Funded Account & Consistency
Is there a consistency rule?

Drawdown Rules
What is the maximum drawdown?
The maximum drawdown is 8% of the initial account balance and is static.
How does static drawdown work?
The drawdown threshold remains fixed relative to the initial account balance and does not trail upward as the account generates profits. For example, on a $100,000 account, the 8% static drawdown threshold is $92,000. Even if the account balance increases to $105,000, the threshold remains at $92,000.
Can the static drawdown threshold move?
No. The threshold remains fixed relative to the initial account balance.
What is the daily loss limit?
The daily loss limit is 4%. It is calculated using the higher of your account balance or equity at the start of the trading day. Exceeding the permitted daily loss limit results in an account breach.
News Trading
Is news trading allowed?
News trading is prohibited on 2-Step Pro accounts. Traders must not open or close trades in connection with high-impact news events.
Any violation of the news trading rules may result in a consistency score being applied at the discretion of the CK Prop Firm Risk Team following a review of the activity and circumstances. Traders are responsible for monitoring the economic calendar and complying with all applicable restrictions.
Inactivity Policy
How long can my account remain inactive?
Accounts are subject to a 28-day inactivity rule. To remain active, you must open and close at least one trade within the permitted inactivity period. Failure to complete a trade within 28 consecutive days may result in an account breach.
Lot Size Rules
What are the maximum lot size limits?

$50,000 | 20 lots |
$100,000 | 40 lots |
$200,000 | 60 lots |
$300,000 | 60 lots |
Do lot size limits apply to all open trades combined?
Yes. The maximum lot limit applies to the combined size of all open trades across instruments. You must not exceed the permitted total at any time. For example, on a $100,000 account, opening 39 lots on EURUSD and 2 lots on XAUUSD results in 41 combined lots, exceeding the 40-lot limit.

$100,000 | $103,100 |
$200,000 | $206,100 |
$300,000 | $309,100 |
Only funds above the required baseline balance are available for withdrawal, subject to applicable payout rules.
What is the payout profit split?
Approved payouts follow an 80/20 profit split. Traders receive 80% of the approved withdrawal amount, while CK Propfirm retains 20%.
How long do payouts take?
Once approved, the withdrawal is deducted from the trading balance and disbursed to the payment method within two business days.
Can I trade while a payout is pending?
Yes. However, you must treat the requested withdrawal as already deducted. Trading into the protected buffer before approval may cause rejection. Falling below the required threshold after deduction risks your account.
When do unrestricted withdrawals begin?
Unrestricted withdrawals begin after the fifth payout. All other applicable payout requirements remain in effect.
