Using skills

Unlocking, activating, cooldowns and how many skills you can use a day.

What is the difference between unlocking and activating?

Unlocking spends skill points once and the skill is yours for the rest of the lap. Activating is a separate step from the same card: you pick the account, the effect is applied, and the skill rests for its cooldown before you can use it again.
​

How many skills can I use in a day?

Two activations a day, shown as lights next to Activations today. Prestige IV raises it to three and Prestige VI to four. They come back at 00:00 UTC.

What is a cooldown?

The number of days a skill rests after you use it, from 7 days (Insider Discount) to 90 days (Step Up). The Cool Head skill makes every cooldown 15% shorter, including ones already running. Cooldowns keep running through a prestige.

Do some skills work without activating?

Yes. Pack Discount, Lucky Streak and Cool Head are passive: they work from the moment you unlock them and stay on.

How quickly does a change show on my account?

Rule removals apply within a few minutes and show on the account page. Drawdown Buffer moves the limit the same day. Free resets are processed within a few minutes. Upgrade Boost creates the funded account within 24 hours, and Step Up is made within one trading day. Discounts wait for you at checkout.

Are there conditions?

  • Upgrade Boost and Step Up need the account to be at least 1 USD in profit when you activate them. Accounts at breakeven or in the red are not listed.

  • Insider Discount stacks on any live promotion but cannot be combined with an affiliate discount.

  • Free and discounted resets on the Challenger path are for evaluations only. Funded resets are for funded sim accounts only. Live accounts are never reset.

  • Day Cutter, Funded Buffer and Consistency Remover apply once per account.

Do skills get stronger?

Yes. From Prestige III, one activation of Remove Daily Loss Limit, Remove Consistency Rule, Day Cutter or Day Skip covers 3 accounts, and from Prestige VI it covers 5. A ×3 or ×5 tag appears on them.

Where can I see what is working for me?

The In effect now list under the activation lights shows boosts with the time left, used skills with when they are ready again, and permanent skills marked Always on.
