Rules at a Glance
Lux Trading Firm rules in full
Max DD Type
Static 6% of the starting balance on every current account (for example a fixed floor of $94,000 on $100K, $376,000 on $400K and $940,000 on $1M); the floor does not rise with profit. The limit scales with the account at each funded stage. Accounts activated before 22 September 2025 stay on the older rules, which used a 6% relative drawdown from the highest balance.
Daily DD Type
None. The current rules set no daily loss limit.
Consistency Rule
Risk consistency: a fixed percentage of remaining risk capital (current balance minus the drawdown floor) must be risked on every trade throughout a stage, up to a maximum of 5%. Single trade profit limit: a position, counted together with same direction or correlated positions, may realise no more than 5% of the stage profit target ($500 on the $100K evaluation). A stop loss must be set before every entry.
Minimum Trading Days
None.
Time Limit
None.
Leverage
Not stated in the current rules. The July 2026 symbol list shows a 1% margin requirement on forex, indices, commodities and metals, 10% on stocks and 20% on crypto.
News Trading
Not prohibited, but news bracketing (pending buy and sell orders placed around high impact releases) is banned, and stop losses cannot be adjusted from 30 seconds before to 30 seconds after a news event.
Holding Restrictions
Not addressed in the current rules. The rules for accounts activated before 22 September 2025 allowed weekend holding.
EAs/Copy
Copy trading and trade mirroring tools are allowed within the risk rules, including copying trades into the Match Trader account from another broker or prop firm; up to 5 evaluation accounts may copy trade between themselves. Up to 5 Insta accounts, which cannot hold similar or correlated trades at the same time or copy each other. High frequency trading (more than 2,500 server messages in 24 hours) and fully automated systems that create excessive trades are prohibited, as are arbitrage and news bracketing.
Commissions

Lux Trading Firm review
Lux Trading Firm is a prop firm run by Lux Trading Firm Ltd, a UK company based in London, with a management office in Dubai and a trading desk office in Saint Lucia. Its forex and CFD accounts trade on Match Trader, and traders can copy trades into that account from another broker or platform. Every current evaluation is a single stage on a demo account. The $100,000 account costs £199 and needs a 10% profit target, the $400,000 account costs £449 and needs 12%, and the $1,000,000 account costs £999 and needs 15%. All accounts use a 6% static maximum loss set from the starting balance, and the current rules set no daily loss limit, no minimum trading days and no time limit. The fee is refunded in full once the risk desk approves a pass. Funded traders keep 80% of profits, can withdraw at any time while the account is in profit, and move up a stage each time they make 10%, up to a $10,000,000 account. Insta accounts at $100,000 and $400,000 pay a one time 80% share of a 12% target and do not scale. Every trade needs a stop loss placed before entry, risk per trade must stay consistent, and no single trade may earn more than 5% of the profit target. The firm prices its accounts in pounds sterling and also sells prediction market challenges.
Suits
Methodical forex and CFD traders who size every trade by a fixed risk percentage and want a single stage evaluation with a refundable fee and a long scaling path.
Less suited to
Avoid Lux Trading Firm if you rely on a few large winning trades, change your risk from one trade to the next, or open positions without a stop loss.
Pros
- The evaluation fee is refunded in full once the risk desk approves a pass.
- The one step evaluation has a static 6% maximum loss, no daily loss limit, no minimum trading days and no time limit.
- Funded traders can withdraw at any time while the account is in profit, and withdrawn profit still counts towards scaling.
- Each 10% gain on a funded account moves it up a stage, with a path to a $10,000,000 account.
- Trades can be copied into the Match Trader account from another broker or platform within the risk rules.
Cons
- No single trade, or group of correlated trades, may realise more than 5% of the stage profit target.
- Risk per trade must stay the same share of remaining risk capital throughout a stage, capped at 5%.
- Profit targets rise with account size, reaching 15% on the $1,000,000 evaluation.
- Insta accounts pay a single 80% share of the target, do not scale and carry no fee refund.
