What is the leverage for all accounts?

All plans offer 1:100 leverage, regardless of account type or size.

Are Stop-Losses mandatory?

Yes. A stop-loss must be placed within 3 minutes of opening any trade. Failing to place a stop-loss will result in an account breach (2 soft breaches allowed before termination).

Is High-Frequency Trading (HFT) allowed?

HFT is allowed with restrictions. There is a minimum 60-second hold time between opening and closing any trade. Violating this timing requirement results in an account breach (2 soft breaches allowed).

How many trades can I stack on the same instrument?

Stacking is defined as: same instrument + same direction. The maximum is 2 trades. Exceeding this limit is a hard breach, applicable to both evaluation and funded accounts.

Is news trading allowed?

Yes, with restrictions. No trades may be opened or closed within 5 minutes before or after a high-impact news event on the traded instrument. Violating this rule results in a soft breach.

Can I use EAs (Expert Advisors)?

Yes. EAs are permitted provided they do not violate prohibited strategies such as HFT, arbitrage, grid/martingale, tick scalping, or copying external traders. The EA must also follow the 3-minute stop-loss rule and 60-second minimum hold time.

Can I hold trades overnight and over the weekend?

Yes. Overnight and weekend holding is permitted during both evaluation and funded phases.
