Yes

Over a rolling 3-month period: 15% return, at least 2 of 3 profitable months, and 3 payouts. Balance increases by 25%, profit split rises to 90%, and the account can scale up to $4,000,000.

Yes

Automatic 90-day cycles: +30% size (up to 680K; 340K on Instant) and +5 split points. They require 50 trades, 12% net (1 Step), 10% (2 Step) or 15% (Instant), 2 of 3 profitable months (all 3 on Instant and Prime), no trade above 7.5% of profit (5% on Instant and Prime) and no warning.

Two Steps
Yes
Yes
Max Drawdown

The mechanism depends on the product: static on Standard, Swing, and Select; trailing with a lock on Zero and Nova funded accounts.

Static on every plan: the floor stays fixed below the starting balance and is measured on equity, floating loss included. Touching it ends the account.

Profit Split

80% initially. It rises to 90% after meeting the scaling-plan requirements.

Edge rises 5 points per scaling cycle up to 95%; Instant Pro up to 90%; Instant Go up to 85%. Prime moves to 100% after 30 days funded and does not rise with scaling. Each strike pays the next payout at 10%.

Free Trial
No
Yes

One free Edge 1 Step 100K for 14 days under the paid rules, after KYC approval. It never funds or pays out; passing it gives a 20% code valid for 30 days.

Daily Drawdown

Calculated on equity and includes open trades, commissions, and swaps. The applicable percentage is shown on each challenge.

Measured from the previous day's closing balance (5 PM New York), floating loss included. Touching it ends the account.

Three Steps
Yes
No
Max Allocation
400,000

$1.5M per person across all CFD and futures accounts.

Maximum Accounts

Maximum combined initial allocation of $400,000.

No data
No

Expert Advisor (EA)
Yes

EAs are allowed when the strategy is the trader's own and does not breach prohibited practices such as arbitrage, HFT, or exploitation of delays and errors.

Limited

Only EAs the trader developed and controls, and can explain and show running. Bought, rented or subscription bots are prohibited.

VPN
Yes

Hiding your location with a VPN, proxy or remote desktop is prohibited and triggers a new identity check. Your own EA on a VPS is allowed if disclosed.

No
Scalping
Limited

Manual scalping is allowed, but tick scalping, HFT, and strategies exploiting delays or pricing errors are prohibited.

Stacking / Layering (DCA)
Limited

Multiple positions are allowed as part of a legitimate strategy; excessive or coordinated exposure intended to bypass risk rules is prohibited.

No data
Martingale
No
No

Grid and martingale strategies that add exposure into losses are prohibited.

Maximum Risk Limit
Limited

Orion may treat excessive exposure, overleveraging, and other risk practices inconsistent with realistic trading as a breach.

Limited

Max. Exposure: open notional may not exceed 5,000% of the balance at 2.5K down to 1,000% at 200K. Once funded, no trade may float more than 2% of the starting balance in loss (1.5% on Instant). Each gives a warning that, if the account is in profit, resets it to the starting balance; the second ends the account. Instant: max 1.5% floating loss per symbol.

Copy Trading
Limited

Copying between your own Orion accounts is allowed. Copying signals, third-party accounts, or external services is prohibited.

Limited

Only to copy your own trading: between your own CFD accounts or from your own master account at another broker or firm. Signals and third-party accounts are prohibited.

News Trading
Limited

During evaluation there is no timing restriction, but using news as a strategy is prohibited. On funded accounts, Nova, Standard, and Select prohibit opening or closing trades 2 minutes before and after high-impact news. Swing has no timing restriction. Zero allows it, but trades executed within 5 minutes before or after receive a 50% profit split.

Limited

Allowed at every stage. Straddling is prohibited: opposite or offsetting positions on the same or correlated instruments within 15 minutes of a red or amber release; the risk desk reviews it.

Inactivity Rule
Limited

The account may be closed after prolonged inactivity under Orion's current terms.

30 days without a closed trade ends the account.

Consistency Rule
Limited

The 20% Best Day rule applies only to Orion Zero and Orion Nova funded accounts.

Limited

No best-day rule. A single trade may not exceed 60% of profit; if it does, payouts pause until it is back under. On funded Prime, every 7 days the trade count and volume per instrument must stay within ±25% of the average, or the account moves to a standard funded account.

Hold Weekend
Yes
Limited

Only with the add-on. Without it, positions are closed at 4:45 PM New York time on Friday: the first time is a warning, the second ends the account.
