PROFESSIONAL TRACK
About Aralyx
Aralyx is structured as a proprietary trading firm, not a challenge-based funding model. The focus is verified performance, professional infrastructure, risk oversight, trader development, and progression toward live firm capital.
For the fastest response, contact Aralyx by email at support@aralyx.com or through the Trading Floor Comms server. Social channels are not monitored for support.
Aralyx offers two routes into the firm: the Assessment Track for traders building a verified record, and the Professional Track for experienced traders applying directly with a live track record. Traders also access professional infrastructure, market resources, Trading Floor Comms, risk oversight, and a pathway toward live firm capital.
Aralyx is not a funding company or challenge model. It is structured as a trading firm first, with live capital, a long-term career pathway, an institutional environment, and real professional standards.
Career, Capital & Profit Split
Yes. Aralyx operates from a physical trading floor in Dublin. Live traders may be considered for access to the Dublin floor for visits, training periods, or longer-term on-site trading, depending on performance, conduct, strategy, fit, and capacity.
Assessment Track traders who pass and go live receive an 80/20 profit split from day one. Aralyx covers applicable live trading costs for the first three months and credits your initial assessment fee back on your first profitable withdrawal.
Capital growth is based purely on performance. Your initial allocation reflects your track record and risk management, then scales aggressively with consistent profitability, disciplined risk, and scalable strategies.
Once approved for live trading, you trade firm capital under defined risk parameters, with support from a designated risk manager, pod leader, and Trading Floor Comms. Limits may scale over time based on performance, risk behaviour, and consistency
A seat is guaranteed for traders who complete the Assessment Track by meeting all defined criteria. Experienced traders entering via direct entry earn a desk position through interview and review.
Live traders typically operate as independent contractors. This is an industry-standard structure in proprietary trading and aligns compensation directly with trading performance.
Eligibility & Payment
Access to the Assessment Track is provided through a monthly subscription covering the platform, broker connectivity, track record, Newsquawk, Content Hub, performance support, and risk tools. It renews monthly until you go live. Subscriptions are non-refundable once charged and access has been provided. If a trader progresses to live trading, the initial assessment fee is credited back on their first profit withdrawal.
Yes. Prohibited trading behaviour, account manipulation, false information, failed verification, sanctions restrictions, or activity designed to bypass the rules may result in disqualification. A breach of the drawdown or daily loss limit is not a disqualification. It ends the attempt and you can reset. All activity is subject to review.
After the Assessment Track, qualifying traders complete KYC, performance review, and a risk interview. If approved, they are onboarded to live trading with defined risk parameters, account access, and oversight from the desk.
Aralyx is open to traders globally, subject to eligibility, OFAC and other sanctions restrictions, platform availability, and compliance checks. Traders can enter through the Assessment Track or apply directly through the Professional Track if they have a verified live track record.
Platform & Markets
Trading Floor Comms is Aralyx’s private communication server, giving all traders access to desk updates, market discussion, direct messaging, Newsquawk, real-time economic calendar updates, financial news streams, daily market rundowns, and Aralyx Assistant.
You can connect one account per attempt. After a breach you can reset and connect a different broker before you start again.
Aralyx uses broker synchronisation so traders can be assessed on how they actually trade, using their own platform and broker setup.
You need a supported broker or platform account with the correct permissions and market data enabled before your Assessment begins.
You trade through your own broker account and platform. Aralyx connects to it through a secure, read-only sync so your trading activity can be verified for assessment and track record purposes.
During the Assessment Track, traders may trade supported futures and CFD markets through their connected broker account. Available markets depend on the broker, platform, account permissions, and Aralyx eligibility rules. 24/7 CME crypto trading is not currently supported.
After signing up, you can connect your supported broker or trading platform through the Aralyx dashboard. Step-by-step connection guides are available in the Content Hub.
Aralyx connects to supported broker and trading platforms for broker-synchronised performance tracking, including NinjaTrader, Tradovate, Rithmic, cTrader, MetaTrader 4 and 5.
Rules & Evaluation
As many as you need. After a breach you can reset straight away at no cost, and change broker before you start again if you want to. Resets are only available after a breach, and your subscription continues as normal.
Yes. The limit is 2% of your start-of-day balance, measured on equity so open positions count, and it resets at the daily market reopen from Monday to Friday. Breaching it ends the attempt, the same as the max drawdown.
Whenever you like. Your first trade starts the clock, and there are no enrolment windows or deadlines. You need a minimum of 35 active trading days and you set the pace.
Yes, for Tradovate and NinjaTrader. Traders using Tradovate or NinjaTrader must have an active platform subscription and the required market data enabled before starting an Assessment. This applies to demo and live setups. CFD platforms do not require a separate market data subscription or CFD platform subscription.
Yes. You can hold positions over the weekend, although weekend trading itself is not supported. Anything you hold still counts towards your drawdown and daily loss limits.
No. Funded or sim-funded accounts from another firm are not permitted for the Aralyx Assessment Track.
Performance is evaluated against the core criteria: ≥20% return, ≤8% static max drawdown, ≤2% daily loss, and at least 35 active trading days. Aralyx also reviews risk behaviour, consistency, execution quality, and meaningful trading activity.
All trading must reflect a genuine attempt to engage with the market under real conditions, with clear structure in size, entry, exit, and risk. Activity designed purely to meet requirements may result in disqualification.
An active trading day is counted when a trader opens and fully closes a genuine trade in at least one product, bringing exposure back to flat. Traders need a minimum of 35 active trading days, with no deadline to complete them.
The maximum drawdown limit is 8% of your starting balance and is static. If breached at any point, including through open or unrealised losses, that attempt ends. You can reset straight away at no cost, connect a different broker if you want to, and start a new attempt.
The return target for the Assessment Track is ≥20% of your starting balance. There is no deadline to reach it, but you need at least 35 active trading days before you can pass.
