Frequently Asked Questions
-
What is the 1-Step Evaluation (Pay After You Pass)?
It is a single-phase challenge where traders pay a small entry fee upfront and the remaining fee only after passing. Traders must achieve the 12% profit target without violating any rules. Upon passing, the trader receives a funded account with 70% to 95% profit split.
-
Are there any time limits to complete the Evaluation?
No. There are no maximum trading days. You may trade at your own pace, but you must trade for at least 5 days.
-
What is the profit target?
You must achieve a 12% profit target on the account balance during the evaluation.
-
What is the Max Drawdown?
6% trailing drawdown. This follows your account equity until it reaches the initial balance. Once it locks at the starting balance, it stops trailing. A breach results in immediate failure.
-
What is the Daily Drawdown?
The maximum daily loss allowed is 4% of your end-of-day balance. Exceeding this triggers an instant breach.
-
Are EAs and automated strategies allowed?
Yes, provided they do not violate prohibited strategies including HFT, arbitrage, grid/martingale, tick scalping, or copying other traders. The EA must also follow the 3-minute stop-loss and 60-second minimum hold rules.
-
Can I hold trades overnight and over the weekend?
Yes. Overnight and weekend holding is allowed during both evaluation and funded phases.
-
Is news trading allowed?
Yes — but no trades can be opened 5 minutes before or after high-impact news events.
-
Is a Stop Loss required?
Yes. Must be placed within 3 minutes of opening a trade. Two violations = soft breaches.
-
Is copy trading allowed?
Yes, from your personal account only. Copying external traders or signals is prohibited.
-
Do I get a refund of my fee?
Yes, after 3 successful payouts once funded.
-
What happens if I am inactive?
