|---|---|---|---|
| Evaluation | 10% | 3% 3% of the higher of starting balance or equity, reset at 00:00 UTC / server time. | 6% |
One-phase evaluation. Homepage plan table: Goal 10%, Daily Draw-Down Limit 3%, Overall DD Limit 6%, 'Consitensy Score' No. /faq/1-step-challenge/ states the same 10% target, a 3% daily loss limit on the higher of starting equity or balance resetting 00:00 UTC, and a 6% maximum loss limit against initial account size. Reward split 80%, requestable every 14 days after the first trade; minimum payout 1% of initial balance. Minimum trading days conflict (1 vs 3), left null.
Payout rules
The firm publishes no withdrawal METHOD anywhere on its public site: the only payment article (/faq/payment-method/) covers how you PAY for an evaluation (Credit Card, Cryptocurrency), not how you are paid out, so payout_methods is recorded as not published rather than assumed. min_withdrawal is not published as a dollar figure either: the rule is expressed only as a percentage (1% of the initial balance), which differs per account size, and per the never-guess rule it has not been multiplied out. No processing-time SLA is published for payouts. fee_refunded_on_first_payout is left null: Terms clause 7.6(b) refers to a trader who has 'not previously received a refund of their Challenge Fee in earlier payouts', which implies the fee can be refunded through payouts but never states it as a rule or names the payout it applies to.
Trading rules
Three permission booleans are deliberately null rather than guessed. ea_automation_allowed: the site never permits or bans expert advisors as such; Terms clause 5.4(e) only bans software or artificial intelligence used to manipulate or abuse the system or confer an unfair advantage, which is a scoped abuse clause, not a blanket automation ban. hedging_allowed: no general rule is published; clause 5.4(c) bans placing opposite positions simultaneously only where done to manipulate trading circumstances, alone or in collaboration with others. scalping_allowed: only Tick Scalping and HFT are named as prohibited. reset_allowed and reset_fee: the site publishes no reset or retry product anywhere, so no reset policy is asserted. Other verified rules: a 500ms execution delay is applied equally to all traders at all times to prevent latency arbitrage; a breach places the account in view-only mode with all positions closed and pending orders cancelled; a breached account is ineligible for rewards and simulated profits are voided; VPN use is permitted but not to conceal location or evade compliance; the minimum age is 18. Order confirmation arrives by email within 1 hour of purchase and account credentials within a few hours, in some cases up to 24 hours. Leverage detail: the homepage 'up to 1:100' claim is reached only on 2-Step forex. Funded drawdown detail: the Instant Account 5% Maximum Trailing Loss Limit is measured from the highest recorded equity, locks and stops trailing once the account is up 5%, and does not reset after payouts; the 1% Maximum Risk Limit is a floating drawdown.
