Size

TradeDay's core evaluation with a drawdown that trails your intraday high (including open profit). 5-day minimum and 30% consistency to pass; once funded you can request a payout after one day with no buffer, but the split is only 50/50 until an account holds $4,000+ profit.

Price: $59/month (shown on the homepage as a discount from $131/month; the help-center size table lists $125). No activation fee.

Evaluation

passing the test
Profit target
$3,000 net profit after simulated commissions
Max drawdown
$2,000, intraday trailing: the limit follows your highest balance during the day, including open (unrealised) profit. It stops trailing once it reaches the $50,000 starting balance.
Daily loss limit
None set by the firm (optional self-set limits in Tradovate)
Consistency rule
No single day may be more than 30% of total profit. Going over does not fail the account; it raises the amount needed to pass to your best day divided by 0.30.
Minimum trading days
5 trading days (any day with at least one trade; not required to be consecutive; no time limit)
Max contracts
5 contracts (or 50 micros)
Also know
Must trade only permitted products and hours; flat 10 minutes before the close and around Tier 1 news. Fail = buy a reset or wait for the free reset at the next monthly renewal.

Funded

after you pass
Activation fee
None
Max drawdown
$2,000 trailing, always calculated intraday in Funded Sim (even if the evaluation was end-of-day). The trailing limit is based on gross profit (current profit plus payouts already taken), so payouts do not pull it back down.
When the drawdown stops trailing
Per the drawdown help article, the trailing limit stops rising once it reaches the $50,000 starting balance and stays there.
Daily loss limit
None set by the firm
Consistency rule
None in Funded Sim
Max contracts / scaling
Funded Sim: 5 contracts (or 50 micros), carried over from the evaluation. Funded Live: set by the profit brought over from Sim: 2 contracts/20 micros for $0-3K, 3/30 for $3K-6K, 4/40 for $6K-10K; the head of trading can raise or lower limits.
Also know
Each Funded Sim account is reviewed for Funded Live at $10,000 gross profit (profit plus payouts). Trading must stop there; access pauses at the 4:30 pm CT end-of-day run and profit above $10,000 is removed and forfeited. Most reviewed accounts move to Funded Live (setup up to 10 business days); occasionally an extension or direct transfer is offered. Funded Live has a slippage buffer ($500 / $750 / $1,000 depending on the balance brought over) and a $156/month per exchange data fee.

Quick Pay - Intraday drawdown

TradeDay's core evaluation with a drawdown that trails your intraday high (including open profit). 5-day minimum and 30% consistency to pass; once funded you can request a payout after one day with no buffer, but the split is only 50/50 until an account holds $4,000+ profit.

Quick Pay - End of Day drawdown

Same as Quick Pay Intraday but the evaluation drawdown only moves up from closing balances, at a higher monthly price. Once funded, the Funded Sim drawdown switches to intraday trailing.

Fast Pass (End of Day drawdown)

Faster evaluation (3-day minimum, looser 45% consistency, end-of-day drawdown) at a higher price. Funded accounts keep the end-of-day drawdown and pay 80/20 from the first payout, but payouts need 5 profitable days, are capped per request, and contract limits start small and scale up.
