The rules in detail
Breaking a rule can end your challenge. These are the ones traders ask about most; the full terms cover the rest.
Read the full TermsLimits follow your equity
Daily and maximum loss are measured on equity, so open trades count, not just closed ones.
Trade the minimum days
At least 5 trading days in each challenge step. There's no minimum on the funded account, but any account with no trades for 30 days closes.
30 days with no trades
An account with no trades for 30 calendar days closes automatically, with no refund.
No news trading
Orders placed within 5 minutes before or after covered events aren't allowed: macroeconomic releases, central-bank announcements, geopolitical and similar events. A position opened before the window and closed after it isn't a breach.
Your accounts, your connection
Trading from the same IP address isn't allowed. If you share a connection, ask support before you trade.
One account per trader
You can hold one account under this brand unless FX-EDGE approves more in writing. Accounts are personal and can't be shared, sold or gifted.
Your account, your trades
Sharing an account, copy trading and trading on outside trade alerts aren't allowed. Neither are identical or very similar trades across accounts at the same time without written permission.
Bots and automation
Automation isn't banned outright. Software, AI tools or ready-made strategies used to manipulate, get around the rules or gain an unfair advantage are. Ask support about a specific tool.
VPNs and location
Using a VPN or proxy to get around location or compliance limits is a material breach.
Keep the same approach
Using a very different strategy, risk or execution on the funded account than in the challenge isn't allowed.
Up to 5 payouts per funded account
Partial payouts count. After the fifth payout the account closes, and remaining simulated capital and unpaid roll-over are cancelled. To continue, you buy a new challenge.
If a limit is broken
Breaking a mandatory limit ends the account automatically. Forbidden trading can also mean rewards are denied and linked accounts are closed. FX-EDGE's decision is final.
