At The Skilled Trader, we value thoughtful and professional trading execution.
To ensure trades reflect genuine market decisions rather than high-frequency or exploitative behavior, a minimum trade duration applies to all accounts.

  • For both evaluation and funded accounts, each trade must be held for a minimum of 3 minutes.

  • For a trading day to count as valid, at least one position must remain open for 3 minutes or longer.

This policy encourages traders to act with precision, patience, and proper risk management, aligning with the standards of real institutional trading environments.
