Instant Funded Drawdown Logic

Daily loss limit: 2% per day (based on higher of balance/equity at 00:00 UTC).
Maximum loss limit: 4% trailing from highest recorded equity/balance.
Trailing stops moving once it reaches the starting balance.
Breaching these limits terminates the instant funded account.

Consistency & Risk Management Rules

Consistency Rules

Instant Funded Accounts: Your most profitable day must not exceed 20% of total profits at payout time.
This rule is used to keep trading steady and repeatable, not based on a few lucky spikes.
If the 20% rule is broken, payouts are paused (not a hard breach) until trading becomes more consistent.
Basic 1/2/3 Step Challenges: No consistency rule during evaluation, only drawdown and rule-based checks.

Max Risk per Trade

Traders cannot risk more than 1.5% of the total account balance on a single trade.
If a trade loses more than 1.5% of the account, the profit split may be reduced to 50%.
Multiple violations (5+ trades without stop-loss or over-risk) can lead to a hard breach.

Stop Loss & Trade Duration

In the live/funded phase, a stop loss is mandatory on all trades before they are closed.
Traders get one warning if ≤5 trades are placed without SL; further violations cause a hard breach.
All trades must be held for at least 2 minutes. Closing before 2 minutes is a rule violation.
Five or more high-frequency trades (opened & closed within 1 minute) trigger a warning; repeat = breach.

News Trading, IP & Cheating Rules

News Trading Restriction

No opening or closing trades 2 minutes before or after a red-folder news event.
This includes TPs being hit or pending orders triggering inside the restricted window.
Auto-close on profit target during the restricted period still counts as a violation.
For evaluations: passing solely because of news trades may invalidate the pass.
For funded accounts: profits from violating news trades will not be credited.

IP & Location Rules

Your IP must remain consistent in geographical region (same city / nearby area) across evaluation and live phases.
Switching between Wi-Fi and mobile data is allowed if the region remains the same.
Frequent or large IP location changes can trigger security review or suspension.
If you know you’ll travel or move, contact support beforehand.

Cheating & Prohibited Behaviours

Exploiting demo flaws or toxic flow (HFT, arbitrage, tick scalping, server manipulation).
Copy trading from another trader’s account is strictly prohibited.
Account hedging (long on one account, short on another) to guarantee wins is not allowed.
Exclusive hedging or EA strategies that only hedge the market are prohibited.
EAs are allowed but must follow all rules and not behave as HFT/latency/arbitrage tools.
A “trade” may include multiple entries with similar timing/lot size; tiny random lots do not count.
Serious violations can lead to immediate termination and loss of eligibility for funding.

Core Trading Conditions

Instant access to funding, no evaluation phase.
Up to $50,000 simulated account balance.
Daily loss limit: 2%. Max loss limit: 4% trailing, locking at starting balance.
Leverage: 1:25 FX, 1:10 Indices & Commodities, 1:2 Crypto.

First payout: available 14 days after your first trade.
Subsequent payouts: every 14 days.
Purchase fee refunded after 3 successful payouts.
First withdrawal capped at 4% of starting balance, second at 6%, from third onward traditional NLF model (cap lifted).

Instant Funding Consistency Rule

Most profitable day must not exceed 20% of total profits at payout time.
If violated, payout is deferred; account is not hard breached.
Rule encourages steady growth, not single-lottery trades.

Payout Policy – Step Challenges (1, 2 & 3 Step)

First payout: available 7–14 days after your first trade (depending on payout frequency selected).
Payouts are processed within 24–48 hours after approval.
Minimum withdrawal amount: $125.
First payout: up to 3% of starting balance can be withdrawn.
Second payout: up to 8% of starting balance.
From the 3rd payout onward, the cap is removed and traditional NLF withdrawal rules apply.
Profit split typically starts at 75% and can improve via performance/scaling (per program).

Top-Up Feature

The Top Up feature lets you recover some buffer during drawdown on evaluation or funded accounts (but not on breached accounts).

Example: You start with $10,000 and drop to $9,600 (–4%). You can purchase a $250 top-up to bring balance to $9,850.
This gives extra breathing room without resetting your account or losing progress.
Top-ups cannot exceed the initial account balance and cannot revive breached accounts.

Inactivity & Reapplying

If you do not place at least one trade within 30 days, the account may be closed for inactivity.
Inactivity-closed accounts can sometimes be reinstated on request (case-by-case).
If you breach maximum daily or total loss, your account is flagged, set to read-only, and marked as "Failed" on the dashboard.
To trade again after breach, you must purchase a new evaluation/instant account.
Violations of Terms of Use or abuse of the demo environment can result in manual breach and ban.
