FAQs

Provide clear and intuitive answers to frequent questions

A proprietary trading firm (prop firm) serves as a launchpad for traders, offering them the opportunity to test their trading skills, refine strategies, and gain experience in market conditions without risking personal capital.

Prop firms provide traders with simulated trading accounts that mirror real market conditions, allowing them to execute trades and manage risk as if they were using real funds. These firms offer a structured environment where both beginner and experienced traders can improve their skills, develop consistency, and prove their profitability before transitioning to live trading.

The primary goal of a prop firm is to identify skilled traders and build a high-performing team. Instead of requiring traders to fund their own brokerage accounts—where financial losses can be severe—prop firms act as intermediaries, equipping traders with tools, capital, and market access to succeed.

Ultimately, the win-win model of a prop firm ensures that both the trader and the firm benefit: traders gain access to capital without personal risk, and the firm profits from supporting successful traders who demonstrate long-term profitability. The best traders may even transition to real trading accounts, further strengthening the collaboration between traders and the firm

Taurus is an innovative prop firm strategically designed to remain in the market for the long term and help traders refine their skills, transitioning from simulated trading to live accounts. Our objective is to build a team of talented traders who will work in partnership with Taurus in real markets, providing comprehensive support to help them achieve their goals alongside our company. 

Unlike traditional prop firms, Taurus does not charge activation fees after a challenge is successfully completed. Traders also have the flexibility to customize their trading experience by selecting premium addons at the time of challenge purchase. 

Additionally, after multiple successful withdrawals, Taurus provides traders with the opportunity to transition to a real trading account, offering an optimal environment to trade with real capital. 

  • No activation fees for PA accounts, everything is included in the challenge price. 
  • Fully customizable accounts with add-ons. 
  • Monthly fees are waived after three months of account retention.

Anyone over 18 years old who adheres to our rules and guidelines can join Taurus. Traders from restricted countries due to financial regulations may not be eligible.

Buying a Taurus account is a simple and streamlined process designed to give traders full control over their experience.
Follow these steps to get started:

Select Your Account Size

First, choose the account size that best fits your trading strategy and risk tolerance. Taurus offers three options:

  • 25K Account
  • 50K Account
  • 100K Account

Each account comes with its own risk parameters, drawdown limits, and maximum contracts.

Customize Your Account (Optional)

After selecting your account size, you have the option to personalize it with add-ons. These allow you to adjust features like drawdown type, daily loss limits, and consistency rules to better match your trading style.

If you prefer, you can skip this step and proceed with the default account configuration.

Apply a Discount Code (If Available)

If you have a coupon code, you can enter it before finalizing your purchase to apply any available discounts.

Complete Your Payment

Taurus offers secure crypto payments, allowing you to pay via:

  • Card-to-Crypto (using your debit/credit card)
  • Crypto-to-Crypto (direct wallet payment)

Once the payment is confirmed, your account will be activated, and you’ll be ready to trade!

Progress Toward a Real Trading Account

When traders purchase a Taurus Challenge, they begin with a Base Account that includes essential trading parameters designed to simulate professional trading conditions. These default settings promote proper risk management and discipline, ensuring that traders develop the necessary skills and consistency before transitioning to a Taurus Profit Account (PA). By default, Taurus Base Accounts offer strict yet fair trading conditions, providing a solid foundation for traders to hone their abilities. 
ACCOUNT SIZE PRICE TYPE OF DD (drawdown) DLL  (hard daily loss limit) TARGET MAX  CONTRACTS (MINI) CONSISTENCY
25K $239  TRAIL/$1000 $500  $1500  2 20%
50K $299  TRAIL/$2000 $1000  $3000  4 20%
100K $499  TRAIL/$3000 $2000  $6000  6 20%
After selecting a Base Account, traders have the option to customize their experience by choosing add-ons that best suit their trading style; however, they may also proceed with the default configuration without any modifications. At the conclusion of the selection process, traders can apply a coupon code, if available or during an active promotion to receive a discount that is automatically applied to the Base Account and/or the selected add-ons, depending on the promotion terms. 

There is no limit to the number of challenges a trader can purchase at Taurus. Traders are free to take multiple challenges simultaneously or sequentially, depending on their preferences. They can also take advantage of promotions to purchase challenges at discounted rates. Additionally, successfully passed evaluations do not have a time limit for activation, meaning they can remain on hold until the trader decides to activate them. However, traders should always keep in mind that the maximum number of active PA accounts allowed at any time is three. 

