Swap Free
Limited

Holding beyond rollover incurs swaps; expiring futures CFDs carry no swap. Triple swap: Wednesday for forex and metals; Friday for indices, energies, treasuries and equities.

Yes

Optional at purchase for all Forex accounts; pricing is listed under Add-ons.

Account Reset

No active reset offer is published: after failure, purchase a new evaluation; history does not carry over. The Terms reserve the right to offer resets later.

After a hard breach a new evaluation or account can be purchased.

Add-ons
Yes

Overnight and weekend holding are paid add-ons. Targets, loss limits and calculation, split, days, consistency and payout frequency can be customised before purchase. Power includes overnight but not weekend holding; other presets include neither.

Yes

Swap-free: +10% of the base fee before discounts. EA Trading: +10%, MT5 only and unavailable on Direct. cTrader: USD 20 fixed surcharge where available. Alternative payout cycles have different configurator prices; the table shows the base option.

1-Step Prime Challenge.

Two Steps
Yes
Yes

Available as 2-Step Pro Challenge and 2-Step Prime Challenge.

Max Drawdown

Touching the maximum floor permanently closes the account and prevents further payouts. Static references the starting balance; trailing follows peak equity; EOD measures session close. The configurator starts both models on Intraday, while the Rulebook describes Static for 1-Step and trailing for 2-Step. The purchased Dashboard configuration prevails.

Pro and Prime: static floor based on the initial balance, also monitored against floating equity. Direct: trails the highest end-of-day balance, only moves upward and locks at the starting balance after the full drawdown distance is earned. A payout does not lower that floor.

Profit Split

Locked at purchase and applied to realised net profit. Above 80% requires Doji Coins under the Rulebook. Each configuration’s percentage is listed in its challenges.

The table shows the base biweekly 80% option. Pro and Prime also offer on-demand 80% and monthly 95% with an advertised 20% surcharge; Direct offers a separately priced biweekly 90% variant. The cycle is selected at purchase and cannot be changed later.

Daily Drawdown

Touching the daily limit closes positions and pauses trading without ending the account. EOD is checked at session close and blocks the following session; Intraday monitors floating equity. Static may lift its floor after a breach. The Rulebook and agreement use 17:00 New York; help says fixed 21:00 UTC and the blog says 00:00 UTC. Confirm timing and Static reactivation in the Dashboard.

Calculated from the previous day closing balance and includes realized and floating results. Resets at 17:00 EST as stated by Hola Prime. Breaching it is a hard breach.

Max Allocation
500,000

Standard combined allocation across sim funded and Direct accounts: USD 400,000 per trader or strategy. USD 90,000 cap for Nigeria, Malaysia, Indonesia, Cambodia, Israel, Thailand, Botswana, Mongolia, Kazakhstan, Jamaica and Mozambique. Combined Forex and Futures: USD 800,000. Prime Circle and scaling have separate conditions.

Maximum Accounts

Up to 10 concurrent funded accounts, subject to the aggregate capital cap. Unlimited concurrent evaluations; one personal registration.

Evaluations: unlimited purchases. Sim funded and Direct: up to four 50K accounts, two 100K accounts or one 200K account, within the total allocation limit. 100K and 200K accounts cannot be active together. Direct: at most two active accounts.

Maximum Trading Days

No phase completion deadline; inactivity termination still applies.

No evaluation deadline, subject to the inactivity rule.

Minimum Trading Days

Configurable evaluation: 1-Step, 3-10; 2-Step, 5-20 total, split 60/40. Initial configuration: 5 and 6+4 respectively. Standard/Budget/Power presets: 5 total; Easy: 7, subject to configurator normalisation. Funded Weekly and Bi-Weekly have their own fixed cycle minimums.

Pro: two days per phase. Prime 1-Step: two days. Prime 2-Step: three days per phase. Direct: no minimum. A day counts when at least one trade is opened.

