YLOS Trading vs Bulenox

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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).

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

A withdrawal form, ID and a hand signed IRS Form W9 (US persons) or W8BEN (others) are required. Bulenox charges no transfer fee.

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.

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 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.

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.
