Pick a topic below — every answer is one tap away.
What everyone's asking this week — how payouts work, what you can trade, and how fast your account can grow.
For One-Phase accounts: Your first withdrawal is available instantly once you generate profit at the funded stage. The minimum withdrawal is 1% of your starting balance, and your best trading day must not exceed 60% of your total profit.
For Instant accounts: Your first payout is available 7 days after your first trade. After that, you can withdraw every 5 days following a new trade.
We offer both RISE withdrawals and direct crypto withdrawals. Crypto withdrawals are processed in USDC (ERC-20) and are typically faster, with less KYC required.
You can trade all of the following with us:
Available on IF Micro Crypto & One-Phase Crypto accounts, plus: BNB, TRON, Cosmos, Axie Infinity, Basic Attention Token, Chromia, Compound, Curve DAO, Dash, Enjin, EOS, Algory, Graph, 1inch, Kyber Network, Loopring, Maker, Near Protocol, Skale, Synthetix, Solar, Stellar Lumens and Tezos.
Scaling works the same across all challenge formats — including One-Phase and Instant accounts. After passing your challenge, you can increase your balance up to 100% of your original starting balance by growing your account by at least 8% over a 60-day period. Each time you achieve this, you'll receive a 50% increase to your starting balance.
You can repeat this process every 60 days, gradually increasing your account size up to double the original amount.
Payouts, withdrawal methods, and everything else standing between you and your profits.
Yes. We maintain a transparent payout system that you can verify yourself — track every crypto payout directly on-chain, or view payout confirmations from successful traders in our community.
On-Demand Payouts let you withdraw profits whenever you choose — no need to wait for scheduled payout dates. On average, traders receive their withdrawals in about half the time compared to the previous payout system. This feature offers flexibility while promoting responsible risk management.
If you meet the criteria below, you can request a payout at any time.
To qualify for a payout, simply follow these two rules:
Rule 1 — Best day limit: for One-Phase challenges, your best trading day must not account for more than 60% of your total profit.
Rule 2 — Minimum profit: for One-Phase challenges, your total net profit for a payout must reach at least 1% of your starting balance or $50 — whichever is larger.
Yes, you are responsible for paying taxes on your trading profits in accordance with the tax laws of your country. For tailored guidance, consult a qualified tax professional familiar with your local laws.
Everything tradable, and everything you need to know to trade it the right way.
Everything you need to know about holding trades over the weekend.
Weekend holding means keeping one or more trades open when the market closes on Friday and carrying them into the following week. Swing trading is a style that relies on this — holding positions for days or weeks to capture larger price moves rather than closing everything within a single session.
Yes — feel free to hold over the weekend without any restrictions. Keep in mind overnight holding charges (swap) will still apply.
Holding trades over the weekend carries additional market risk, since prices can gap when markets reopen on Monday. Any resulting losses still count toward your drawdown limits as normal, so it's important to size positions carefully when holding over weekends.
Standard leverage across all programs:
The Daily Loss Limit is the maximum amount you can lose in a single trading day.
The Daily Loss Limit is recalculated every day at Market Rollover, 17:00 EST.
Instant Funding uses whichever is higher between your Balance and Equity at 17:00 EST to calculate your Daily Loss Limit.
Your Equity and Balance are monitored daily. If either falls below the Daily Loss Limit, the account is breached.
Not permittedHigh-frequency trading is not permitted on our platform. While HFT strategies might aim for quick profits, they can lead to unfair advantages — which goes against our commitment to fair trading.
To ensure fair and orderly trading, we apply a restriction window around major economic releases. During this time, the following actions are blocked on affected instruments:
We consider high-impact (red news) events listed on FX Factory and/or FX Street as major news events.
This table may not include all high-impact events. All major/red-folder news events (FX Factory and/or FXStreet) are tradable only within the designated 8-minute window with the news trading add-on.

To ensure fairness and protect the integrity of our platform, certain trading activities are not allowed. These policies exist to create a transparent and supportive environment for all traders.
Exploiting platform glitches, such as incorrect price quotes or delayed updates, is strictly prohibited. Reporting these issues helps us resolve them quickly and ensures accurate pricing.
Both disrupt the evaluation of individual performance and compromise fairness, so they're strictly prohibited.
Each account must reflect individual trading decisions. This means:
Publicly available third-party Expert Advisors, algorithms, or bots are not permitted. We encourage traders to develop their own unique strategies and only support first-party automated tools.
Opening multiple funded or challenge accounts in quick succession is prohibited, including repetitive account losses from high-risk trading and starting multiple new challenges within a short period of time.
Allowed on challengesMartingale trading is allowed for all challenges and IF Micro accounts, including the funded stage. For Instant Funding accounts, traders can add to losing positions but must avoid continuously doubling lot sizes after losses.
Martingale is a strategy where traders increase their positional notional volume after each trade, aiming to recover previous losses or amplify winnings on subsequent trades — essentially doubling down after a losing trade.
Commission-free accounts have no commissions. The following commissions apply exclusively to RAW spread accounts:
Other-currency indices vary slightly with the interest and exchange rates of their base currency.
You have the freedom to open long and short positions simultaneously on the same market within a single account. However, taking opposite positions across multiple accounts is considered cheating and strictly prohibited — those accounts will be closed without a refund.
One-Phase or Instant? Compare risk limits, targets, and payout speed side-by-side.
| At a glance | One-Phase | Instant Program |
|---|---|---|
| Daily Loss Limit | 5% of account value | 4% of account value |
| Static Drawdown | 12% of starting balance | 8% of starting balance |
| Profit Target | 8% of starting balance | No profit target — funded from the start |
| Payouts | On-demand, once conditions are met | First payout after 7 days, then every 5 days |
| Inactivity | Closed after 90 days with no trades | Closed after 90 days with no trades |
You may not lose more than 5% of your account value per day. At 17:00 EST (market rollover), your Daily Drawdown Limit is recalculated based on the higher of your Balance (excluding open trades) or your Equity (including open trades).
Your maximum loss is limited to 12% of your starting balance.
You may not risk more than 50% of the account's starting daily drawdown at any time in one trade idea. A trade idea includes all open positions on the same instrument in the same direction (Buy or Sell). Closing and reopening a position in the same direction on the same instrument within 10 minutes is treated as the same trade idea and does not reset the limit.
To pass the One-Phase Challenge, you must reach an 8% profit based on your starting balance.
You must also trade for at least 2 separate days. There is no maximum time limit — complete the challenge at your own pace.
One-Phase offers on-demand payouts — you can withdraw your profit as soon as you meet these conditions:
Once these are met, you can request a payout at any time from your dashboard.
How to request a withdrawal:
If no trades are placed within 90 days of your account purchase, or 90 days after your last trade, your account will be automatically closed.
