Halcyon Trader Funding: Live Brokerage Benefits
Every trader who begins with Halcyon’s simulated trading and funding evaluation system should have a clear goal in mind. Halcyon’s objective is to identify sustainable, skilled traders and transition them to Live Brokerage Accounts. A Live Brokerage Account functions similarly to a personal brokerage account but offers additional benefits and opportunities.
Daily Rewards
Traders in a Halcyon Live Brokerage Account are eligible for daily rewards.
-
For the first 30 trading days, rewards are calculated on profits above the original starting balance.
-
After 30 trading days, rewards are calculated on the entire account balance, giving traders full access to earned gains.
Swing Trading and Carrying Positions
One key advantage of a Live Brokerage Account is the ability to carry positions across sessions. Unlike simulated or day-trading accounts, positions are not automatically closed at the end of the day.
Traders can maintain profitable trades over daily or weekly trends, allowing them to maximize earning potential and execute longer-term strategies.
Margin-Based Contract Limits
Halcyon Live Brokerage Accounts operate on margin, similar to our simulated accounts. Halcyon has negotiated reduced margin rates with its FCM to allow traders flexible leverage over their live trading capital.
-
Position size is margin-based, scaling automatically with the account balance.
-
As a trader’s account grows or contracts, maximum position limits adjust accordingly.
Live Brokerage Accounts are structured to provide a professional trading experience, offering traders control, flexibility, and growth opportunities while maintaining essential risk safeguards.
