Firm Rules

Max Contract Size Allowed per Account Size

On a $25,000 account, traders are limited to holding a maximum of 3 mini contracts or 30 micro contracts at any given time.

News Trading

Traders cannot open new positions or maintain orders in the queue during the two-minute window before and after major economic data releases. This restriction applies to all high-impact news events.

Copy Trading Rule

Automated trade copying from your independent trading accounts into your TradeDay funded account is permitted without restriction.

Consistency Rule

Daily profits cannot exceed 30% of the overall profit target within a single trading session. This rule does not apply once a trader has been funded and is trading live accounts.

Minimum of 5 Days Objective

Traders must complete at least five separate trading days during evaluation, though these days do not need to be consecutive. Once profit and consistency targets are met, traders must maintain their established trading style without resorting to micro-trading tactics.

Expert Advisors

Custom expert advisors developed by the trader are acceptable, but purchasing and deploying third-party algorithmic software or commercial bots is prohibited. If multiple accounts exhibit identical trading patterns, all associated accounts will be terminated.

Gap Trading

Deliberately entering trades during market gaps or in illiquid conditions to capitalize on isolated price fills or anomalies is not permitted.

Hedging Prohibited

Simultaneously maintaining long positions in one account while holding short positions in another account on the identical financial instrument violates firm policy.

VPN Usage

Using virtual private networks or virtual private servers to conceal your actual trading location or jurisdiction is strictly forbidden.

Exploiting System Errors

Traders are prohibited from executing strategies designed to exploit technical glitches, pricing display errors, or system latency for trading advantage.

Live Funded Account Rule

Each trader may maintain only one active funded live account at any time. During a funded account tenure, purchasing or opening additional challenge accounts is not permitted.

Inactivity Rule

Accounts showing no trading activity for 45 consecutive days without explicit prior approval will be automatically closed and classified as dormant.
