Largest green day ÷ cycle net profit is compared with the exact product’s published cap and boundary wording.
- Largest day
- $1,200
- Cycle net
- $3,000
- Current share
- 40%
$1,200 ÷ 20% = $6,000 required cycle net. With $3,000 logged, the ratio-only gap is $3,000.
Why a red day can move the payout farther away
A $500 loss cuts cycle net to $2,500 while the $1,200 largest day stays put. The share rises to 48%, and the same ratio now needs $3,500 more net profit. If a later green day becomes the new largest day, the required total can rise again.
This is not a cue to chase the gap. The arithmetic cannot safely turn that gap into a trade size or a fixed number of days. On the sourced examples below, exceeding the cap leaves the payout gate unmet; it is not an instant account failure.

Lucid Trading12 rules
- Scalping / hold timeRestricted
Scalping allowed; micro-scalping banned; flagged if >50% of profit comes from trades held 5 seconds or less.
Open the firm’s clause - News tradingRestricted
Plan-split. Allowed on LucidPro, LucidFlex and LucidDirect: trade around scheduled/unscheduled news with no flat-around-news window. NOT allowed on LucidDaily, where red-folder news is a HARD BREACH - be flat from 1 minute before to 1 minute after the event.
Open the firm’s clause - Overnight / weekendBanned
Intraday only. All positions must be closed by 4:45 PM EST Monday to Friday, and Lucid auto-closes anything still open; trading resumes 6:00 PM EST Sunday to Thursday. No overnight or weekend holds, and swing trading is barred on the new LucidLive accounts.
Open the firm’s clause - Automation / HFTRestricted
Automated systems and copiers permitted (trader liable); HFT prohibited.
Open the firm’s clause - Copy your own accountsAllowed
In-platform and third-party trade copiers permitted (subject to the hedging ban across accounts).
Open the firm’s clause - Copy others / signalsNot published
No explicit rule on external signal services / managed / group copy; the integrity rule implies single-user execution but does not prohibit copying others. Verify with the firm.
- VPS / VPN / remoteNot published
No published VPS/remote-desktop/VPN rule. Verify with the firm.
- Consistency ruleRestricted
Largest single-day profit / total; payout gate, resets after each payout. LucidPro funded 40% (35% on accounts bought or reset before 2025-11-28), LucidFlex eval 50%, LucidDaily eval 50% and none once funded, LucidDirect funded 20%. The LucidPro eval publishes no consistency rule at all.
Open the firm’s clause - Daily loss limitRestricted
All DLLs are soft (lock out new trades, no fail). On LucidPro and LucidFlex the daily loss limit is now an ON/OFF choice made at purchase that applies to BOTH phases and sets the price ($600/$1,200/$1,800/$2,700 by size when ON; OFF costs more). LucidDirect has its own. Lucid's older Flex pages still say "no DLL" - the 2026-08-06 customization article supersedes them.
Open the firm’s clause - Max accountsRestricted
Three separate caps, all per household/family: up to 10 active evaluation accounts, up to 5 active funded accounts (all funded types combined), and up to 5 active LucidLive accounts - with a 10-account ceiling across evaluations and funded accounts together.
Open the firm’s clause - Hedging / DCA / gridBanned
Hedging strictly prohibited incl. across your own accounts and correlated instruments; DCA allowed; martingale/grid not named; verify before relying.
Open the firm’s clause - Account sharingRestricted
Assembled by implication from the integrity + one-household-trader rules; no standalone no-sharing clause is published; verify exact wording with the firm.

Rule sheet reviewed 2026-06-23. Read from each firm's official help center via domain-restricted search (their pages block direct fetch). Open the firm's live terms before relying on any flag; rules change and some specifics are dated. A consistency rule may raise an evaluation target or delay a payout depending on the product and phase; it is not treated here as an instant account failure.