Points Reward Program

Doji Coins: the Rulebook and help state 1 DC per complete closed lot, normally credited within 24 hours, and 1 DC = USD 0.10 for internal redemption. Used for discounts, challenges, split upgrades and merchandise; no cash-out or transfer. No expiry while registration stays active; forfeited on closure. Milestones every 5,000 lifetime DC. Homepage, one policy clause and technical conversion show different figures: verify actual redemption in the Dashboard.

Prime Circle: five lifetime Forex payouts, with no consecutive-payout or minimum-amount requirement. Only master payouts count when copying. Automatic eligibility subject to compliance, Platinum support, one pre-trading platform switch and allocation growth: USD 25,000 per three unique payouts of at least 1.5%, up to USD 1 million. The geographic USD 90,000 cap remains.

Monthly Competition
Yes

Monthly free competition programme and a paid format marked coming soon. Competitions use separate accounts and rules from challenges.

No
Account scaling
No data
Yes

Four-month cycles from the first trade: at least 10% net profit, two profitable months, two payouts and a positive balance. Manual request required. Increases based on the original balance: 25% first, 40% second and 50% from the third, up to USD 4 million per user. Loss limits are recalculated on the scaled balance. Unavailable during PCP.

Free Trial
No data
No
Profit After Breach
No data

A hard breach forfeits profits and pending payouts. Forex daily-loss-only exception: profits may still be paid if every trade had a stop loss and no trade exceeded 1% of the initial balance in profit or loss.

Three Steps
No data
No
Merge Accounts
No data
Limited

Only same-model Pro or Prime sim funded accounts, with no open trades or active cycle and a combined balance matching an available size. Unavailable for evaluations, Direct or PCP. Allocation limits and promotional-account exclusions apply.

Minimum Profitable Days
No data

Pro and Prime: three profitable days per biweekly cycle or seven per monthly cycle. Each day requires at least 0.5% net of the initial balance, measured using the lower of closing balance and equity minus the previous closing balance. On-demand uses consistency and minimum-profit requirements. Direct has no profitable-day minimum.

Position size scaling
No data
Limited

Pro sim funded: maximum open exposure of 10 lots on 25K, 20 on 50K, 40 on 100K and 80 on 200K; no cap on 5K and 10K. From the second scaling, each step adds 10% of the original cap. Prime and Direct: no explicit lot cap, subject to idea risk. First violation: closure, deduction and requested reactivation; second: 30% split and termination.

Expert Advisor (EA)
Limited

EAs and algorithms are allowed within the rules. Third-party signal services must be disclosed; the Terms require written approval for tools not authorised by programme rules. Competitions are manual-only.

Limited

MT5 only with the purchased EA Trading add-on; unavailable on Direct, cTrader, MatchTrader and TradeLocker. Strategy declaration and distinct settings required; identical strategies may be grouped for allocation. Analytical tools may not automatically execute or modify orders.

VPN
Limited

The Terms prohibit VPN or proxy use to conceal residence or access from restricted jurisdictions; they do not publish a general VPN ban.

Limited

IP must match the registered country, including KYC and payments. No geographic circumvention. VPS permitted only for trade-taking EAs with a dedicated static IP; manual VPS trading is prohibited. No MT5 access from US IP addresses.

Hedging
Limited

Opposite trades across Doji accounts and between funded and a personal broker to guarantee profits or neutralise risk are prohibited. Brackets and offsetting trades to farm coins are also prohibited.

Limited

Hedging within a single account is allowed. Hedging across multiple accounts (offsetting buy/sell positions on the same instrument) is prohibited.

Requires Stop Loss
Limited

The Rulebook and help say it is not mandatory. The funded agreement requires a stop-loss unless position sizing demonstrably manages risk; Doji may request justification.

Limited

Required on sim funded and Direct accounts. There is no fixed three-minute deadline; it must be placed before closing. A trade without a stop loss is treated as unlimited risk and can cause account closure.

