mo list, $85/mo with NOFEE50 until 9 Nov (rotating homepage promo has been running 40-50% off for life)
