- 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
Only EAs you built and control yourself, plus risk and trade-management tools. Commercial EAs are banned, including bought, rented, licensed or publicly distributed ones, however much they have been modified.
- 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
Allowed while you remain the verified holder and sole operator. It cannot be used to share access, hide your identity or location, or get around geographic restrictions.
- 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.
Genuine scalping is allowed. High-frequency, tick and repetitive micro-duration trading are prohibited; positions are expected to stay open for at least two minutes as a benchmark.
Scaling in or out and multiple entries are allowed for a genuine trade thesis. Layering or re-entry to hide concentrated risk or manipulate payout eligibility is prohibited.
Grid, martingale and anti-martingale escalation 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%.
Only between accounts registered in your own name, whether at Leveraged, another prop firm or a retail broker. Copying between different people, family included, is prohibited.
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.
Blocked on every program except Sprint. You cannot open, increase, or fully or partially close a position in the five minutes before or after a high-impact release, pending orders included. A position opened earlier may stay open through it.
30 days
30 days without opening and closing a trade and the account is closed.
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.
20% at payout on funded Turbo and Leveraged ONE accounts: the best day cannot exceed 20% of total profit. No consistency rule during evaluation or on Sprint and Classic Portfolio Manager plans. Crypto has its own listing.
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.
Genuine swing trading and overnight or weekend holding are allowed. Strategies built to exploit expected gaps are prohibited. Hedged or offsetting positions within the same account may not be held overnight or 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
High-frequency and tick scalping; latency or price-feed arbitrage; market-gap and restricted-news exploitation; cross-account hedging or coordination; third-party signals or account management; grid and martingale; payout manipulation and platform abuse.
