Scaling plan

Updated this week

The Scaling Plan applies only to Funded accounts at Sirok Futures.
It defines how your maximum position size increases as your account grows.

This rule ensures that traders scale their exposure progressively as their performance improves.

1. What the Scaling Plan means

When you begin trading your Funded account, you can trade only half of your maximum authorized position size.
Once your account equity reaches a specific threshold, you unlock your full size permanently.

Even if your balance later decreases, your unlocked size remains available, it never goes back down.


2. What is EOD equity?

Because overnight trading is not allowed at Sirok Futures,
your End-of-Day (EOD) equity simply refers to your account equity at the end of the trading day,
after all positions have been closed.

It’s the total value of your account at daily close (balance + any realized P&L).

3. How the scaling works

At the start of your Funded account:

  • You can trade up to half of your total authorized size (rounded down).

  • Once your EOD equity reaches your starting balance + 50% of your drawdown,
    your full position size unlocks permanently.

After this point, the limit never changes, even if your balance later falls.


4. Scaling thresholds and position limits

Account Type

Starting Balance

Drawdown

Starting Max Size

Full Size (After Unlock)

Unlock Threshold (EOD Equity)

$50,000

$50,000

$2,000

2 minis

5 minis

$51,000

$100,000

$100,000

$3,000

5 minis

10 minis

$101,500

$150,000

$150,000

$4,500

7 minis

15 minis

$152,250

Once you reach the unlock threshold, your full trading size stays permanently available, it will not decrease even if your account equity drops later.


5. Example 1 : Unlocking the full size

You start with a $100,000 funded account and a $3,000 trailing drawdown.

  • Your initial limit is 5 minis.

  • Your unlock threshold = $100,000 + $1,500 = $101,500.

  • After a few solid trades, your EOD equity closes at $101,600.

You’ve reached the scaling level, your full size of 10 minis is now unlocked permanently.


6. Example 2 : Equity drop after unlocking

Following the same example:

  • You unlocked 10 minis at $101,600.

  • A few days later, your equity drops to $99,900.

The scaling plan doesn’t reduce your size, you still have access to 10 minis.
Once unlocked, the full size is yours for good.


7. Key point

  • The Scaling Plan applies only to Funded accounts (not Challenges).

  • You start with half size, unlock full size when your EOD equity reaches the threshold.

  • EOD equity = your account’s end-of-day value (no open positions allowed).

  • Once unlocked, your full size stays permanent.

  • Trading beyond your current limit before unlocking leads to account closure.
