Take Profit Trader Rules: Test, PRO Funded and Payout Rules

Last verified: November 1, 2026 — checked against Take Profit Trader’s official site and help center. Take Profit Trader (TPT) runs three stages: the Test (evaluation), the PRO account (funded, simulated, real payouts), and PRO+ (live money, invitation only). Five sizes: 25K, 50K, 75K, 100K and 150K.

Take Profit Trader Test (Evaluation) Rules

Account Profit target Max trailing drawdown Max contracts
25K $1,500 $1,500 3 (30 micros)
50K $3,000 $2,000 6 (60 micros)
75K $4,500 $2,500 9 (90 micros)
100K $6,000 $3,000 12 (120 micros)
150K $9,000 $4,500 15 (150 micros)
  • End-of-day trailing drawdown — with a catch. The floor only moves up at the daily close (trailing your highest end-of-day balance, locking at your starting balance), but it is enforced in real time including open profit. Touch the floor at any moment and the account is liquidated.
  • Consistency rule: your best day must stay under 50% of your total net profit. Go over and you do not fail — your profit target automatically rises to more than 2× your best day.
  • Minimum 3 trading days. No time limit. The Test is a monthly subscription — $150 (25K) · $170 (50K) · $245 (75K) · $330 (100K) · $360 (150K) per month until you pass; take as long as you need. Test resets cost $79–$199 by size.
  • No daily loss limit. No overnight positions (auto-closed 4:55 PM ET). No counter positions. Commissions are $4.50 round trip per mini, $1.50 per micro.
  • Passing costs a one-time $130 PRO activation fee. There is no monthly fee on the funded account.

Take Profit Trader Funded Rules (PRO Account)

This is where TPT surprises people: the drawdown changes style when you get funded.

  • Intraday trailing drawdown in PRO. The floor now trails your peak balance — including unrealized profit — in real time, for the same dollar amount as your Test. It locks once it reaches your starting balance.
  • The buffer: you can only withdraw profit above starting balance + drawdown (for example, $52,000 on a 50K). Profit inside the buffer is only paid if you close the account — and then at 50% of the buffer zone.
  • 80/20 profit split. PRO+ (live) pays 90/10.
  • No payout caps and no payout windows. Withdraw any day, from day one, as long as you are above the buffer and flat with no working orders.
  • Daily payouts to your wallet, then out via Plaid (US bank), PayPal or Wise — typically within one business day. Withdrawals over $250 are free; $250 or less carries a $50 fee, so small withdrawals are a bad deal.
  • No consistency rule in PRO and no scaling plan — full position size from day one.
  • Manual trading only (no bots). Trade at least one day per calendar week. Be flat around FOMC, Non-Farm Payrolls and CPI (±1 minute). Up to 5 funded accounts total. PRO resets (up to 3 per account) cost $449–$1,499 by size.

PRO+ (Live) and PRO+ Development Rules

PRO+ is TPT’s live-money tier: invitation only, at their discretion — there is no published profit threshold. It pays 90/10, uses an end-of-day drawdown, and has no buffer for withdrawals. On upgrade, $5,000 of your PRO profit is frozen as protection and the PRO+ account starts at $0 with your original drawdown amount. Traders whose risk TPT considers reckless can be placed in PRO+ Development instead — reduced size, a soft daily loss limit, and a smaller drawdown — until roughly 60 days of disciplined trading earns the standard tier back.

Take Profit Trader FAQ

What are the funded rules for Take Profit Trader?

Withdraw only profit above the buffer (start + drawdown), keep 80%, withdraw any day with no caps and no minimum days — but know the funded drawdown trails intraday, including open profit, which is stricter than the Test’s end-of-day floor.

What are the funded rules for the Take Profit Trader 150K account?

$4,500 intraday trailing drawdown, a $154,500 buffer balance, 80/20 split, daily uncapped payouts above the buffer, 15-contract limit, and PRO resets at $1,499.

Does Take Profit Trader have daily payouts?

Yes. PRO withdrawals can be made any day, from day one, provided the balance is above the buffer and you are flat. Payouts typically land within one business day.

Is there a consistency rule at Take Profit Trader?

In the Test only: your best day must stay under 50% of total profit, or your target rises to more than double your best day. The funded PRO account has no consistency rule.

How do I get to PRO+?

By invitation. TPT reviews consistency, risk management and execution over time and emails eligible traders. There is no fixed profit number that triggers it.
