When you successfully meet all the objectives of a challenge phase (Phase 1, Phase 2, or Phase 3), your account does not immediately advance to the next stage.
Requirements for Advancing Between Phases
To advance from one phase to the next, you must meet the following criteria:
Profit Target:
Phase 1: Achieve a profit target of 10% of the initial simulated balance.
Phase 2: Achieve a profit target of 5% of the initial simulated balance.
No Open Positions:
Ensure all trades are closed before the daily reset at 00:00 UTC.
Consistency Rule:
Your best single-day profit (measured in UTC) cannot exceed 40% of the total profit required to pass the phase. If this rule is violated, the profit target is dynamically adjusted upward to comply with the rule.
Instead, it enters a review process to ensure that all trading activity fully complies with our rules and standards.
Here’s how it works:
1. Automatic “Pending Review” Status
Once you reach the required profit target and meet all criteria, your account is automatically moved to Pending Review. This process begins only when:
All trades are closed – No open positions or pending orders remain.
The system confirms eligibility at the daily reset (00:00 UTC).
Only after these conditions are met does the system forward your account for review.
2. Review by Our Risk Management Team
Once in “Pending Review,” your account is sent to our professional, international risk management team. They thoroughly analyze:
Your trade history – Ensuring no violations of rules such as drawdown limits or prohibited strategies.
Your behavior and strategy – Confirming you’ve traded in line with our guidelines and responsible trading practices.
This includes verifying adherence to the Consistency Rule, which limits single-day profits to 40% of the total profit target.
This step ensures fairness and upholds our standards for all traders.
3. Review Timeline
This review process typically takes up to 2 business days. Once completed and approved:
If you’ve finished Phase 1 or 2, you’ll receive credentials for your next phase account.
If you’ve finished Phase 3, you’ll continue toward rewards and potentially become eligible for our Career Plan.
Common Issues and Troubleshooting
Why hasn’t my account advanced after meeting the profit target?
Reaching the profit target alone does not guarantee advancement. Ensure that you have:
Closed all trades before the daily reset at 00:00 UTC.
Complied with the Consistency Rule.
Why was my profit target adjusted?
If your best single-day profit exceeds 40% of the original profit target, the system dynamically adjusts the target upward to comply with the Consistency Rule. The new target is calculated as: Best Day Profit × 2.5.
How long does the review process take?
The review process typically takes up to 2 business days after all requirements are met and the system validates your eligibility.
What happens if I violate the rules?
Violations of trading rules, such as exceeding the maximum drawdown or failing to meet the Consistency Rule, may result in disqualification or the need to restart the phase.
