Account Reset

You can reset your account from the stage you reached: Phase 1, Phase 2 or even a Funded Account. If you reached funded, the reset provides a new funded account at the same starting size, so you can return to trading toward your next payout without completing the evaluation again.

Resets are available through your Trader Dashboard for 7 days after an account breach.
Synthetics exception: evaluation phases only, at 20% off base price. Funded synthetic accounts cannot be reset.

Expert Advisor (EA)
Limited

EAs are allowed; no HFT, latency arbitrage, error exploitation or abusive automation.

Limited

Allowed under the firm's EA conditions, including current Synthetics. Legacy synthetic accounts prohibit EAs until passing their current evaluation phase or their next funded payout.

Hedging
No

Netting accounts offset opposite orders in the same symbol. Cross account hedging is prohibited.

Limited

Allowed. Synthetics: within the same trading account only.

Requires Stop Loss
Limited

PFP Low: stop at opening and closing, with up to 20 seconds to place it. Moderate: stop before closing. Medium, High, Classic and InstantGrowth: no general requirement. An accidental position fully closed within 10 seconds does not by itself change risk group.

No
Scalping
Limited

No minimum holding time under the current terms; no tick scalping or HFT.

Limited

Tick scalping (holding trades for only a few seconds to capture minimal price movements) is prohibited. Regular scalping is allowed; the previous "50% of trades > 1 minute" rule was removed for accounts purchased after March 12, 2026.
Funded Synthetics: profits from full or partial closes inside 5 minutes are removed at payout. Soft breach; the account stays open. Legacy accounts apply this after their next payout.

Stacking / Layering (DCA)
Limited

Partial entries are allowed; all positions with the same instrument and trading intent count as a single trade for combined risk assessment.

Yes
Martingale
Limited

Prohibited on InstantGrowth. Other plans remain subject to risk limits and restrictions on excessively speculative strategies.

Limited

Allowed on other account types. Prohibited on Synthetics under the current rules. Legacy synthetic accounts retain permission until passing their current evaluation phase or their next funded payout.

Maximum Risk Limit
Yes

Per trade: Classic and PFP evaluation 3%; InstantGrowth 2%. Funded PFP Low/Moderate/Medium/High: 1%/1.5%/2%/3% of opening balance. Exceeding the assigned group pauses funding and closes positions; resuming requires paying the fee difference for the new group.

Yes

Flex 1 Step (evaluation and funded): 1% Risk Per Trade Idea from the initial account size. Positions on the same instrument count as one idea. The first automatic breach is soft and the second is hard; aggregated re-entry losses may cause direct account closure.

Other Funded Accounts purchased after March 12, 2026 (Prime excluded): 1.5% Risk Per Trade Idea. A "trade idea" includes your initial position and any positions opened in the same direction within 10 minutes of closing a losing trade. The combined loss across all positions in that window cannot exceed 1.5% of your initial account size.

Optional Add-On at checkout: Upgrade to 2% Risk Per Trade Idea for more drawdown room.

Instant Lite (accounts purchased from August 17, 2026): once the account reaches 4% in profit, a 1% maximum risk per trade applies.

Copy Trading
Limited

Own account copying is allowed during evaluation only. Prohibited on funded accounts, including your own. While one funded account holds an asset, other funded accounts of the same user or network cannot open that asset in either direction.

Limited

Prime and Flex 1 Step: external signals and copy trading are not allowed. Other account types allow copy trading.
Synthetics: between your own accounts only.

News Trading
Limited

Trading through news is allowed. Bracketing high impact news with nearby buy and sell stops is prohibited.

Limited
  • Flex 1 Step: do not open or close positions within 5 minutes before or after a high-impact news event, during either evaluation or funded stages. Holding through news is allowed. Strikes carry over: the first deducts the profit, the second also reduces the profit split from 85% to 60%, and the third closes the account
  • Other accounts: do not open new trades within 2 minutes before or after a scheduled high-impact news release. You may close or manage existing trades, and take-profits, stop-losses and partial closes remain permitted
Inactivity Rule

The account may be terminated after 3 consecutive months of inactivity.

30 days

Consistency Rule
No
Limited

Instant Lite accounts purchased from August 17, 2026 have a 15% consistency rule. It does not apply to Flex 1 Step, Instant Elite, standard 1-Step, Prime or standard 2-Step accounts, which have no consistency rule.
Synthetics: 25% once funded; no evaluation consistency. Legacy funded synthetics: 30% until the next payout.

Hold Weekend
Limited

Allowed during evaluations; prohibited on funded accounts.

Limited

Flex 1 Step: overnight holding is allowed, but weekend holding is not allowed. Other account types allow weekend holding.

Prohibited Strategies

Arbitrage, latency exploitation, tick scalping, HFT, hedge/reverse arbitrage, news bracketing, error or slow feed exploitation, third party account management, account sharing and resale. InstantGrowth prohibits martingale and grid.

  • Arbitrage
  • HFT (High Frequency Trading)
  • Tick Scalping
  • Toxic Trading
  • Bad Faith Trading
  • Current Synthetics: grid trading and martingale
