TopOneFutures Payout Request Requirements Overview

You made money. You're ready to withdraw. You log into your TopOneFutures dashboard, click "Request Payout," and...

"Request denied. Requirements not met."

What requirements? Why can't I withdraw?

TopOneFutures has specific eligibility criteria you must meet before requesting a payout. It's not just about hitting a profit target—there are rules around consistency, drawdown compliance, trading activity, and account status.

This guide breaks down every requirement you need to satisfy before TopOneFutures approves your payout request. I'll also cover common rejection reasons, how to check your eligibility, and tips for getting approved faster.

Let's start with the basics.

Quick heads-up: This article is based on my real experience with TopOneFutures and the info available when I published/updated this. Things change in prop trading — rules, payouts, promos, all of it.

The 5 Core Payout Requirements

Before you can request a payout from TopOneFutures, you must meet these five requirements:

All five must be met. If even one requirement is missing, your payout request will be denied.

Let's break down each one.

Requirement 1: Profit Target Met

Every TopOneFutures account has a profit target—the minimum profit you must achieve before requesting a payout.

Profit Targets by Account Type:

Full breakdown of profit targets.

Key point: This is based on realized P&L only. Open positions don't count.

If you're up $8,000 on an open NQ trade but haven't closed it yet, your dashboard will show $0 toward the profit target.

Requirement 2: Consistency Rule Compliance

TopOneFutures enforces consistency rules to prevent one-day lucky wins and encourage steady trading.

Consistency Limits by Account Type:#

What happens if you violate consistency?

• Payout request denied
• Account may be flagged for review
• In severe cases, account suspension

Full consistency rule breakdown.

Pro tip: Track your daily profit manually. Don't rely on TopOneFutures' dashboard alone—calculate your limit before trading each day.

Requirement 3: Drawdown Compliance

You must stay within your account's drawdown limits throughout the entire payout cycle.

Drawdown Rules by Account Type:

If you violate drawdown:

• Your account is stopped out
• You lose access to trading
• Payout request is denied
• You may need to reset or repurchase

Drawdown compliance is non-negotiable. Even if you hit your profit target and followed consistency rules, one drawdown breach kills your payout eligibility.

Requirement 4: No Open Positions

TopOneFutures calculates profits based on closed trades only.

You must:

• Close all open positions before requesting a payout
• Have zero contracts held overnight (unless overnight trading is allowed and you're closing before payout request)
• Ensure all P&L is realized (no pending orders or active trades)

Why This Matters:

Imagine you request a payout while holding an open position:

• You're up $7,000 on a closed NQ trade (realized)
• You're up $2,000 on an open ES trade (unrealized)
• Total balance shows $9,000 profit

What TopOneFutures sees:

• Realized P&L: $7,000
• Open position: $2,000 (doesn't count)

If your profit target is $8,000, your payout request gets denied—even though your balance shows $9,000.

Solution: Close all trades. Wait for settlement. Then request the payout.

Requirement 5: Account in Good Standing

Your account must be active and compliant with no pending issues.

Account Status Checklist:

If your account is paused, flagged, or under review, you can't request a payout—even if you meet all other requirements.

Additional Requirements for S2F Sim PRO Accounts

S2F Sim PRO accounts have unique payout requirements because they use an Equity Stability Score (ESS) system instead of a fixed profit target.

S2F PRO Payout Requirements:

1. ESS threshold met: Your ESS score must be above the minimum (typically 70–80/100)
2. Consistent trading activity: Usually 5–10 trading days minimum
3. No TIDD violations: You must stay within Trailing Intraday Drawdown limits
4. Profit distribution: Profits should be spread across multiple days (not spiky)

If your ESS score is too low, you can't request a payout—even if you have $10k in realized profit.

S2F PRO is built for grinders, not gamblers.

How to Check Your Payout Eligibility

Before requesting a payout, verify your eligibility in your TopOneFutures dashboard.

Dashboard Checklist:

1. Profit Progress: Check your percentage toward the profit target (should show 100% or higher)
2. Consistency Status: Verify no daily profit cap violations
3. Drawdown Status: Confirm you're within daily and max drawdown limits
4. Open Positions: Ensure all trades are closed (Positions tab should be empty)
5. Account Status: Look for any flags, warnings, or pending reviews

If everything shows green, you're eligible to request a payout.

Common Payout Denial Reasons

Here are the most common reasons TopOneFutures denies payout requests:

If your payout is denied, TopOneFutures will send you an email explaining why. Fix the issue and resubmit.

Payout Request Process: Step-by-Step

Once you meet all requirements, here's how to request a payout:

Step 1: Close All Positions

Make sure you have zero open trades. Check your Positions tab—it should be empty.

Step 2: Log Into Dashboard

Go to your TopOneFutures account dashboard.

Step 3: Navigate to Payouts

Click "Request Payout" or "Withdrawals" (exact wording varies by account type).

Step 4: Select Payout Amount

Enter the amount you want to withdraw. You can withdraw:

• The full profit amount (up to your cumulative payout cap)
• A partial amount (if you want to leave some profit in the account)

Step 5: Choose Payout Method

Select your payout method:

• Rise (fastest, free)
• Wire Transfer ($25–$50 fee)
• Crypto (network fees apply)

Full breakdown of payout methods.

Step 6: Submit Request

Click "Submit."

TopOneFutures will review your request. Approval typically takes 1–4 hours (or up to 24 hours during high volume).

Step 7: Receive Payout

Once approved, your payout processes based on the method you chose:

• Rise (ANYTIME): 1–4 hours
• Rise (bi-weekly cycle): Next scheduled payout date
• Wire Transfer: 3–5 business days
• Crypto: 1–24 hours

Tips for Faster Payout Approval

1. Request Payouts During Business Hours

TopOneFutures processes requests fastest between 9 AM – 5 PM ET on weekdays.

Weekend requests may take longer.

2. Close All Positions Before Submitting

Don't assume TopOneFutures will calculate your unrealized P&L. Close everything first.

3. Double-Check Consistency Compliance

Review your daily profit history before requesting. If you're close to violating consistency, wait another day.

4. Use Rise for Speed

Rise payouts are the fastest—especially if you have ANYTIME status.

5. Keep Your Account Clean

No violations, no flags, no pending reviews. Clean trading history = fast approvals.

What Happens After Your Payout is Approved?

Once TopOneFutures approves your payout:

1. Funds are deducted from your account balance
2. Your profit target resets to 0%
3. You can continue trading immediately
4. The next payout cycle begins

Your account stays active. You don't need to stop trading while waiting for the payout to process.

My Take: The Requirements Are Fair

Some traders complain about the payout requirements. "Why can't I just withdraw whenever I want?"

Here's the reality: TopOneFutures needs to verify you're actually profitable, not just lucky. The requirements filter out gamblers and reward consistent traders.

If you're trading clean—hitting targets, respecting consistency, staying within drawdown—payouts are smooth. I've requested 10+ payouts across multiple accounts, and only one got delayed (because I forgot to close an open position).

The requirements aren't arbitrary. They're designed to protect the firm and ensure only disciplined traders get paid.

Summary: TopOneFutures Payout Requirements

1. Profit target met: Hit your 6% target (or ESS threshold for S2F PRO)
2. Consistency compliance: Stay under daily profit caps (15%, 20%, or 25%)
3. Drawdown compliance: Don't violate daily or max drawdown limits
4. No open positions: Close all trades before requesting payout
5. Account in good standing: KYC approved, no violations, no pending reviews

Meet all five requirements, submit your request, and you'll get approved within 1–24 hours.
