News Trading
Limited

Two policies depending on the account creation date:

Accounts opened after 2026-04-27

  • News trading is allowed.
  • Profits generated within 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after a red folder (high-impact) news event or FOMC are capped at 0.5% of the starting balance per payout cycle.
  • Anything above the cap is removed without further penalty.

Accounts opened before 2026-04-27

  • Trades opened or closed within 5 minutes before or 5 minutes after a red folder news event or FOMC on funded accounts are not allowed.
  • Any profits generated during these windows are removed.
No

Trading during high-impact news is allowed, but the News Volatility Period (5 minutes before and after the release) is monitored. Trades that appear to exploit volatility or news-driven price spikes may trigger compliance review and corrective actions.

Inactivity Rule

30 days

60 days in evaluation phase, 30 days in funded phase.

Consistency Rule
Yes

Applies on funded accounts. A single trading day cannot equal or exceed a given percentage of total profits during the payout period. If it does, payouts are blocked until the ratio normalises; the account is not closed.

  • Instant Standard: 20%
  • Instant Pro: 20% for accounts purchased on or after 8 September 2026 (limited-time offer); 15% for accounts purchased before that date
  • Instant Flex: no consistency rule

  • TryAqua: 15%
  • 1 Step Pro: 25%
  • 2 Step Pro: 50%
  • 1 Step Flex: no consistency rule
  • 1 Step Standard, 2 Step Standard, 2 Step Elite, 3 Step: no specific consistency rule documented
Limited

Evaluation phases: no consistency rule, except on 100K and 200K account sizes (where the Best Day Profit Ratio cap applies). Live (funded) phase: 50% Best Day Profit Ratio cap across Core, Value and Flash. The rule does not breach the account; it only blocks phase passing or payout until the ratio falls within the cap.
