💸 Payout Rules – Alpha Trader Futures (1-Step Program)
At Alpha Trader Futures, we keep payouts simple, structured, and trader-focused. Here’s how the payout system works once you’ve passed the 1-Step Futures Program and go live on a funded account.
✅ Eligibility for Payouts
To become eligible for your first payout:
You must complete a minimum of 5 trading days after funding.
A minimum trading day is defined as any day with at least 0.50% profit from the starting balance.
Once the 5 minimum trading days are completed, your payout cycle begins.
🔄 Payout Cycles
Minimum Trading Days: 5 per payout cycle
Cycles 1–5: Withdraw 2.5% of account size per cycle at a 100% profit split (the trader keeps it all)
Cycle 6: Eligible for a full account profit withdrawal at an 100% split
Frequency: Each cycle requires 5 additional minimum trading days
🛡️ Safety Net Rule
Alpha Trader Futures requires all funded accounts to maintain a 3% Safety Net of the original account balance at all times.
This Safety Net must remain in the account and cannot be withdrawn.
You are only eligible to withdraw profits made above the 3% Safety Net level.
If the account balance falls below the Safety Net threshold, the account will be closed.
Example – $100,000 Funded Account
Starting Balance: $100,000
Required Safety Net: $3,000 (3%)
Usable Trading Balance: $97,000
This ensures a protective equity buffer is always left in the account while still giving traders access to their earned rewards.
