  • Challenge 2 Step: 2 days
  • Instant Standard: 0 days
  • Instant Lite: 5 days
  • Finotive Pro 1 Step: 3 days

Expert Advisor (EA)
Limited

Only self-developed or transparent systems with full source access and control over their logic. No commercial black-box bots, HFT or arbitrage.

Limited
  • 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
VPN
Limited

Allowed for security or connectivity, never to conceal identity or bypass restrictions.

Limited
  • 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
Hedging
Limited

Hedging mode only; never across accounts or users. Netting mode combines positions per instrument.

Yes
Scalping
Limited

No HFT or tick scalping. Payouts require the 15-second rule: at least half of trades and profits must come from trades exceeding that threshold, as described in payout help.

Limited

Accounts with the unified High-Frequency Trading rule active: up to 20% of profit may come from trades held for two minutes or less. The rule becomes active after the first 10 closed trades and is tracked in the dashboard. Exceeding the limit does not generate a strike, but the percentage must return within 20% before requesting a payout.

Solo FX has no specific scalping, rapid-trade-opening, trades-under-60-seconds or HFT restriction. Latency arbitrage and execution abuse remain prohibited.

Maximum Risk Limit
Limited

All trades in the same market are aggregated, including fees, spread and slippage. Limit: 1% in evaluation and 0.5% funded/Instant. Two soft closures; the third breach ends the account.

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%.
Copy Trading
No
Yes
News Trading
Yes
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.

Inactivity Rule

Closure after 8 calendar days without trading. Opening or closing a trade resets the timer; an open position pauses it.

30 days

Consistency Rule
Limited

Core: 30% funded and Instant, none during evaluation. Rapid: 40% during evaluation and none when funded according to checkout and payout-specific help. The rule measures the best day against total profit and resets after each payout.

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.
Hold Weekend
Yes
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.

Prohibited Strategies

Latency arbitrage, price or platform manipulation, spoofing/layering, bug exploitation, copying/external signals, third-party management, account sharing, multiple identities and excessive exposure.

  • Excessive notional volume (not applicable to Solo FX; its exposure is governed by the margin requirement applicable to the account)
  • 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
Requires Stop Loss
No data
Limited
  • Solo FX: stop loss is not required
  • Other programmes: stop loss is required
