# What does a Transition to Live look like?



When a futures trader is moved to live:

●      Traders receive one live account per eligible funded account

●      Each funded account must have received at least one payout to qualify

All live accounts begin with:

●      $0 starting balance

●      Daily payouts

●      End-of-day drawdown

●      No daily loss limit

_\*Certain extremely volatile contracts have reduced position sizing to ensure traders do not exceed the live drawdown._
