I generated $42,936 on a funded Alpha Trader Firm account without triggering its automated daily-loss, maximum-loss, or trader-score limits. The company acknowledged that its first automated risk report contained mistakes and agreed to conduct another review manually.

My payout was still rejected under an excessive-risk policy that I believe lacked an objective numerical threshold. The review cited rapid profit growth, concentrated position sizing, and a best trade of $17,214, even though my reported losses remained within the published 3% risk limit.

My problem is that I could follow the numerical rules and still fail a discretionary standard that could not be calculated beforehand. Traders should examine the discretionary payout clauses, not merely the dashboard limits.
