Max Drawdown

Static from the starting balance, also on funded accounts; it does not rise with profits. Measured against equity, including floating P&L: touching it closes positions and the account.

  • Instant Pro: 10% Smart Drawdown. After reaching 5% profit, the loss floor locks at 5% below the milestone balance.

  • One-Step Pro: 6% static.
  • One-Step Lite: 4% static.

  • Nitro: 5% fixed throughout evaluation.
Daily Drawdown

Recalculated daily at 00:30 UTC from the closed balance at that time, excluding open positions, and monitored against equity. Requesting a payout widens that day's limit by the payout amount.

  • Instant Pro: no daily limit.
  • Instant Lite: 3%.
  • One-Step Pro: 3%.
  • One-Step Lite: 3%.
  • Two-Step Pro: 5%.

Expert Advisor (EA)
Limited

Third-party, off-the-shelf or pass-the-evaluation strategies are prohibited. Proprietary terminal only, no MetaTrader.

Limited

Self-developed bots and EAs are allowed when the trader can prove ownership of the strategy. Public or third-party bots are prohibited. Cleo does not currently support external bots, although its built-in semi-assisted tools may be used.

VPN
Limited

Allowed if it does not hide the real jurisdiction. KYC must be completed without a VPN.

No data
Hedging
Limited

Within one account, only once the open position has substantial profit or loss. Prohibited across accounts or with other traders: a first inadvertent case may get a warning; otherwise all accounts are closed.

No data
Requires Stop Loss
No
No

Recommended. During the funded stage, consistently trading without stop losses may be considered poor risk management.

Maximum Risk Limit
Limited

No per-trade risk cap. Maximum size per instrument per the symbols page, with fixed leverage.

Yes

Each trade must keep its realized loss below 3% of account equity at the time it was opened, both per partial close and cumulatively. In the funded stage, individual positions are capped at 1x account balance on Instant Pro and 2x on One-Step Pro/Two-Step Pro; cumulative exposure is capped at 2x and 3x respectively. The first position-size or exposure violation receives one five-minute correction window.

Copy Trading
No

Copying trades between users and executing third-party ideas or signals is prohibited: communities, social media, analysts or reports.

No

Copying or mirroring trades from other accounts, platforms, signal services or third parties is prohibited during both evaluation and funded stages.

News Trading
Yes
Yes

News trading is allowed. Daily and maximum drawdown limits and all other risk rules remain active during volatile events.

Consistency Rule
No
Yes

Funded stage only. The best day must account for less than 25% of total profit on Instant Pro, 15% on Instant Lite, 30% on One-Step Pro, 20% on One-Step Lite and 40% on Two-Step Pro. Exceeding the threshold delays payouts until compliance; it does not close the account.
Nitro uses a Funded Score below 20%: best day profit divided by total profit from profitable days in the payout cycle. This delays payout until compliant and never closes the account.

Hold Weekend
Yes

Overnight, weekends and holidays, with no forced close. Swap applies.

Yes

Positions may be held overnight, through weekends and for as long as the strategy requires.

Prohibited Strategies

Exploiting errors or latency, insider information, front-running, third-party or off-the-shelf strategies, switching strategy after passing, cross-account arbitrage, trades hard to replicate live (auto-deleveraging risk or extreme swings), copying others' ideas, account sharing or trading several accounts from the same household, device or IP, and hedging across accounts or traders. It leads to account closure and loss of profits.

Prohibited practices include latency or gap exploitation, external or delayed data feeds, arbitrage, manipulative HFT, group trading, account mirroring, cross-account hedging, account rolling, grid trading, manipulative tick scalping, disproportionate position sizing, unauthorized third-party account management and manipulation of Bybit API keys, balances or challenge parameters.

Scalping
No data
Limited

Tick scalping performed with manipulative intent or to exploit execution conditions is prohibited.

Inactivity Rule
No data

Deactivation after 30 days without trading. Email warning after 14 days of inactivity.
