What stands out
The daily loss limit ends the evaluation. On the 50K Gauntlet Mini it's $1,100, and breaking it fails the account rather than pausing the day.
Passing needs consistency. No single day may be more than 30% of your profit. The drawdown is $2,000, trailing your end-of-day balance and stopping at the starting balance.
Size scales with your profit. Both programmes start the 50K at 6 contracts and raise the limit as your balance grows. News trading is allowed, and positions close by 3:50 PM Central.
Live accounts trail intraday. Once live, the drawdown follows open profit as it happens.
The Trader Career Path climbs in steps. After the evaluation, live capital rises from $50,000 to $100,000, $200,000 and $400,000, each step with its own target, daily limit and drawdown, shown in the table below.
