Lucid Trading vs YLOS Trading

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.

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.

Evaluation (Standard, No Activation Fee, Freedom): end of day, but the account is blocked immediately if the balance falls below the limit intraday. Funded: real time (tick by tick) trailing until profit equals the drawdown plus $100, then static. Freedom 2.0 funded: end of day, never becomes static. Static Prime: static $1,500 drawdown. EOD Drawdown add on available.

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.

Standard and No Activation Fee evaluation: minimum 1 day. Freedom 2.0 evaluation: at least 5 days with $50 profit a day. Funded payouts: 10 trading days with 7 winning days of $50 or more (Standard, No Activation Fee); 5 days with $200 net profit a day (Instant Funding).

None; one time fee with no renewals. Accounts must record activity at least once every 7 days (a closed result of at least $100 positive or negative).

Allowed in the evaluation. Funded accounts must not be positioned at the time of news releases (may trade immediately after). Freedom 2.0 funded and the Freedom Rules add on remove this restriction. Bracketing news with pending orders on both sides is prohibited.

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.

Intraday only. All positions must be closed at least 30 minutes before the close (3:30 pm Chicago time on normal days); holding past the close blocks the account and zeroes the balance. No overnight or swing trading.

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.

No automation of any kind except the official Ylos Order Replicator. Copying external signals, copiers between different accounts, third party EAs, martingale, grid, hedging and microscalping (trades of 30 seconds or less in most trades) are prohibited.

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.

Funded Standard and No Activation Fee: no day above 40% of net profit in the period (resets after each withdrawal), plus a median rule (largest loss no more than 5 times the median winning trade) and contract size consistency. Instant Funding: 30%. Freedom 2.0: evaluation requires no single day to reach 40% of the target; no funded consistency, median or contract consistency rules.

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.

Balance must exceed a buffer of the drawdown plus $100 (e.g. $52,600 on 50K). Compliance review within 1 business day, funds released to the wallet within 24 to 48 business hours. Initial withdrawals are capped by account size: $1,500 (25K), $2,000 (50K), $2,500 (100K), $2,750 (150K) and $3,500 (300K) per withdrawal. Freedom 2.0 caps: $1,000 (25K) and $1,500 (50K) per withdrawal.

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.

Standard and No Activation Fee: every 10 trading days. Instant Funding: every 5 trading days. Freedom 2.0: one withdrawal per day. Requests accepted from 5 am Monday to 12 pm Friday Chicago time.

Not applicable; contract limits of 4 minis (25K), 10 (50K), 14 (100K), 17 (150K) and 35 (300K) on Standard, No Activation Fee and Instant Funding; Freedom 2.0 2 minis (25K) and 5 minis (50K) per pricing page.

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).
