Trade The Pool

• Day Trade Programs: FLEX (6% target, 2% Daily Pause, 4% Max Loss, unlimited time) and MAX (6% target, 1% Daily Pause, 3% Max Loss, 60-day limit) on $5K–$200K buying power
• Swing Programs: FLEX (15% target, 3% Daily Pause, 7% Max Loss, unlimited time) and MAX (15% target, 3% Daily Pause, 7% Max Loss, 120-day limit) on $15K–$300K buying power
• One-step evaluation → risk review → funded account; funded scale-ups (“pump”) increase buying power and Daily Pause when targets are met

Scaling Plan

Trade The Pool offers an “unlimited” scale-up (pump) framework on funded accounts: once a funded account reaches the scale-up profit target (commonly 10% valid profit), the current level is closed and the next level is issued with higher buying power and a higher Daily Pause (daily loss allowance).

On scaling, profits are split according to the program’s profit split (commonly 70% trader / 30% TTP), and the trader’s share is carried into the next level as credits; if equity later drops below the initial balance, those carried credits are reduced first.

Daily Pause (Max Daily Loss)

Trade The Pool controls daily risk using a Daily Pause threshold. If the Daily Pause is hit, the account is disabled for the remainder of the trading day (with recalibration at the start of the next day).

Current program parameters on the public program page show:

• Day Trade: 2% Daily Pause on FLEX and 1% Daily Pause on MAX.
• Swing: 3% Daily Pause (FLEX and MAX).

Max Loss (Maximum Overall Loss)

Each account type has a lifetime Max Loss limit (overall drawdown from the starting level):

• Day Trade: 4% Max Loss on FLEX and 3% Max Loss on MAX.
• Swing: 7% Max Loss (FLEX and MAX).

On funded accounts, Trade The Pool also applies a buffer rule: once equity reaches 3× the Daily Pause, the account’s max drawdown is moved up to the initial balance (falling below it can terminate the account).

Drawdown Model

Trade The Pool’s primary risk model is static (starting-level) drawdown, implemented via (1) a Daily Pause (daily loss allowance) and (2) a Max Loss (overall loss limit). These limits are expressed as percentages of buying power for each program.

For funded accounts, an additional protective rule can effectively tighten drawdown after strong performance: once equity reaches 3× the Daily Pause, the max drawdown line is moved up to the initial balance.

Commissions

Trade The Pool charges stock/ETF commissions of $0.005 per share with a $0.75 minimum per filled order (pricing may also include pass-through fees and can vary by program/partner).

News Trading

Trade The Pool does not publish a blanket “no news trading” restriction for evaluations on its public program parameters, but equity trading around major news is inherently higher-risk and may involve volatility, slippage, and halts. Trading is not permitted during regulatory trading halts.
