1. Getting started
What is Level Up?
Level Up is a 10-level trading ladder. Each level has its own profit target and its own static drawdown. Hit the target and you move up. Touch the drawdown floor and the level fails, unless a checkpoint reset is available to you.
Clear all 10 levels and you earn Legend status, plus up to $34,250 in total rewards along the way.
How much does it cost?
One Level Up attempt costs $89. That gives you one run at the ladder, starting at Level 1.
How many attempts do I get?
Three. That's the lifetime maximum per person. Once they're gone, Level Up is done for your account.
Important Note: Once you take any payout from Level Up, you can no longer purchase Level Up accounts, and if you fail on Level 3 or Level 5 you can use a checkpoint reset, but that’s the only second chance you get.
What is the maximum position size I can trade?
2 minis (or 20 micros), same on every level.
Do I need to be KYC verified to buy Level Up?
Yes. KYC is required before you can complete a purchase.
Can I use a coupon or discount code?
No. Coupons don't work on Level Up purchases or checkpoint resets.
Which platform does Level Up run on?
Tradovate only.
I still have a level up v1 plan, can I buy a v2?
No, only 1 active level up plan availalbe at a time. Mixing v1 and v2 is not allowed.

9 | +$5,000 | $1,000 | $10,000 |
10 | +$6,000 | $1,000 | $15,000 + Legend status |
What are the target and drawdown on each level?
The profit target goes up as you climb, from +$1,500 on Level 1 to +$6,000 on Level 10. The static drawdown is $1,000 on every level.
Which levels pay out?
Levels 2, 4, 6, 8, 9 and 10. Levels 1, 3, 5 and 7 are Level Up only, with no cash.
What's the most I can earn?
$34,250 in total rewards across a full run (750 + 1,500 + 3,000 + 4,000 + 10,000 + 15,000), plus Legend status for finishing Level 10.
What happens to my profit when I pass a level?
It doesn't carry over. Each level starts fresh at the starting balance with its own target and drawdown.
How do I move to the next level?
Passing registers in real time. You then activate the next level from your dashboard.
Is there a time limit, minimum trading days, daily loss limit, or consistency rule?
No to all four. You do still need to place a trade at least once a week to avoid being flagged as Idle.
3. Drawdown
How does the static drawdown work?
Every level has a fixed floor set at the start of the level. Drop to or below it and the level fails right away.
Static means the floor never moves. It doesn't trail your profit upward, no matter how high your balance goes.
Does the drawdown change from level to level?
No. It's $1,000 on all 10 levels.
4. Checkpoints
What is a checkpoint?
A checkpoint lets you pay a fee and reset a level after breaching the drawdown, instead of losing your whole run.
How much do resets cost?
First checkpoint reset: $199
Second checkpoint reset: $399
When can I use a checkpoint?
You can use them at Level 3 and Level 5.
Does a checkpoint reset use up one of my 3 attempts?
No, it doesn't but once you take any payout from Level Up, you can no longer purchase Level Up accounts, and if you fail on Level 3 or Level 5 you can use a checkpoint reset, but that’s the only second chance you get.
Is there a time limit to use a reset?
You have 30 days from purchase date to use the reset.
5. Payouts
When do I become eligible for a payout?
When you pass a payout level (2, 4, 6, 8, 9 or 10), a payout request is created for that level.
Is my payout approved automatically?
No. Payout requests go through the standard review process, processed after 6:00 PM ET, and you can keep trading while one is pending.
How much do I actually receive?
payouts follow the standard 90/10 split, so you received 90% of the listed amount.
What if I fail the payout review?
Same as any other payout request: the payout is denied and the account is disabled.
6. Trading rules
Which rules still apply?
he hedging rule is still enforced on every level. It's checked at end of day, so your compliance status shows as pending while you trade. A violation breaches the account and denies pending payouts.
7. Accounts and limits
What happens if I breach and have no checkpoint available?
The run ends. You can't continue the ladder.
Can I run more than one Level Up at the same time?
No, one active run at a time.
Does Level Up count against my funded account limit?
No, it doesn't.
What happens once I've used all 3 attempts?
Level Up is permanently unavailable on your account.
