A Bulenox Master account keeps the risk model you chose and locks the drawdown at the start plus $100. A payout needs ten trading days in the cycle, a 40% consistency rule and a balance above the safety reserve plus $1,000; the first three payouts are capped. You keep 90%, and after three payouts live may follow.

## Master account at a glance

| Size | Max loss | Max contracts | Days for a payout | Best-day rule on payouts | Balance to request | Minimum payout | Max per request | Payouts per account | You keep |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 25K | $1,500 | not published | 10 trading days | 40% | $27,600 | $1,000 | $1,000 | no limit stated | 90% |
| 50K | $2,500 | not published | 10 trading days | 40% | $53,600 | $1,000 | $1,500 | no limit stated | 90% |
| 100K | $3,000 | not published | 10 trading days | 40% | $104,100 | $1,000 | $1,750 | no limit stated | 90% |
| 150K | $4,500 | not published | 10 trading days | 40% | $155,600 | $1,000 | $2,000 | no limit stated | 90% |

"Balance to request" is the starting balance plus the safety threshold reserve plus the $1,000 minimum payout. Contract limits depend on the risk model, so they're below instead of in the table.

## Your risk model carries over

The Master account keeps the option you picked in Qualification:

- **Option 1, trailing:** the floor follows your highest point in real time, open profit included. Full contract size from the start: 3, 7, 12 or 15 minis.
- **Option 2, end of day:** the floor moves once a day at the close, contracts scale up with your balance, and a soft daily loss limit ($1,100 on the 50K) pauses the day. The daily limit disappears once the drawdown locks.

Either way the drawdown locks for good at the starting balance plus $100. On a 50K the floor starts at $47,500 and locks at $50,100 once the account reaches $52,600. Crossing it closes the Master account.

## The payout checklist

1. **Ten trading days** in the current payout cycle.
2. **The 40% rule** on every request, counted fresh after each payout.
3. **Above the reserve.** The balance must stay above the starting balance plus the reserve ($2,600 on the 50K), and the request needs at least $1,000.
4. **Within the cap.** Payouts one to three are capped by size; from the fourth, a request must be under 50% of the account's total profit.

Requests made by Friday 11:59 PM CT are processed on Wednesday. You keep 90%.

The first three payouts on a 50K Master are capped at $1,500 each. After that, each request must stay under half of the account's total profit.

## Costs and limits

- **Activation:** one fee, no monthly payments: $148 on the 50K.
- **Market data:** professional status adds $116 a month for CME data, and the choice is locked when you sign.
- **No overnight positions:** close by 3:59 PM CT.
- **Up to five Master accounts** per trader.

## After three payouts

Bulenox may offer you a Funded account after three successful payouts on your Master accounts. It's not automatic, and declining closes the Master account it applies to. The Funded account starts fresh: Master profits don't transfer.

## Stay active

Trade at least once a week, or the account can be put on hold or disabled.

## Practice it

FundedSim doesn't simulate Bulenox yet. If you trade Option 2, the Apex End of Day and Topstep accounts in the simulator train the same end-of-day habit; for Option 1, the Apex Intraday accounts are the closest match. Check the 40% rule per cycle with the [consistency calculator](https://fundedsim.com/en/calculators/consistency).

## Questions people actually ask

**How much do I need before my first Bulenox payout?**

The starting balance plus the safety threshold reserve plus the $1,000 minimum payout. On a 50K that's $50,000 + $2,600 + $1,000 = $53,600.

**Does the Bulenox consistency rule apply to every payout?**

Yes. The 40% rule applies to every payout request and starts over after each payout.

**What does a Bulenox Master account cost?**

A one-time activation fee and no monthly payments: $143 on the 25K, $148 on the 50K, $248 on the 100K and $498 on the 150K.

**Do I have to move to a Bulenox Funded account?**

No, it's offered after three successful payouts and isn't automatic. If you decline the offer, the Master account it applies to is closed.