ACCOUNT SIZE Max Mini Contracts Max Micro Contracts
25K  2 Mini Contracts  10 Micro Contracts 
50K  4 Mini Contracts  20 Micro Contracts 
100K  6 Mini Contracts  30 Micro Contracts 
  At Taurus, every account has a maximum contract limit to ensure controlled risk management and a fair trading environment. These limits apply to both Mini and Micro contracts and are automatically enforced, traders cannot exceed them.  -The maximum contract limit is automatically set and cannot be exceeded.  -You can trade either Mini or Micro contracts, with Micro contracts being 5 times the Mini contract limit.  -If you attempt to open a position that exceeds the allowed contract size, the system will block the order automatically. 
At TAURUS, we implement a Dynamic Daily Loss system to help traders manage risk effectively while allowing flexibility as their profits grow. Unlike a fixed daily loss limit, the Dynamic Daily Loss adapts to the trader’s performance, ensuring a proportional and scalable approach to risk management.  What is Dynamic Daily Loss?  The Dynamic Daily Loss Limit is the maximum amount a trader can lose in a single trading day before reaching the risk threshold. However, instead of remaining fixed, it adjusts automatically based on the trader’s performance and  applies to both Hard Daily Loss (HDL) and Soft Daily Loss (SDL).  If a trader generates profits, the daily loss limit increases to reflect a percentage of the accumulated profit.  If the trader experiences losses, the daily loss limit adapts downward but never falls below the initial base limit set for the account.  This flexibility allows traders to scale their risk in proportion to their growth, rather than being confined by a static limit.  How is Dynamic Daily Loss Calculated?  The Dynamic Daily Loss limit applies to both Hard Daily Loss (HDL) and Soft Daily Loss (SDL) and is recalculated at the end of each trading day based on the total P&L (profit & loss) of the day. The new limit is then applied for the next trading session.  The calculation follows this simple formula:  -New Daily Loss Limit = 25% of Total Profit  -Minimum Daily Loss = Base Daily Loss   The daily loss will always be at least equal to the initial base value and will never decrease below it, ensuring traders have a minimum safety net even after losses.  Example: 50K Account with Dynamic Daily Loss 
  • Initial Daily Loss Limit: $1,000 
  • The trader reaches a total profit level of $5,000 in their account. 
  • Updated Daily Loss Limit for the Next Day: Since the daily loss limit is dynamically adjusted to 25% of the total P&L, the new limit is calculated as:  
        $1,000 (initial daily loss limit) → Adjusted to $1,250 (25% of $5,000 profit level) 
  • Result: The trader’s daily loss limit for the next day is now $1,250 instead of the default $1,000, 
providing more room for risk management. 
  • If the trader incurs losses: The daily loss limit will adjust accordingly, but it will never drop below the original $1,000 default limit, ensuring a minimum level of protection. 
Why Use Dynamic Daily Loss?  -Encourages Growth: Allows traders to scale risk as their profits increase.  -Protects Capital: Prevents excessive losses by adjusting downward only to the minimum threshold.  -Prevents Overexposure: Helps traders avoid emotional trading by keeping risk levels in check.  -Automated Updates: The Daily Loss Limit recalculates automatically at the end of each trading day based on performance. 
  • If the trader’s account balance reaches the daily loss limit, the account will be permanently deactivated immediately.

Trading commissions are small fees charged per trade to cover transaction costs. At Taurus, these commissions apply to every executed trade and are automatically deducted from your account balance. 

 

How Much Are the Trading Commissions? 

Taurus applies the following commission structure based on contract type: 

 

Contract Type

Commission Per Trade (Roundtrip)

Mini Contract

$5 per roundtrip 

Micro Contract 

$1.20 per roundtrip

What Does “Roundtrip” Mean? 

