LucidFlex traders need five qualifying profitable days before requesting a payout. The first request is limited by account size and can also change the account’s loss threshold. Prop Firm Audit records code AUDIT for 40% off Lucid Trading purchases; confirm the reduction on the order page before paying.
LucidFlex payout rules at a glance
LucidFlex is a futures program. Trading takes place in a simulated environment unless Lucid later moves a trader under a separate live arrangement. The current published structure includes a 90/10 trader-to-firm split, no payout buffer and no fixed payout window.
A qualifying day must reach the plan’s minimum daily profit:
| Account | Profit needed per qualifying day | Maximum payout per request |
|---|---|---|
| $25K | $100 | $1,000 |
| $50K | $150 | $2,000 |
| $100K | $200 | $2,500 |
| $150K | $250 | $3,000 |
Lucid states that five separate qualifying days are required. They do not have to be consecutive. A strong day does not replace a missing day because the test counts days, not total profit.
How to estimate the first payout
Use this sequence:
- Count only days that meet the account’s daily-profit threshold.
- Confirm there are at least five separate qualifying days.
- Calculate 50% of the profit balance.
- Compare that result with the account-size payout cap.
- Use the smaller amount, then account for the published 90% trader share.
Worked $50K example
Assume a $50K LucidFlex account has $3,600 in profit after five qualifying days.
- Half of profit: $3,600 × 50% = $1,800
- Account payout cap: $2,000
- Request ceiling before the split: $1,800
- Trader share at 90%: $1,620
This example is arithmetic, not a payout promise. Lucid reviews requests under its agreement, and provider processing happens after approval.
Worked $100K example
Assume a $100K account has $7,000 in profit.
- Half of profit: $3,500
- Account payout cap: $2,500
- Request ceiling before the split: $2,500
- Trader share at 90%: $2,250
The cap, rather than the 50% calculation, controls this example.
What happens to drawdown after a payout?
LucidFlex uses end-of-day trailing drawdown. Lucid publishes an initial trailing reference and a locked maximum-loss balance for each size:
| Account | Initial trailing reference | Locked loss balance |
|---|---|---|
| $25K | $26,100 | $25,100 |
| $50K | $52,100 | $50,100 |
| $100K | $103,100 | $100,100 |
| $150K | $154,600 | $150,100 |
Lucid’s help center says an approved payout automatically adjusts the maximum-loss level to the locked balance. That makes the post-payout cushion a planning issue. Before requesting the maximum, subtract the future loss threshold from the expected remaining balance.
For example, a $50K account at $53,600 that removes $1,800 would retain $51,800. Against a $50,100 locked threshold, the remaining cushion is $1,700. Fees, split treatment and the firm’s final approved amount can affect actual figures, so use the dashboard values as controlling.
Using code AUDIT
Prop Firm Audit’s current Lucid Trading record lists AUDIT for 40% off. Apply it on the Lucid order page and check the final total before completing the purchase. A coupon reduces the purchase charge; it does not change payout rules, drawdown, the split or review standards.
Read the Lucid Trading review before choosing a plan. Lucid’s official payout guide and drawdown guide control if the dashboard differs from this explanation.
Bottom line
The central LucidFlex calculation is the lower of 50% of profit or the size-based payout cap, after five qualifying days. The safer decision is not automatically the largest request: model the remaining balance against the locked loss level first, then verify code AUDIT and the 40% reduction at checkout.
