1-Step Evaluation

Complete a single evaluation phase with strict risk limits to qualify for a Qualified Performance Account. Once you achieve the Qualified Performance Phase, you trade our simulated capital and keep up to 90% of performance rewards under our sustainable trading rules.

• 10%  Profit target
• 6%  Hybrid max drawdown (trailing from peak)
• No minimum  Trading days required

• •
  Profit Target:10% net closed-trade profit only (after commissions, swaps, spreads, and platform fees). Unrealised P&L does not count.
• •
  No Minimum Trading Days:There is no minimum number of trading days required. You may complete the evaluation at your own pace without a time constraint.
• •
  Maximum Daily Loss:4% measured from the highest equity peak of the trading day (floating losses included). Daily reset at 00:00 server time.
• •
  Maximum Overall Drawdown:6% hybrid trailing from peak equity — unique to this plan. See Section 3 for full details.
• •
  50% Best Day Rule:Unique to 1-Step — your single best profit day cannot exceed 50% of your total profit target. See Section 3 for full details.

• •
  Maximum Daily Drawdown:4% of your daily opening equity. Resets each trading day at 00:00 server time. Floating losses are included in the calculation.
• •
  Breach:Either limit breached = immediate evaluation failure with no refund. No grace period.

• •
  Rule:No single trading day can contribute more than 50% of your total Positive Days' Profit at the point you hit the 10% target.
• •
  Not a Breach:Exceeding 50% on a single day does not immediately fail your evaluation — you must simply keep trading to grow your total Positive Days' Profit until the Best Day drops to ≤50%.
• •
  Calculation:Profits are measured from closed trades at the end of each trading day (00:00 CE(S)T). Losing days do not count toward Positive Days' Profit.

Traders must rely on genuine market analysis and independent skills. The following practices are strictly prohibited:

(1) System Exploitation and Unfair Advantages

• Comprehensive Arbitrage: Capitalizing on pricing discrepancies, latency issues, or delayed data feeds (including latency, triangular, statistical, spatial, and rollover arbitrage).
• High-Frequency Trading (HFT): Deploying ultra-fast algorithms designed to exploit minor technological inefficiencies rather than real market movements.
• Glitch Exploitation: Knowingly or unknowingly executing trades based on platform errors, frozen price feeds, or inaccurate quotes.
• Tick Scalping & Rollover Abuse: Rapid-fire trading to profit from single-tick fluctuations or EAs programmed to exploit low-liquidity spreads during rollover periods.
• News Trading Addon: Accounts that purchase the News Trading Addon are granted full permission to engage in news trading without any restrictions, time windows, profit-removal penalties, or breach risk tied to news events.

(2) Collusion and Third-Party Management

• Account Sharing and Reselling: Allowing any third party to access, trade, or manage your account. Selling or transferring a Qualified Performance account is banned.
• Account Management Services: Utilizing "Pass Your Challenge" services or hiring third-party entities to trade on your behalf.
• Coordinated Group Trading: Collaborating with other traders to execute identical setups or opening opposing positions across accounts.
• IP and Coordination Rules: Accounts sharing IPs, hardware IDs, or entering identical positions within a tight time window will be flagged for manual review.
• Mass-Distributed EAs and Copy Trading: Commercially available or third-party EAs that result in multiple accounts executing identical trades will be flagged as copy trading / coordinated trading.

(3) Unrealistic Market Behavior and Poor Risk Management

• News Trading (Tiered Breach Model – Qualified Performance accounts only): ±2-minute restricted window around high-impact events.
  • First Violation: Removal of all profits generated from the restricted window.
  • Second Violation: Hard breach → immediate account termination and permanent closure.
• News Bracketing and Gap Trading: Straddling news events or opening positions within 60 minutes of market close and holding through reopen is banned.
• One-Sided Bets and Gambling: Massive unanalyzed positions or intentionally blowing an account ("account rolling").

(4) Technical Platform Abuse

• Server Hyperactivity: Bots or EAs that exceed 2,000 server requests per 24 hours.
• Order Book Spamming: Fragmenting trades into micro-lots to circumvent margin limits or stress-test the platform.
