LucidPro 25KOne-time fee $123 (site currently shows a stacked promo down to $70.60-$90.60 with coupon code VAULT); reset fee $90 (promo ~$70). No monthly/subscription cost on any Lucid plan.

Evaluation phase

Profit target
$1,250
Max drawdown
$1,000 Max Loss Limit (MLL)
Drawdown type
End-of-day (EOD) trailing MLL, trails up with closed-session P&L until it reaches the Initial Trail Balance ($26,100), then locks at initial balance + $100.
Daily loss limit
None. Official LucidPro Evaluation Account and LucidPro Daily Loss Limit knowledge-base articles both explicitly list the 25K DLL as 'None' (soft-breach DLL is not offered at this size). Note: the live marketing pricing page briefly rendered a '$600' DLL figure under the 25K PRO card during scraping, but this appears to be a carousel/tab render artifact (the same $600 figure is the LucidDaily 25K DLL) — the two dedicated KB articles are treated as authoritative here.
Consistency rule
None during evaluation (LucidPro is the only Lucid eval program with no consistency requirement).
Min trading days
None stated as an explicit rule. Marketing copy says you can 'pass in as little as one day.'
Max contracts
2 minis or 20 micros
Other rules
One-time fee, no rebilling; real-time dashboard; upgrade to funded within 5-30 minutes of hitting target; no activation fee.

Funded phase

Account kind
Sim-funded account first; discretionary promotion to LucidLive (real brokerage capital, $0 starting balance) after Payout 5, after paying out a significant lifetime amount, for exceptional performance, or if previously moved live.
Activation or monthly fee
FREE activation, no monthly/PA fee ever.
Drawdown
Same $1,000 MLL
Drawdown type
MLL locks permanently at starting balance plus $100 after its trail threshold is reached. LucidScale (60% of the highest EOD profit) affects the DAILY loss limit, not the locked account floor. Confirm the current floor and daily room on the firm dashboard.
Daily loss limit
None (per official docs, see eval note above).
Consistency rule
For payout eligibility only: largest single-day profit must be ≤40% of total profit in the payout cycle (resets each payout).
Payout schedule
No fixed payout window, request any day once eligible. Minimum payout $500. Payout 1 max $1,000 (min balance $27,100); Payouts 2+ max $1,500 (min balance $27,600). Buffer balance (can't be paid out) = Initial MLL + $100 = $26,100. Funds deducted within minutes of approval; disbursed within 2 business days via Plaid/WorkMarket(ADP)/crypto.
Profit split
90% trader / 10% Lucid. (Legacy-only: accounts purchased/reset before 11/28/2025 3:00 PM ET got 100% of first $10k — not available on new 2026 purchases.)
Scaling or contract limits
No scaling plan — full 2 mini/20 micro size available immediately upon funding.
Other rules
Minimum profit goal between payouts: $250. Household cap: 5 funded accounts total (all Lucid plans combined).

Drawdown
$2,000 MLL
Drawdown type
MLL locks permanently at starting balance plus $100 after its trail threshold is reached. LucidScale (60% of the highest EOD profit) affects the DAILY loss limit, not the locked account floor. Confirm the current floor and daily room on the firm dashboard.

LucidFlex 25KOne-time fee $89 (promo ~$65.30); reset fee $65.

Evaluation phase

Profit target
$1,250
Max drawdown
$1,000 MLL
Drawdown type
EOD trailing.
Daily loss limit
Optional at checkout; if enabled, fixed DLL = $600.
Consistency rule
50% (largest day / total profit), but with a built-in 'cushion' that in practice lets most traders pass on their 2nd trading day.
Min trading days
None stated as a hard rule; the 50% consistency cushion is the practical driver of the ~2-day pass.
Max contracts
2 minis or 20 micros
Other rules
One-time fee, real-time dashboard, funded activation in 5-30 minutes.

