Kunal Documents $8,000 Tradeify Payout and a Breached Select Flex Account
On Thursday, September 3, the trader @kunaltradess posted on X that he had received an $8,000 payout, while also disclosing that he breached a $50,000 Tradeify Select Flex funded account the following day.
The post pairs a $8,000 payout receipt with an unusually candid loss disclosure. Kunal wrote that yesterday brought the payout and today brought blown accounts, including one $50,000 Tradeify Select Flex funded account and remaining Lucid Live accounts. The screenshot attached to the post evidences the payout figure and the date the trader shared it publicly.
What the proof establishes is narrow and specific. It confirms a payout of $8,000 tied to Kunal's Tradeify activity as of early September, together with a self-reported breach on a Select Flex account sized at $50,000. It does not establish which instruments were traded, how long the account was active before payout, or the strategy used to generate the profit.
“One day you're celebrating a payout. The next day you're blowing accounts.”— @kunaltradess on X
For context, Tradeify runs its Select program on a flat 90/10 split from the first dollar and applies a 40% consistency rule on funded Select accounts, according to the firm. Select Flex accounts sit within that structure, and $50,000 is one of the standard sizes the firm offers alongside $25K, $100K, and $150K tiers. The firm reports it has paid out more than $200 million to date, a figure that is firm-stated rather than independently verified.
The value of this proof is less in the dollar amount and more in the framing. Payout screenshots without matching losses can distort what funded trading actually looks like. Kunal's decision to publish both sides in a single post, a received payout and a same-week breach, gives the $8,000 figure more credibility, not less, and offers a more honest picture of the volatility inside a funded book.
