Account Reset

You can reset your account from the stage you reached: Phase 1, Phase 2 or even a Funded Account. If you reached funded, the reset provides a new funded account at the same starting size, so you can return to trading toward your next payout without completing the evaluation again.

Resets are available through your Trader Dashboard for 7 days after an account breach.

Expert Advisor (EA)
Yes
Yes

Only self-developed EAs are permitted. The use of commercial, publicly available, or third-party-created automated trading tools is strictly prohibited.

You are allowed to use a VPN or VPS as long as it has a Static IP.

Also be aware that the IP rule restricts multiple accounts from different individuals from being accessed from the same IP address to ensure the integrity and fairness of our trading environment.

Scalping
Limited

Tick scalping (holding trades for only a few seconds to capture minimal price movements) is prohibited. Regular scalping is allowed; the previous "50% of trades > 1 minute" rule was removed for accounts purchased after March 12, 2026.

Yes
Stacking / Layering (DCA)

Martingale

No
Maximum Risk Limit
Yes

Flex 1 Step (evaluation and funded): 1% Risk Per Trade Idea from the initial account size. Positions on the same instrument count as one idea. The first automatic breach is soft and the second is hard; aggregated re-entry losses may cause direct account closure.

Other Funded Accounts purchased after March 12, 2026 (Prime excluded): 1.5% Risk Per Trade Idea. A "trade idea" includes your initial position and any positions opened in the same direction within 10 minutes of closing a losing trade. The combined loss across all positions in that window cannot exceed 1.5% of your initial account size.

Optional Add-On at checkout: Upgrade to 2% Risk Per Trade Idea for more drawdown room.

Instant Lite (accounts purchased from August 17, 2026): once the account reaches 4% in profit, a 1% maximum risk per trade applies.

No

Maximum limit of 10 lots per open position. You may open multiple positions, but each individual position cannot exceed 10 lots.

Copy Trading
Limited

Prime and Flex 1 Step: external signals and copy trading are not allowed. Other account types allow 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.

News Trading
Limited
  • Flex 1 Step: do not open or close positions within 5 minutes before or after a high-impact news event, during either evaluation or funded stages. Holding through news is allowed. Strikes carry over: the first deducts the profit, the second also reduces the profit split from 85% to 60%, and the third closes the account
  • Other accounts: do not open new trades within 2 minutes before or after a scheduled high-impact news release. You may close or manage existing trades, and take-profits, stop-losses and partial closes remain permitted
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.

Inactivity Rule

30 days

6 months

Consistency Rule
Limited

Instant Lite accounts purchased from August 17, 2026 have a 15% consistency rule. It does not apply to Flex 1 Step, Instant Elite, 1-Step, Prime or 2-Step accounts, which have no 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.
Hold Weekend
Limited

Flex 1 Step: overnight holding is allowed, but weekend holding is not allowed. Other account types allow weekend holding.

Yes
