The short version
- LucidFlex
- $81 at $50K. A 40% consistency rule in the test, none after you pass. About $295 to get funded.
- LucidPro
- $120 at $50K. No consistency rule in the test, 40% once funded. About $440 to get funded.
- LucidDaily
- $66 at $50K in its intraday version. Daily payouts, but every funded account trails intraday. About $258 to get funded.
- LucidDirect
- $361 at $50K for a funded account with no test. You pay more up front and get no reset. About $900 to reach a first payout in our simulation.
- Which to buy
- Flex if your profit comes in steady days. Pro if you tend to pass in one or two big sessions. Daily if frequent payouts matter more than drawdown room. Direct only if skipping the test is worth about $605 more than Flex to you.

No consistency rule once funded
Lucid Trading LucidFlex, $50K
Lucid charges $81 for this plan with no activation fee to come later. The 40% consistency rule only applies while you are tested; once funded it is gone.
Flex suits a trader who spreads profit over several days. With a 40% rule, your best test day may bring at most $1,200 of the $3,000 target; a bigger day raises the profit you need. Once funded, each request can take 50% of your profit, up to $2,000, after 5 profit days of at least $150. The test needs at least 3 trading days.

No consistency rule in the test and earliest first payout
Lucid Trading LucidPro, $50K
Lucid charges $120 for this plan with no activation fee to come later.
Pro is built for passing fast. There is no consistency rule in the test and the minimum is one trading day, so a single strong session can clear the $3,000 target. The rule arrives after you pass. A 40% consistency rule then decides when you may withdraw, and payouts start above a buffer of $2,100 of profit. The first payout is capped at $2,000 and later ones at $2,500.

Good to know: 40% consistency rule after you pass, which can delay payouts. Each payout capped at $2,000.
Best overall, cheapest to get funded, no consistency rule once funded and earliest first payout
Lucid Trading LucidDaily, $50K
Lucid charges $66 for this plan with no activation fee to come later. The drawdown follows your open profit during the day, which is hard on traders who let winners breathe. Payouts can be requested daily once you are above the buffer.
Daily is the Lucid plan for traders who want money out often, with payouts you can request every day. Every funded Daily account trails intraday, whichever test drawdown you buy, so a winner that turns around costs room. You can only withdraw profit above a $2,100 buffer. Trading through red-folder news ends a Daily account, which the other three plans allow.

No test to pass
Lucid Trading LucidDirect, $50K
Lucid charges $361 for this plan with no activation fee to come later.
Direct skips the test. You pay once and trade a funded account from day one, with no reset if it ends. Before the first payout you need $3,000 of profit, then $2,500 before each later one. A 20% consistency rule applies to those payouts. Lucid caps Direct at 5 accounts per trader.

Which Lucid plan is cheapest to get funded?
The checkout price is what you pay once. The real cost to get funded adds the resets an average attempt needs, from 3,000 simulated runs of each plan's rules. For Direct it counts how often you would buy the account again before a first payout.

Does the Flex consistency rule make it harder to pass?
At a daily swing of 25% of the max loss, Flex passes 4 points less often than Pro in our simulation. We ran the same $50K rules 3,000 times for each swing size, from a scalper at 15% a day to a trader at 60%.
- LucidPro
- LucidFlex 40%
- LucidFlex 50%
- LucidDaily 40% intraday
Show the numbers
| LucidPro | LucidFlex 40% | LucidFlex 50% | LucidDaily 40% intraday | |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 15% a day | 27% | 25% | 26% | 26% |
| 25% a day | 30% | 26% | 28% | 26% |
| 40% a day | 32% | 25% | 28% | 23% |
| 60% a day | 33% | 21% | 27% | 17% |
At a small swing, Pro passes 2 points more often than Flex. At the largest swing the gap is 12 points. The rule only bites when one day carries a large share of your profit, which happens more when your days swing hard.
How much does each Lucid plan really cost to get funded?
Say you fail the $50K test once and pass on the second try. The table shows every fee for that case next to the average the simulation expects.
| Plan | First purchase | Each retry | Pass on try 2 | Expected attempts | Real cost |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LucidFlex With DLL, on-demand payouts, 40% consistency | $81 | $80 reset | $161 | 3.7 | $295 |
| LucidPro With DLL, on-demand payouts | $120 | $120 reset | $240 | 3.7 | $440 |
| LucidDaily Intraday eval drawdown, with DLL, on-demand payouts, 40% consistency | $66 | $65 reset | $131 | 4.0 | $258 |
| LucidDirect One version | $361 | $361, no reset | No test | 2.5 | $900 |
On Flex you pay $81, fail, pay $80 to reset and pass. That is $161 in fees, and nothing more to activate.
Pro asks $120 up front, and the same two tries come to $240. With a pass rate of 27%, the average trader needs 3.7 tries, which is why its real cost reaches $440.
Daily is the cheapest test to buy at $66. Two tries cost $131.
Direct has no second try. If the account ends, a new one costs $361 again, and our simulation expects 2.5 purchases before a trader with no edge builds $2,000 of profit.

