Rules
Clear rules, zero surprises
What you read here is exactly what runs in the engine. Full detail in the Challenge Agreement.
Trading objectives
Profit target
Each step has a published profit target (e.g. 8% then 5% on the Two-Step). Hit it with all rules intact and you advance automatically.
Max daily loss
3–5% of your day-start equity depending on plan. Tracked on every tick — if equity touches the limit, the account fails immediately.
Max drawdown
5–10% depending on plan, static from initial balance or trailing from your equity high-water mark.
Minimum trading days
Most plans require 3–4 trading days per step. No maximum time limit on standard plans.
Consistency rule
Where applicable, no single day may exceed the stated share of your total profit (e.g. 40%).
Trading style
News trading
Allowed on funded swing accounts; restricted within 2 minutes of red-folder news on standard funded accounts.
Weekend holding
Allowed on swing plans. Standard plans must be flat before market close on Friday.
EAs & algos
Personal expert advisors are allowed. Copy trading between accounts, latency arbitrage, HFT and grid/martingale abuse are prohibited.
Hedging
Hedging within one account is allowed. Group hedging across accounts or firms is prohibited.
Lot limits
Per-position and total exposure caps scale with account size and are enforced by the engine at order time.
Enforcement
Tick-level engine
Every rule is evaluated on every price tick by our risk engine — the same numbers you see live in your dashboard.
Breach handling
On breach: all positions close, trading is disabled, and the account is marked failed. No discretion, no ambiguity.
Monitoring
Trade patterns, IPs and devices are analysed for prohibited strategies. Manual review precedes any final decision.
