Question 2

Can I trade crypto perpetuals and CME futures?

Accepted Answer

Carrick publishes both crypto-perpetual and CME-futures categories. The instruments page lists supported symbols, covered venues, CME contract months, and position caps by tier; see the rules for requirements and restrictions.

Question 3

What are the challenge fees, and when is the fee refunded?

Accepted Answer

The one-time fees are $89 for Standard, $199 for Pro, and $499 for Elite. The fee is refunded with the first withdrawal; passing alone does not trigger the refund.

How does the funded profit split increase?

Accepted Answer

The starting split is 80/20, with 80% to the trader. It rises to 85/15 after 5 cleared payouts for Standard, 3 for Pro, or 2 for Elite; the 90/10 milestone is 15, 10, or 7 cleared payouts for those tiers, respectively. Each tier’s published eligibility criteria also apply.

Question 5

What pass-rate statistics does Carrick publish?

Accepted Answer

Carrick reports rolling 30-day and 90-day results by tier. Its method counts paid challenges with verified terminal pass or fail outcomes and calculates passed divided by passed plus failed; in-progress and refunded attempts are excluded. Values are currently unavailable while the evaluation source and record completeness remain unverified.

Question 6

What does the public payout ledger show?

Accepted Answer

The public ledger shows up to 10 rows marked Paid or Cleared, with UTC payout dates, whole-dollar amounts, and masked trader references when available. Pending requests and payout destinations are not shown.
