Every trader has their own way of approaching the market.
Some traders are active almost every day. Some wait for only a few strong setups each month. Some prefer to trade around news, while others avoid major events completely. Some use automation, some trade through a VPS, and some simply need more time away from the charts because of work, travel, or personal commitments.
That is why add ons can be useful.
They give traders more room to shape their account around the way they actually trade. They are not a replacement for discipline or risk management, but they can make the trading experience more flexible and practical.
Here is a simple breakdown of Mockapital’s available add ons and when each one may be useful.
1. 90% Profit Split
Mockapital’s standard profit split is 80%, which means traders keep 80% of the profits generated on their funded account.
With the 90% Profit Split add on, the trader’s share increases to 90%. This allows traders to keep more from the same trading performance.
For example, if a trader generates $10,000 in profit, the standard 80% split would give them $8,000. With the 90% Profit Split add on, they would receive $9,000.
This add on may suit traders who are confident in their strategy and want to get more value from their funded account over time.
2. News Trading and Weekend Holding
Some traders prefer to stay away from major economic events. Others build their strategy around volatility, macroeconomic data, or longer term setups.
The News Trading and Weekend Holding add on gives traders more flexibility around these situations. It allows them to trade during major economic news releases and hold positions over the weekend, where restrictions would normally apply.
Without this add on, if a trade is triggered within the restricted news window, 5 minutes before or 5 minutes after a high impact news event, it can result in the account being breached. With the add on, traders can keep the trade open and potentially benefit from the market movement.
This can be useful for news traders, swing traders, or traders who do not want to close a valid position just because the weekend is approaching.
3. Max Drawdown Boost
Risk limits are an important part of any trading account. They help traders stay controlled and avoid excessive exposure.
The Max Drawdown Boost add on increases the maximum allowable drawdown by 2%, giving traders extra breathing room during volatile market conditions.
For example, on a $100,000 account, a 10% maximum drawdown gives a $10,000 limit. With this add on, the maximum drawdown increases to 12%, giving the trader a $12,000 limit.
This does not mean traders should take more risk than necessary. It simply gives more space to manage trades when the market is moving aggressively or when a strategy needs a little more room to play out.
4. No Minimum Trading Days
Many evaluations require traders to complete a minimum number of trading days before passing, even if the profit target has already been reached.
The No Minimum Trading Days add on removes that requirement.
For example, if an evaluation has an 8% profit target and a 5 day minimum trading requirement, a trader who reaches the target on Day 2 would usually still need to continue trading until the minimum days are completed. With this add on, the trader can pass once the profit target is achieved.
This can help traders avoid taking extra trades just to meet a time based rule after they have already completed the main objective.
5. Bi Weekly Payout
The Bi Weekly Payout add on allows traders to request payouts every 14 days instead of following the standard 30 day payout cycle.
For traders who are already performing well on a funded account, a shorter payout cycle can make a big difference.
For example, if a trader generates profits during the first two weeks, they do not need to wait for the full 30 day cycle before becoming eligible to request a payout.
This can be useful for active traders who prefer faster access to their profits and a more regular payout schedule.
6. EA Enabled
Some traders prefer manual trading. Others use automated systems that follow predefined rules.
The EA Enabled add on allows traders to use Expert Advisors and automated trading systems on their account.
This may be useful for traders who already have a tested automated strategy and want their trades to be executed based on specific market conditions. For example, an EA may enter trades when a certain technical setup appears, helping the trader follow their system more consistently.
Of course, the trader is still responsible for the system being used. Any automated strategy should be tested, understood, and managed properly.
7. VPS Enabled
A VPS, or Virtual Private Server, is often used by traders who want a stable connection, remote access, or uninterrupted platform performance.
The VPS Enabled add on allows traders to use a VPS without unnecessary concerns related to IP address or location changes.
For example, a trader may usually trade from home but later connect through a VPS hosted in another location. Without this add on, the change in access location may raise security concerns. With the add on, the trader has more flexibility to use a VPS setup properly.
This can be useful for traders who rely on stable execution or live in areas where internet connectivity is not always reliable.
8. Extended Inactivity Protection
Not every trader places trades frequently. Some traders wait for very specific setups, while others may step away from the market because of work, travel, exams, or personal commitments.
The Extended Inactivity Protection add on increases the inactivity period from 30 days to 90 days.
For example, if a trader is unable to trade for more than a month, the standard inactivity rule may become an issue. With this add on, the trader has a longer window before inactivity becomes a concern.
This can be useful for low frequency traders or anyone who does not want to place unnecessary trades just to keep an account active.
Choosing the Right Add On
The right add on depends on how a trader actually trades.
A fast trader may prefer No Minimum Trading Days. A funded trader who wants quicker access to profits may choose Bi Weekly Payout. A swing trader may benefit from News Trading and Weekend Holding. A trader using automation or remote access may find EA Enabled or VPS Enabled useful. A trader who needs more breathing room may consider Max Drawdown Boost or Extended Inactivity Protection.
The goal is not to select every add on.
The goal is to choose the ones that genuinely support your trading style.
Final Thoughts
Mockapital’s add ons give traders the option to make their account more aligned with the way they trade, whether that means faster payout eligibility, extra drawdown room, news trading, weekend holding, automation, VPS access, or a longer inactivity window. Used properly, they can help traders manage their account with more flexibility, more control, and less unnecessary pressure.
