Lucid Daily vs MFFU Rapid vs Take Profit Trader vs Futures Elite Nitro: Daily Payout Accounts Compared (2026)

PickMyFuturesProp · 2026-09-26

Four futures accounts that pay daily, compared at 50K: the buffer you must build first, the payout minimum, the split, the drawdown once you're funded, and what each really costs.

Lucid Daily, MFFU Rapid, Take Profit Trader and Futures Elite's new Nitro account all say "daily payouts." They're not the same deal. Each one makes you clear a different gate before the first withdrawal, runs a different drawdown once you're funded, and pays a different split. Here's how they compare on the 50K, the size most traders buy.

The four accounts at a glance (50K)

• MFFU Rapid: $209 list, $125 with code Pick, one-time. End-of-day drawdown in the evaluation, intraday trailing once funded. 50% evaluation consistency, 2-day minimum. Daily payouts above the buffer, $500 minimum, 90/10, no daily loss limit.
• MFFU Rapid EOD: same price. End-of-day drawdown in both phases. 30% evaluation consistency, 4-day minimum. Same daily payouts, $500 minimum and 90/10. Only 25K and 50K.
• Lucid Daily: one-time, from $76.60 to $119 depending on which of its four evaluation versions you pick (see below). 50% evaluation consistency, 2-day minimum, intraday trailing once funded, daily payouts above the buffer, $500 minimum, 90/10.
• Take Profit Trader: $170 a month list, and public code NOFEE40 takes 40% off and removes the activation fee. End-of-day drawdown on the Test, 50% consistency, 5-day minimum, no daily loss limit. As a funded PRO trader you get daily payouts above the buffer at 80/20 on intraday trailing drawdown; PRO+ moves you to 90/10 and back to end-of-day.
• Futures Elite Nitro: $152 list, $106.40 with code Pick, one-time. End-of-day drawdown in the evaluation, 50% evaluation consistency, 2-day minimum, no daily loss limit in either phase, and intraday trailing once funded. Payouts every 24 hours at 90/10 with a $500 minimum, capped at $2,000 per payout.

Lucid Daily's four versions

Lucid Daily isn't one price. At checkout you choose the evaluation drawdown (end-of-day or intraday) and whether to add a $1,200 daily loss limit. The target ($3,000), max loss ($2,000), consistency (50%) and everything after you're funded stay the same. On the 50K:

• End-of-day, no daily loss limit: $185 list, $119 with the checkout coupon (reset $135)
• End-of-day, with the daily loss limit: $94 (a limited-time $25 off the $119)
• Intraday, no daily loss limit: $156 list, $101.60 with the coupon (reset $115)
• Intraday, with the daily loss limit: $76.60 (the same limited-time $25 off)

The intraday versions are cheaper; the trade-off is that the floor follows your open profit during the evaluation. Adding the daily loss limit saves $25 while the promo lasts, in exchange for trading under a $1,200 daily limit. Whichever you pick, the funded account runs intraday trailing drawdown.

The real gate: the buffer

"Daily" only starts once you've built a buffer: profit above your starting balance that has to stay in the account.

• Futures Elite Nitro spells it out: on the 50K the buffer is $2,100, and your first payout needs $500 on top, so a balance of $52,600. The first payout also has to wait 24 hours after your first funded trade. After that, you only need $1 of new profit above the buffer to request again (subject to the $500 minimum). The buffer itself is never withdrawable.
• Lucid Daily sets the buffer at your max loss limit plus $100: $2,000 + $100 on the 50K. Lucid says requests are paid within 2 business days.
• MFFU Rapid and Rapid EOD pay daily "once above the buffer" with a $500 minimum. Check MFFU's plan page for the current buffer at your size.
• Take Profit Trader pays daily above the buffer once you reach PRO.

In practice, all four make you build roughly one max-loss worth of profit before the first daily payout. The difference is what happens after that.

Drawdown once you're funded

This is where the four split the most:

• MFFU Rapid EOD is the only one here that stays on end-of-day drawdown once funded. Intraday swings can't move the floor.
• MFFU Rapid and Futures Elite Nitro trail intraday, then lock at your starting balance + $100. Rapid locks after your first payout; Nitro stops trailing once the floor reaches that level.
• Lucid Daily runs intraday trailing drawdown once funded.
• Take Profit Trader PRO is intraday trailing until you move up to PRO+, which returns to end-of-day.

If you let winners run, intraday trailing is the rule that will hurt you. The EOD vs intraday drawdown explainer shows why.

Consistency and days to pass

• Rapid: 50%, at least 2 days.
• Rapid EOD: 30%, at least 4 days. On the 50K, your best day can't be more than $900 if you pass right at $3,000.
• Lucid Daily: 50%, at least 2 days.
• Futures Elite Nitro: 50%, at least 2 days.
• Take Profit Trader: 50%, at least 5 days.

MFFU, Lucid and Futures Elite all drop the consistency rule once you're funded, so your daily payouts aren't held up by one big day.

Split

MFFU, Lucid and Futures Elite Nitro pay 90/10 from the first payout (Futures Elite says Nitro stays 90/10 on its live stage too). Take Profit Trader pays 80/20 on PRO and only reaches 90/10 at PRO+.

Rules that are unique to each

• Futures Elite Nitro caps each payout at $2,000 on the 50K, and it also has a daily profit cap. On the 50K, a $6,000 day moves your account straight to live, and any profit above the cap that day is forfeited. You can hold up to 3 Nitro accounts, and big news trading is allowed only in the evaluation.
• MFFU Rapid has no resets. Hit the max loss and you buy a new account. It also doesn't allow tier-1 news trading on the funded account.
• Lucid Daily lets you set the evaluation rules yourself: end-of-day or intraday drawdown, with or without a daily loss limit, each at its own price.
• Take Profit Trader is a monthly subscription, so the cost keeps running until you pass.
