Challenges
No. Challenges have no time limits — the Two-Phase eval stays open until you pass or fail, and funded accounts stay open until you take your 5th payout or hit the max loss. The only day-count rules are minimums, plus an inactivity rule: accounts with no trading activity for 10 consecutive trading days are closed.

No. TradeSport challenges have no time limits anywhere:
- Two-Phase evaluation: no deadline. The eval account stays open until you pass, exceed the max loss, or choose to buy a reset. Trade once a week or every day — your pace is up to you.
- Funded accounts (both formats): no expiration. The account stays open until you take your 5th payout (which closes it) or hit the max loss.
- Activation: when you pass a Two-Phase eval, you complete identity verification (KYC) and sign the Trader Agreement with Prop Account LC to launch your funded account — at no additional charge.
One rule to know: the inactivity rule. An account with no trading activity for 10 consecutive trading days (roughly two calendar weeks) is closed for inactivity — so trade at your own pace, just don't go completely dark for two weeks.
The only day-count rules are minimums, not deadlines:
- Two-Phase eval: minimum 3 trading days.
- Two-Phase funded: minimum 5 funded trading days before your first payout.
- Both formats: 5 winning days per payout/milestone cycle at the tier's per-day minimum. Five is a floor, not a cap — you can take as many days as you need.
One daily mechanic to know: all positions are automatically flattened at 3:59:59 PM ET each day, and markets follow the CME futures calendar (nearly 24 hours, 6 days a week). But beyond staying active, there is never a clock running on your challenge itself.

- Are challenges real money or simulated?Challenge accounts use simulated (virtual) funds against real-time market data — none of your capital is at risk beyond the fees you pay. The payouts, however, are real cash: you keep 90% of every payout, issued by Prop Account, LLC and disbursed via Rise, typically within 24–48 hours of request.
- Can I run multiple challenges at once?Yes — you can hold up to $1,000,000 in combined active simulated accounts at a time, in any mix of formats and tiers (roughly 20 × $50K accounts). Purchases above the limit wait on hold and activate when a slot opens. One user profile per person.
- Challenge payout amountsEvery challenge account pays out exactly 5 times, then closes. One-Phase pays $1,500–$3,000 per payout by tier with lifetime caps of $9,000–$19,000. Two-Phase milestones range from $500 to a $9,000 final cap with lifetime caps of $6,500–$20,500. You keep 90% of every payout.
- Challenge resets: how they workChallenge resets are unlimited and cost the same as your tier's entry fee. Each reset is a brand-new account with a new account ID — the old account stays closed. Two-Phase resets always start back in the evaluation phase.
- Challenge vs. Trade League: what's the difference?Challenges are individual funded-account products with no timer and published payout amounts — payouts 1–4 are fixed dollar amounts and the 5th pays up to a published cap. Trade League is a monthly ranked tournament where everyone trades an identical $50,000 account and the top 10% of paid entries share a revenue-share pool.
