Traders Launch

• A 40% consistency rule applies during the challenge phase only: profit from a single trading day must not exceed 40% of the profit target.
• No consistency rule applies once funded.

Automated Trading Strategies:

• Expert Advisors (EAs) are allowed but require pre-approval.

Copy Trading:

• Allowed with Volumetrica Trade Copier, DeepCharts web copier and 3rd party copying softwares

Trading Rules:

• No stop-loss requirements. News trading is allowed.
• Consistency Rule (40%): Profits from a single trading day must not exceed 40% of the profit target during the challenge.

Minimum Trading Days:

• Traders must complete at least 3 trading days during the evaluation stage.

Inactivity Rules:

• During the evaluation phase, traders must place at least 1 trade per week to remain active. During evaluation: missing a week deactivates your account. In your Simfunded account: missing a week pauses it — you remain eligible for profits and payouts but need to reactivate.

DCA/Martingale Rule:

• You can average into a position up to 5 executions maximum on the same symbol. Martingale-style sizing — where you increase position size specifically to recover losses — is prohibited.

Hedging:

• Hedging is not permitted. This includes hedging the same instrument across multiple accounts, such as being long NQ in one account and short NQ in another; hedging through correlated instruments, such as being long NQ and short ES; and coordinating with another trader or group of traders to create offsetting positions across separate accounts. This rule applies whether the accounts belong to the same trader or to different traders acting together.
