Phase 1: Evaluation
- Profit target
15 %
Programme page example: 10K account → USD 1,500. Only valid net profit after simulated commissions counts (USD 0.005 per share, at least USD 0.75 per filled order). A position is valid only with at least 10 cents between average entry and exit price and at least 30 seconds between opening and closing; trades above 5% of the previous one-minute candle's volume may be invalidated. Opening or adding only once more than 200,000 shares have traded that day (pre/after-market 20,000); the worked example in the same Program Terms uses 400,000 / 40,000. Account size = buying power.
tradethepool.com- Daily loss
3 %
from start-of-day balance
only stops the trading day
«Daily Pause»: if equity (open positions included) falls more than the limit below the realised balance at the start of the day, all positions and orders are closed and no new trades are possible until the next trading day opens; the account stays active. The system may offer to reset the pause (price not stated), which allows another daily limit's worth of losses for the rest of the day. Per the FAQ the value is recalculated at the market open of the following trading day; TTP states no clock time. In the Pro account the Daily Pause rises by 10% with each scaling step.
tradethepool.com- Maximum loss
7 % · other calculation
See the firm's rule text.
Stops: Initially fixed at initial buying power minus the limit (measured on equity including open positions). The Program Terms («Payouts» section) and the FAQ («Evaluation & Funded» category) describe a one-time step of the floor to the initial balance once equity reaches the initial balance plus 3 × the daily limit (here +9%, i.e. before the 15% target). TTP does not say explicitly whether this already applies during the evaluation.
Reaching it ends the account. Programme page example: 10K account → max drawdown USD 700.
tradethepool.com- Minimum trading days
none
The Program Terms require the profit target, a minimum number of positions and consistency for the evaluation, but no minimum number of trading days; here at least 5 positions.
tradethepool.com- Time limit
100 days
Program Terms: 100 calendar days (the explainer on the programme page says «100 trading days»). Joining on a Friday/Saturday/Sunday adds 3/2/1 days. A renewal can be bought in the final 3 calendar days until 23:59 ET on the expiry day (price not stated).
tradethepool.com- Consistency rule
≤ 30 % · other formula
keep trading until met
The best single position (from opening until flat again) may be at most 30% of total valid profit, otherwise the target rises accordingly («adjusted profit target»). Example: target USD 1,500, best position USD 600 → USD 2,000 total profit needed. The programme page phrases it as a share of the profit target (target USD 1,500 → best position at most USD 450).

Simulated account with profit shareSIM
"Funded" means here what the firm itself states below.
- Account type
Simulated account
Per the Program Terms all activity (evaluation and Professional/Pro account) takes place exclusively in a simulated environment: the capital is fictitious and no order reaches an exchange; the reward is a share of the hypothetical net profit. Per the Terms, TTP decides at its discretion whether to execute suggested trades. The «Funded Phase» page, by contrast, speaks of a «live pool account» and «real funds».
tradethepool.com- Daily loss
3 %
from start-of-day balance
only stops the trading day
«Daily Pause»: if equity (open positions included) falls more than the limit below the realised balance at the start of the day, all positions and orders are closed and no new trades are possible until the next trading day opens; the account stays active. The system may offer to reset the pause (price not stated), which allows another daily limit's worth of losses for the rest of the day. Per the FAQ the value is recalculated at the market open of the following trading day; TTP states no clock time. In the Pro account the Daily Pause rises by 10% with each scaling step.
tradethepool.com- Maximum loss
7 % · other calculation
See the firm's rule text.
