Non-directional bracket trading prohibited
Placing orders on both sides of the market to catch a lucky windfall is explicitly banned. This includes any strategy where opposing stop/limit orders are left open simultaneously (e.g., straddles around news events). Only directional trading is allowed.
Stop losses required on all trades
All trades must have either pending or mental stop losses and a well-defined risk management strategy. Trading without stop losses is a prohibited activity. Additionally, high-risk strategies with disproportionate risk (e.g., 5-tick TP with 150-tick SL) are not allowed.
30-day inactivity rule
Must record at least two $50 net profit days within 30 consecutive calendar days or the PA is closed (parameters stated on the Intraday PA FAQ; the EOD PA page lists the inactivity rule without parameters).
No automation allowed
All rewards are for human traders only. Bots, algorithms, and automated systems are completely prohibited.
Max 6 payouts per Performance Account
Each Performance Account (both EOD and Intraday) is limited to exactly 6 payouts total, regardless of total profit generated. After 6 payouts the PA is closed and you must pass a new evaluation to get another PA. Max payout amounts per request increase with each payout number (e.g., 25K: $1K per payout; 150K: $2.5K to $5K).
Using trailing threshold as a stop loss is banned
Traders are prohibited from using the account full drawdown threshold as a stop-loss mechanism to absorb large losses leading to account liquidation. This is considered an unsustainable strategy.
