GOAT Funded Futures vs Bulenox

Soft breach (positions closed, trading paused until next day). EOD: none in evaluation, 2.5% funded. 1 Day Pass: 2.4% on 25K, 2% on 50K and 100K, both phases. Flex: none. Daily Payouts: 2% or 1.5%, and a third hit within 30 days closes the account. Instant Classic: 3%. Instant Lite: none on 25K, 2% on 50K and 100K, third hit closes the account.

Option 2 only. Soft breach: trading is disabled for the rest of the session and resumes next session (realised and unrealised P&L plus commissions, 5:00 pm to 4:00 pm CT). Qualification and Master: $500, $1,100, $2,200, $3,300, removed on a Master Account once the drawdown locks. Fast Track: none on 25K, then $1,200, $2,500, $3,300, never lifted. Momentum: $600, $1,200, $2,500, $3,300. Option 1 accounts have no daily loss limit.

End of day trailing on EOD, 1 Day Pass Plan, Flex and Instant Lite, and in the Daily Payouts evaluation; locks at the starting balance (EOD, 1 Day Pass, Flex) or starting balance plus $100 (Daily Payouts, Instant Lite). Intraday trailing on Instant Classic (locks at starting balance) and on Daily Payouts funded accounts (locks at starting balance plus $100).

Chosen at purchase and locked for the life of the account, on every plan. Option 1: trailing drawdown calculated in real time on the highest account value, including open profit and commissions (intraday trailing), with no daily loss limit and full contract size. Option 2: end of day drawdown that moves only when the account closes at a new high, paired with a daily loss limit. On Master and Fast Track accounts the threshold stops permanently at starting balance plus $100 (for example $50,100 on 50K, reached at $52,600 on a Qualification Master). Live Funded Accounts start with their own end of day drawdown of $1,500, $2,000, $3,000 or $4,500 by Master size.

None to pass Qualification or Momentum. Master Account: 10 trading days per payout. Momentum Master: 5 qualifying profitable days per cycle ($100, $150, $200 or $250 net by size). Fast Track: none.

Qualification and Momentum access is valid for 30 days (a reset does not extend it); one time fee with no renewal. No time limit stated for Master, Momentum Master or Fast Track accounts.

No restriction in the EOD, Flex and 1 Day Pass evaluations. A 2 minute buffer around high impact news applies on all funded accounts and in both phases of Daily Payouts; positions opened before the window may be held. Gap trading around earnings is prohibited.

No overnight or weekend holding on any account type; open positions are flattened automatically at 15:55 CT. Holding time rules: profit from trades closed within 2 minutes is removed on EOD, 1 Day Pass and Instant Classic; Flex requires 50% of trades and profit from trades held over 1 minute; Daily Payouts requires 50% of profit from trades held over 60 seconds.

Own automated strategies and EAs allowed on EOD, 1 Day Pass, Flex and Instant Classic; not allowed on Daily Payouts or Instant Lite (manual only; grid and martingale banned). Copying your own trades across your own accounts is allowed (Daily Payouts only between Daily Payouts accounts). Copying signals or other traders is prohibited.

Bots, algorithms and trade copiers permitted if user built for the account owner's personal use only; commercial, shared, rented or publicly distributed automation is not allowed. Connecting to Rithmic through a third party API or Trader Composite Software costs $100 a month. One Bulenox profile and one Rithmic User ID per trader.

EOD: 50% evaluation, 30% funded. 1 Day Pass: none evaluation, 35% funded. Flex: 50% evaluation, none funded. Daily Payouts: 40% evaluation, none funded. Instant Classic: 20%. Instant Lite: 15% first payout, 20% second, 25% thereafter.

None in the Qualification or Momentum evaluation. Master Account (Qualification path): best day no more than 40% of total P&L, measured for each payout period and reset after every approved payout (the Safety Threshold Reserve counts in the first calculation). Momentum Master: 35% per payout cycle. Fast Track: 20% for the first payout, 25% for the second and 30% from the third. Missing the ratio is not a breach; the trader keeps trading until it is met.

80/20 default on EOD, 1 Day Pass and Flex (90/10 add on for 20% of the challenge price); 90/10 on Daily Payouts and Instant Lite; Instant Classic 100% of the first $10,000 in payouts, then 90%

EOD, 1 Day Pass and Flex: 50% of profit per request, capped by size and payout number (e.g. EOD 50K first payout $1,500; 1 Day Pass 50K $1,500; Flex 50K $2,000). Daily Payouts: after 24 hours of funded trading, above a buffer (e.g. $52,100 on 50K), capped at $650 to $2,500 per request, 3% processing fee deducted. Instant Classic: after 7% account growth. Instant Lite: after 6% to 6.5% growth. GFF processes requests within two business days (48 hours on Daily Payouts).

Master Account: 10 trading days, 40% consistency, and a balance covering the Safety Threshold Reserve ($1,600, $2,600, $3,100, $4,600) plus the request; the first three payouts are capped at $1,000, $1,500, $1,750 and $2,000; from the fourth payout each request must be less than 50% of the account’s total profit. Fast Track: first payout goal $1,500, $3,000, $6,000, $9,000, then $1,000, $2,000, $3,000, $4,500 of new profit per cycle; caps $1,000, $2,000, $2,500, $3,000 for payouts 1 to 3 and $1,250, $2,500, $3,000, $3,500 after. Momentum Master: minimum balance $26,500, $53,000, $104,500, $156,500; first payout caps $1,000, $1,500, $2,000, $2,500, rising to $1,000, $3,000, $4,000, $5,000 from the fourth. A withdrawal form, ID and a hand signed IRS Form W9 (US persons) or W8BEN (others) are required. Bulenox charges no transfer fee.

EOD: every 7 winning days. 1 Day Pass and Flex: every 5 winning days. Requests only between the 5th and 8th or the 20th and 23rd of each month. Daily Payouts: once every 24 hours with no windows or winning day requirement.

Master Account: every 10 trading days, processed weekly on Wednesdays (requests by 11:59 pm CT Friday). Fast Track and Momentum Master: request once cycle criteria are met; processed the same day (Fast Track states requests before 12:01 pm CT Monday to Friday are ordinarily processed the same day).

Not applicable; contract limits of 3, 7, 12 and 15 minis on Qualification, Master and all Option 1 accounts (Option 2 Qualification scales up to these), and 2, 4, 8 and 12 minis on Option 2 Fast Track and Momentum accounts. 1 mini equals 10 micros.

Option 2 Qualification and Master accounts use a dynamic scaling plan based on cash on hand (for example 50K: 2 minis up to $1,500 profit, 4 minis to $4,000, 7 minis above). Fast Track and Momentum Option 2 accounts have fixed, lower limits with no scaling. Up to five Master level accounts (Master, Fast Track, Momentum Master) can be held at once; Qualification accounts are unlimited. After three successful payouts a Master level account may be considered for a live Funded Account at Bulenox's discretion, and other active Master level accounts with at least one payout may move with it, each to its own Funded Account. Profits do not transfer; each Funded Account starts with an initial end of day drawdown of $1,500, $2,000, $3,000 or $4,500.
