Full refund if profitable 30 days after funding.

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

- Instant Standard: 0 days
- Instant Lite: 5 days
- Finotive Pro 1 Step: 3 days
- Finotive Pro 2 Step: 2 days
- Solo FX: 4 days with at least 0.5% each
- 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
- 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
- Solo FX: stop loss is not required
- Other programmes: stop loss is required
This rule doesn't apply when buying the add-on at the check-out (+10%)
Solo FX has no specific scalping, rapid-trade-opening, trades-under-60-seconds or HFT restriction. Latency arbitrage and execution abuse remain 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%.
1-Step Max: maximum 1% combined open risk per symbol, not across the entire account. Positions on different symbols have separate 1% limits. During evaluation, symbol-risk, missing-stop-loss and maximum-position-risk violations share one counter: warnings on strikes 1 and 2; hard breach on strike 3. On funded accounts, the first violation is a hard breach. The purchased no-stop-loss add-on exception still applies.
Allowed between Lark Simulated Funded Accounts. Not allowed between Evaluation Accounts
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.
30 days
30 days
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.
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.
It is necessary to buy the add-on at the check-out (+10%
- 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
- All-or-nothing
- Gambling
- Ideally no more than 20% margin or 1.5% of the balance per trade
