Ready public-evidence plans are sorted ahead of partial or unavailable plans when possible, and missing public fields cannot look favorable in the ranking.
Lower-confidence ranking: partial public evidence is labeled before comparison.
This ranking uses payout access with partial model inputs. Some model inputs are visible in ordinary public material, but one or more public fields are missing or unavailable.
Informational comparison from ordinary public product/help/rule material. Missing public values stay visible as blockers instead of being treated as neutral.
Primary model note: rankings prioritize rule-derived difficulty, economic friction, constraints, and trader fit from ordinary public product/rule evidence; EV/pass probability are secondary scenario comparison estimates.
Rule-derived ranking blocked by missing public fields: buffer_clearance_required, field_evidence_ledger, funded_monthly_fee, max_payout_per_request, min_payout_amount, payout_cap_basis.

Instant funded accounts skip the evaluation phase. You pay a premium fee and begin trading a funded account immediately with real profit payouts.
Instant funded accounts cost more than evaluations; the premium pays for skipping the eval. Current instant funded prices range from $222 to $849.
If you're a proven trader who wants to skip eval delays, yes. If you're unsure about your strategy, an evaluation is cheaper and still validates your skill.
Current instant funded tiers are offered by DayTraders, Lucid Trading, Purdia Capital and Tradeify, with various rules and pricing.