Funded phase

Account kind
Sim-funded; up to 5 payouts allowed, after which the trader is moved to LucidLive (real capital, $0 start) — the same discretionary/exceptional-performance criteria as other Lucid plans can also trigger an earlier move.
Activation or monthly fee
FREE, no monthly fee.
Drawdown
$1,000 MLL
Drawdown type
EOD trailing (the detailed lock-balance/LucidScale table published for LucidPro/LucidDirect was not separately republished for LucidFlex in the KB — treat the general EOD-trailing mechanism as confirmed, specific trail-lock numbers for Flex as unconfirmed/medium confidence).
Daily loss limit
Optional $600 fixed, customizable at purchase (independent choice from eval).
Consistency rule
NONE on LucidFlex funded accounts (explicitly confirmed) — this is Flex's headline feature.
Payout schedule
No fixed window. Must show profit ≥$100 on at least 5 separate trading days in the cycle, AND positive net profit for the cycle. Min payout $500. Max payout = 50% of profit, capped at $1,000 flat (does not increase with repeat payouts). Max 5 payouts per account, then mandatory move to Live. No buffer-balance requirement.
Profit split
90/10.
Scaling or contract limits
Scaling plan (funded stage only, none in eval): $0-999 sim profit = 1 mini/10 micro; $1,000-1,999 = 2 minis/20 micros (max for this size). Contract limit updates only at end of session, not intraday.
Other rules
No payout buffer required (unlike Pro/Daily/Direct).

LucidDaily 25KPrice is configurable (selected at checkout by EOD-vs-Intraday drawdown and DLL ON/OFF), not a single published figure. Third-party trackers (medium confidence, not directly confirmed by me on the official price ladder) list roughly $75 (Intraday+DLL on) up to $88.20 (EOD+DLL off) pre-coupon-stack, with a further 40%-off style promo often applied on top; reset fee likewise variable.

Evaluation phase

Profit target
$1,250
Max drawdown
$1,000 MLL
Drawdown type
Trader's choice at checkout: End-of-Day OR Intraday (Intraday priced lower, EOD offers more flexibility).
Daily loss limit
Optional at checkout; if enabled, fixed DLL = $600 (does not trail with the MLL).
Consistency rule
50% with the same built-in cushion as LucidFlex (pass achievable in ~2 days).
Min trading days
None explicit.
Max contracts
2 minis or 20 micros
Other rules
One-time fee, no rebilling, real-time dashboard, 5-30 min funded activation.

Funded phase

Account kind
Sim-funded; automatically moved to LucidLive once the account hits/exceeds its Maximum Daily Profit cap (see below), or per the standard discretionary criteria.
Activation or monthly fee
FREE, no monthly fee.
Drawdown
$1,000 MLL
Drawdown type
ALWAYS Intraday in the funded stage (regardless of what was chosen in eval). Trails to $26,100 Initial Trail Balance, then locks at $25,100.
Daily loss limit
Optional $600 fixed (same on/off choice carried from eval).
Consistency rule
NONE on funded.
Payout schedule
Daily payout requests allowed. Eligibility = profit above buffer ($26,100 = MLL+$100) AND positive net profit since last payout. Min payout $500; payout maximum is simply whatever sim profit sits above the buffer. Maximum Daily Profit cap = $6,000/day — hitting/exceeding this auto-triggers the move to LucidLive.
Profit split
90/10.
Scaling or contract limits
No published scaling plan (not documented distinctly for LucidDaily; the design uses the daily-profit cap instead of a scaling ladder — treat 'full size from day one' as medium confidence).
Other rules
NEWS TRADING HARD BREACH: trading U.S. high-impact ('red folder') news is NOT permitted on LucidDaily funded — must be flat from 1 minute before to 1 minute after the event, or the account is breached. (The firm-wide 'Other Activities' article states news trading is simply 'Not allowed on Daily' without separately distinguishing eval vs. funded, so this restriction likely also applies during the LucidDaily evaluation — not separately confirmed for eval specifically.)

