Lucid Trading Max Contract Size
The Simple Answer
Lucid Trading gives traders full max contract size from their first trade during evaluation, with no scaling restrictions at that stage. Once funded, the LucidFlex Scaling Plan raises contract limits in steps as simulated profit grows, updated at the end of each session.
Unlike many prop firms, LucidFlex has no scaling restrictions during the evaluation phase; scaling only applies once an account is funded.
How the LucidFlex Scaling Plan Works
No Scaling in Evaluation
The scaling plan controls how much of your max size is available to trade based on the simulated profits in your account, but there is no scaling plan in the evaluation phase. You have access to your full max contract size from your first trade during evaluation.
Funded-Stage Scaling
Once funded, contract limits rise with simulated profit in defined steps, updated at the end of session rather than in real time. The $25,000 tier moves from 1 mini/10 micros up to 2 minis/20 micros, its maximum for that size, once profit crosses $1,000.
Larger Account Progression
The $50,000 tier climbs from 2 minis up to 4 minis as profit crosses $1,000 and then $2,000. The $100,000 tier climbs from 3 minis up to 6 minis across three profit thresholds. The $150,000 tier has the most room to grow, climbing from 4 minis up to 10 minis as profit crosses $1,000, $2,000, $3,000, and finally $4,500.
Final Thoughts
Lucid Trading’s approach stands out for giving full position size access during evaluation with no scaling restrictions at all, reserving the LucidFlex Scaling Plan for the funded stage where it rewards accumulated simulated profit with a larger contract allowance.
