Min. trade durationNo minimum hold time is required, but profit from any trade closed in under 60 seconds or for less than 10 ticks is deducted.

Challenge time limitNone. No time limits: the account never expires unless the subscription is cancelled, and there is no restriction on how fast the Evaluation can be completed.

Inactivity rule10-day inactivity rule on both Evaluation and funded accounts. If no trades are placed for 10 consecutive calendar days the account may be automatically marked inactive and closed: Evaluation accounts lose all accumulated progress and require a reset or a new Evaluation, funded accounts are manually disabled and closed and require purchasing a new Evaluation. Logging in, chart analysis, alerts and platform browsing do not count as activity. Traders can contact support to park the account before the 10-day limit is reached.

Trading hours follow standard CME futures market hours in Central Standard Time: markets open 5:00 PM CST and close 4:00 PM CST the following day, Sunday through Friday, with a daily cut-off at 3:15 PM CST. Copy trading is allowed on both Evaluation and funded accounts through the integrated DeepCharts platform for the trader's own accounts; coordinated group copy trading, latency-based copying and unauthorised third-party tools are not allowed. Level 2 and Eurex market data fees are billed by the platform or exchange, not by CypherTicks. Enforcement can be automatic (for example DLL locks) or discretionary after review, and may include account locks, profit adjustments, voided payouts, account closure or restriction from future programs.
