LucidFlex $100/$140/$225/$420. LucidDirect (straight-to-funded, no evaluation) $340/$520/$700/$840. Sourced from the homepage's live pricing widget config, not just help-article text.

Profit targets	50K $3K, 100K $6K, 150K $9K shown on official Select documentation.	$1.25K, $3K, $6K, $9K on LucidPro evaluation. LucidDirect is straight-to-funded with no evaluation profit target.
Drawdown	EOD drawdown; Select funded Flex uses $1K/$2K/$3K/$4.5K, Daily uses tighter $1K/$2K/$2.5K/$3.5K on larger accounts.	$1K/$2K/$3K/$4.5K Max Loss Limit on LucidPro evaluation. LucidDirect: End-of-Day Max Loss Limit $1K/$2K/$3.5K/$5K on $25K/$50K/$100K/$150K, which locks at Initial Trail Balance + $100 once each account's highest closing balance exceeds the trail.
Daily loss limit	None during Select evaluation and Flex funded policy. Daily policy adds DLL.	LucidPro DLL is none on 25K, then $1.2K/$1.8K/$2.7K on larger sizes. LucidDirect DLL: none on $25K, then a fixed $1.2K/$2.1K/$3K on $50K/$100K/$150K until the account closes above its Initial Trail Balance, after which the Fixed DLL is replaced by a LucidScale DLL equal to 60% of the highest end-of-day account profit (rises with growth, never decreases).
Consistency rule	Select evaluation has 40% consistency; Select Flex/Daily funded policies list no consistency rule.	LucidFlex payout page does not list a consistency rule; LucidPro payout path has separate consistency criteria. LucidDirect requires a 20% Consistency Percentage (largest single-day profit ÷ total account profit) to qualify for each payout; it resets after every approved payout and no longer applies once the account is promoted to live status.
Min trading days	Select evaluation requires at least 3 trading days.	LucidPro says pass in one trading day. LucidFlex payouts require 5 profitable days. LucidDirect has no evaluation and no fixed payout window — a payout can be requested any day once the profit-goal and consistency criteria are met.
Payout	90/10 split. Flex: every 5 winning days, no minimum balance required, caps up to $1.25K/$3K/$4K/$5K (25K/50K/100K/150K). Daily: eligibility once above buffer, $250 minimum payout, caps $600/$1K/$1.5K/$2.5K (or 2x cycle profit, whichever is lower); both policies require positive net profit each cycle for payouts after the first.	LucidFlex: 90/10 split, request any day after criteria, funds within 2 business days, $500 minimum, 50% of profit up to $1K/$2K/$2.5K/$3K, up to 5 payouts before live review. LucidDirect: also 90/10 split, $500 minimum request, a per-cycle profit goal ($1.5K/$3K/$6K/$9K on $25K/$50K/$100K/$150K for the first payout, lower on payouts 2+) plus the 20% consistency check, payout caps of $1K/$2K/$2.5K/$3K on payouts 1-3 rising to $1K/$2.5K/$3K/$3.5K on payouts 4-5, funds deducted within minutes of approval and disbursed within 2 business days.

Key terms

EOD (end-of-day) drawdown: Your maximum-loss line trails on your balance at the daily close, not your highest intraday equity. Open profit you give back during the day does not pull the line up against you.
Daily loss limit (DLL): A cap on how much you can lose in a single trading day — some firms call it a Daily Loss Guard. A few make it optional during the evaluation.
Consistency rule: Caps how much of your total profit can come from a single best day, so one outlier session can't carry a pass or a payout.
Activation fee: A one-time fee to turn a passed evaluation into a funded account, charged on top of the evaluation price.
Profit split: The share of payouts you keep. A 90/10 split means you keep 90% and the firm keeps 10%.
Buffer: Profit you have to build (and usually keep above) before withdrawals unlock. Firm- and plan-specific.
