Payout cycle planner

This payout cycle planner projects when each payout lands and how much you take home, from the rules that actually decide it: profit split and ladder, cycle length or on-demand, first-payout delay, minimum trading days per payout and any buffer the firm keeps in the account. It’s the honest answer to “how much will I make per month on a $100k account?”

Assumes a steady daily average and that profit above the buffer is withdrawn at each payout. Real results vary; the planner is for pacing, not promises.

How it works

Each trading day adds your average profit. A payout triggers when the cycle has elapsed, the minimum trading days are met and there is withdrawable profit above the buffer. The split comes from the ladder (e.g. 80% → 90% after two payouts → 95% after four), the balance resets to start + buffer, and the next cycle begins.

Effective split is total paid ÷ total profit across the horizon — usually a few points below the headline number because of the buffer and the ladder’s early tiers.
