Bulenox review
100% of first $10K and 89%-off evals — but §5.6 discretion and Rithmic-only
The verdict
This Bulenox review is based on the firm's current rulebook, payout policy and reputation record as of August 2026 — scored the same way we score all 16 firms we track.
Tempting on paper — 100% of the first $10K then 90/10, ~$36 evals at 89% off, no minimum days, weekly Wednesday payouts, 11 stacked accounts. But Master Agreement §5.6 gives Bulenox written discretion to deny 'inconsistent' payouts beyond the stated 40% rule (the top complaint pattern), the $498 activation on a 150K claws back the cheap eval, and it's Rithmic-only. Pass unless you want a manual-only side account.
Trustpilot ~4.6-4.8/5 (~1,300-1,700 reviews); reliable weekly payouts for smooth-curve traders, but a documented pattern of discretionary 'flip-day' denials under §5.6