Drawdown
$1,000 MLL
Drawdown type
EOD trailing. This tier shows 'None' for both Fixed DLL and Initial Trail Balance in official docs (no LucidScale threshold defined at this size).

'Min Day to Payout: 5' is listed on the pricing page — this appears to be the practical minimum implied by the 20% consistency math (need profit spread across ~5 days) rather than a separately-stated hard day-count gate; not independently corroborated in the LucidDirect Payout Objectives KB article.

Platforms: CONFIRMED 2026-09-16 via direct fetch of the official Supported Platforms article (support.lucidtrading.com/en/articles/11404614-supported-platforms), re-verified independently twice: via CQG feed — NinjaTrader, Tradovate, TradingView. Via Rithmic feed — MotiveWave (Lucid Partner), Quantower (Lucid Partner), Tradesea, Sierra Chart, Jigsaw, Bookmap, ATAS, R|Trader Pro (official Rithmic platform), MultiCharts. Official article states all listed platforms work with all Lucid account types. (Still only one official source cited; no independent third-party corroboration of the full list was found.)
Universal conduct rules: MAX ACCOUNTS: 5 funded accounts maximum per household, across all Lucid plans combined (official FAQ). OVERNIGHT/SESSION HOURS: No genuine overnight or swing holding is permitted on ANY Lucid account type, including LucidLive real-capital accounts. LucidPro/LucidFlex/LucidDaily/LucidDirect (sim) positions must be flat by 4:45 PM ET Mon-Fri; Lucid auto-closes anything left open (this is NOT a breach/penalty, just a forced flatten); the market/session reopens 6:00 PM ET Sun-Thu; holiday early-closes override the 4:45 PM cutoff. LucidLive real accounts: 'swing trading is not allowed'; positions must close by 4:45 PM ET on Tradovate or 4:15 PM ET on Rithmic, with an optional auto-liquidate safety feature configurable at onboarding. NEWS TRADING: Permitted (with a full-responsibility/slippage disclaimer) on LucidPro, LucidFlex, and LucidDirect at every tier, both eval and funded. PROHIBITED as a hard breach specifically on LucidDaily (documented explicitly for the funded stage; the general 'Other Activities' article states news trading is 'Not allowed on Daily' without separately carving out eval, so it likely also applies to the LucidDaily evaluation, though that specific case is not separately confirmed) — traders must be flat from 1 minute before to 1 minute after any 'red folder'/high-impact USD news event. HEDGING: Strictly prohibited in every form — across a trader's own multiple accounts, across different users' accounts, across different prop firms, or via correlated assets (e.g., long ES in one account / short NQ in another) — detected by automated systems; first offense resets the flagged accounts to the prior day's balance plus a warning email, repeat offenses cause a permanent breach/ban. Going long a mini and short a micro of the SAME contract in the SAME account is explicitly allowed; doing so across two separate accounts is not. Hedging on LIVE accounts is separately banned by both Lucid and the CME with permanent-ban consequences. COPY TRADING / AUTOMATED TRADING (EAs, bots, trade copiers): Explicitly PERMITTED firm-wide; the trader bears full responsibility for any software errors or malfunctions. HIGH-FREQUENCY TRADING (HFT): PROHIBITED — defined as very high order volumes executed within seconds/milliseconds via algorithms; first offense is a written warning, repeated offenses forfeit HFT-derived profits, close the account, and result in a permanent ban from Lucid services. MICROSCALPING: PROHIBITED — flagged automatically if more than 50% of an account's profit comes from trades held 5 seconds or less; triggers manual review, then (if bad faith is confirmed) a warning, then forfeiture of flagged profits and possible permanent ban on repeat. Note this is distinct from 'genuine scalping' (short-term trades reflecting realistic execution), which IS allowed. SCALING INTO POSITIONS / DCA: Permitted with no entry-method limits; martingaling (repeatedly adding to losers hoping for a reversal) is discouraged as unsustainable but is not itself a documented rule violation. 'FLIPPING' (quick in-and-out trades purely to rack up trading-day counts): explicitly allowed, not restricted. GENERAL INTEGRITY CLAUSE: Prohibits exploiting system errors/update delays or simulated-price discrepancies not reflective of real markets. HOUSEHOLD RULE: If one household member has a LucidLive real account, other members of that household may not simultaneously trade Lucid simulated accounts. LIVE TRANSITION MECHANICS: All eligible funded accounts (with ≥1 payout) move to LucidLive together when a trader is promoted; any simulated accounts with $0 payouts are closed and refunded rather than moved; new live accounts start at $0 balance with daily payouts, EOD drawdown, and no daily loss limit, plus a one-time 'Live Bonus' (up to $4,500 depending on size) paid at 90/10 split once the account closes a session with profit ≥ its starting live drawdown. COOLDOWN: A trader who blows a live account faces a standard 2-week cooldown before purchasing a new evaluation; repeated reckless/'yolo' blow-ups can extend this at Lucid's discretion. PAYOUT METHODS (firm-wide): Plaid (instant U.S. bank transfer), WorkMarket by ADP (U.S. and international, bank transfer or PayPal, funds as soon as next business day), and Crypto (BTC/ETH/LTC/USDT/USDC, international traders); average processing once approved is about 15 minutes, with funds disbursed within 2 business days. NO MONTHLY FEES ANYWHERE: every Lucid account (eval, reset, or Direct) is a single one-time purchase — there is no recurring/subscription fee at any stage, including funded and Live.
News and overnight: See universal_rules for full detail. Summary: Overnight/swing holding is not permitted on any account type (sim or live) — everything must be flat by 4:45 PM ET (4:15 PM ET on Rithmic for Live), auto-flattened by Lucid with no penalty for the sim accounts, and the session reopens 6:00 PM ET Sun-Thu. News trading around scheduled/unscheduled economic releases is allowed (trader bears full risk) on LucidPro, LucidFlex, and LucidDirect, but is a hard breach on LucidDaily for U.S. high-impact ('red folder') news unless the trader is flat from 1 minute before to 1 minute after the release.
Corrections and uncertainty

