Payout Amount Locking & Account Balance Treatment
I. Amount Locking
After submitting a Payout request, the system will lock the full requested amount to prevent duplicate requests, repeated calculations, or duplicate processing.
Please note: the Payout request amount, actual received amount, and platform profit share are three different concepts.
| Concept | Description |
| System Locked Amount | Full requested amount, e.g. 1,000 USDT |
| Actual Received Amount | Calculated based on the applicable product profit share ratio |
| Platform Profit Share | Calculated according to the applicable product rules |
The amount locked is the full Payout request amount, not the final amount actually received.
II. 2-Step / 1-Step: Payout and Daily Loss
Both products use the same mechanism. The only difference is the Maximum Daily Loss parameter (2-Step: Initial Account Balance × 5%; 1-Step: Initial Account Balance × 3%).
Impact on Daily Profit Buffer
After a Funded account submits a Payout request, once the request is successfully created and the amount is locked, the system will calculate the impact of that request on the daily profit buffer:
- Payout itself is not directly treated as a trading loss in the Daily Loss calculation;
- If the requested amount includes positive profit generated on the current day, the portion of same-day profit being withdrawn can no longer be used as the daily profit buffer;
- Only positive profit generated on the current day affects the profit buffer;
- Historical profits exceeding the current day’s profit are not treated as trading losses for the day.
Calculation Method
The system calculates using the following formula:
Available Same-Day Profit = Today’s Realized Net P&L − Accumulated Removed Same-Day Profit Buffer
The minimum value is calculated as 0.
Profit Buffer Removed This Time = The smaller value between the Full Payout Request Amount and Available Same-Day Profit
The calculation uses the full Payout request amount, not the actual amount received after profit sharing.
Example
The following examples use 2-Step parameters (10,000 USDT account, 500 USDT Maximum Daily Loss Limit). For 1-Step, apply the same mechanism with its own parameters (300 USDT Maximum Daily Loss Limit). The calculation method is identical.
Assume:
- Maximum Daily Loss Limit: 500 USDT
- Today’s Realized Net Profit: 2,000 USDT
- Full Payout Request Amount: 1,500 USDT
Calculation:
- Profit Buffer Removed This Time: 1,500 USDT
- Remaining Same-Day Profit Buffer After Request: 500 USDT
- Remaining Daily Loss Buffer: 500 USDT Base Daily Loss Limit + 500 USDT Profit Buffer = 1,000 USDT
The same-day profit buffer and the Remaining Daily Loss Buffer are not the same value.
III. 2-Step / 1-Step: Payout Reversal
When a Payout request is reversed, the profit buffer is handled based on the reversal time and the actual returned amount.
Full Reversal on the Same Day
The same-day profit buffer removed by that Payout request will be restored.
The full returned amount is not recalculated as same-day profit.
Partial Reversal on the Same Day
The profit buffer is restored based on the actual returned amount. However, the restored amount cannot exceed the same-day profit buffer originally removed by that Payout request.
Reversal Across Different Days
- The previous business day’s realized net P&L or profit buffer records will not be restored;
- The system only restores account balance and equity according to the applicable rules;
- The returned amount will not be recalculated as same-day profit buffer.
Amount Still Locked
If the Payout amount remains locked or the funds have not been actually returned:
The removed same-day profit buffer continues to apply.
After 00:00 (UTC+8), the same-day profit buffer removed by Payouts is cleared along with the Daily Loss calculation records.
IV. Instant: Payout and Loss Limit Line
When submitting a Payout request for an Instant account, the following condition must be met:
Current Account Equity − Payout Request Amount > Current Loss Limit Line
If:
Current Account Equity − Payout Request Amount = Current Loss Limit Line
the Payout request cannot be submitted.
After the Payout is completed, the current Instant Loss Limit Line remains unchanged.
Example
Instant requests a 1,000 USDT Payout:
| Item | Amount |
|---|---|
| System Locked Amount (Full Payout Request Amount) | 1,000 USDT |
| Actual Received Amount (70% User Profit Share) | 700 USDT |
| Platform Profit Share | 300 USDT |
Whether a Payout request can be submitted is still subject to the Instant requirements for account equity and the current Loss Limit Line.
