Today Upscale gets even better. We continue strengthening our infrastructure, increasing speed and usability, and removing unnecessary limitations for traders.

Performance and speed were the main focus of this update. We optimized the trading engine, made chart updates smoother, and reduced order execution latency even further.

🤏 What else?

We enabled notifications in the Base Mini App and added native position sharing directly to the Farcaster feed from the Base Mini App.

Today Upscale is no longer just another prop firm. It’s a trading environment where everything is built for results - from the first order to profit withdrawal.

💸 Withdrawal Guide: how to take profits on Upscale

You’ve passed the challenge and you’re now on a funded account - nice. Let’s break down how and when you can withdraw your profits.

⏰ When can you withdraw?

After moving to funding, a bit of time is needed for trading to settle into a stable rhythm:

• 14 days from the moment you switch to funded
• 5 profitable days (not necessarily consecutive, at a comfortable pace)
• Risk parameters respected

After those 14 days, the profitable-day counter does not reset. Profitable days keep accumulating until your first withdrawal.

💰 How much can you withdraw?

• You can withdraw profits starting from 1 USD, as long as they are not used in open positions
• Your share is 80-90% of the profit (80% is standard, +10% can be added when purchasing a challenge)

💸 Withdrawal limits

• Each account size has a per-period withdrawal limit - for example, $30K for a $200K account or $4K for a $10K account
• Made more than the limit? No problem. The remaining profit does not expire. It stays on the balance, adds a buffer against drawdown, and can be withdrawn in the next period

The full limits table is available in the documentation.

🤝 Important details

• One withdrawal request per period, even if you don’t withdraw the full amount
• After a withdrawal, the balance is reduced, but risk limits are not recalculated - you can keep trading normally
• Risk violations → account closure and profit cancellation. No exceptions.

🤝 The Upscale philosophy

Upscale is a marathon, not a sprint. Withdraw when your trading is stable - not when you’re rushing to “grab it faster”.

Upscale is built to support traders over the long run, not to push them into rushed decisions.

🔥 $399 in. Over $40K out

Sometimes it’s worth looking not at “perfect” stories, but at the ones that actually work 👇

Trader Wade Wilson (known in the Katana community and through his own Telegram channel) took a $50K challenge for $399 and withdrew profits multiple times, earning over $40K in total (100x+ on the initial cost).

He also reinvested part of that profit into new $50K and $200K accounts to scale his results even further.

You might think this was just luck. But here’s the key detail: the winrates on his two funded accounts are 47% and 29%. Yes, that means most of his trades are losers.

🫢 So how do you make money with win rates like that?

It’s simple. Wade doesn’t try to be right all the time. He accepts losses as part of the strategy and trades so that one strong winner covers multiple mistakes.

• Average profit: +$1,133
• Average loss: -$470

He cuts losing trades quickly, usually within an hour. Winning trades are held for 3+ hours.

No rushing. No panic. He gives the market time to work the idea out.

🦁 His trading style can be aggressive: he often works with maximum leverage and increases risk when current profit allows it.

And this is where the environment really matters 🤏

Upscale’s limits don’t allow a normal drawdown to turn into a critical mistake. They consistently bring the focus back to a simple idea: protecting the result is more important than revenge trading.

💡 The takeaway is simple: Upscale isn’t about being perfect or guessing the market. It’s about rules, control, and repeatability.

If you’ve been thinking about prop trading but keep postponing it 👉 a challenge is still the most honest way to test your strategy without risking your own deposit.

P.S. Want an interview with Wade Wilson? Drop some reactions under the post - if there’s enough interest, we’ll invite him to share his strategy 🤝

😱 $BTC < $65,000. Extreme fear in the market

The Fear and Greed Index is a simple sentiment indicator.
It factors in volatility, trading volumes, and trader behavior, reducing everything to a scale from 0 to 100.

Right now, the reading is 5.
That’s extreme fear.
The last time the market was at this level was in 2022, during the Terra (LUNA) collapse.

In phases like this, the market turns sharp and decisions become rushed.
Attempts to catch the bottom or time a reversal often lead to excessive risk - exactly where caution is needed most.

Over the past 24 hours, more than $2.7B has been liquidated, most of it BTC long positions.

🤲 This is exactly when prop trading becomes especially useful. It allows you to:

• risk only the cost of the account, not your entire capital
• survive sharp market moves without fatal consequences
• run multiple strategies in parallel

Put simply, prop trading is a bodyguard for your deposit.
It takes the hit when the market is running on adrenaline.

If the current situation feels unsettling, that’s normal.

What matters is trading in a way that leaves you room for mistakes and the ability to keep going.

That’s exactly what Upscale is built for.