A roundtrip means both opening and closing a position. For example: 

  • If you open one Mini contract and later close it, the total commission charged will be $5. 
  • If you open one Micro contract and later close it, the total commission charged will be $1.20. 
  • Commissions are automatically deducted when a trade is executed. 
  • These costs apply to both Challenge and Taurus PA accounts 
  • The commission fee is charged per contract, meaning if you trade multiple contracts in a single order, the fee will be multiplied by the number of contracts. 
    Traders have two secure options to complete their transactions:    Card to Crypto Payment: 
  • Users can pay using their credit or debit card through our Card-to-Crypto system, which automatically converts the card payment into cryptocurrency for the transaction.
  • This method ensures a smooth transition for those who may not already own cryptocurrency. 
  • KYC Verification Required: 
  • Our payment processor may require Know Your Customer (KYC) verification for security purposes.
  • This process is quick and straightforward, requiring the user to follow the instructions provided by the payment processor.
  • If the payment processor cannot validate a user’s KYC, Taurus will not be able to proceed with the transaction, and the user will not be eligible to purchase an account.
  Crypto to Crypto Payment: 
  • Users who already own cryptocurrency can make a direct payment from their crypto wallet to Taurus.
  • This method allows for a secure and instant transfer without the need for KYC verification. 
At Taurus, we prioritize security, efficiency, and accessibility in our payment processing. To maintain a fast and seamless purchase experience, we exclusively accept payments in cryptocurrency for account purchases and add-ons.    What are the transaction fees at Taurus and how does the platform ensure full fee  transparency?  Transaction Fees: 
  • Additional transaction fees may apply, depending on the selected payment method. 
  • These fees are determined by the payment processor and network fees associated with the chosen cryptocurrency. 
Full Transparency: 
  • Before finalizing the purchase, users will see a breakdown of all applicable fees. 
  • If a trader does not agree with the total amount, they can choose not to proceed with the payment. 
  • Billing Cycle: Payments are due based on the original challenge purchase date (e.g., if purchased on February 15, the next payment is due on March 15). 
  • Manual Payment Process: 
  • Payments are not automatically deducted. 
  • Traders receive a payment reminder email with a payment link before the due date. 
  • Failure to pay on time results in account deactivation, which cannot be reversed. 
  • Monthly Fees: $85 per month per evaluation account. 
  • Exemption After 3 Months: If a trader maintains their account for more than 3 months, they are exempt from further monthly fees. These 3 months cover the entire period during which the trader operates both  the evaluation and the subsequent Profit Account  once the evaluation is passed. For example, if you begin your evaluation on March 1 and pass it on March 15, you will be charged your first subscription fee on April 1, even though you are already in your Profit Account. Your final monthly payment will be in June, as your account will   have been active for a total of 3 months.
  • Challenge Only Add-Ons: These must be selected before purchasing the challenge and cannot be added later. 
  • Challenge & PA Add-Ons: These must also be selected at the time of purchase and will remain active in both the challenge and the Taurus Profit Account (PA) upon passing.
  • PA Only Add-Ons: These are only available after passing the challenge and must be selected before PA activation. They cannot be added later.

Once payment is made, add-ons cannot be modified or added afterward. 

These options enhance the challenge but are not carried over to the PA.

What is the 20% Consistency Rule in Taurus Base Accounts and how can it be 

removed during the Challenge phase? 

  • All Base Accounts come with a 20% Consistency Rule, which means that no single trading day can contribute more than 20% of the total profits required to pass the Challenge. 
  • This ensures that traders demonstrate consistent performance rather than relying on a single highrisk trade to pass. 
  • Removing Consistency for the Challenge 
  • Traders can eliminate the Consistency Rule in the Challenge phase by selecting the Remove Consistency Rule Add-On before purchasing the Challenge.
  • This allows them to pass the Challenge in a single day if they reach the profit target. 
  • This only applies to the Challenge. 

What is the Evaluation Insurance add-on and how does it benefit my challenge 

reset? 

  • This add-on allows a challenge reset at a discounted price if the trader fails. 
  • The trader keeps all previously selected add-ons without repurchasing them. 
  • If the trader did not purchase this add-on Evaluation Insurance ($69), they can still reset their challenge, but at a higher cost of $89

 

These options apply from the evaluation phase and will remain active in the Taurus Profit Account (PA) upon passing.

EOD DrawdownConverts the drawdown to End-ofDay (EOD) mode for greater flexibility.$25 
Soft Daily Loss LimitReplaces the strict daily loss limit with a softer version. Available only for EOD DD $10

What is the Trailing Drawdown in Taurus accounts, and how can I switch to the Endof-Day (EOD) Drawdown option? 

All Taurus accounts come with a Trailing Drawdown, which is a dynamic risk management mechanism that moves in real-time based on the trader’s highest account balance. 

How the Trailing Drawdown Works? 