Scalping
Limited

Positions opened and closed in under 5 seconds and latency-based scalping are prohibited.

Yes
Martingale
Limited

Martingale, grid and averaging down are prohibited when used to circumvent drawdown rules or create exponential exposure. First detection: explanation requested by email; repetition: closure.

No
Maximum Risk Limit
Limited

Size is limited by instrument margin and leverage. Overleveraging, outsized directional bets and size changes to exploit rules are prohibited; no universal fixed per-trade risk percentage is published.

Yes

Sim funded and Direct: at most 2% of the initial balance per idea, not per ticket. Risk is combined across overlapping positions and same-asset, same-direction re-entries within ten minutes, including chains. Not applicable during evaluation. PCP: 1% per idea and at most 30% aggregate margin.

Copy Trading
Limited

Only between your own accounts in the same direction, including a copier. Copying between users, group coordination and cross-account hedging are prohibited. Third-party signals must be disclosed.

Limited

Only own Hola Prime accounts. Challenge to challenge: unlimited. Sim funded: one master and one copier. Challenge to sim funded: only one receiving funded account; sim funded to challenges: unlimited. Copying from other prop firms is prohibited. Applies to accounts purchased on or after 15 September 2026.

News Trading
Limited

Ordinary news trading is allowed on evaluation and funded accounts. Systematic spike exploitation by entering within 60 seconds before a release and closing immediately after is prohibited, as are brackets and concentrated bets.

Limited

Prime and all evaluations: allowed. Pro sim funded and Direct: no opening or closing affected instruments from five minutes before to five minutes after high-impact news, including SL, TP and pending orders. Previously opened positions may be held. Pro: offending profit removed; Direct: account closure. PCP also restricts Prime news trading.

Inactivity Rule

Termination after 30 calendar days without placing, modifying or closing an order or position. Logging in or holding an untouched position does not restart the count.

Yes

Hard breach after 30 consecutive calendar days without opening a trade, in evaluation and sim funded. Closing trades, changing SL/TP or placing pending orders does not count as activity.

Consistency Rule
Yes

Funded only; compares the best net realised day with cumulative profit since activation, without payout resets. It blocks eligibility until met, without closing the account by itself. Configurable 10-50%, initially 30%. Daily caps at 30%; the Rulebook leaves Weekly uncapped, although the blog contradicts this. Presets: Standard/Default and Budget 30%; Power 20%; Easy 40%.

Limited

No consistency target to pass Pro or Prime. On-demand sim funded: best day at most 40% of cycle profit and total profit of at least 2% of the initial balance. Direct: best day at most 20%. A partial payout resets the calculation; retained profit does not replace new-cycle profit. PCP may impose additional conditions on high-risk traders.

Hold Weekend
Limited

Overnight and weekend holding must be purchased as separate add-ons and carry into funded. Without the relevant add-on, automatic closure at the cut-off is not itself a breach.

Limited

Prime and Pro evaluations: allowed. Pro sim funded: close before 15:45 EST Friday; automatic closure and suspension until Monday. Direct: same deadline, but a hard breach and termination.

Prohibited Strategies

Latency/price arbitrage; HFT under 5 s; data/error exploitation; account sharing/selling; false identity; copying between users; cross-account hedging or coordination; deliberate evaluation cycling; payout/drawdown exploitation; wash trading or Doji Coins farming; one-sided betting and brackets; cancellation abuse; insider dealing, manipulation and pump-and-dump. Reviews may end accounts, forfeit profits and affect pending payouts or Wallet balances.

HFT and tick scalping; arbitrage or exploitation of errors and liquidity; grid, martingale and DCA; unsupported one-sided bets, overexposure and account rolling; third-party accounts, devices, management or signals; cross-account hedging; material changes in strategy, assets or risk after passing; hyperactivity and unauthorized automation. MT5: at most 100 simultaneous orders and 1,000 positions or modifications daily. Sanctions may include profit adjustments, restrictions, PCP or termination.
