Rule by rule
Alpha One uses a 6% trail off the balance high-water mark that locks at breakeven after +6%; all other programs use static 6–10% floors, always breached on live equity.
A mix of static floors (8% Two-Step, 3% Three-Step, 10% BNPL eval) and trailing ones (5% One-Step, 3% Instant, 8% funded BNPL off the floating-equity peak), with no documentation of whether the trail ever stops at breakeven.
A hard daily limit of 3–5% by program, set from balance (or the greater of balance/equity) at 00:00 GMT+3 and breached on live equity — touching it closes the account.
A hard daily limit of 2–4% by program on the higher of equity or balance at 00:00 UTC; only the BNPL evaluation has no daily limit.
No consistency in any evaluation; only on-demand payouts require your best day to stay within 40% of total profits and 2% of gross profits left in the account — the bi-weekly path has no rule.
A 20% consistency score on Instant, funded BNPL and OMO (15% per trade on Mini) gates withdrawals, plus a universal rule: above $5,000 profit your best day can't exceed 50%.
Phase 1 10% ($5,000), Phase 2 5% ($2,500), minimum 3 days per phase; 10% ($5,000) max overall loss, 5% daily.
8% ($4,000) and 5% ($2,500), no minimum days; 8% ($4,000) max overall loss, 4% daily.
Traders choose bi-weekly payouts (first request needs a minimum $100 profit and at least 5 trading days) or on-demand (subject to the 40% best-day and 2% gross-profit rules); the split is up to 80%. Alpha own pages do not state a fixed 14-day start or 2-business-day processing.
Payouts every 10 business days at 80/20 (Mini at 70% and within 24 hours), with a global $10,000-per-trader cap every rolling 30 days and the M2 Account Saver cutting your split to 50% at a 2% drawdown.
