Lucid Trading vs Bulenox

Soft breach (trading restricted until next session). LucidPro: optional DLL chosen at checkout; when on, fixed DLL $1,200 (50K), $1,800 (100K), $2,700 (150K), none on 25K per help centre; on funded accounts it becomes 60% of highest end of day profit once above the initial trail. LucidFlex and LucidDaily: optional DLL chosen at checkout ($600 to $2,700 when on). LucidDirect: none on 25K, $1,200 to $3,000 below the trail, then 60% of peak end of day profit.

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 LucidPro, LucidFlex and LucidDirect (evaluation and funded). The limit follows the highest closing balance and locks at starting balance plus $100 once the balance exceeds the initial trail level (e.g. $52,100 on 50K). LucidDaily: evaluation drawdown chosen at checkout (end of day or intraday); funded accounts always intraday, with the same lock levels.

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.

LucidPro can be passed in one day; LucidFlex in as few as three days with the standard 40% consistency rule, and LucidFlex and LucidDaily in as few as two days with the 50% consistency add-on. LucidFlex payouts need 5 days with minimum profit of $100 (25K), $150 (50K), $200 (100K) or $250 (150K). LucidDirect lists a minimum of 5 days to payout.

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.

All positions must be closed by 4:45 pm ET Monday to Friday and are closed automatically at that time (not a breach). No swing trading on live accounts.

Automated trading systems and trade copiers permitted, subject to firm rules. Prohibited: high frequency trading, hedging, and microscalping (flagged when over 50% of profit comes from trades held 5 seconds or less). Scaling in and DCA allowed; martingale discouraged.

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.

LucidFlex and LucidDaily: 40% in the evaluation, or 50% with the consistency add-on chosen at checkout; none funded. LucidPro: 40% per funded payout cycle (35% for accounts bought before 28 November 2025). LucidDirect: 20% per payout cycle. None on live accounts.

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.

LucidPro: minimum profit goal $250 to $1,000, 40% consistency, balance above buffer (drawdown plus $100); first payout capped at $1,000 to $3,000, later payouts $1,500 to $3,500. LucidFlex: 50% of profit up to $1,000 to $3,000, no buffer. LucidDirect: profit goal $1,500 to $9,000 for the first payout; caps $1,000 to $3,000 for payouts 1 to 3. LucidDaily: any amount above the buffer; hitting the maximum daily profit ($6,000 to $12,000) moves the account live. Funds sent within 2 business days of approval.

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.

No fixed payout window on any plan; request any day once criteria are met. LucidDaily: any day with positive net profit since the last payout and balance above the buffer. LucidFlex: up to 5 payouts per account, then the trader is moved to live review.

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.

LucidFlex funded accounts use a scaling plan that sets contract limits by simulated profit, updated at the end of each session (e.g. 50K starts at 2 minis and reaches the 4 mini maximum at $2,000 profit). Traders enter live review after the fifth payout, large lifetime payouts or exceptional performance; LucidLive accounts start at a $0 balance with end of day drawdown, no daily loss limit and daily payouts. LucidMaxx is an invitation only eval to live plan priced by tier ($110 to $680).

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.
