Understanding the Buffer Rule for Payouts in Fast Track Trading
In Fast Track Trading, the buffer is a key requirement you must meet before requesting a payout. The buffer acts as a safety net, ensuring that you have a cushion of profits before you can request a payout. This rule ensures that traders maintain a consistent and disciplined approach to trading. Here’s everything you need to know about the buffer rule.
What are the Buffer Rules?
The buffer is equal to the Profit Target (PT). This means that traders must keep at least 5% of the total account size in the account at all times. Here’s how it works for Rally and Daytona:
Traders must maintain the buffer plus $250 before making a withdrawal.
Rally: $1,500 (5% of $25,000 + $250) minimum balance required to withdraw.
Daytona: $2,750 (5% of $50,000 + $250) minimum balance required to withdraw.
Here’s how the buffer works for GT and LeMans accounts:
GT: $7,500 (5% of $150,000) minimum balance required for the first payout.
LeMans: $15,000 (5% of $300,000) minimum balance required for the first payout.
For the first payout on GT and LeMans, traders can withdraw into the buffer, but the remaining balance after withdrawal must not fall below:
GT: At least $4,500 remaining after the first withdrawal.
LeMans: At least $11,000 remaining after the first withdrawal.
For Subsequent Payouts (After First Payout) on GT and LeMans the minimum balance to withdraw changes to include an additional $250 buffer:
GT: Must have at least $4,750 to request any subsequent withdrawal.
LeMans: Must have at least $11,250 to request any subsequent withdrawal.
Once you hit the buffer, your minimum account balance will become the same as your starting account balance. It doesn’t matter how much you make or lose in this situation, you will always get a payout if you have also followed the consistency rule.
How to Meet the Buffer Rule
To meet the buffer rule, follow these steps:
Achieve the Profit Target: Ensure that your account balance for Rally and Daytona has increased by 5% +$250 from your starting balance. For GT and LeMans, ensure that your account balance has increased by 5% for the first payout and then 5% +$250 for subsequent payouts.
Maintain the Profit: It’s not enough to just hit the buffer momentarily. You need to close the trading day at or above the buffer, even if you lose money the next day.
Consistent Trading: Consistency is key. You must follow the consistency rule, which means your profits on any single day must not exceed 20% of your total profits.
Buffer Calculator
If you still don’t know how to calculate your buffer amount based on your profit, you can use our custom buffer calculator to calculate if you have hit the buffer and have enabled payouts on your account.
Payouts After Meeting the Buffer Rule
Once you've met the buffer while adhering to the consistency rule, each payout window must contain at least 10 real trading days to be approved for withdrawal and the minimum balance after withdrawal must still meet the same buffer requirements for subsequent payouts.
