Trading Rules
Each firm’s daily and maximum loss limits, as the firm sets them. Each firm’s profile says how its limits are measured.
| 2 firms | ||
|---|---|---|
| Daily loss limitAcross the firm's programs | Not listed | 3% to 5% |
| Max loss limitAcross the firm's programs | Not listed | 6% to 10% |
| Daily drawdown | No daily loss limit is set in the Axi Select Program Rules. | Calculated on the previous day's closing balance (initial balance on day one): 3% on 1 Step Prime and Direct, 5% on 2 Step Prime and 2 Step Pro (4% at $200K). |
| Max drawdown | Maximum loss of 7% on the Allocation Account at every stage from Seed to Pro 500, and 10% at Pro M, measured in real time including open positions and fixed at the Allocation Account balance at the start of the stage, so it does not trail. Breaching it closes open Allocation Account positions; at Incubation and Acceleration the account goes into a one week quarantine, while at Seed and the Pro stages the account is removed and the trader restarts from Seed. A third quarantine also sends the trader back to Seed. | Static on 1 Step Prime (6%), 2 Step Prime and 2 Step Pro (10%, or 8% at $200K), measured on balance or equity from the initial balance. Direct Account uses a 7% trailing drawdown. |
| Minimum trading days | Minimum stage duration of 30 days at Seed and 60 days at Incubation, Acceleration, Pro and Pro 500, with 20, 40 or 50 trades required per stage. | 1 Step Prime: 2 days. 2 Step Prime: 3 days per phase. 2 Step Pro: 2 days per phase. Payouts: 3 profitable days (0.5%) in 14 days on the fortnightly cycle, 7 in 30 days on the monthly cycle. |
| Time limit | No maximum time limit is stated. | Unlimited. At least one trade every 30 calendar days to avoid inactivity closure. |
| News trading | The program rules and terms do not mention a news trading restriction. | Allowed without restriction on 1 Step Prime and 2 Step Prime (challenge and funded) and on 2 Step Pro challenges. Funded 2 Step Pro and Direct accounts cannot open or close trades on affected instruments from 5 minutes before to 5 minutes after high impact news, including SL and TP fills. |
| Overnight and weekends | No holding restriction is stated, but profit share is only paid when the Allocation Account has no open positions at the end of the calendar month; keeping a position open defers the payout. | Overnight holding allowed on all accounts. Weekend holding allowed on Prime accounts and 2 Step Pro challenges, not on funded 2 Step Pro or Direct accounts. |
| EAs and copy trading | Own Expert Advisors are allowed. An EA built by someone else, or supplied to others, may only generate signals and trades must be placed manually. Automated copy trading and copying another trader's trades are prohibited. Scalping is prohibited and can lead to removal from the program. | EAs and bots allowed only on MT5 with the paid EA add on, not on cTrader, Match Trader, TradeLocker or Direct accounts; the EA strategy must be declared and identical EA setups may be grouped for allocation. Copy trading only between your own Hola Prime funded accounts. |
| Consistency rule | No separate consistency rule. Progression depends on the Edge Score, a weighted measure of skill, risk and consistency adjusted for experience. | On demand payout option: 40% consistency and 2% minimum total profit. Direct Account: 20% (largest winning day cannot exceed 20% of total profit). None on the fortnightly or monthly cycles. |
Payouts

| 2 firms | ||
|---|---|---|
| Profit split | 0% at Seed, 40% at Incubation, 50% at Acceleration, 60% at Pro, 70% at Pro 500 and 80% at Pro M | Chosen at purchase: 80% fortnightly, 95% monthly, 80% on demand; Direct Account 80% or 90% fortnightly. |
| First payout | Profit share starts at Incubation, which requires completing Seed (at least 30 days, 20 unique trades, a 7% Allocation Account gain), an Edge Score of 60 and $1,000 of equity. A payment is made after a calendar month in which the Allocation Account ends above its starting amount with no open positions. Withdrawing from the Axi Select account during the month forfeits that month's profit share. | Once the selected cycle's conditions, KYC, agreement and a mandatory KYC interview are complete; compliance review up to 24 business hours, then processed within 1 hour. A 2.5% fee applies (minimum $25 wire and Rise, $5 crypto). |
| Payout frequency | Monthly, credited automatically on the first day of each calendar month | Fixed at purchase: fortnightly, monthly or on demand; the next date counts from the latest trade opened after the previous payout. |
| Minimum payout | Not listed | $50 by bank wire or crypto, $500 via Rise (excluding the firm's share) |
| Payout methods | Credited to the trader's Axi Select trading account, then withdrawn through Axi's standard withdrawal methods | Bank wire, Crypto (BTC, USDC, ETH, USDT), Rise (bank and crypto) |

Minimum equity rises from $500 to $20,000 and the Edge Score requirement from 50 to 90. Deposits made during a stage do not raise the allocation. | After a minimum 4 month cycle with 10% net profit, at least 2 profitable months, 2 payouts and a positive balance: +25% of initial balance, then +40% (Alpha Prime), then +50% per subsequent scaling, up to $4,000,000. |
