Heads up: recent changes and conflicting pages 9
- Most help-center and FAQ sections on bulenox.com load their text from a CMS in the browser, and only the first section of each page is published in readable form. Many headings exist without readable text: Qualification (Option 1/Option 2 parameters, Reset, Commissions, Multiple Accounts), Fast Track (First Payout, Subsequent Payouts, Consistency Rule, Payout Limits, Profit Split, Payout Processing, Funded Account Review), Momentum (Qualification Rules, Master Activation, Payout Eligibility, Qualifying Profitable Days, 35% Consistency Rule, Minimum Balance and Request, Payout Caps), Master (Activation Fee, Trading Rules, Multiple Master Accounts, Withdrawal Rules, Inactivity Rule), Funded (Setup, Withdrawal Rules), Payment (Account Cancellation, Return Policy) and all FAQ answers except 'What can I trade?'. Fields depending on them are null.
- The Accounts & Pricing plan cards ($145/$175/$215/$325; 3/7/12/15 contracts; 'Drawdown up to' $1,500/$2,500/$3,000/$4,500; 'No daily loss limit') sit under Qualification / Fast Track / Momentum tabs with no visible active tab. They are listed here as the Qualification plan because their prices and drawdowns differ from the Fast Track and Momentum help-center tables; the page does not label which risk model the figures belong to.
- Scaling contradiction: the home page says the End-of-Day model means 'Contract size scales up as your cash on hand grows', and llms.txt says End-of-Day 'Includes a scaling plan', while the Fast Track page says Option 2 'has no scaling plan' and both the Fast Track and Momentum tables are titled 'EOD Drawdown, No scaling'.
- Automation contradiction: the Terms of Use (updated October 2026) prohibit 'engaging in any automated use of the system' and say third-party algorithms 'must be reviewed and approved by the Bulenox management team before use', while the Qualification help page simply allows trade copiers and third-party API connections for a $100/month fee.
- Product count: the FAQ says '41 futures contracts', while the rate sheet (updated Aug 11, 2026) lists 40 instruments.
- Fast Track is described in llms.txt as 'trade funded from day one', but the Fast Track help page says it starts 'in a simulated live environment from day one'; live capital only comes after the Funded Account transition (three successful payouts, at Bulenox's discretion).
- Daily payouts: the home page headline says 'Payouts everyday', but the detailed line says daily same-day payouts are 'Available on Fast Track and Momentum accounts'; payout timing for Qualification-path Master Accounts is not stated on readable pages.
- Recent changes visible on official pages: the commission rate sheet is dated Aug 11, 2026; the Terms of Use are marked 'Updated October 2026'; the largest size now sold is $150,000; Qualification and Momentum are one-time purchases with 30 days of access. Third-party news sites report that Fast Track and Momentum launched on August 17, 2026 together with the end of monthly evaluation subscriptions and of the $250,000 size; that date is not stated on the official pages.
- Fast Track and Momentum differ at $25,000 under Option 2: Fast Track has no daily loss limit there, while Momentum's $25,000 Option 2 has a $600 daily loss limit. Fast Track drawdowns ($1,000/$2,000/$4,000/$5,500) also differ from Momentum's ($1,000/$2,000/$3,000/$4,500) at $100,000 and $150,000.

Rules for every Bulenox account
Trading hours, news, banned strategies, account limits, fees and more.
- Account sizes
Accounts are sold in $25,000, $50,000, $100,000 and $150,000 sizes. $150,000 is the largest size currently offered.
source · bulenox.com - Three ways to get funded
There are three paths: Qualification (pass an evaluation, then activate a Master Account), Fast Track (no evaluation, buy once and start on a Master-level account) and Momentum (a 30-day evaluation that includes the Momentum Master with no activation fee).
source · bulenox.com - Risk model choice
Before buying, a trader picks Option 1 (Trailing Drawdown) or Option 2 (End-of-Day Drawdown). The choice is locked for the life of the account. Account sizes, targets and platforms are the same; only the risk model changes.
source · bulenox.com - Trailing drawdown (Option 1)
The loss limit follows the account's highest value in real time, including open (unrealized) profit, and never moves back down. Full contract size is available from day one with no scaling steps.
source · bulenox.com - End-of-day drawdown (Option 2)
The loss limit moves only once a day, at the close, based on realized profit, and stays fixed during the day. Option 2 also has a daily loss limit; hitting it pauses trading for the rest of the day instead of closing the account.

