Daily loss is a same-day cap, not max loss (the DD column). When a path sells an ON/OFF toggle at checkout, the dollars in this table are the ON amount. OFF means no daily cap — only max loss can fail the account.
Lucid Trading paths in this catalog: LucidPro / LucidFlex / LucidDaily / LucidDirect.
| Path | From | Target | Drawdown | Daily loss | Consistency | What differs |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LucidPro | $108 | $1,250 | $1,000 | $600 | 40% funded; eval can pass in 1 day | DLL is checkout ON/OFF (table $ is ON; OFF = no daily cap). Funded: payout target, 3 days, 5 payouts to live. |
| LucidFlex | $79 | $1,250 | $1,000 | $600 | 50% evaluation only | DLL is checkout ON/OFF (table $ is ON; OFF = no daily cap). Funded: 5 winning days, no consistency %. |
| LucidDaily | $93 | $1,250 | $1,000 | $600 | 50% evaluation only; none funded | DLL is checkout ON/OFF, locked for life (table $ is ON). Catalog row is EOD eval; funded always Intraday; daily payouts. Homepage pricing config 2026-10-07 (DLL kept, before VAULT): EOD eval $93 / reset $65; Intraday eval $79 / reset $55. |

Sample $25K LucidPro · $25K LucidFlex · $25K LucidDaily · $25K LucidDirect. Facts from catalog SKUs, not a full rulebook. Daily loss is a same-day cap, not the Drawdown column. When a path sells an ON/OFF toggle, the dollars here are the ON amount; a dash means no daily cap on that sample.
DLL is not max loss. The Drawdown column is the account-killing floor. DLL is an optional same-day brake sitting above that floor, sold as ON/OFF on Lucid's path cards.
ON: fixed daily cap — $600 / $1,200 / $1,800 / $2,700 on Pro, Flex, and Daily $25K–$150K. LucidDaily help: hitting DLL is a soft breach (locked until the next session if max loss is intact). Confirm Pro/Flex/Direct breach type on the live card.
OFF: no daily cap. A full-day loser can spend the entire trailing max loss and fail the account.
Direct $25K has no DLL. Direct $50K–$150K: $1,200 / $2,100 / $3,000 with the same ON/OFF.
LucidDaily locks the toggle (and EOD vs Intraday eval) at checkout for the life of that account.
The Daily loss dollars in the tables above are the ON amounts, not a second max-loss figure.
Paths on lucidtrading.com: LucidPro (eval), LucidFlex (eval), LucidDaily (eval + daily funded), LucidDirect (instant sim-funded), then optional LucidLive.
Shared eval ladder on Pro/Flex/Daily: profit targets $1,250 / $3,000 / $6,000 / $9,000 and MLL $1,000 / $2,000 / $3,000 / $4,500 on $25K–$150K.
LucidPro: can pass in one day; EOD; DLL $600 / $1,200 / $1,800 / $2,700 with ON/OFF toggle; funded 40% consistency, payout targets $250–$1,000, 3 days to payout.
LucidFlex: 50% eval consistency; EOD; same DLL toggle; funded no consistency %, 5 winning days at $100–$250.
LucidDaily: 50% eval consistency; checkout locks EOD vs Intraday eval (Intraday cheaper) and DLL; funded always Intraday with daily payouts and no funded consistency %.
LucidDirect: no eval; EOD; 20% consistency; 5 days to payout; MLL $1,000 / $2,000 / $3,500 / $5,000; DLL none on $25K, $1,200 / $2,100 / $3,000 on $50K–$150K (toggle).

Methods
All four homepage paths (LucidPro, LucidFlex, LucidDaily, LucidDirect) advertise a 90/10 split on funded sim accounts. LucidPro funded: size payout profit target, 40% consistency, 3 days to payout, buffer-style LucidScale DLL above the initial trail, five payouts toward live. LucidFlex funded: 5 profitable days at $100/$150/$200/$250 plus any positive cycle P&L, no funded consistency percent, scaling by open profit. LucidDaily funded: always Intraday drawdown, no funded consistency percent, daily payout requests; eval EOD vs Intraday is a checkout lock and does not carry into funded. LucidDirect: no evaluation; 20% consistency and 5 days to payout. Overnight holding is not permitted on sim accounts; hedging, high-frequency trading, and microscalping (over 50% of profit from trades held 5 seconds or less) are prohibited. News trading and automated strategies / trade copiers are permitted with trader responsibility for outcomes.
Answers built from Lucid Trading’s published terms in this catalog.
Buy evals until you acquire N funded accounts, then some of those accounts pay out. Catalog fees and splits prefill when we have them. Pass rate and funded payout rate are your assumptions, not firm-reported statistics.
Enter profit per successful funded account. We only prefill a catalog payout cap when the SKU has one.
Charts appear once eval fee, profit per funded, and profit split are set. We do not invent those numbers.

