Transparency Note: I haven't personally traded LucidBlack accounts. This review is based on feedback from traders who actively use Black. For my personal experience, check out my Flex review or Direct review.
LucidBlack is Lucid Trading's plan designed for aggressive traders who want fast, frequent payouts.
The main difference from other Lucid plans? 40% consistency rule on funded accounts and no minimum profitable days requirement.
This means you can request payouts every 3 days if you're profitable. No waiting for 5 profitable days like on other plans.
According to traders I've spoken with, Black's standout feature is the payout frequency.
Here's how it works:
Compare this to Flex or other plans that require 5 profitable days before you can request a payout. With Black, if you're aggressive and profitable, you can cash out much faster.
60% consistency rule - Slightly better than Flex's 50%
But here's the thing: this doesn't really matter. Both Black and Flex take a minimum of 2 days to pass anyway.
With 60% consistency, you can make 60% of your profit on day 1, and 40% on day 2. With Flex's 50%, you split it evenly. Either way, you're passing in 2 days minimum.
So the evaluation difference is negligible.
This is where Black shines:
Black includes a "bonus payout" feature if you make a certain amount of profit.
My honest take: This is mostly a gimmick. Don't buy Black for the bonus payout. Buy it for the fast payout frequency and 40% consistency.
| Feature | Black | Flex |
|---|---|---|
| Eval Consistency | 60% | 50% |
| Funded Consistency | 40% | None |
| Minimum Profitable Days | None | 5 days |
| Payout Frequency | Every 3 days | Every ~7-10 days |
| Best For | Aggressive traders | Flexible traders |
My Take: Black is a niche plan. It's great if you're an aggressive, consistently profitable trader who wants to cash out frequently. But for most traders, Flex's zero consistency on funded accounts is more valuable than Black's fast payout potential.
✓ Black is good for you if:
✗ Stick with Flex if:
LucidBlack is excellent for aggressive traders who want fast payouts, but Flex is better for most
The Bottom Line: Black is a specialized plan. If you're an aggressive trader who consistently hits profits every few days and wants to cash out immediately, Black is perfect.
The ability to request payouts every 3 days (no minimum profitable days) is genuinely valuable if you trade that way.
But for most traders, Flex's zero consistency on funded accounts is more valuable than Black's fast payout frequency. And the evaluation advantage (60% vs 50%) doesn't matter since both take 2 days minimum to pass.
My recommendation: Choose Black if you specifically need fast, frequent payouts. Otherwise, stick with Flex.
Yes, if you're profitable. There's no minimum profitable days requirement, so as soon as you hit the payout target, you can request it.
Technically yes, but it doesn't matter. Both plans take 2 days minimum to pass. The 10% difference is negligible.
It exists, but it's mostly a gimmick. Don't buy Black for this feature. Buy it for the fast payout frequency.
Flex for most traders. Black only if you specifically need fast, frequent payouts and trade aggressively.
Absolutely. Use code VEDIC for 30% OFF. Never buy at full price.
