Quick answer: As of July 19, 2026, both $50K plans share a $3,000 profit target, $2,000 end-of-day drawdown in evaluation, and no daily loss limit. The models split from there: Lucid LucidFlex is a one-time $140 ($98 with code GORILLA) that can be passed in 2 days with no consistency rule, while Take Profit Trader is $170 per month ($102 with code GORILLA) with a 5-day minimum. Once funded, LucidFlex pays 90/10 in structured cycles (5 winning days of $150, capped at 50% of balance up to $2,000), while Take Profit Trader pays 80% (90% with PRO+) with daily withdrawals above its buffer and 6 contracts of size. Cheapest, fastest path to funded favors Lucid; payout frequency and size favor Take Profit Trader.
| Evaluation Rule | Take Profit Trader $50K | Lucid LucidFlex $50K |
|---|---|---|
| Price | $170 per month ($102 with code GORILLA) | $140 one-time ($98 with code GORILLA) |
| Activation fee | $0 | $0 |
| Profit target | $3,000 | $3,000 |
| Max drawdown | $2,000 (end-of-day) | $2,000 (end-of-day) |

Neither evaluation has a consistency rule or a daily loss limit, and both target $3,000 under a $2,000 end-of-day drawdown. The difference is time and billing: LucidFlex can be finished in 2 trading days on a one-time fee, while Take Profit Trader requires at least 5 days on a subscription that renews monthly until you pass.
For pure speed-to-funded and cost certainty, LucidFlex has the edge. Take Profit Trader compensates with 6 contracts of evaluation size versus Lucid's 4 minis.

Funded life looks very different on the two plans:
Choose Take Profit Trader $50K if payout frequency is everything: daily withdrawals above the buffer, no consistency rule anywhere, and 6 contracts of size โ worth the 80% base split and monthly billing.
Choose Lucid LucidFlex $50K if you want the cheapest, fastest route to a funded account: $98 one-time with code GORILLA, a 2-day minimum pass, an $85 reset, a 90/10 split, and end-of-day drawdown throughout.
It's structured 90/10 cycles at Lucid versus pay-me-daily flexibility at Take Profit Trader.
Lucid LucidFlex: $98 one-time with code GORILLA (list $140) versus $102 per month with code GORILLA at Take Profit Trader (list $170/month), which keeps billing until you pass. Lucid's reset is also cheaper: $85 vs $100.
In evaluation, yes โ both use a $2,000 EOD drawdown with no daily loss limit. Once funded, LucidFlex stays end-of-day while Take Profit Trader's drawdown trails intraday until the buffer is reached.
Lucid LucidFlex is the faster pass: a 2-day minimum versus 5 at Take Profit Trader, with no consistency rule on either plan. Take Profit Trader offers more size while you do it (6 contracts vs 4 minis / 40 micros).
LucidFlex keeps more per dollar at 90/10 versus Take Profit Trader's 80% (90% with PRO+). Take Profit Trader pays far more often โ daily above the buffer โ while LucidFlex pays in cycles capped at $2,000 per payout.
