Reward review rules

TradeIQ Capital Reward and Payout Rules

This page explains when a reward request becomes eligible, how rewardable profit is calculated, which reward share applies, how cycle caps work, and what TradeIQ reviews before approving, adjusting, holding or rejecting a request.

TradeIQ Capital uses “approved reward” as the platform term. “Payout” is also used on this page because it is the common term traders use when searching for reward-request rules.

Rules at a glance

  • 80% starting reward share
  • 14 calendar days to first request
  • 7-day subsequent cycles
  • 45% consistency maximum
  • 0.5% safety reserve
  • ₹1,000 minimum request

First and subsequent request timing

First reward request

  • 14 calendar days from the first funded-stage trade.
  • At least 5 valid active trading days.
  • At least 2% closed net profit relative to the funded-stage starting balance.

Subsequent reward requests

  • 7 calendar days after the previous approved reward.
  • At least 4 new valid active trading days.
  • At least 1% new closed net profit above the post-reward cycle baseline.

A valid active day contains at least one compliant closed trade that satisfies the applicable minimum holding-time rule. No minimum daily profit is required.

Reward-share progression

Reward-share progression
Approved reward numberTrader reward share
Approved rewards 1-280%
Approved rewards 3-585%
Approved reward 6 onward90%

The reward share increases after repeated approved cycles. Skipping a cycle does not reset progression. Progression resets only if the funded-stage account is closed or replaced under the published account rules.

Closed-profit thresholds

First reward requests require at least 2% closed net profit relative to the funded-stage starting balance.

Subsequent reward requests require at least 1% new closed net profit above the post-reward cycle baseline.

Only closed net profit counts. Open or unrealised P&L, previously rewarded profit, reversed trades, invalid trades and activity outside the approved cycle are excluded.

Consistency formula and examples

Largest winning day ÷ closed net cycle profit ≤ 45%

If the consistency percentage is above 45%, the account is not failed and the reward request is not rejected. The trader may continue trading until additional closed profit reduces the ratio to 45% or below.

Safety-reserve calculation

A 0.5% account safety reserve must remain in virtual equity after every approved reward.

Safety reserve by starting virtual balance
Starting virtual balanceRequired safety reserve
₹2,00,000₹1,000
₹5,00,000₹2,500
₹10,00,000₹5,000
₹15,00,000₹7,500

The safety reserve is not a fee and is not deducted by TradeIQ Capital. It remains in the virtual account and is not included in the current reward request. An approved reward adjustment must not create a drawdown breach by itself.

Rewardable-profit formula

Closed net cycle profit − required safety-reserve shortfall
rewardable profit
Rewardable profit × current reward-share percentage

Approved reward
the lowest of requested amount, calculated trader reward, applicable cycle cap

For the first cycle, the funded-stage starting balance is the reward baseline. After an approved reward, the post-reward virtual balance becomes the baseline for the next cycle. Previously rewarded profit cannot be rewarded again.

Cycle caps by virtual balance

Maximum approved reward per cycle
Approved reward numberMaximum approved reward per cycle
Approved rewards 1-21.5% of starting virtual balance
Approved rewards 3-52.0% of starting virtual balance
Approved reward 6 onward2.5% of starting virtual balance
Cycle cap examples by starting balance
Starting balanceRewards 1-2Rewards 3-5Reward 6 onward
₹2L₹3,000₹4,000₹5,000
₹5L₹7,500₹10,000₹12,500
₹10L₹15,000₹20,000₹25,000
₹15L₹22,500₹30,000₹37,500

The cap applies to the trader’s approved reward before statutory deductions. Profit above the current cycle cap is not forfeited. It remains in virtual equity and may be considered in a later cycle, subject to the applicable baseline, reserve, eligibility rules and future cycle cap.

Minimum and partial requests

The minimum reward request is ₹1,000 before statutory deductions.

An eligible trader may request any amount between ₹1,000 and the lower of the calculated trader reward or the applicable cycle cap.

Evaluation-fee rebate

  • 50% of the eligible base evaluation fee actually paid is added to the first approved reward.
  • The remaining 50% is added to the third approved reward.

The rebate applies to the base evaluation fee actually paid, excluding taxes, payment-gateway charges and optional add-ons. A fee rebate is earned only through the required approved reward cycles and is not guaranteed at enrolment.

Request snapshot and account pause

All positions must be closed before a reward request is submitted. Once submitted, the funded-stage account is temporarily paused while the request is reviewed. Trading resumes after the review decision and any approved balance adjustment are completed.

Review statuses

Not eligible yet

The cycle is still active. The trader may continue trading without account failure.

Reasons

  • Cycle timer incomplete.
  • Minimum active days incomplete.
  • Minimum closed-profit threshold incomplete.
  • Consistency above 45%.
  • Safety reserve incomplete.
  • Request below ₹1,000.
  • Open trades remain.

Under review

A valid request has been submitted and the account is being checked for rule, KYC, payment and integrity compliance.

Approved

The requested amount has been approved, subject to any applicable statutory deduction.

Adjusted

The approved amount differs from the requested amount because of the available rewardable profit, cycle cap, selected partial amount or statutory deduction. The calculation must be shown.

Rejected

The request has been rejected because of a confirmed breach, identity or payment failure, or prohibited conduct. The decision must identify the relevant reason category.

Not eligible versus rejected

The cycle is still active. The trader may continue trading without account failure.

Rejection is reserved for confirmed rule breaches, verification failures, payment failures or prohibited conduct.

Rejection reasons

  • Confirmed daily, overall or applicable trade-level risk breach.
  • Unsupported instrument, segment or contract violation.
  • Account sharing.
  • Duplicate-account abuse.
  • Coordinated or prohibited trade copying.
  • Manipulated trade records.
  • Latency, price-feed or technical exploitation.
  • Prohibited automation.
  • False or incomplete KYC.
  • Payment-owner mismatch.
  • Fraudulent payment or chargeback.
  • Other conduct expressly prohibited by the published Fraud and Integrity Policy.

Review and payment timing

Published timing

  • Standard review target: 1-2 business days.
  • Standard review maximum: 5 business days.
  • Extended integrity review: up to 10 business days, with a visible reason and status update.
  • Approved payment target: within 2 business days after approval.

Approved rewards are sent through the payment methods supported by TradeIQ Capital to a verified account held by the eligible user.

Taxes and statutory deductions

Applicable statutory deductions may be made before payment. The deduction and net payment amount must be shown in the approval calculation. TradeIQ Capital will provide applicable payment or tax documentation where legally required.

Appeal process

Rule-change protection

Reward rules cannot be changed retroactively for an active reward cycle. Material changes may apply only to a future cycle or new funded-stage account after clear notice.

Cycle-cap example

On a ₹5L account, a first-cycle cap is ₹7,500. If the calculated trader reward is ₹9,000, the maximum approved reward for that cycle is ₹7,500 before statutory deductions.

Partial-request example

If the calculated trader reward is ₹6,000 and the cap is ₹7,500, the trader may request ₹3,000, ₹6,000, or any eligible amount from ₹1,000 to ₹6,000.

Consistency above 45%

If the largest winning day is ₹5,000 and closed net cycle profit is ₹10,000, consistency is 50%. The request is not eligible yet; the account is not failed for that reason.
