The Trading Pit

Max DD Type

CFD Prime: static from the starting balance on most sizes; on one phase $100K and $200K and two phase $100K accounts bought from 29 April 2026 it trails the end of day closed balance until it reaches the starting balance, then stays fixed. CFDs Instant: 6% trailing on the highest balance until it reaches the starting balance, then fixed.

Daily DD Type

CFD Prime: balance based, recalculated at 16:15 CT from the previous day's closing balance, commissions included; the account is breached if equity falls below the limit. 3% on one phase, 5% on two phase up to $20K, 4% on two phase $50K and $100K. CFDs Instant: no daily drawdown.

News Trading

Allowed on CFD Prime accounts up to $50K and on all CFDs Instant accounts. On Prime $100K and $200K accounts, opening trades or having pending orders triggered within 2 minutes before or after high impact news is prohibited in both challenge and earning phases; positions opened earlier may be closed.

EAs/Copy

Own EAs allowed provided they do not copy signals that are not the trader's own, use latency, reverse or hedge arbitrage, HFT or emulators, or trade the news window on Prime $100K and $200K accounts. Copy trading allowed only between CFD accounts owned by the same user (including from the trader's own external master account); copying between different clients or from third party signals is prohibited. Hedging across accounts prohibited.

Holding Restrictions

Overnight and weekend holding allowed on CFD Prime accounts. CFDs Instant allows weekend holding except commodities, energies, metals and crypto, which are closed automatically 10 minutes before the Friday close.

Consistency Rule

CFD Prime: 50% Best Day rule (best day no more than 50% of positive days' profit) on one phase $100K and $200K accounts created from 6 July 2026, in challenge and earning phases; exceeding it is not a breach, the trader keeps trading. CFDs Instant: best day may not exceed 30% ($5K to $20K), 25% ($50K) or 20% ($100K) of total profit before a payout.

Minimum Trading Days

CFD Prime challenge builder lists 3 minimum trading days for $5K to $200K accounts and 3 minimum profitable days (each at least 0.5% of initial balance) for $2.5K accounts. Earning phase: 3 trading days on one phase $100K and $200K accounts created from 6 July 2026; older help articles cite 3 profitable days or 5 trading days depending on purchase date.

Time Limit

Unlimited on CFD challenges; any account with no new trade for 21 consecutive days is breached for inactivity

Scaling Plan

CFD Prime: account balance increases by 25% once the earning account has been active at least two months, has received at least two payouts and has made at least 10% total profit; every fourth scale up resets the base for the next 25% steps. Active Prime earning accounts are limited to eight with a combined initial balance of $400,000. No scaling plan is listed for CFDs Instant, and each user may hold at most two Instant accounts.
