Yes

1 Phase Challenge.

Yes
Account scaling
Limited

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.

No

No published scaling plan. Increasing capital requires additional accounts within the maximum allocation.

Two Steps
Yes

2 Phase Challenge.

Yes
Max Drawdown

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

Static against each phase's starting balance, including funded accounts. It does not trail profits or move with payouts. Balance and floor reset at the start of the second phase. Equity reaching or falling below the floor, including floating losses, closes the account.

Profit Split

Rises with each payout. Challenges: 70%, 75%, 80%, 85% and 90% from the fifth. Instant funding: 50%, 55%, 60%, 65%, 70% and 90% from the sixth.

No data
Free Trial

Free Trial 10K, no card needed: 8% target, 5% daily and 10% total loss, no mandatory stop loss. One per email every 30 days; after passing, the account stays open for 24 hours and pays nothing.

No

Free read-only DXtrade guest access to view instruments and prices, without trading. Sprint offers challenge prizes, with award-specific profit splits and payout caps.

Daily Drawdown

Measured on the initial capital, including floating losses; per its forum it resets at midnight UTC. Breaching it suspends the account.

Recalculated at 00:30 UTC from the higher of balance or equity at that moment. Floating profit can raise the reference; the resulting floor is monitored against real-time equity. Reaching or falling below it breaches the account.

Max Allocation

$1,000,000 per account and $3,000,000 combined.

200,000
Maximum Accounts

Several accounts at once up to the maximum combined capital. Each one is evaluated separately.

One registered profile and verified identity. Multiple challenges and funded accounts may sit under that profile; each is assessed separately and results cannot offset one another.

Merge Accounts
No data
No
Maximum Trading Days

No time limit. The challenge must be activated within 30 days of purchase.

No completion deadline; the inactivity rule still applies.

Minimum Trading Days

Evaluation: 2 days. Funded account: 14 days before each payout; a day only counts if a trade is opened and closed on it. If a payout is refused, the counter resets.

Five qualifying days, not necessarily consecutive, per evaluation phase. The count resets on funding and must be met again before the first payout, but not subsequent payouts.

Minimum Profitable Days

Funded account: 7 of the 14 minimum days. In evaluation, the FAQ and its comparisons ask for 2 profitable days; the rules page says 2 trading days.

A qualifying day requires net realised profit of at least 0.8% of the starting balance. Days run from 00:30 to 00:30 UTC. Holding a position open does not add days.

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

Limited

Self-built or publicly available commercial EAs, bots and AI are allowed in evaluation and funded accounts. REST and WebSocket API included without fee or approval; no FIX or L2/L3 depth through the API. MT4/MT5 EAs need a bridge or adaptation. Private, exclusive or bespoke signals are prohibited.

Requires Stop Loss
Yes

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.

No

Optional. A triggered Stop Loss exits at market and may slip. Stop Limit orders are disabled.

Scalping
Limited

Trades under 100 seconds or under 1.5 pips count as prohibited scalping; repeated trades of 2 pips or less are reviewed.

Limited

Ordinary scalping is allowed; tick scalping, HFT and pricing or latency exploitation are prohibited.

No
No
Maximum Risk Limit
Yes

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

Limited

No general numeric per-trade cap. Leverage, equity limits and the ban on abusive risk still apply. Single stocks have per-company and total exposure limits published on the platform, with possible short restrictions.

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.

Limited

Only between accounts owned by the same trader. Public signal services and commercial EAs are allowed without subscriber coordination. Copying other people's accounts, third-party management and private, exclusive or bespoke signals are prohibited.

Limited

Macro news trading is allowed. For single stocks, close from 24 hours before to 24 hours after earnings and ex-dividend events. Close before other corporate actions announced at least one day in advance; reopen when normal trading resumes.

Inactivity Rule

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

Deactivated after 30 calendar days without valid activity, counted from assignment or the latest trade close. A trade held at least 60 seconds qualifies; open positions pause the timer and pending orders do not count. One support-requested reactivation is available within six months; afterwards it may be treated as a hard breach.

Consistency Rule
Yes

When requesting a payout, no single trade may exceed 25% of total profit (if it does, the payout is held until rebalanced) and no instrument 80%. Each trade must also be between 1/4 and 2 times the largest lot already used on the account.

No

No cap on a winning day's share of profit; qualifying-day requirements and prohibited strategies still apply.

Hold Weekend
Yes
Limited

Allowed, including forex. Single stocks may have size limits, weekend bans or mandatory out-of-hours closure by instrument. Equity limits and overnight costs continue to apply.

Prohibited Strategies

HFT and scalping under 100 seconds or under 1.5 pips, martingale, hedging (including across accounts), grid, latency and quote arbitrage, gap trading, exploiting price or platform errors, abusive AI, undeclared EAs, overexposure or gambling, account rolling and third party trading.
