For funded accounts, any profit from a trade that is open for less than the minimum holding time is considered invalid and is removed when a payout is requested.
The minimum holding time depends on when the account was purchased:
Purchased before 6 October 2026 (00:00 UTC): 2 minutes (120 seconds)
Purchased from 6 October 2026 (00:00 UTC) onward: 1 minute (60 seconds)
A funded account follows the purchase date of the challenge it came from. If you reset a challenge that was purchased before 6 October 2026, it stays at 2 minutes, even if the reset happens after that date.
Any losses from trades closed before the minimum holding time remain and are the trader's responsibility.
This means you may open and close positions faster than the minimum holding time if you wish. Profits from those trades are not included in payout calculations, while losses still count.
Having profits removed for this reason is not a breach or violation of funded account rules. It only affects the payout amount.
This rule applies only to funded accounts and does not affect evaluation (challenge) accounts.
This policy helps ensure fair trading conditions and aligns with the liquidity and risk management standards required for consistent and sustainable trading across all funded traders.
