Copy Trading
Limited

Internal copying between your own AudaCity accounts is allowed. Copying from third-party accounts (other traders, other firms, signal providers) is not permitted.

Yes
News Trading
Limited

Do not open new trades or increase existing ones within 3 minutes before or after high-impact economic releases or official speeches, as this behavior may be considered excessive risk-taking.

Only high-impact FOMC events fall under this restriction; low- and medium-impact FOMC events are exempt. Other major/high-impact news restrictions remain unchanged. This update applies to existing and new accounts across Ability Challenge, Ability One and FTP Instant Funding.

No

Trading 5 minutes before and 5 minutes after the event is prohibited ( this is a soft breach and will not result in your account being breached).

Trading during this window will result in a deduction of the profit that you made on that particular trade.

Executed trades during this period that lead to a loss won't be compensated.

Executing a trade refers to initiating or closing a market order, as well as triggering any pending order, including stop-loss and take-profit instructions.

Inactivity Rule

6 months

30 days

Consistency Rule
Yes

The formula for calculation of the Consistency Score is: [1 - (most profitable trading day)/(combined profit on all profitable days)]*100:

  1. If the score is above 70 then the trader is considered as consistent.
  2. If the score lies between 50 - 70 then the risk team will manually review the account and decide whether the trader should continue trading until the score becomes above 70 or pass them.
  3. If the score is less than 50, then the trader shall continue trading the account until the score reaches above 50 and then the risk team can take a call.
