Lucid Trading review
Traders who want soft daily limits and can pass in a single day. Rules read from Lucid Trading's own pages on 2 November 2026.
Our read of the rules
What stands out
- All daily loss limits are soft: you are restricted until the next session, not failed.
- LucidPro evaluations can pass in one day.
- Holding past the 4:45 PM ET close does not fail the account; Lucid closes it.
Watch out for
- Flex and Daily evaluations have consistency rules (40% and 50%).
- Funded Flex accounts follow a scaling plan that starts with a few contracts.
- LucidDaily lets you choose intraday or end-of-day drawdown: check which you bought.
On every Lucid Trading account
- Positions close automatically at 4:45 PM ET; holding past it does not fail the account.
- All daily loss limits pause trading until the next session.
