Everything you need to know.

A prop trading evaluation is a simulated trading challenge where you demonstrate your trading skills. Pass by hitting your profit target ($1,375 for $25K, $2,750 for $50K, $5,500 for $100K, or $8,250 for $150K) while staying above your trailing drawdown (size fixed at $1,000 / $2,000 / $3,500 / $5,000; the floor ratchets up and never resets — on DeepCharts it follows your highest closed balance, on WealthCharts your live account equity including open positions). No gambling or hedging allowed.

Reach your profit target while staying above the trailing drawdown at all times. No daily loss limit — only the trailing drawdown applies. No overnight or weekend holds — all positions must be flat by the daily session close. No minimum trading days to pass. No gambling, no hedging between accounts, no reckless trading.

Yes — evaluation accounts have a 25-day lifespan. An evaluation deactivates 25 days after purchase if it has not been passed. Pass your evaluation and get funded within those 25 days and the clock stops — funded accounts have no time limit. Instant Funded accounts skip the evaluation and are not time-limited.

No — all positions must be flat by the daily futures session close. Holding a position overnight, or over the weekend, is a rule violation and the payout for that cycle will be denied. The trailing / end-of-day drawdown also applies the entire time a position is open.

No. There is no daily loss limit on any account size or account type. The only loss-limit rule on your account is the trailing drawdown ($1,000 for 25K, $2,000 for 50K, $3,500 for 100K, or $5,000 for 150K).

Same risk rules as evaluation: trailing drawdown is the only loss-limit rule (no daily loss limit), no overnight or weekend holds (flat by session close). For payouts you need 8 trading days with 6 profitable days of $130+ each. Profit split: 90% you, 10% us. The per-cycle payout cap scales with account size: $1,000 (25K), $1,500 (50K), $2,000 (100K), or $2,500 (150K) gross, and you can request up to 50% of your accumulated profit per cycle. Legacy accounts (evaluation purchased before June 7, 2026 at 6:00 PM Pacific) use the same per-size caps at an 80/20 split ($800-$2,000 net) and may request up to 100% of accumulated profit.

After meeting the requirements (8 trading days with 6 profitable days of $130+), request a payout each cycle up to a cap that scales with account size: $1,000 (25K), $1,500 (50K), $2,000 (100K), or $2,500 (150K) gross. Payouts are typically fast and process in up to 14 business days after approval, via ACH (US), domestic wire (US), or Wise (international). You can trade for any number of days — just need those minimums met. 90% of the requested amount goes to you; Redline retains 10% per the trader agreement. You can request up to 50% of your accumulated profit per cycle. Legacy accounts (evaluation purchased before June 7, 2026 at 6:00 PM Pacific) use the same per-size caps at an 80/20 split ($800-$2,000 net) and may request up to 100% of accumulated profit. A payment dispute or chargeback opened while a payout is processing will deny that payout.

Once approved, payouts are processed in up to 14 business days. That window is a maximum, not a guarantee of a specific pay date, and it runs from approval, after your identity verification (KYC), AML screening, and rule-compliance checks are complete. Most approved payouts are processed sooner.

Yes. International payouts go out via Wise, which converts to your local currency and deposits to your bank. You provide your Wise login email; funds settle in 1-3 business days. Same per-cycle cap by account size ($1,000 / $1,500 / $2,000 / $2,500 gross for 25K / 50K / 100K / 150K) and 90/10 split as US payouts (legacy accounts, evaluation purchased before June 7, 2026 at 6:00 PM Pacific: same per-size caps, 80/20).

You can trade on DeepCharts (included free, in your browser) or WealthCharts (optional pro charting and execution) - pick your platform at checkout. Note: on WealthCharts your drawdown follows live account equity including open positions. For Level 2 / Depth-of-Market, the L2 data upgrade is $50/mo from your dashboard.

No — that "API: 500" message is NOT an error and you can ignore it. Look to the LEFT side of your screen: DeepCharts Web has already loaded and is ready to trade. The 500 banner is a harmless quirk of the post-signature redirect, not a real failure. Click into DeepCharts on the left panel and start trading as normal.

Pick NON-PROFESSIONAL unless you genuinely qualify as a professional under CME’s definition. Having taken a few prop-firm payouts does NOT make you a professional trader. CME considers you Professional only if you are: (1) registered with the SEC, CFTC, or a comparable foreign regulator, (2) employed by a bank, broker-dealer, hedge fund, or financial firm in a trading capacity, or (3) trading on behalf of a corporate entity. If none of that applies, you are Non-Professional — period. Picking Professional by mistake triggers much higher CME market-data fees on your account and the change is a slow, manual reversal. When in doubt: Non-Professional.

You can copy trades between your own Redline accounts using Volumetrica’s built-in copy trading or third-party tools like TradeSyncer. However, following or copying another person’s trades — via signal services, trade rooms, or copy trading software connected to external sources — is strictly prohibited and will result in payout denial.

A maximum of 5 active funded accounts per trader at any one time. Evaluation accounts in progress are not counted toward this cap — only funded accounts. All accounts must be under the same verified identity. No hedging between your own accounts.

You must place at least one trade every 14 consecutive days to keep your account active. Activity means a placed trade; simply logging in or loading a chart does not count. This applies to both evaluation and funded accounts: an account with no trade placed for 14 consecutive days is subject to forfeiture (closed and access removed) at Redline's discretion. Place a trade within any 14-day window to keep the account in good standing.

Optional paid add-ons for your account. Each one adjusts a specific rule to fit how you actually trade — activated per account, anytime. They are never required.

Active evaluation and funded accounts. Instant-funded accounts are not eligible for Powerups.

It stands down one specific payout-conduct rule on your next payout, so that payout is not flagged for that behavior. Conduct waivers are single-use: once your next payout is evaluated the waiver is spent — whether or not that rule came up — and you buy it again to cover another payout. It does not waive your drawdown, profit target, or trading-day requirements, it only ever covers the one rule you bought, and it never excuses fraud or market manipulation.

One. A conduct waiver covers a single payout. After that payout is evaluated the waiver is spent and the slot frees up, so you can buy the same waiver again to cover your next payout. (Balance Boost and Profit Bonus are different — Balance Boost is repeatable while in drawdown, and Profit Bonus stays active on the account.)

Per purchase, per account, ranging from $300 to $1,000 depending on the waiver. Each conduct-waiver purchase covers one payout. Balance Boost is priced per $100 added; Profit Bonus pricing is announced at launch.