- Accounts are priced in pounds sterling, and leverage and payout methods are not published in the current rules.
Verdict
The main appeal of Lux Trading Firm is the size of its accounts relative to the fee, together with a scaling path that runs to $10,000,000. The one step structure is simple on paper: one demo stage, a static 6% floor, no daily loss limit and no deadline, with the fee refunded after a pass. Withdrawals are available at any time once a funded account is in profit, and withdrawn profit still counts towards the next scaling step. The trade off is a demanding set of risk rules that shapes how a trader must work. A stop loss has to be in place before every entry, the risk on each trade must be the same fixed share of remaining risk capital throughout a stage, capped at 5%, and no single position or group of correlated positions may realise more than 5% of the stage target. On the $100,000 evaluation that means no trade can bank more than $500 towards a $10,000 target, so passing takes many trades of similar size. Targets also rise with account size, reaching 15% on the $1,000,000 account. Funded traders are assigned a risk manager whose guidance must be followed, and serious negligence can lead to the account being closed. Insta accounts work differently: they pay a single 80% share of the 12% target and then end, with no scaling and no refund. Prices are set in pounds, leverage and payout methods are not stated in the current rules, and Trustpilot shows a rating of 3.9 from 635 reviews. The firm suits methodical traders who already size every position by a fixed risk percentage and are comfortable building profit through many small, similar trades.
Payouts
Profit Split
80% on funded accounts. Insta accounts pay a one time 80% of the 12% profit target ($9,600 on $100K, $38,400 on $400K).
Frequency
On demand: a withdrawal can be requested at any time while the funded account balance is in profit, with all positions closed. Withdrawn profit still counts towards the 10% scaling target.
First Payout
After passing the one step evaluation, the fee is refunded once the risk desk approves the pass, and profit on the funded account can be withdrawn whenever the balance is in profit.

Questions about Lux Trading Firm
Is Lux Trading Firm legit?
Lux Trading Firm Ltd is a UK company, number 13160991, with an address on City Road in London, and a related company operates from Dubai. The website states that neither company carries out regulated activities and that the firm is not a broker. Trustpilot shows a rating of 3.9 from 635 reviews. The current trading rules apply to accounts bought and activated from 22 September 2025.
How much does a Lux Trading Firm evaluation cost?
Lux prices its accounts in pounds sterling. The one step evaluation costs £199 for $100,000, £449 for $400,000 and £999 for $1,000,000, and the full fee is refunded after an approved pass. Insta accounts cost £299 for $100,000 and £699 for $400,000, with no refund. Resets after a breach cost £139, £299 and £699 on the evaluations and £209 and £549 on the Insta accounts.
Does Lux Trading Firm have a daily loss limit?
The current rules set no daily loss limit. Each account has a single 6% maximum loss fixed from the starting balance, so a $100,000 account is breached if it falls to $94,000, and that floor does not rise as the account grows. Accounts activated before 22 September 2025 remain under the older rules, which used a 6% relative drawdown that followed the highest balance.
What is the Lux Trading Firm single trade profit limit?
Each position may realise no more than 5% of the stage profit target. Positions in the same symbol and direction, or in closely correlated instruments, are counted together as one trade. On the $100,000 evaluation the target is $10,000, so the combined cap is $500. It rises to $2,400 on the $400,000 evaluation and $7,500 on the $1,000,000 evaluation.
How do Lux Trading Firm payouts work?
Funded traders keep 80% of profits and can request a withdrawal at any time once the account balance is in profit, provided all positions are closed. There are no fixed payout cycles, and withdrawn profit still counts towards the 10% needed to scale. Insta account holders receive a single payment of 80% of the 12% target after the risk desk reviews the account.
How does the Lux Trading Firm scaling plan work?
Each time a funded account earns 10%, it moves to the next stage and the 6% maximum loss grows with it. A $100,000 account steps through $200,000, $400,000, $1,000,000 and $2,500,000 before the $10,000,000 Fund Manager stage. The $400,000 and $1,000,000 evaluations reach the top stage in fewer steps. Insta accounts do not scale.
