Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • 80% profit split with a 4th-withdrawal performance-fee bonus. Two payout methods: Bi-Weekly (every 14 days, $100 min) or On-Demand (request anytime once the consistency and 2% profit thresholds are met). Hedging and stacking allowed within one account. Risk-management EAs permitted on MT5. Weekend/overnight holding allowed on Swing, One and Three plans and during Pro evaluation phases.
  • Up to 100% profit split, Hyper Growth 1-Step evaluation with 10% target and unlimited time, High Stakes 2-Step with Step-1 cash/HUB rewards from $2 to $40 by account size, London-based (Five Percent Online LTD) since 2016.
Main Drawbacks
  • Weekend holding triggers a soft breach (profit removal) on Pro funded (Qualified Analyst) accounts. EAs limited to risk-management tools only - no fully automated strategies, HFT or latency arbitrage (immediate account closure). Cross-account hedging and group trading with identical EAs are prohibited. On-demand payouts require passing the 40% Best Day consistency rule plus a minimum 2% gross profit.
  • Hyper Growth stop-out at 6% below initial balance; High Stakes requires two steps plus verification refund to pass; minimum 3 profitable days required on Pro Growth/High Stakes.
