Full refund if profitable 30 days after funding.

Solo FX: The Dashboard and launch announcement say the fee is refunded after 30 funded days if the account is profitable. Schedule 10A-1 says it is refunded upon approval of the first Reward Payment Request. Finotive's Terms state that the Schedule prevails; confirm with support before purchase.

The fee is fully refunded with the second successful funded payout.

Bank wire: no fee. PayPal: no fee for withdrawals over $100. Crypto: network fee only.

• Standard Challenge, Pro Challenge and Instant Standard: 7 days

No time limit.

2-Step and 1-Step: 5 qualifying days per phase, each with at least 0.5% profit. Instant: 10 profitable days before the first payout, also with at least 0.5% each.

Minimum profitable days number must be met every time a trader wants to pass an evaluation phase, scale a funded account or request a payout. A day is considered profitable when it reaches at least 0.5% profit

• Challenge 1 Step: 3 days
• Challenge 2 Step: 2 days
• Instant Standard: 0 days
• Instant Lite: 5 days
• Finotive Pro 1 Step: 3 days
• Finotive Pro 2 Step: 2 days

Up to 3 funded accounts at the same time. Multiple simultaneous evaluations are allowed.

• Solo FX: all Expert Advisors and automated execution tools are prohibited
• Other programmes: pre-purchased or mass-market “plug-and-play” EAs are not allowed

EAs require prior approval, normally within 24–48 hours.

• Solo FX: VPNs, proxies and location masking are prohibited
• Other programmes: Finotive's Terms prohibit masked or unstable connections when they impair verification of identity, location or account control

VPNs, proxies and Tor are prohibited. A private VPS with a dedicated IP may be used for an approved EA with prior authorization.

• Solo FX: stop loss is not required
• Other programmes: stop loss is required

Solo FX has no specific scalping, rapid-trade-opening, trades-under-60-seconds or HFT restriction. Latency arbitrage and execution abuse remain prohibited.

Tick scalping and strategies exploiting latency or feed delays are prohibited.

Floating drawdown is calculated per symbol against the initial account balance.

• Instant Funding: 1.5%. The first confirmed breach produces a formal warning. From the second confirmed breach onward, each separate event records one strike and reduces that payout cycle's reward payment to 10%.
• Funded Challenge and Funded Pro: 2%. Each confirmed breach records one strike and reduces that payout cycle's reward payment to 10%.
• Challenge and Pro evaluation phases: 2%. It is monitored for the progression report but does not trigger a real-time strike or account closure.
• Solo FX: 2.5% during Simulated Funded Status only. A confirmed breach records one strike and reduces that payout cycle's reward payment to 10%.

2-Step and 1-Step: maximum realized loss of 2% of current balance per trade idea; it is a hard breach. Instant has no such limit. On 2-Step it can be removed with an add-on.

News trading is allowed. For Solo FX, the Dashboard and launch announcement prohibit news straddling, but Schedule 10A-1 disapplies the Terms section that prohibits it. Confirm this contradiction with Finotive before trading news.

Trades cannot be opened during the 30 minutes before or after any high-impact news event. Existing positions may be held and closed. A 15% add-on removes the restriction.

30 days

Instant only: automatic closure after 7 calendar days without a trade. 2-Step and 1-Step evaluations have no inactivity rule.

Pro accounts — from the 31st funded day

• Weekly trade count and instrument volume must remain within ±25% of the averages recorded during the Pro Challenge and the first 30 funded days.
• During every rolling 90-day period, realised and unrealised profit, including rewards already paid, must total at least 5% of the initial balance.
• Breaching either condition downgrades the account to the equivalent standard funded account and permanently removes the Pro benefits.

Instant Funding Standard and Lite

• At payout, the single most profitable closed trade must contribute less than 60% of total positive realised profit. Requesting a payout while the condition remains active records one Conditional Strike and reduces that payout cycle's reward payment to 10%.

Solo FX

• No specific consistency rule or single-trade profit dependency.

Instant only: no day may exceed 15% of the sum of profitable-day gains when requesting a payout. It does not apply to 2-Step or 1-Step.

Weekend holding is available through the optional Weekend Holding Add-On on Instant Funding accounts. Without it, all non-crypto positions must be closed before Friday's 17:00 New York market close; Finotive recommends closing at least 10 minutes earlier. Each confirmed breach records one strike and reduces that payout cycle's reward payment to 10%. Five cumulative strikes permanently close the account.

Only with the Weekend Holding add-on (+15%). Without it, all positions must remain closed over the weekend.

• Excessive notional volume (not applicable to Solo FX; its exposure is governed by 1:33 margin)
• High-frequency stacking, including correlated instruments (not a Solo FX-specific restriction; latency arbitrage and execution abuse remain prohibited)
• Martingale or grid strategies
• News straddling (the Solo FX dashboard and announcement prohibit it, but Schedule 10A-1 disapplies section 7.9; confirm with support)
• Using ultra-tight stops just to mask oversized lots

Copy trading and external signals, hedging on identical or correlated instruments, one-sided or oversized betting, arbitrage, tick scalping, HFT, account coordination, platform exploitation, martingale, grid, layering and third-party account management.
