Challenge Rules & FAQ
The rules for each challenge type, how payouts work, and answers to the questions we get asked most. Pick a challenge type below to see its rules.
General Rules (All Challenge Types)
Max Lot Size
20.00 lots per position on all challenge types except HFT (unlimited).
Max Risk Per Trade
1% of account balance per trade. We check this by hand when you request a payout, and profits from trades that go over it are voided.
Copy Trading
Not allowed on any challenge type. If we detect copy trading the account is permanently banned.
Max Drawdown Calculation
Max drawdown is always calculated from your highest equity point (high water mark), not from the starting balance.
Trade Duration (Funded)
On funded accounts a trade has to stay open for at least 3 minutes. Anything closed sooner does not count towards profit.
Account Monitoring
Every account is monitored around the clock. Rule breaches are picked up and enforced automatically.
