Phidias Propfirm Scaling Plan
The Simple Answer
Phidias Propfirm does not use an automatic profit-tiered contract-scaling ladder. Contract limits are fixed per account model and size through both evaluation and funded stages, with growth instead available through a discretionary “Size Extension” request process on LIVE accounts.
The rule is published on the official “All Our Rules” page, including the Max Contract tables and “Size Extension” section under Phidias Wallet.
How Contract Growth Works Without Automatic Scaling
No Automatic Tiered Ladder
Phidias does not use an automatic profit-tiered contract-scaling ladder like Apex or Topstep. Contract limits are fixed per account model and size from day one through both evaluation and funded (CASH) stages, the numbers do not rise automatically as the account grows in the way Blue Guardian’s Reserve/Express Scaling System does.
Discretionary Size Extension Instead
Contract-size growth at Phidias happens through discretionary/structural mechanisms instead. On LIVE accounts, “Size Extension” allows growth: “To increase the number of authorized contracts, the trader must make a written request by email to support. The Risk Management team will evaluate the trader’s risk profile and can accept” or decline the request, making this a manual, firm-discretionary process rather than an automatic formula.
Final Thoughts
Phidias Propfirm’s discretionary Size Extension process gives the firm direct control over which traders receive increased contract limits, a meaningfully different approach from automatic profit-tier systems.