  • The drawdown starts at a fixed amount, depending on the size of the account. 
  • It trails the highest account balance achieved until it locks in at the initial balance (once it reaches the starting balance, it no longer moves). 
  • If the account balance drops below the drawdown level, the account will be permanently deactivated.

Switching to an EOD Drawdown 

  • Traders who prefer a more flexible drawdown system can opt for the End-of-Day (EOD) Drawdown Add-On before purchasing their Challenge. 
  • Instead of moving in real-time, the EOD Drawdown only updates at the end of the trading day, allowing for more breathing room during intraday trading.
  • If selected, this setting will remain active for both the Challenge and the Taurus Profit Account (PA) after successfully passing the Challenge. 

How can I customize my Daily Loss Limit (DLL) with add-ons, and what are the differences between disabling it and switching to a soft version? 

Customizing the DLL with Add-Ons 

  • Disabling the DLL (for Trailing Drawdown Accounts) 
  • Traders using the Trailing Drawdown can remove the Daily Loss Limit entirely by selecting the Disable Daily Loss Limit Add-On at the time of Challenge purchase.
  • Switching to a Soft Daily Loss Limit (for EOD Drawdown Accounts) 
  • The Soft Daily Loss feature is only available for accounts with the EOD Drawdown, and must be selected as an add-on before purchasing the challenge.
  • Instead of account deactivation, trading is temporarily paused until the next trading day if the soft limit is reached.
  • This gives traders the ability to continue trading the following day without losing their account. 

All traders receive free Level 1 data for CME instruments upon account activation.  

This includes: 

– Real-time bid & ask prices 

– Last traded price & volume 

– Basic market depth visibility 

If any Level 1 data is not available on a trader’s platform, they can simply contact support team to request activation for the missing markets. We ensure that all required CME Level 1 data is readily accessible to traders at no extra cost. 

For traders who require deeper market insights, Taurus offers Level 2 data (market depth data), which provides a more detailed view of market liquidity beyond the best bid/ask prices. 

  • Available directly from the User Dashboard in the Add-Ons section. 
  • Purchased on a monthly basis (1 calendar month per purchase). 
  • No automatic renewal—traders must manually repurchase Level 2 data each month if they wish to continue access. 
Important Consideration: 
  • Level 2 data subscriptions are valid for the remainder of the calendar month in which they are purchased.
  • Example: If a trader buys Level 2 data on March 15, it will expire on March 31, regardless of the purchase date. 
  • To maintain uninterrupted access, traders must repurchase at the start of each month. 

Deeper Market Insights, Access the full order book depth to make more informed trading decisions.

Taurus ensures that every trader has flexible access to the market data they need, whether they opt for free Level 1 data or premium Level 2 access.  

    • Add-ons must be carefully selected before finalizing the purchase. 
    • Traders cannot add or remove add-ons after payment, so we strongly recommend reviewing No, once a challenge and its add-ons are purchased, it is not possible to modify or change the selection. selections before checkout. 2 access.

No, all add-ons must be selected before purchasing the challenge. PA add-ons must be chosen before PA activation.

No, the reset add-on is non-refundable, even if it is not used. 

  • This add-on provides the option to reset a challenge at a discounted price in case of failure. 
  • If a trader completes the challenge successfully without needing a reset, the add-on remains unused but is still non-refundable.

Why Is There No Refund? 

  • The reset add-on is an insurance like feature, you pay for the possibility of using it, even if it is not ultimately needed. 
  • Refunds are not possible since this is part of the trader’s initial purchase decision. For this reason, traders should evaluate whether they want the reset option before purchasing their challenge.

Rollover refers to the process of switching from an expiring futures contract to the next available contract before the expiration date. In futures trading, contracts have set expiration dates, and traders must either close their positions before expiry or roll them over to continue holding a position. 

  • At Taurus, traders are responsible for monitoring contract expirations and managing their positions accordingly. 
  • Most futures contracts rollover on a monthly or quarterly basis, depending on the instrument.

Yes! Dollar-Cost Averaging (DCA) is fully allowed at Taurus with no restrictions.

✔ There are no restrictions on the number of contracts you can add (as long as you stay within your account’s contract limits).

-Traders must exceed the threshold amount (varies by account size). 

