Maximum Risk Limit
Yes

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%.
No
Copy Trading
Yes
Yes
News Trading
Yes

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.

No

Traders are restricted from opening new positions within a 6-minute window – 3 minutes before and 3 minutes after high impact news

Inactivity Rule

30 days

30 days

Consistency Rule
Yes

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.
No
Hold Weekend
Yes

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.

Limited

Only with add-on (+10% price)

Prohibited Strategies

  • 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
  • Exploiting broker pricing or platform errors.
  • Using insider or non-public information.
  • Front-running trades from other sources.
  • Trading in ways that harm the company's broker relationship.
