Alpha Futures Consistency Rule by Plan: Standard, Advanced, Zero (2026)
Writer
Funded Futures Family Team
Written and fact-checked by the Funded Futures Family team against the firm’s published help center. Last reviewed September 5, 2026.
Alpha Futures applies a different consistency rule to each evaluation plan: 50% on Standard, 40% on Advanced, and none on Zero. Once funded, the picture flips. Advanced Qualified accounts have no consistency rule, while Standard and Zero Qualified accounts require your largest day to stay under 40% of net profit since the last withdrawal request. Current as of September 5, 2026.
How the Alpha Futures consistency rule works
Each of the three plans pairs a different evaluation threshold with a different funded threshold. The rule never breaches an account; it only delays a pass or a withdrawal.
| Plan | Evaluation | Qualified (funded) | Max withdrawal on 50K |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standard | Largest day cannot be larger than 50% of net profit | Largest day under 40% of net profit since last withdrawal request | $3,000 |
| Advanced | Largest day cannot be larger than 40% of net profit | None | $15,000 (all sizes) |
| Zero | None | Largest day under 40% of net profit since last withdrawal request | $1,500 |
Evaluation: three thresholds
Alpha’s plan cards state it directly: Zero eval “Consistency Rule: None”, Standard eval “Consistency Rule: 50%”, Advanced eval “Consistency Rule: 40%”. The help center phrases the Standard rule as “profits from one single trading day cannot be larger than 50% of your net profits made”, and the Advanced rule the same way at 40%. Sources: How it works and the consistency rule article.
Qualified accounts: the wording tightens
On funded accounts the help center says: “There is NO Consistency Rule on Advanced Qualified Accounts.” For Zero and Standard Qualified accounts, “profits from any single trading day cannot be greater than or equal to 40% of net profits accumulated since last withdrawal request”. Note the shift from “larger than” to “greater than or equal to”: a day at exactly 40% qualifies in the evaluation and does not qualify once funded. The formula is “biggest day/total net profit (since last request)”, and the window resets between withdrawal requests. If you exceed it, “your account will NOT be breached, but you will need to continue to trade and make more profit until the rule is satisfied.”
The payout policy pairs each rule with a withdrawal cap: Standard Qualified $3,000 on 50K, $4,000 on 100K, $5,000 on 150K; Advanced Qualified $15,000 on every size; Zero Qualified $1,000 on 25K, $1,500 on 50K, $2,500 on 100K.
Alpha Futures activation fee
Our September 2026 review of Alpha’s help center and plan pages did not confirm activation fee terms for the Standard, Advanced, or Zero plans. Rather than repeat third-party figures, check the current plan cards on alpha-futures.com before buying.
Worked example on a 50K account with $3,000 profit
In a Standard evaluation, 50% of $3,000 is $1,500, so a $1,500 day is the largest allowed. In an Advanced evaluation, the ceiling is $1,200. A Zero evaluation has no ceiling. Once funded, a Standard or Zero Qualified account needs the largest day to be strictly under 40% of $3,000, so $1,199 works and $1,200 does not. An Advanced Qualified account has no ceiling.
Firms that do not have this rule
Funded Futures Family’s Premier+ plan with Fast Pass has no consistency rule on the evaluation, with 1 day to pass; funded accounts bought from September 9, 2026 carry a 40% rule. The trade-off is price and payout sizing: the 25K Fast Pass costs $114 per month intraday or $144 end-of-day, against $89 or $119 for Standard Premier+ (which keeps a 50% eval-only rule), and payouts are capped at 50% of profit per request, up to $1,000 on a 25K. All FFF plans have a 90/10 split, no activation fee, and no daily loss limit. See the Premier+ plan page and the no consistency rule roundup.
Frequently asked questions
Which Alpha Futures plan has no consistency rule?
It depends on the stage. The Zero evaluation has no consistency rule, but the Zero Qualified account carries a 40% rule once you are funded. The Advanced plan is the reverse: a 40% rule during the evaluation and none on the Advanced Qualified account. No single Alpha plan is free of the rule at both stages. For no rule while funded, Advanced is the plan to look at, and it also carries the largest withdrawal cap at $15,000.
Does the Alpha Futures consistency rule reset after a payout?
Yes, on Qualified accounts. The help center measures the rule against “net profits accumulated since last withdrawal request”, and the formula uses total net profit since the last request as its denominator. Each approved withdrawal starts a fresh window, so a large day in an earlier cycle does not follow you into the next one. This differs from firms that measure consistency over the life of the account.
What happens if I break the rule on a Qualified account?
Nothing happens to the account itself. Alpha states that “your account will NOT be breached”, and that you “will need to continue to trade and make more profit until the rule is satisfied.” In practice the withdrawal button stays unavailable until your largest day since the last request is under 40% of net profit for that window. On a 50K with a $1,500 best day, that means growing net profit past $3,750 before requesting.
