Pros & Cons
Main Benefits
  • Static (non-trailing) drawdowns on every program; no consistency rules and no minimum trading days on Core and Lite; unlimited time limit on Core and Lite; news trading, overnight and weekend holding allowed on the evaluation path; evaluation fee refunded with the first compensation request; entry fees start at $5 for the 24-hour Speed Challenge and $25 for a $2.5K Core Challenge; compensation available 72 hours after qualifying, then on demand.
  • 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
  • Residents of the United States, Russia, North Korea, Cuba, Iran, Belarus and Syria are not accepted. Scalping is listed among the prohibited strategies despite the site marketing 'full trading freedom'. A margin-concentration rule that can fail a passing account is not stated on the public program pages; the firm confirmed the rule and said it would make it more visible after a trader raised it publicly. Direct Access Pro forbids weekend holding and costs $478 to $4,780. Total simulated allocation is capped at $100,000 across all accounts. The company is not regulated by any financial authority and describes all compensation as contractual, not market 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.
