[Futures Instant](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#futures-instant) # Futures Instant — How It Works ## Skip the Challenge and start in the Earning Phase. Account sizes, time limits, resets and how Futures Instant differs from Futures Prime. **What Is Futures Instant?** Futures Instant is an Instant Earning Account — you skip the Challenge phase entirely and go straight to the Earning Phase. There's no evaluation to pass: you purchase the account and start trading toward rewards right away. All trading takes place on demo accounts using simulated funds. **What Account Sizes Are Available?** Futures Instant is available in two account sizes: $50,000 and $100,000. Select the Futures Instant option when you start a new account in your Client Area to see both offers. | | **$50,000** | **$100,000** | | --- | --- | --- | | Profit Target | $3,000 | $6,000 | | Maximum Drawdown | $2,000 | $3,500 | | Drawdown Type | EOD, trailing to static | EOD, trailing to static | | Consistency Rule | 20% | 20% | | Daily Pause (dynamic) | $1,200 | $2,200 | | Maximum Contracts | 4 Mini / 40 Micro | 8 Mini / 80 Micro | | Profit Split | 90% | 90% | | Minimum Reward Amount | $500 | $500 | | Minimum Trading Days | 5 | 5 | | Maximum Account Allocation | 2 | 2 |   **How Is Futures Instant Different From Futures Prime?** Futures Prime starts with a Challenge you pass before reaching the Earning Phase. Futures Instant skips the Challenge, so your account is in the Earning Phase from day one. Both use the same platforms and market data options. **Is There A Time Limit?** No. Futures Instant accounts have no fixed duration. Keep the account active, though — if no trade is placed for 14 days, the account is breached under the Inactivity rule. **Is The Futures Instant Fee Refundable?** No. The Futures Instant fee is not refundable. **Do You Offer Resets For Futures Instant?** No. Resets and extensions are not available for Futures Instant. If your account is breached, you'll receive a 10% discount voucher by email, valid for 10 days, towards a new Futures Instant account of the same size. You'll also see the voucher, with a countdown, on the breached account in your Client Area. **Can I Scale Up A Futures Instant Account?** No. Scaling is not available on Futures Instant. **How Many Futures Instant Accounts Can I Have?** You can have up to 2 active Futures Instant accounts at the time. - [Getting Started](https://support.thetradingpit.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Getting Started.](https://support.thetradingpit.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#getting-started) - [The Trading Pit - Who we are](https://support.thetradingpit.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#the-trading-pit-who-we-are) - [Purchases](https://support.thetradingpit.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#purchases) - [Products](https://support.thetradingpit.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#products) - [Account Verification](https://support.thetradingpit.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#account-verification) - [Trading](https://support.thetradingpit.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#trading) - [Challenges](https://support.thetradingpit.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#challenges) - [Scaling Plan](https://support.thetradingpit.com/getting-started?hsLang=en#scaling-plan) - [Trading Rules](https://support.thetradingpit.com/trading-rules?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Basic Rules for CFD, Futures & Stocks](https://support.thetradingpit.com/trading-rules?hsLang=en#basic-rules-for-cfd-futures-stocks) - [CFD Prime](https://support.thetradingpit.com/trading-rules?hsLang=en#cfd-prime) - [CFD Instant](https://support.thetradingpit.com/trading-rules?hsLang=en#cfd-instant) - [Futures](https://support.thetradingpit.com/trading-rules?hsLang=en#futures) - [Stocks](https://support.thetradingpit.com/trading-rules?hsLang=en#stocks) - [Rewards](https://support.thetradingpit.com/rewards?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Fees](https://support.thetradingpit.com/rewards?hsLang=en#fees) - [Reward Methods](https://support.thetradingpit.com/rewards?hsLang=en#reward-methods) - [CFDs](https://support.thetradingpit.com/cfds?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Products](https://support.thetradingpit.com/cfds?hsLang=en#products) - [Trading](https://support.thetradingpit.com/cfds?hsLang=en#trading) - [Challenges](https://support.thetradingpit.com/cfds?hsLang=en#challenges) - [Platforms](https://support.thetradingpit.com/cfds?hsLang=en#platforms) - [Futures](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Futures Instant](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#futures-instant) - [Scaling Plan](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#scaling-plan) - [Challenges](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#challenges) - [Trading - Market Data](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#trading-market-data) - [Platforms](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#platforms) - [NinjaTrader](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#ninjatrader) - [Tradovate](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#tradovate) - [Quantower](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#quantower) - [ATAS](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#atas) - [Rithmic - R/Trader Pro](https://support.thetradingpit.com/futures?hsLang=en#rithmic-r-trader-pro) - [Stocks](https://support.thetradingpit.com/stocks?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Challenges](https://support.thetradingpit.com/stocks?hsLang=en#challenges) - [Affiliate Program](https://support.thetradingpit.com/affiliate-program?hsLang=en#main-content) - [Payouts](https://support.thetradingpit.com/affiliate-program?hsLang=en#payouts) - [Become an Affiliate](https://support.thetradingpit.com/affiliate-program?hsLang=en#become-an-affiliate) - [Status Updates](https://support.thetradingpit.com/status-updates?hsLang=en#main-content) - [CFD](https://support.thetradingpit.com/status-updates?hsLang=en#cfd) - [Futures](https://support.thetradingpit.com/status-updates?hsLang=en#futures)
