Evaluation process
The FairTicks evaluation process starts when you purchase a simulated Training account.
From there, the account can progress toward PASSED, become BREACHED, become EXPIRED,
be reset or extended when eligible, or generate a Live account after passing.
Passing is not only about reaching a profit target. You must reach the required objective while respecting the account rules, completing the required trading activity, and staying inside the risk framework.
Evaluation journey at a glance
| Stage | What happens | Possible result |
|---|---|---|
| 1. Purchase | You choose an account model and account size. | A Training account is created after payment is processed. |
| 2. Training | You trade in the simulated FairTicks environment under your account rules. | The account remains ACTIVE while eligible. |
| 3. Progress check | FairTicks checks target progress, minimum trading days, and hard risk rules. | The account can become PASSED, BREACHED, or EXPIRED. |
| 4. Live generation | If the Training account passes, Live account generation can be processed. | The Training account becomes LIVE_ACCOUNT_GENERATED after Live creation. |
| 5. Live / Straight stage | You trade the Live / Straight account under Live-specific rules. | Payout eligibility can become available after all payout conditions are met. |
Simple lifecycle flow
Purchase → Training account created → ACTIVE
ACTIVE → PASSED → LIVE_ACCOUNT_GENERATED → Live / Straight account
Alternative paths: ACTIVE → BREACHED, or ACTIVE → EXPIRED.
What is a Training account?
A Training account is the simulated account you receive after purchase. It contains virtual capital and a rule configuration based on the model and size you selected.
Your Training account can include:
- Virtual capital, such as $25,000, $50,000, or $100,000.
- Profit target and, where available, an additional Target 2.
- Minimum trading days.
- Daily Loss, Max Loss, and Trailing Drawdown rules where enabled.
- Stop Loss and R-01 rules where enabled.
- Contracts allocation and max exposure.
- Training validity period.
- Reset and extension eligibility rules.
- Profit split used later for Live generation, subject to specific rules such as free reset.
When your account is created, its account rules are stored with that account. This helps ensure the account follows its own purchased configuration during its lifecycle.
Step 1 — Choose your account model
FairTicks currently uses three main paid Training models: Rapid, Classic, and Discipline / Precision. Free Trials may also be available as separate limited accounts.
| Account model | Main philosophy | Validity | Minimum trading days | Core idea |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Rapid | Speed | 15 days | 3 days | Fast, direct evaluation with no Daily Loss rule and no reset or extension. |
| Classic | Balance | 30 days | 5 days | Balanced structure with Daily Loss, Max Loss, stop-loss rules, reset and extension eligibility. |
| Discipline / Precision | Structure | 30 days | 7 days | More structured framework with stronger activity requirement and controlled progression. |
| Free Trial | Trial access | 3 days | 1 day | Limited trial version used to test the platform, with restricted lifecycle options. |
Exact values can depend on the account offer, account size, and current configuration. Always check the account details shown before purchase and inside your dashboard.
Step 2 — Trade in the simulated environment
Once your Training account is active, you can trade inside the FairTicks simulated environment. Each account follows its own account model, rules, contracts allocation, exposure limits, and risk framework.
During Training, FairTicks can track:
- Target progress.
- Minimum trading days.
- Daily Loss usage, where enabled.
- Max Loss usage.
- Trailing Drawdown distance, where enabled.
- Stop Loss and R-01 compliance, where enabled.
- Contracts and max exposure.
- Near-breach warnings.
- Consistency and Discipline Score visibility.
- NP Score and payout-related metrics where available.
FairTicks is designed to make risk visible before it becomes account failure. Your dashboard helps you understand how close you are to important account limits.
Step 3 — Meet the Training pass conditions
A Training account can move to PASSED when the required Training pass conditions are met.
The core passing logic is based on the required profit target, minimum trading days, and account eligibility.
Core pass conditions
- The required profit target must be reached.
- The minimum number of trading days must be completed.
- The account must not be breached.
- The account must still be eligible for progression.
- The account must satisfy the Training lifecycle rules shown in the dashboard.
Consistency, Discipline Score, NP Score, KYC, and payout conditions do not currently block Training pass status by themselves. They are especially important later for Live / Straight payout eligibility.
Profit target: what counts?
Training target progress is based on official FairTicks account values. Open-position profit alone is not enough to complete the evaluation.
A position must be closed and settled for its result to become realized account profit. Unrealized open PnL can move equity and risk, but it should not be treated as completed target profit until it is realized.
Account capital: $50,000
Profit target: $3,000
Current realized profit: $2,700
Open PnL: +$400
Live equity: $53,100
Even though live equity is above the target level, the account may not be considered passed until the profit is realized and the official Training conditions are satisfied.
