Payout received+$8,000

Net cost$500

The first $8K payout has nearly fully offset the cost of getting the program off the ground. From here, every additional payout is net positive.

Scaling plan

$25K cash reserved for purchasing additional accounts. The firm allows up to 20 accounts per trader.

Deliberately moving slowly — wanted to prove the model with a real payout before scaling up. That milestone is now hit.

Next step: convert the $25K reserve into additional funded accounts and stack payouts.
