On request from the dashboard, after several profitable periods on a funded account. Decided case by case based on consistency and rule compliance, at no cost.

2 Phase Challenge.

Static, measured on the initial capital. Breaching it suspends the account.

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

Allowed if declared. Undeclared EAs, HFT and abusive AI are prohibited.

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.

VPN and VPS are prohibited; detection suspends the account.

Prohibited, including across accounts.

Hedging within one account is allowed. Hedging positions across multiple accounts to manipulate results is prohibited.

Mandatory when opening and closing every trade. One trade without a stop is tolerated; the second one suspends the account. Can be removed with the paid add-on.

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

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

Per trade: maximum loss of 2% and maximum profit of 3%.

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

Copying between your own accounts does not count for payouts. Under the "Be copied" program, copied profit can be at most 50% of the eligible profit.

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

Closed after 15 consecutive days without trading, or suspended after 40 days in loss.

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