Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about how The Futures Desk works? Find answers to common inquiries below.
Is trading live or simulated?
During the assessment phase, trading is simulated but uses real-time market data. After you pass and build your buffer, you move into a fully live brokerage account where all capital and executions are real.
Are you a regulated broker?
No, we are not a broker. We work exclusively with regulated futures commission merchants that meet strict NFA and CFTC compliance standards.
How do payouts work?
Once you're trading live, you can request daily uncapped payouts with a $100 minimum. Payouts are typically processed within 24 hours via ACH or Rise.
What is the profit split?
You keep 80% of every dollar you withdraw, and the firm keeps 20%. This split never changes as your account grows.
What are the fees and commissions?
There are no activation fees and no hidden costs. We are CME Group members with leased exchange seats, allowing us to offer low, transparent commissions at $2.40 all-in per round trip, and we cover your first professional data fee when you go live.
What platforms are supported?
TFDX (powered by ProjectX) and Rithmic feeds are both supported. You can trade on any compatible platform that connects to these feeds.
What is static drawdown?
Static drawdown means your maximum loss is fixed from your starting balance and never trails upward. This gives you a consistent risk floor instead of one that tightens as you profit.
What trading styles are allowed?
Scalping, day trading, and algorithmic trading are allowed. Swing trading and holding positions beyond the trading session are not permitted.
How many accounts can I have?
You can have up to 4 accounts with a maximum combined drawdown of $6,000. This means you could have 3 Static Core accounts ($2,000 each) or 2 Static Pro accounts ($3,000 each), or a combination that stays within the $6,000 limit. When moving to live trading, accounts must be combined down to a maximum of 2 live accounts.

Futures trading contains substantial risk and is not for every investor. An investor could potentially lose all or more than the investor's initial investment. Only risk capital—money that can be lost without jeopardizing one's financial security or lifestyle—should be used for trading and only those individuals with sufficient risk capital should consider trading. Nothing contained herein is a solicitation or an offer to buy or sell futures, options, or forex. Past performance is not necessarily indicative of future results.
CFTC Rule 4.41 – Hypothetical or Simulated performance results have certain limitations. Unlike an actual performance record, simulated results do not represent actual trading. Also, because the trades have not actually been executed, the results may have under-or-over compensated for the impact, if any, of certain market factors, such as lack of liquidity. Simulated trading programs, in general, are also subject to the fact that they are designed with the benefit of hindsight. No representation is being made that any account will or is likely to achieve profit or losses similar to those shown.
