Verified rules

Drawdown · what kills you

Primary source
Trailing

All plans use an end-of-day trailing drawdown ($1,000–$5,000 by plan and size) that moves only at session close and locks permanently at initial balance + $100 once you clear the initial trail.

Contains unverified parts

Daily loss

Primary source
Doesn't fail acct

Soft daily limit that restricts you until the next session without failing the account. On LucidPro it is $1,200 (50K) to $2,700 (150K), 25K none, fixed until the initial trail is cleared. LucidDirect funded accounts instead use a scaling DLL set at 60% of the peak end-of-day BALANCE ($1,200 to $3,000 by size).

Consistency

Primary source

No consistency in the evaluation; on funded LucidPro your best day can't exceed 40% of profit at payout request (it only blocks the payout), and LucidFlex uses 5 winning days per cycle instead.

Targets & min days

Primary source
0 min days⏱ 30d

50K: $3,000 target, $2,000 EOD drawdown, 2-day minimum.

Payouts & split

Primary source

Payouts have no fixed windows — request whenever you qualify and get paid within 2 business days — at a 90/10 split from the first dollar with per-payout caps by plan and size.

Pricing

Secondary source

LucidFlex 50K: one-time, ~$149 list (often ~$89 with a code), no activation.

News trading

Primary source
News allowed

Lucid Trading allows news trading with no restrictions. You may open or close positions around scheduled and unscheduled news events, with no blackout window and no flat requirement. Lucid warns that news volatility can cause slippage and trigger its velocity-logic mechanisms, and that traders bear full responsibility.