Stops: Size as on the price card (per the programme page the Pro account keeps the same trading conditions; per the Program Terms a scaled account again gets the account type's loss limit). Initially fixed at the starting balance minus the limit. Once equity (unrealised profit included, intraday) reaches the starting balance plus 3 × the daily limit, the floor moves at once to the starting balance (the tier balance in scaled accounts) and stays there. Program Terms example: start USD 100,000, daily limit USD 2,000, max drawdown USD 4,000 → minimum equity USD 96,000; from USD 106,000 equity it is USD 100,000. Withdrawing before that threshold avoids the step.
tradethepool.com- Consistency rule
≤ 70 % · other formula
payout waits until met
In the Pro account (MAX Swing) the best single position may be at most 70% of valid profit; a condition for payouts and scaling. Example: best position USD 700 → at least USD 1,000 valid profit.
tradethepool.com- Trading days per payout
none
No profitable-days requirement (FAQ: does not apply to MAX; the 20K price card shows «3» instead). At least 5 trades before a payout or scaling step.
tradethepool.com- Profit split
70 %
tradethepool.com- First payout
14 days
At the earliest 14 days after the Pro account starts (or after a scaled account is opened), with at least USD 300 profit (5K account: USD 150) after closing all positions; plus the minimum number of trades (FLEX Day 10, Swing 5), the consistency rule and, on FLEX, 3 days with ≥ 0.5% profit.
tradethepool.com- Payout rhythm
every 14 days
On request, at the earliest 14 days after the previous payout. After a scaling step the period restarts, also for carried-over profit; TTP therefore recommends withdrawing before reaching the scaling target.
tradethepool.com- Minimum payout
USD 300
USD 150 on the 5K account (FAQ).
tradethepool.com- Cap per payout
No fixed cap per programme stated. Per the Terms, TTP may set a maximum per transaction; above it, payouts are made in weekly instalments of USD 10,000. Per the Program Terms example, withdrawing all profit closes the account; after a partial payout a new account is opened.
tradethepool.com- Payout fees
Per the Program Terms, transactions and profit withdrawals may be subject to a processing fee; the amount is not stated. Payouts by wire transfer, crypto, Hub credits or credit card, usually within 3–5 business days.
tradethepool.com- Scaling
At each 10% of valid profit (relative to buying power) the account is closed and, after a risk review, reopened: buying power +5%, Daily Pause +10%. The profit is split 70/30 at that point; your share is carried into the new account as credits, which absorb losses below the starting balance first (used credits are not restored). Conditions: the consistency rule and the minimum number of trades.
tradethepool.com- Inactivity
MAX: 14-day inactivity timeout on the Pro account, not during the evaluation. Anyone who expects to be unable to trade for longer must tell support in advance.

Trading rules
- News trading
allowed
News trading is allowed per the FAQ. The Terms prohibit «bracketing» (pending orders on both sides just before high-impact news). Positions in stocks reporting earnings that night are liquidated at 15:50 ET (day and swing).
tradethepool.com- Holding overnight
allowed
Swing accounts: holding overnight with full buying power, also pre- and after-market. Exceptions: no overnight position over earnings (liquidated at 15:50 ET), close before stock splits and before the ex-dividend date; overnight positions only in stocks averaging at least 500,000 shares traded per day over the previous 14 calendar days.
tradethepool.com- Holding over the weekend
allowed
Positions may be held over the weekend in all swing sizes; there is no trading session at the weekend (Friday 20:00 ET to Monday 03:00 ET).
tradethepool.com- EAs / bots
restricted
Contradictory: the Terms prohibit custom, algorithmic or other automated trading software. The Program Terms describe automated trading via SignalStack as a beta that can be revoked at any time, targeting at most 2 requests per minute. Per TTP, the Terms prevail in case of conflict.
tradethepool.com- Copy trading
restricted
Only between your own accounts, at most 2 accounts; eligible sizes: day 5K, 25K, 50K (50K only with one 25K or 5K), swing 2K, 10K. Every trade must be executed by the trader; external copy tools are prohibited, the TraderEvolution copy feature is for evaluation accounts only (manual copying also on Pro accounts). Copying or coordinating with other traders is prohibited. The base buying power of all accounts combined should not exceed USD 450,000 (before scaling).
tradethepool.com- Hedging
restricted
Netting account: several positions in the same stock count as one trade and are added together. An opposing position in another account within 30 minutes counts as wash trading and is prohibited; «hedge arbitrage trading» is prohibited by the Terms.
