One-off fee. Includes 30 days of market data; then $35 per 30 days ($540 a month for professional subscribers).

One-time fee. No monthly subscription and no recurring charges. EOD, Sprint, FLEX Challenge and GOAT Access are paid up-front to enter the evaluation phase.

No EAs or automated trading on futures.

Personal automated strategies and EAs are allowed, provided they are consistent with the trader's style and do not exploit system vulnerabilities, latency, or data feed anomalies. Strategies designed to manipulate the simulated environment are prohibited.

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.

Within one account, yes (mini against micro or different contracts). Prohibited across accounts.

Yes, but trades under 30 seconds may make at most 50% of profit; until it is back under, no pass or payout.

Manual scalping allowed. Tick scalping and trades closed within 2 minutes have their profits deducted (micro-scalping rule). FLEX is exempt from the 2-minute rule: at each payout, at least 50% of closed trades and 50% of net profit must come from trades held longer than 1 minute; otherwise the payout is declined and sub-minute profit deducted. Tick scalping remains prohibited.

Allowed when used responsibly within the contract and loss limits; aggressive sequences are reviewed.

A cap on contracts open at once; exceeding it once is a warning, the second time goes to review.

Only between your own futures accounts or from your own master account. Copying others or signals is prohibited.

Copy trading between your own accounts is allowed (e.g. between multiple GFF accounts in your name). Bundle discounts (2 or 3 accounts) are available and you can copy trades to all simultaneously. Cross-user copy trading is not addressed in the helpcenter.

Free during the One Step evaluation. Funded and on Instant, no trade may be opened or closed 2 minutes either side of red USD news: profit from those trades is removed. Two warnings; the third goes to review.

Evaluation phase (EOD, Sprint, FLEX)
No news trading restrictions.

Funded phase (all account types including Instant)
2-minute buffer around high-impact news events. Within 2 min before/after release you cannot open, close or trigger pending orders. Positions opened before the window may be held through the event.

GOAT Access
News trading not allowed.

Microscalping rule
EOD, Sprint, Instant: profits from trades closed within 2 minutes of opening are deducted (not a breach but profits invalid).
FLEX: microscalping rule does NOT apply.

15 days without trading deactivates the account; an open position does not count.

15 consecutive days without trades results in account breach. Applies to both evaluation and funded accounts. Once breached, account cannot be reinstated and fees are non-refundable. Notify support in advance if you plan to be away.

No day may exceed 40% of the cycle's profit on funded One Step (none in the evaluation) or 20% on Instant. Until met, the payout waits.

No single day can represent more than:

• EOD Challenge — Evaluation: 50% of total profits. Funded: 30% during a payout period.
• Sprint Challenge — Evaluation: 50%. Funded: 35%.
• FLEX Challenge — Evaluation: 50%. Funded: none.
• Instant Funded — 20% (the tightest of all plans).
• Instant Lite — 15% for the 1st payout, 20% for the 2nd, 25% from the 3rd onwards.
• GOAT Daily — Evaluation: 40%. Funded: none.
• GOAT Access: none during the evaluation.

Violating the rule blocks the next payout but does not close the account.

Overnight holding NOT permitted (all account types). All positions must be closed before the end of the trading session. Weekend holding also NOT permitted.

Hedging across accounts, latency or cross-market arbitrage, account or device sharing, coordinated trading, copying others, market or order-queue manipulation, volume inflation, filler trades to count days, HFT, strategies that cannot work in a live market, gambling and account rolling, straddling tier-1 news and gap trading.

• Tick scalping and other extremely short-duration trading.
• Except on FLEX, trades closed within 2 minutes - profits are deducted (micro-scalping rule).
• Unrealistic execution that relies on simulated market conditions (slippage, liquidity, partial fills) not replicable in live.
• Holding positions overnight or over the weekend.
• Trading affected instruments inside the 2-minute high-impact news buffer on funded accounts.

Everything is closed at 3:55 PM Chicago time every session; it is not a breach.
