Instant Funding Plan
1. Instant Funding Overview
Instant Activation • No Challenge Phases • Start Trading Funded Capital Immediately
Start trading our simulated capital immediately after purchase and verification. There are no profit targets to hit before funding.

- •6% Trailing Max Drawdown (high water mark equity)
- •3% Daily Drawdown (high water mark equity)
- •20% Best Day Rule
- •5 Minimum valid trading days (each with at least 0.5% net profit)
- •No profit target required to begin
2. Funded Account Rules
- •Instant Activation:You receive immediate access to your funded simulated account upon successful purchase and account verification. There are no challenge or verification phases to complete.
- •Maximum Drawdown: 6% Trailing (High Water Mark Equity):The maximum you can lose overall is a trailing drawdown that follows your account equity peak. The limit trails upward as new equity highs are achieved. Breaching the 6% trailing maximum drawdown results in immediate account termination.
- •Daily Drawdown: 3% (High Water Mark Equity):Your equity cannot fall more than 3% below the highest equity point reached during the current trading day. The limit resets daily at 00:00 UTC. Floating (unrealized) P&L is included in the calculation.
- •Valid Trading Day Definition:A trading day only counts if you close the day with a minimum net profit of 0.5% of the account balance (after commissions, swaps, spreads, and platform fees). Days with less than +0.5% net profit do not count toward the minimum trading day requirement.
- •Minimum Trading Days Requirement:You must complete a minimum of 5 valid trading days (each achieving at least +0.5% net profit) before you become eligible for your first performance reward.
3. Unique Instant Funding Rules
The maximum you can lose overall is a trailing drawdown calculated from your account equity high water mark. The limit follows your highest equity peak and trails upward with new highs. This rule applies at all times, including weekends (floating losses included).
Each trading day has a 3% loss limit measured from the highest equity point reached during that day. The limit resets daily at server reset time (00:00 UTC). Floating losses are included.
- •Breach:Breaching either the daily or maximum drawdown limit results in immediate account termination with no refund and no grace period.
Your single best profit day cannot account for more than 20% of your total Positive Days' Profit at the time you request a payout. This rule promotes consistent performance.
- •Rule:No single trading day can contribute more than 20% of your total Positive Days' Profit.
- •Not a Breach:Exceeding 20% on a single day does not immediately terminate your account — you must continue trading to grow your total Positive Days' Profit until the best day drops to 20% or below.
- •Calculation:Profits are measured from closed trades at the end of each trading day (00:00 UTC). Losing days do not count toward Positive Days' Profit.
- •0.5% Minimum Profit to Count as a Trading Day:Only days where you achieve a net closed-trade profit of at least 0.5% of the account balance are counted as valid trading days toward the minimum requirement of 5 days.

6. Restricted Trading Practices
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.
