Not verified yet
We could not confirm these on the firm's own pages, so they are not shown as facts:
- Fast Track activation fee — plan card says '$87.00 monthly', help articles say first month free then $87/month: conflict.
- Fast Track account limit — help article '1 active account per trader' vs plan card 'Limited to 5 active account(s) per user': conflict.
- Lifetime sim payout cap — /ai/faq.json says '$150,000 lifetime', plan articles say '$25,000 & Live': conflict.
- Max withdrawal per payout on plan cards equals the cycle-4 maximum; cycle 1 maxima are lower (cycle 1 values shown).
- Consistency in the 1 Step, Static and Diamond Hands evaluations — not shown on the plan cards (no explicit statement).
- 1 Step 250K, EOD 150K and DTF 25K — described in help articles but not sold in the live plan picker; not listed.
- Payout frequency — rewards processed twice weekly, but how often a trader can request depends on active trade days.