Lucid Trading is a futures-only prop firm. The lucidtrading.com path picker is four products, not one challenge: LucidPro, LucidFlex, LucidDaily, and LucidDirect. Successful sim-funded traders may progress toward LucidLive. Funded sim accounts advertise a 90/10 split. Catalog rows are Rithmic list prices from Lucid's homepage pricing config (8 Sep 2026). Public code VAULT paints 30% on Pro/Flex/Daily/Direct cards (Daily size config moved from 40% to 30% by 2026-10-07) — confirm the live percent at checkout.
The Daily Loss Limit (DLL) on Lucid's path cards is a checkout ON/OFF toggle, not another name for max loss. ON sets a smaller same-day cap ($600 / $1,200 / $1,800 / $2,700 on Pro, Flex, and Daily $25K–$150K). Hit that cap and you are done for the session if max loss is still intact — LucidDaily help calls that a soft breach (locked out until the next session, account not automatically failed). OFF removes the daily brake, so a one-day loser can go all the way to trailing max loss and fail. Direct $25K has no DLL; Direct $50K–$150K use $1,200 / $2,100 / $3,000 with the same ON/OFF. The Daily loss column on this page is the ON amount. Pick the toggle before you pay; LucidDaily locks ON/OFF (and EOD vs Intraday eval) for the life of that account.
LucidPro is the one-step eval that can pass in one day. Profit targets and max loss match Flex: $1,250 / $1,000 on $25K through $9,000 / $4,500 on $150K. Drawdown is EOD. DLL defaults to $600 / $1,200 / $1,800 / $2,700 with an official ON/OFF toggle. List fees $108 / $172 / $272 / $365. Funded Pro: payout profit targets $250 / $500 / $750 / $1,000, 40% consistency, 3 days to payout, LucidScale DLL above the initial trail (60% of peak EOD balance on listed sizes), five payouts toward live.
LucidFlex is the simpler eval: 50% evaluation consistency, EOD trail, same targets and MLL, same DLL toggle. List fees $79 / $136 / $258 / $372. Funded Flex: no consistency percent, five winning days at $100 / $150 / $200 / $250, five days to payout, and a published scaling plan by open profit.
LucidDaily is the daily-payout eval. Same targets, MLL, and 50% eval consistency. Checkout locks eval drawdown (EOD vs Intraday) and DLL on/off for the life of the account. Intraday eval is cheaper ($79 / $108 / $179 / $258) than EOD ($93 / $136 / $222 / $315; homepage pricing config re-checked 2026-10-07); this catalog lists the EOD SKU. Funded Daily is always Intraday, has no funded consistency percent, and allows daily payout requests.
Editorial summary for comparison only. Always verify rules directly with Lucid Trading.
LucidDirect skips the evaluation. List fees $329 / $515 / $700 / $836. EOD trail. 20% consistency. Five days to first payout. MLL $1,000 / $2,000 / $3,500 / $5,000. DLL none on $25K; $1,200 / $2,100 / $3,000 on $50K–$150K with the same ON/OFF toggle.
Futures traders who will pick a path on purpose — Flex for winning-day payouts without funded consistency, Pro for a one-day pass and 40% funded math, Daily for daily requests plus an intraday funded trail, or Direct if they already trade tight 20% consistency and will pay more to skip the eval.
Anyone who treats Lucid as one rulebook, overnight holders (flat by about 4:45 PM ET on sim), or Daily buyers who think an EOD eval toggle keeps EOD after they pass.
Four real products and a wide platform list versus PENDING verification, a DLL toggle that must be chosen at checkout, and Daily's funded engine staying intraday even when the eval was EOD.
Tradeify Growth/Select/Lightning, My Funded Futures Flex/Rapid/Pro, and Apex if you want a different instant-versus-eval menu.
Write the path name (Pro, Flex, Daily, or Direct), size, DLL on or off, Daily eval EOD versus Intraday, and the payout gate, then confirm VAULT at checkout.
Verification is still PENDING. Re-read the live path card the same day you pay — fees and DLL defaults move.
Based on the structured rules and product flags we track, Lucid Trading tends to fit traders who want instant funding options; traders who prefer a one-step evaluation path; futures-focused traders. Compare profit targets, max loss, and payout frequency against your strategy before paying an evaluation fee.
