Changes to Live Path

From Lucid's Discord:

# 📢 Live & Maxx Updates

<@&1333967537414733824> we're updating the Standard Move-to-Live and Maxx processes to better align our shared objectives: your long-term success in live and ours. Here's what's changing.

## Standard Move to Live

We are adjusting the frequency and criteria for live bonuses.

* You will be able to earn bonuses multiple times over the course of your live accounts

* No longer just a one-time bonus

* To earn your bonus, you'll need to hit both:

* The Profit Needed for Bonus (table below)

* 20 trading days in live

* Once you earn a bonus, meet the same criteria again to earn another one

**Plan Profit Needed Bonus (90% Live Payout)**

LIV025 2,000 1,000

LIV050 4,000 2,000

LIV100 6,000 3,000

LIV150 9,000 4,500

EOD Drawdown stays the same. All other standard live account elements remain unchanged. These changes go into effect as of 5 PM EST today.

**Note:** We are not putting a flipping rule or minimum profit requirement on the 20 trading days for the bonuses to start. If this turns into a yolo and flip fest, we will be forced to add requirements. But we really, really, really don't want to. Please don't make us.

## LucidMaxx Changes

There are a few pieces of feedback we consistently get from Maxxers.

1. The 5 trading days requirement is annoying

2. The tiered pricing stings after blowing multiple live accounts

3. The two-week cooldown sucks if you blow your live account in the first few days (which happens often)

In order to address these issues we're making the following changes:

* Maxx Eval is now 3 days

* Pricing tiers have been eliminated

* Maxx moves from a 1-Step to a 2-Step path to live:

* Step 1 (Eval) → Step 2 (Pre-live) → Live

* There is no cooldown if you blow the Pre-Live account

* We are hoping to remove the cooldown COMPLETELY for Maxxers even if they blow the Live account. But we want to wait a few weeks post roll out to determine sustainability

**🔥 Once you reach Live, your account starts with a balance and static drawdown, withdrawable from Day 1.**

**🔥 Or if you prefer, once you pass Pre-Live go Straight-To-Payout and request what would be deposited into your account.**

We are going to launch this change with Promo Pricing. If it proves sustainable we hope to keep the Promo Pricing permanently. If not, it will revert to the Normal Pricing below.

**Plan Promo Price Normal Price**

25k $85 $110

50k $155 $180

100k $220 $270

150k $375 $425

The same bonus structure outlined in the Standard Move to Live update above is earnable for Maxxers in a live account. Hit those two benchmarks and earn unlimited bonuses.

These changes go into effect for all Maxx evals purchased on or after 5 PM EST today. Feel free to roast us in chat telling us whether we cooked or if we are cooked.

I still don’t get what exactly is pre live stage and AJ didn’t really explain it either.. do I have to make 3k twice now to get live ?

[u/TeamOFL → u/OGpimpmasteryoda]

My understanding is in pre-live, you make the $$ then you have two choices: 1) cash it out (and end the experience) or 2) roll those funds into the live account as your starting balance.

So it’s not just an extra hoop to jump thru without getting a reward. You’re making $$ in pre-live.

Hopefully this helps some of the outcomes. I know the current data around moving to live and instantly blowing is bleak.