Minimum trading days
Minimum trading days help prove that the trader did not complete the evaluation from only one isolated action. The requirement depends on the account model.
| Account type | Minimum trading days | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
| Rapid | 3 days | Fast evaluation, but still requires more than one trading day. |
| Classic | 5 days | Balanced proof of trading activity. |
| Discipline / Precision | 7 days | More structured proof of controlled activity over time. |
| Free Trial | 1 day | Limited trial activity requirement. |
Account model: Classic
Minimum trading days: 5
Trader reaches the required target on Day 3.
The account still needs the required minimum trading days before it can complete the Training pass conditions.
Target 1 and Target 2
Some FairTicks accounts can include two targets. Target 1 is the required pass target. Target 2 is an additional performance target that may unlock extra benefits when available.
| Target | Purpose | Required to pass? |
|---|---|---|
| Target 1 | Main Training pass target. | Yes. |
| Target 2 | Additional performance target that may unlock extra benefits where available. | No. It is not required for the standard Training pass. |
Target 2 does not automatically mean your Live profit split changes. Live profit split follows the source account rules, except when specific rules apply, such as the free-reset split rule.
What does not block Training pass by itself?
Some metrics are visible during Training because they help you understand your behavior and future payout readiness. However, they do not currently block Training pass status by themselves.
| Metric or condition | Visible during Training? | Blocks Training pass? | Main use |
|---|---|---|---|
| Consistency | Yes | No | Can affect Live / Straight payout eligibility. |
| Discipline Score | Yes | No | Can affect the consistency threshold for Live / Straight payout eligibility. |
| NP Score | Where available | No | Payout-related quality metric. |
| KYC | Not required for Training pass | No | Required later for payout when applicable. |
Step 4 — What happens after PASSED?
When a Training account reaches PASSED, it means the Training pass conditions have been completed.
After that, Live account generation can be processed by FairTicks.
PASSED does not always mean the Live account appears instantly.
Live generation is a separate lifecycle step that must be processed.
A typical passed-to-Live flow can include:
- The Training account reaches the required pass conditions.
- The Training account status becomes
PASSED. - FairTicks processes Live account generation.
- A linked Live / Straight account is created from the source Training account.
- The source Training account moves to
LIVE_ACCOUNT_GENERATED. - The trader continues from the linked Live / Straight account.
The same Training account cannot generate multiple Live accounts.
Once Live generation is processed, the Training account is marked as LIVE_ACCOUNT_GENERATED.
Bundles and Live generation
If your Training account belongs to a bundle, the bundle can generate only one Live account in total. Once Live generation is processed from one Training account in the bundle, the other Training accounts in the same bundle are locked.
You have three Training accounts in one bundle: Account A, Account B, and Account C.
Account B reaches PASSED and Live generation is processed from Account B.
Account B becomes the source of the Live account.
Account A and Account C are locked because the bundle has already produced its one Live account.
Live / Straight account stage
A Live / Straight account is different from a Training account. It does not have a Training expiration date and does not require a new Training profit target. It follows Live-specific rules and payout eligibility conditions.
Live / Straight payout eligibility can include conditions such as:
- Account must be in good standing.
- No open positions.
- Minimum Live / Straight days.
- Minimum trading days.
- NP Score requirement.
- Consistency requirement.
- Minimum eligible profit.
- KYC approval when required.
- Valid payout wallet.
- No pending payout request.
Passing Training creates the possibility of a Live / Straight account. Payout is only available later, from an eligible Live / Straight account, after all payout conditions are met.
What happens if the account breaches?
If the account violates a hard risk rule, it can move to BREACHED.
A breach is different from a normal losing trade. It is an account lifecycle event.
- The breach reason is recorded.
- Open positions are closed through the official breach process.
- The account status changes to
BREACHED. - Trading is disabled on that account.
- Reset may be available only if the account is eligible.
A breach is not reversed because the market later moves back in your favor. FairTicks uses the official account state at the time the breach is triggered.
What happens if the account expires?
A Training account can become EXPIRED if its validity period ends before it reaches the required progression state.
Expiration means the time window ended. It is different from a breach.
BREACHED means a hard risk rule was violated.
EXPIRED means the Training validity period ended before completion.
If open positions exist near expiration, they may be closed through the official settlement process before the account is marked expired.
Reset and extension during the evaluation
Reset and extension are lifecycle options that may be available depending on account type, status, and eligibility rules. They are not available on every account.
| Option | Purpose | What happens | Availability |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paid reset | Start a new attempt after breach. | Account state is restored for a new lifecycle. | Only if the account is eligible. |
| Free reset | Limited reset path under strict conditions. | Can restore a new attempt, but may change future Live conditions such as profit split. | Only if all free-reset conditions are met. |
| Extension | Add more time without resetting progress. | Account progress and risk state remain; only time is extended. | Only if the account is eligible. |
Rapid accounts do not have reset or extension. Free Trial accounts are also restricted and do not follow the same reset/extension lifecycle as paid Training accounts.
