Verified 2026-08-17 · from Apex Trader Funding's own pages
Every number below was read from Apex Trader Funding's own site or help center on the date above — no hearsay, no stale YouTube reviews. Fields we couldn't verify from an official page are shown as unverified rather than guessed, because a wrong drawdown number is worse than a missing one.
Payouts: 100% of payouts to the trader, $500 minimum per request. 5 qualifying days ($100–$300 daily minimum by size) between payouts; safety net of drawdown + $100 must remain. Hard limit of 6 payouts per funded account, then it closes (per-request caps rise $1,000→$5,000).
One-time fee, 30-day evaluation window, NO resets and no rebill. Accounts bought before 2026-03-01 run on entirely different legacy rules — never apply this table to them. Funded trail stops at start + $100.
| Size | Eval fee | Activation | Target | Drawdown | Drawdown behavior | Daily loss | Max contracts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $25,000 | $167 once | $59 | $1,500 | $1,000 | trails intraday, enforced live — funded: stops trailing at start + $100 | — | 4 minis (eval) / 2 funded |
| $50,000 | $249 once | $59 | $3,000 | $2,000 | trails intraday, enforced live — funded: stops trailing at start + $100 | — | 6 minis (eval) / 4 funded |
| $100,000 | $399 once | $59 | $6,000 | $3,000 | trails intraday, enforced live — funded: stops trailing at start + $100 | — | 8 minis (eval) / 6 funded |
| $150,000 | $599 once | $59 | $9,000 | $4,000 | trails intraday, enforced live — funded: stops trailing at start + $100 | — | 12 minis (eval) / 10 funded |
Payouts: Same funded policy as the Intraday line (100% to trader, $500 minimum, 6-payout lifetime, daily minimums $100–$350 by size).
Threshold recalculates once per day from the end-of-day balance, but touching it intraday still fails the account. Funded consistency: no single day may be ≥50% of profit since the last payout.
| Size | Eval fee | Activation | Target | Drawdown | Drawdown behavior | Daily loss | Max contracts |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| $25,000 | $450 once | $119 | $1,500 | $1,000 | trails end-of-day, enforced live | $500 | 4 minis (eval) / 2 funded |
| $50,000 | $550 once | $139 | $3,000 | $2,000 | trails end-of-day, enforced live | $1,000 | 6 minis (eval) / 4 funded |
| $100,000 | $990 once | $149 | $6,000 | $3,000 | trails end-of-day, enforced live | $1,500 | 8 minis (eval) / 6 funded |
| $150,000 | $1,890 once | $159 | $9,000 | $4,000 | trails end-of-day, enforced live | $2,000 | 12 minis (eval) / 10 funded |
When a trailing threshold updates (end-of-day vs live with your peak) and when it's enforcedare different axes — several firms move the line once a day but still fail the account the moment you touch it intraday. A single "trailing drawdown" label can't express that, and it's exactly the distinction that decides whether you can hold through a pullback.