source · bulenox.com - Bots, algorithms and HFT
The Terms of Use prohibit automated use of the system, 'scalping' algorithms, the DTC Protocol Bridge API or automated discretionary trading, and using algorithms to open and close hundreds or thousands of rapid trades. Any third-party algorithm or trading software must be reviewed and approved by Bulenox management before use. Paying the $100 third-party software fee does not approve any specific algorithm or strategy.
source · bulenox.com - Exploiting the simulator
Placing reckless trades in fast or rough markets to profit from a lack of execution is prohibited. If abuse is suspected, Bulenox may refuse to pay any profit.
source · bulenox.com - Hedging and copy trading between traders
The readable official pages do not state a specific rule on hedging or on copying trades between different people's accounts.
source · bulenox.com - One trader per household
A trader must be the only Bulenox trader profile holder in their household. Other profiles at the same address may be closed or consolidated, and their accounts, profits or payouts may be reviewed or denied, unless Bulenox Compliance approves in writing.
source · bulenox.com - Account sharing and re-registration
Selling or transferring a profile is prohibited. After suspension or termination, a trader may not open a new account under their own name, a fake name or someone else's name. Bulenox may restrict or terminate accounts at any time without notice.
source · bulenox.com - Account limits
Up to five Master-level accounts can be held at once (Master, Fast Track and Momentum in any combination). There is no limit on the number of Qualification accounts.
source · bulenox.com - Breaching the drawdown
Hitting the maximum drawdown suspends the account; it is removed from the platform within 24 hours and disappears from the dashboard. For a Qualification account the subscription stays in the profile until it expires, so the account can be reset before then. At least one active account is needed to log in; if every account is suspended, the trader must reset one or buy a new one.
source · bulenox.com - Resets
Suspended Qualification accounts can be reset before their access period ends. The reset price is not shown on the readable official pages.
source · bulenox.com - Access period
Qualification and Momentum evaluations are one-time purchases valid for 30 days (Momentum: 30 calendar days from activation).

All sales are final and no refunds are issued. The Fast Track fee is described as one-time and non-refundable. Residents of certain US states may cancel without penalty before midnight of the third business day after purchase (Sundays and holidays excluded).
source · bulenox.com - Eligibility and KYC
No background check is required. Users must not be minors (generally under 18), and the service is not intended for places where its use would be illegal. A list of restricted countries is not published on the readable official pages.
source · bulenox.com - Profit split and payout fees
Traders keep up to 90% of profits, and there are no payout processing fees.
source · bulenox.com - Daily payouts
Payouts can be requested on any trading day and are processed the same day. This is available on Fast Track and Momentum accounts, with no minimum number of trading days before the first request.
source · bulenox.com - Master Account activation
Reaching the profit target does not automatically open a Master Account. The account is reviewed; after approval the trader receives a certificate, the Master Account Agreement and activation instructions by email and must complete the documents. The Qualification account then closes automatically. Once a Master Account is activated there are no monthly fees.
source · bulenox.com - Inactivity
The Master Account section of the help center has an 'Inactivity Rule' heading, but its text is not readable on the published page, so the details are not confirmed.
source · bulenox.com - Moving to a live Funded Account
After three successful payouts on active Master Accounts, those accounts may be considered for a live Funded Account trading Bulenox capital. The move is at Bulenox's discretion and not automatic. The trader must accept the Funded Account Agreement; if they decline, the Master Account is closed and no further reward is paid from it.