Common account statuses
During the evaluation lifecycle, your account can move through different statuses.
| Status | Meaning | Typical trader impact |
|---|---|---|
ACTIVE |
The account is active and can follow its normal lifecycle. | Trading may be available if no other block applies. |
COOLDOWN |
Protection pause is active near a risk limit. | Opening new exposure is blocked; closing positions remains available. |
PASSED |
Training pass conditions have been completed. | Live generation can be processed. |
LIVE_ACCOUNT_GENERATED |
The Training account has already produced its Live account. | The Training account is locked for further Live generation. |
BREACHED |
A hard risk rule was breached. | Trading is disabled; reset may be available if eligible. |
EXPIRED |
The Training validity period ended before completion. | Trading is disabled; extension may be available if eligible. |
FROZEN |
Trading is paused by FairTicks review, compliance, or operational control. | The trader cannot unfreeze the account directly. |
INACTIVE |
The account is no longer active due to inactivity or lifecycle rules. | Trading and product actions may be unavailable. |
CLOSED |
The account lifecycle has ended. | No normal trading or product actions are available. |
Example timelines
Example 1 — Rapid account passes
Day 0: Trader purchases a Rapid Training account.
Day 1: Trading begins.
Day 3: Minimum trading days completed.
Day 5: Required profit target is reached with realized account profit.
Result: The account can move to PASSED if no hard risk rule was breached and all Training conditions are met.
Example 2 — Classic account reaches target too early
Day 1: Trader starts trading a Classic account.
Day 3: Trader reaches Target 1.
Minimum trading days required: 5.
Result: The account still needs the minimum trading days requirement before it can complete the Training pass conditions.
Example 3 — Training passes but payout is not available yet
Step 1: Training account becomes PASSED.
Step 2: Live account generation is processed.
Step 3: Trader starts the Live / Straight stage.
Step 4: Payout eligibility is checked later based on Live / Straight payout rules.
Example 4 — Breach path
Day 8: Trader breaches the Daily Loss rule.
Result: Account becomes BREACHED, trading is disabled, and open positions are closed through the official breach process.
Next step: Reset may be available only if the account is eligible.
Example 5 — Expiration path
Account model: Classic.
Validity: 30 days.
Day 30: The account has not completed the required Training conditions.
Result: The account can become EXPIRED.
Next step: Extension may be available only if the account is eligible.
Common questions
“What do I need to pass Training?”
You need to reach the required profit target, complete the minimum trading days, avoid hard risk breaches, and remain eligible under your account lifecycle rules.
“Does consistency block Training pass?”
No. Consistency may be visible during Training, but it does not currently block Training pass status or Live generation by itself. It matters later for Live / Straight payout eligibility.
“Does Discipline Score block Training pass?”
No. Discipline Score does not currently block Training pass status or Live generation by itself. It helps determine the consistency threshold used later for Live / Straight payout eligibility.
“Does open PnL count toward the profit target?”
Open PnL affects live equity and risk, but it is not completed target profit until the position is closed and the result becomes realized.
“Is Target 2 required to pass?”
No. Target 1 is the required pass target. Target 2 is an additional performance target that may unlock extra benefits when available.
“Does Target 2 automatically improve my Live profit split?”
No. Live profit split follows the source account rules and specific lifecycle rules. Target 2 may unlock other benefits when available, but it does not automatically change the Live split.
“How many minimum trading days does Rapid require?”
Paid Rapid accounts require 3 minimum trading days. Free Trial accounts have their own separate trial requirement.
“Why is my account PASSED but I do not see a Live account yet?”
PASSED means the Training conditions are complete.
Live generation is a separate process and may need to be processed before the Live / Straight account appears.
“Can one Training account generate multiple Live accounts?”
No. One Training account can generate only one Live account.
After Live generation, the Training account moves to LIVE_ACCOUNT_GENERATED.
“Can a bundle generate multiple Live accounts?”
No. A bundle can generate only one Live account in total. Once Live generation is processed from one account in the bundle, the other accounts in that bundle are locked.
“Can I reset or extend any account?”
No. Reset and extension depend on the account type, status, and eligibility rules. Rapid and Free Trial accounts are restricted and do not follow the same reset/extension lifecycle as eligible paid Training accounts.
Summary
The FairTicks evaluation process is a structured lifecycle. You purchase a Training account, trade under the account rules, reach the required Training conditions, and then progress to Live generation if eligible.
Passing Training is based on the required target, minimum trading days, and hard risk compliance. Consistency, Discipline Score, NP Score, KYC, and payout checks matter especially later during Live / Straight payout eligibility.
Training pass means target plus minimum activity under the rules; Live payout requires a separate Live / Straight eligibility process.
Training pass and payout eligibility are separate steps.
First complete the Training requirements. Then, after Live generation, satisfy the Live / Straight payout conditions before requesting payout.
Unsure why your account has not passed or progressed?
Check your account status, realized profit, minimum trading days, and timeline first. If something still looks unclear, contact support with your account number and screenshots of the dashboard.
