Account Reset

A reset gives a trader who has violated their account rules (such as exceeding the Daily or Overall Loss Limit) the ability to restore the account to its original starting balance paying a fee, and begin trading again.

1-Step Nitro X (Evaluation Phase)

  • Reset Limit: Unlimited
  • Reset Window: Within 30 days of the original purchase date

1-Step Nitro and 1-Step Nitro X (Funded Phase)

  • Reset Limit: One-time only

Instant Standard

  • Reset Limit: One-time only
  • Reset Window: Within 24 hours after the breach

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.

VPN
Yes
Yes

You are allowed to use a VPN or VPS as long as it has a Static IP.

Also be aware that the IP rule restricts multiple accounts from different individuals from being accessed from the same IP address to ensure the integrity and fairness of our trading environment.

Hedging

No
No
Scalping
Yes
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.

Stacking / Layering (DCA)

Yes
Maximum Risk Limit

Shield Risk Protocol

Maximum Floating Loss Limits

  • Instant Plus, 2-Step Plus: Maximum floating loss = 1% of account balance

Breach Consequences

  • Breach it once = 80% profit split drops to 50%
  • Breach it repeatedly = payout share reduces permanently to 40%, 30% and finally 20%
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
Yes

Built-in Copy Trading lets traders link their own FTM accounts and mirror trades, including from Evaluation to Funded phases. Available across supported platforms. Account sharing and group trading remain prohibited.

Limited

Prime and Flex 1 Step: external signals and copy trading are not allowed. Other account types allow copy trading.

News Trading
Yes
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

Accounts inactive for 30 days are subject to closure.

30 days

Consistency Rule
Yes

Instant (all)

  • If a single day's profit is more than 20% of your total profit in the Instant Funding Account, you have to keep trading until the best day profit is less than 20% of the total profit.
