Can I Scale My Account?

Estimated reading: 2 minutes

Yes. All ThePropTrade Funded Accounts are eligible for scaling up to $2 Million. Provided you meet the scaling requirements and follow the funded account rules.

Scaling Requirements

To qualify for a balance increase on a funded account, you must:

  • Achieve 10% profit for four (4)consecutive months of trading. As a result, your funded account balance will be increased by 25%.
  • Trading goals remain unchanged.

Your trading objectives and rules remain the same after scaling.

Scaling Up Your Account – Key Points

  • Once your account is scaled, you are not required to reach another 10% to keep the increased balance.
  • You are free to withdraw profits at any time.
    • You do not need to leave profits in the account to qualify for scaling, meaning withdrawals do not reset or negatively impact your progress toward the next 10% profit milestone.
  • Drawdown limits scale proportionally with your new balance.
    • When your account size increases, both your Maximum Overall Drawdown and Max Daily Drawdown increase accordingly.

Example: How Scaling Affects Drawdown Levels

On a $100,000 funded account:

  • Maximum Overall Drawdown: $10,000
    • The account must stay above $90,000
  • Max Daily Drawdown: $5,000

Once the account is scaled to $150,000:

  • Maximum Overall Drawdown: $15,000
    • The account must stay above $135,000
  • Max Daily Drawdown: $7,500

This way, as your account grows, your risk limits expand proportionally while maintaining the same risk framework.
