Commission Schedules
These commission schedules show the per-side or round-trip trading costs, including exchange-style fees, used to mimic what trading the same futures contracts would cost in a regular cash brokerage account.
DayTraders.com publishes a Rithmic per-side commission table by futures symbol. Those per-contract trading costs are stored below as commission schedules.

General Policies
Algorithm & EA Policy
News trading and DCA are allowed. Hedging across accounts is prohibited. Automated high-frequency trading (HFT) is prohibited.
DayTraders funded rules prohibit HFT and cross-account hedging while allowing DCA and discretionary news-event participation.
Copy Trading
Allowed
ProjectX supports copy trading with lead/follower accounts. While copy mode is enabled, follower accounts are managed via the lead account.
Business Entity Accounts
Allowed
Microscalping Policy
High-frequency trading is prohibited; no explicit minimum hold-time microscalping rule is published.
Bots Policy
DayTraders.com allows discretionary automation aids but prohibits high-frequency trading and similar exploitative automated activity.
DCA Policy
DayTraders.com funded rules allow DCA/averaging down.
Allowed Trading Hours
Trading reopens at 6:00 PM ET and all trades must be closed by 4:59 PM ET. Agricultural markets and holiday sessions may close earlier.
Weekend Holding Policy
Not allowed. This seems standard for futures-oriented prop firms.
Move to Live Criteria
DayTraders.com publishes a Live Account stage with separate live-account rules. Progression to live is tied to funded-account performance and risk review, but public materials do not present one single deterministic threshold that applies to every path.
Rule Enforcement Notes
Rules prohibit HFT, hedging, and martingale. DCA and news trading are allowed. Evaluation accounts use 4 QDays and 50% consistency; Pro funded payouts use 8 TDays and 30% consistency; S2F uses 10 TDays and 20% consistency.
Refund Policy
DayTraders states that once a purchase is completed and evaluation credentials are emailed, no refunds are accepted and all sales are final.
Activation Fee Policy
Pro account activation requires a one-time USD 130 fee for Pro accounts.
Reset Notes
DayTraders.com does not offer resets. If an evaluation or funded account breaches its rules, traders must start over with a new account rather than paying a reset fee.
VPN Policy
VPN policy is not explicitly published by this firm. In general, prop firms often restrict or closely monitor VPN/proxy/VPS usage because of KYC and compliance obligations, sanctions screening, fraud prevention, account-sharing detection, and risk controls tied to IP/geolocation consistency. Using location-masking tools can trigger security reviews, payout holds, or account action. Before trading with a VPN, confirm your exact setup with firm support in writing (especially when traveling or changing regions).
Payment Methods
American Express
Discover
Mastercard
Visa
Payout Methods
DayTraders payout requests are submitted through the dashboard and require a minimum request of $500. Live accounts require payout requests before 12 PM ET on Fridays, and management may approve more frequent payouts. Published funded-account rules also define payout thresholds and payout targets for Pro and S2F accounts.
