Bulenox fees & true cost
Short answer
Bulenox costs from $50 for the entry evaluation, or about $5 with the current public discount. That sticker price is not the real cost: multiply it by your realistic pass rate, then add resets, activation and any monthly funded-account fee. On the 100k account the modelled price is $7, which breaks even at roughly $7 of gross simulated profit.

What the fee buys you
The evaluation fee on Bulenox is a one-off purchase of a simulated account plus the right to be funded if you clear the targets. It is not a deposit, it is not refundable in most cases, and it does not entitle you to anything if you breach.
- Full evaluation access on Tradovate, NinjaTrader, TradingView
- Up to 100% profit split on the funded account
- Payouts weekly, processed wednesdays, first eligible around day 7
- One-step qualification with no verification phase
What it does not cover
Every line below is a real charge traders hit after purchase. These are what turn an advertised $50 into a materially larger number over a year.
- Reset fees after a breach — trailing drawdown makes resets more likely
- Live market-data fees where your platform charges them
- Payment-processor and currency-conversion costs on withdrawals
- Any monthly funded-account fee your specific plan carries
The break-even maths
Take the 100k account as the reference. Modelled list price is $70, or about $7 with the 90% public discount applied. At a 100% split you keep $1000 of every $1,000 in simulated profit, so the offer breaks even at roughly $7 of gross profit on the funded account — before you have earned anything.
Multiply that by your realistic pass rate. If you expect to clear the evaluation one time in three, the true cost of a funded 100k account is closer to $21, and break-even moves to about $21 in gross profit. That number, not the discount percentage, is the one to compare across firms.
The offer is only good value if you can survive the drawdown mechanic. On intraday trailing drawdown, the practical buffer on a 100k account is around 4% — treat that as your maximum campaign risk, not the number you trade up to.
Price ladder across account sizes
Prop pricing scales sub-linearly with account size — roughly the square root of the size ratio — which is why the largest account is rarely the best value per dollar of buffer. The table below is our modelled ladder for Bulenox, with the 90% public discount applied to the second column.
- 25k account — list $35, discounted $4, 6% target, 4% buffer
- 50k account — list $50, discounted $5, 6% target, 4% buffer
- 100k account — list $70, discounted $7, 6% target, 4% buffer
- 150k account — list $85, discounted $9, 6% target, 4% buffer
Is Bulenox good value?
Value in this category is not the cheapest entry — it is the lowest expected cost per funded month you actually keep. A $50 evaluation on a firm with an intraday trailing drawdown and a strict consistency rule is usually more expensive over a year than a pricier evaluation on a static-drawdown firm, because you buy it three times instead of once.
Bulenox scores 76/100 on payout evidence and 74/100 on trust. Weigh the fee against those two numbers, not against a competitor's headline discount.