-Traders must trade for at least 8 days, and at least 5 of those days must be positive, with a minimum profit of $150 per day (These days do not need to be consecutive). If you do not achieve 5 positive trading days within the initial 8 days, you may continue trading until you accumulate 5 positive days. 

This one-time requirement ensures sufficient trading activity before a withdrawal is requested. 

Alternatively, if you have already achieved 5 positive trading days, you are permitted to use up to 2 days of flipping (placing a low-risk trade to validate a trading day) to complete the required 8 days of trading activity. 

-Consistency Rule, Traders must adhere to the 20% consistency rule (or 30% if the add-on was 

purchased) to ensure that profit accumulation is steady rather than concentrated in a few trades. 

For the first withdrawal request when traders must build both a safety net and accumulate the profit they wish to withdraw, consistency is calculated from the very first trading day, including the period during which the safety net is being established.  

– Compliance with Trading Rules, Traders must follow all Taurus trading rules to ensure proper risk management and account integrity. 

-For all withdrawals beyond the initial one, instead of the required 8 operational days, the 

requirement is reduced to 5 positive days with profits bigger than $150. 

-Continue to respect the consistency rule (20% or 30% if the add-on was selected). After the first withdrawal, since the safety net is already secured in the account, consistency is then measured over the mandatory 5 operational trading days required to request a withdrawal, or over the number of trading days needed for the trader to reach their profit target. 

-Compliance with Trading Rules, Traders must follow all Taurus trading rules to ensure proper risk management and account integrity. 

Taurus has set minimum and maximum payout limits per account size.

-Traders can make multiple payout requests per month as long as they stay within the monthly 

payout amount for each account, in other words you can make withdrawals in transactions of any amount between $500 and $2,000, $3,000, $4,000 as long as the total amount withdrawn from that account does not exceed the maximum. 

– No More Payout Limits After 4 Months, after 4 months of withdrawals of the maximum amount allowed, traders will no longer be subject to monthly payout caps and can withdraw as much as their account balance allows. 

-Each user may hold and replicate a maximum of 3 accounts.  

-Payout limits apply per account, meaning traders managing multiple accounts can withdraw more each month across their PA accounts. 

 

At Taurus, we prioritize fast, secure, and efficient payouts for our traders. To ensure smooth withdrawals, we exclusively use two trusted methods: cryptocurrency payouts through our crypto payment processor and Rise Payroll for fiat withdrawals. 

Crypto Payouts (Direct to Wallet) 

  • Traders can receive their payouts in cryptocurrency via our secure crypto payment processor. 
  • This method ensures instant processing and is available globally without the limitations of traditional banking. 
  • Users must provide a valid crypto wallet address for each payout request. 
  • Supported cryptocurrencies may vary and will be displayed at the time of the withdrawal request. Fiat Payouts via Rise Payroll 
  • For traders who prefer fiat currency, Taurus offers payouts through Rise Payroll. 
  • Rise Payroll enables direct bank transfers to supported countries and alternative payout solutions such as e-wallets or prepaid cards. 
  • Processing times for fiat payouts may vary depending on the trader’s location and chosen payout method. 

Transaction Fees: 

  • Taurus covers a portion of the payout fees, but some network or processing fees may apply. 
  • Exact fees will be displayed before confirming a payout request. 

Taurus carefully analyzes traders’ performance to determine whether a long-term collaboration is beneficial for both parties. After completing several withdrawal cycles and based on trading performance, Taurus will contact the trader to propose a transition to a real account a process reserved for the best-performing traders under a specific agreement. Taurus supports every trader in moving from simulated trading to trading with real capital under optimal conditions. In conclusion, Taurus is more than just a prop firm; with Taurus, every trader builds their own path to success, benefiting from a flexible approach and genuine opportunities to trade with real capital.

– Traders may be contacted before their 4th payout request to discuss a potential real account management agreement. 

-If a trader does not meet Taurus’ expectations for a real account, Taurus reserves the right to discontinue the collaboration. 

 

TAURUS is a business that aims to generate profits and does not operate under a model where it indefinitely pays profitable traders in a simulated environment using the company’s earnings, such a model is simply not sustainable for any prop firm in the long run. Instead, TAURUS will evaluate each trader individually to offer a win-win agreement that benefits both the trader and the firm. This agreement can be discussed between both parties, but it will be the only possible path for collaboration. Ultimately, TAURUS holds the final decision on both the conditions for transitioning to a real account and the potential discontinuation of the partnership if necessary.
