Rules

One-step evaluation, no evaluation consistency or minimum days (Lucid: pass in one day). EOD trailing MLL locks at start + $100. Optional DLL chosen at checkout. DLL On: cheaper, soft breach (locked out until the next trading day) and On Demand intraday payouts (requests during the 6:00 PM-3:45 PM ET trading day, from that day's profit; trading pauses until the end of the day). DLL Off: no DLL, regular end-of-day payouts. Funded: 40% consistency per payout cycle (largest single-day profit divided by account profit, resets after each payout; must keep trading until under 40%, never fails the account; 35% for accounts bought or reset on or before 28 Nov 2025). Each cycle also needs the minimum profit goal ($250/$500/$750/$1,000) and balance above the buffer (MLL + $100); minimum request $500; max $1,000/$2,000/$2,500/$3,000 for payout 1 and $1,500/$2,500/$3,000/$3,500 from payout 2. Requests are final; funds leave the account within minutes of approval and are paid within 2 business days. No scaling plan. News trading allowed.

Watch out

Best day must fall under 40% of cycle profit before each payout (keep trading until it does). Soft daily loss limit with DLL On. Requests are final. News allowed; hedging, HFT and microscalping banned.

Optional DLL (soft breach); DLL On gives On Demand intraday payouts, DLL Off end-of-day payouts. Funded: no consistency, no buffer; each payout needs 5 days with at least $100/$150/$200/$250 profit and positive cycle net profit; request up to 50% of profit, capped at $1,000/$2,000/$2,500/$3,000 (caps do not grow); minimum $500.

Evaluation consistency conflict: LucidDaily Evaluation article (31 Jul 2026) lists 50% for all sizes; LucidDaily Customization lists 40% standard with a 50% add-on (https://support.lucidtrading.com/en/articles/15996664-luciddaily-evaluation vs https://support.lucidtrading.com/en/articles/16033858-luciddaily-customization). Both variants are given. Price third-party (ProptradingVibes, 16 Sep 2026): $156 with intraday evaluation drawdown, $185 with EOD evaluation drawdown; DLL/consistency configuration behind it not stated. Funded intraday MLL lock level not stated in the LucidDaily articles read. Payouts before live not stated beyond the max-daily-profit trigger ('LucidDaily Live' not read).

Rules

One-step evaluation; evaluation drawdown EOD or intraday (chosen at checkout, intraday cheaper); consistency 40% standard per the customization page (50% per the evaluation page; see the open points). Optional fixed DLL $600/$1,200/$1,800/$2,700 in both phases, soft breach. Funded: intraday drawdown always, no consistency, no minimum days; payouts daily from profit above the buffer (MLL + $100) with net profit above $0 since the last payout; minimum $500, no per-request cap. Max daily profit $6,000/$8,000/$10,000/$12,000: meeting it moves the account live. Trading USD high-impact red-folder news is a hard breach (flat from 1 min before to 1 min after). DLL On allows intraday on-demand requests (not after a hedging violation). 90/10.

Watch out

Trading USD high-impact news is a hard breach: be flat 1 minute before to 1 minute after. Reaching the daily profit maximum ($6,000-$12,000) moves the account live. Funded drawdown is intraday. Hedging banned.

Assumptions

Where a source leaves a rule open, the Finder takes the slower reading. Each program lists what it assumes for every size; a size lists only what it adds. Programs from the Finder's own reading of the firm's pages carry no assumption list; they show what their model rests on. Every payout is requested as early as the rules allow; the request that reaches the amount takes only what it still needs.

LucidDirect

The Finder's own reading; no assumption list. What the model rests on:

  • What sets the pace. 20% best-day rule: 5 days.
  • What stays. Floor locked at start + $100.
  • Number of payouts. 5, then a live review; counted here as the account ending.
  • 13-week model. Daily target per size: 25K $300; 50K $400; 100K $700; 150K $1,000. 90% and 85% of days winning; a breached account is replaced.

  • Trust note. Rule changes applied only to new purchases (LucidPro consistency from 35% to 40%, and the end of the 100%-of-first-$10k split, for accounts bought or reset after 28 Nov 2025): not retroactive.
  • Trust note. No payout-refusal pattern or regulator warning seen in the sources read (no separate regulator search run).
