Payout estimator

Different firms run wildly different payout cycles. This calculator combines your current profit, the firm's split, and the cadence to project the after-split amount and the date it lands.

Firm

Your payout share

$4,000

Firm keeps $1,000 (20.00%).

Days to next payout

14

FTMO Phase 1 cadence: every 14 days.

Annualised run-rate

$104,286

Naive extrapolation — treat as ceiling.

How to use this calculator

  1. Enter your closed profit since the last payout. Only profit on closed trades counts — open P&L is excluded by every firm we support.
  2. Pick the firm. Cadence varies: FTMO is bi-weekly, The5ers is on-demand, Apex is weekly on funded, FundingPips is bi-weekly.
  3. Enter the firm split percent. Default 80% reflects most live firms in 2026; some scale up to 90% on senior tiers.
  4. Enter days since your last payout. On-demand firms ignore this. Bi-weekly / weekly firms count the days to know when you're eligible.

FAQ

Why is my payout date "eligible now"?
Either the firm runs on-demand, or you've held the position for long enough that the next cadence window has opened.
Does this account for the firm's minimum-profitable-days rule?
No — this tool is purely the payout-amount math. Profitable-days minimum is enforced separately on the per-firm page.
Why is the annualised number so high?
It naively extrapolates the current run-rate over 365 days. Real-world performance regresses to the mean; treat as an upper bound, not a forecast.
Can the firm reduce my split?
Some firms scale split up over time (consistency rewards) or down for rule violations. We model the static split you enter; check the firm's scale plan separately.
Does this work for instant-funded accounts?
Yes — the cadence value applies the same way. For instant-funded with no formal cadence, enter 0 and the tool reports eligible-now.