When can you take the first payout on each Lucid plan?
All four plans pay a 90% split. They differ in how soon, how often and how much you may take out the first time.
| Plan | Split | Payouts | Minimum | First payout | First payout cap | Consistency once funded |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LucidFlex | 90% | Any day once criteria met; on-demand during session | $500 | After 5 days | $2,000 | None |
| LucidPro | 90% | Any day once criteria met; on-demand during session | $500 | After 3 days | $2,000 | 40% |
| LucidDaily | 90% | Daily; on-demand during session | $500 | After 3 days | Profit above $2,100 | None |
| LucidDirect | 90% | Any day once criteria met | $500 | After 5 days | $2,000 | 20% |
On Flex, a funded profit equal to the $3,000 test target lets you request $1,500, and at a 90% split you keep $1,350. Pro asks for $500 of profit per payout cycle. After 5 payouts, Lucid moves Flex and Pro traders to a live account. Daily moves you to live once you reach $8,000 of profit.
The payout calculator works out what you keep after the split, and the Lucid payouts page shows what we can see paid on the blockchain. For firms that pay sooner, see the fastest payout prop firms.
Which Lucid options are worth paying for?
Every $50K version Lucid sells, with what each toggle does to the price, the pass rate and the real cost. Turning the daily loss limit off also switches payouts from on-demand to end of day.
| Plan and version | Price | Pass rate | Real cost |
|---|---|---|---|
| LucidFlex With DLL, on-demand payouts, 40% consistency | $81 | 27% | $295 |
| LucidFlex With DLL, on-demand payouts, 50% consistency | $90 | 29% | $310 |
| LucidFlex No DLL, end-of-day payouts, 40% consistency | $116 | 27% | $422 |
| LucidFlex No DLL, end-of-day payouts, 50% consistency | $130 | 27% | $474 |

| LucidDaily EOD eval drawdown, no DLL, end-of-day payouts, 50% consistency | $130 | 27% | $474 |
| LucidDirect One version | $361 | 40% | $900 |
On Daily, the end-of-day test costs $85 against $66 for the intraday one, and it passes 2 points more often in our simulation. Both become intraday once funded, so the end-of-day version only helps you pass. Our trailing vs end of day guide shows why the gap grows when your trades swing.
Lucid Flex vs Pro and every other pairing
Most traders weigh two Lucid plans at a time. Each row compares the best $50K versions.
| Pairing | Cheaper to get funded | Earlier first payout | Where the rules differ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Flex vs Pro | Flex $295 | Pro after 3 days | Flex 40% / none, Pro none / 40% consistency, test / funded |
| Flex vs Daily | Daily $258 | Daily after 3 days | Flex 40% / none, Daily 40% / none consistency, test / funded |

What changes on each plan after you pass?
The test is only half of the deal. These are the rules of each plan once you hold a funded account, read from Lucid's terms.

|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| LucidFlex | No | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |
| LucidPro | Yes | No | Yes | Yes | Yes |

No Lucid plan lets you hold overnight. Bots and trade copiers are allowed on all four. The rules table sets these terms against every other firm, and the futures plans with no consistency rule list shows who drops the rule in the test entirely.
How we picked
We took every Lucid Trading plan confirmed on lucidtrading.com, 4 plans at $50K and 60 versions in all, and used the best version of each plan at each size on our ranking. The pass rate is the share of 3,000 simulated attempts by a trader with no edge that reach the target under the plan's drawdown, daily limit, consistency rule and minimum days. For Direct, which has no test, it is the share that builds one max loss of profit before the account ends. The real cost to get funded adds the checkout price and the retries an average attempt needs. Commission never counts, and Lucid pays us none.
