Frequently Asked Questions

Can I hold trades overnight with a prop firm?
Many prop firms allow overnight holding, but some (especially CFD firms) charge swap fees or restrict it. Futures firms generally allow overnight positions.
Do prop firms have time limits on challenges?
Some firms give you 30-60 days to complete the challenge, while others have no time limit at all. Swing traders should look for unlimited time or 60+ day windows.
What drawdown type is best for swing trading?
Static drawdown or end-of-day trailing is ideal. Intraday trailing drawdown can be problematic for swing traders since it tightens based on unrealized gains.
