1. Maximum Drawdown – 3%
The maximum overall drawdown is 3% of the account size.
If the account equity falls below the maximum permitted drawdown at any time, the account will be considered breached and will be terminated.
Example:
Account Size: $10,000
Maximum Drawdown: 3% = $300
If the account equity reaches or falls below the maximum drawdown level, the account will be breached.
There is NO Daily Drawdown Limit on the BOLT ON STRIODS ACC

2. Account Validity - 30 Days
The validity of the Instant Account is 30 days from the first executed trade.
Traders must operate and manage the account within this period
_________________________________________________________
3. Payout
Minimum Payout Amount to request is 1 percent of the account size.
Avoid trading after requesting payout.
• Profit Split - 70/30
Note :- { Your account must be in profit compared to its starting balance for the payout to be processed. No payouts can be processed while your account is in drawdown. Kindly ensure your account balance remains above the starting balance at the time of payout processing.}

4 .Max Floating Loss
During the Funded Stage, a 1% Maximum Floating Loss rule is strictly enforced.
What this means:
Your open trades (floating P&L) must never exceed a 1% loss of your funded account balance at any moment.
2 Positions running at the same time will be considered as a single trade.
If your floating loss reaches or goes beyond 1%, it is considered a hard breach, and the account will be immediately closed, even if the trade later recovers.
Example
Funded Account Size: $3,000
1% Maximum Floating Loss: $30
If at any point your open positions show a floating loss of -$30 or more, this results in a hard breach.

5. Layering
Traders are not allowed to open 3 or more positions and lot size simultaneously without placing a stop loss. This practice , known as "layering trades" is considered a violation of our risk management policies .
Traders may not hold more than two open positions on the same instrument at any given time. This practice, known as layering, is not permitted.
Adding positions to a trade that is already in drawdown is strictly prohibited. Any strategy intended to recover losses through additional entries, including averaging down, grid trading, or martingale behavior, is not allowed.
This is considered as a soft breach in challenge phases and hard breach in funded phase and instant accounts .

6. News Trading
During the Funded Phase, traders are not allowed to hold or execute trades during news events, unless specific timing conditions are met.
News Trading Restriction Window
Trades must NOT be opened or closed within:
• 10 minutes before a news event
• 10 minutes after the news event
This creates a 20-minute restricted window around each news release.
This rule applies to all trade types, including:
• Manual trades
• Pending orders
• Stop loss orders
• Take profit orders
During news speeches, the restriction window extends:
10 minutes before the speech
Until 10 minutes after the speech ends
Any trade executed within this restricted window will be considered a violation.
Example
High-impact news time: 3:00 PM
Restricted window: 2:50 PM – 3:10 PM
❌ Trade opened at 2:55 PM → Violation
❌ Trade closed at 3:05 PM → Violation
Important Notes
All trades are reviewed by the Risk Management Team during phase completion and payouts.
Forex Factory is used as the official news calendar.
If a violation occurs, the trader is fully responsible, even if it was unintentional.
News trading violations may result in account breach or action.