This conflates two separate mechanisms. Per Lucid Trading's official Help Center, once the account balance exceeds the Initial Trail Balance, the Max Loss Limit (MLL) LOCKS PERMANENTLY at initial balance plus $100 ($25,100 for the 25K, $50,100 for the 50K, $100,100 for the 100K) and never moves again for the life of the account. The LucidScale DLL (60% of highest end-of-day profit, never decreasing) replaces the Fixed Daily Loss Limit, which is the single-day soft-breach cap, not the MLL or account floor. The ruleset's own eval-stage entries correctly state the lock value (trail balance then locks at initial plus $100), but the funded-stage entries then wrongly reassign the scaling LucidScale formula to the MLL instead of to the DLL. Practical effect for a trader: the account's hard floor does not scale up with profit past the trail balance, it stays fixed at initial plus $100 forever; only the daily soft-breach limit scales with LucidScale.

Expanded supported-platforms list to the full official set; added new invite-only LucidMaxx program (not purchasable, added as unavailable/stub entry pending fuller detail). NOTE: the '10 evaluation accounts' figure found is a COMBINED cap with the 5 funded accounts (10 total), not an additional 10 — do not add this as a separate universal_rules fact without that correction. LucidDaily pricing remains unresolved (appears to have 4 sub-variants: Intraday/EOD × DLL/no-DLL) — left unchanged pending a live-checkout check.
Official source Official source

Corrected LucidPro evaluation DLLs to fixed 1200/1800/2700 for 50K/100K/150K. Hitting DLL pauses trading; reaching MLL can still fail the account.
Official source Official source

Corrected false no-evaluation Maxx claim. Added Legacy Black and separately identified Legacy/New Maxx size/stage profiles. New Maxx adds Pre-Live and static live floor. Single-source figures remain manual-entry; no inferred legacy cutoff or live limits.
