Every two successful payout requests, your allowable withdrawal percentage will increase by 10%, giving you access to a larger portion of your balance over time as you demonstrate consistency and discipline.
Example:
1st payout: up to 50% withdrawal
3rd payout: up to 60% withdrawal
5th payout: up to 70% withdrawal, and so on.

This rule is designed to ensure traders maintain enough capital in their account to continue trading effectively and manage risk responsibly after each payout.
You must have a minimum of 5 profitable trading days, each showing at least 0.25% profit within the last 30 calendar days to be eligible for a payout.
