The questions traders actually ask

No. Every account size on this site is a virtual balance inside a simulated environment. Prices come from live market data, but no order of yours reaches a real market and no real capital of yours is at risk.

Two things: whether you reach the profit target, and whether you stay inside the published limits while doing it — maximum loss and daily drawdown, plus the minimum trading days your plan sets. A single lucky run that breaks a limit does not pass.

The assessment ends. The limits are enforced by the terminal, so a breach is not a matter of interpretation after the fact — you can see how close you are to each limit while you trade.

There is no time limit on any route. The assessment ends when you meet the objectives or breach a limit, not when a clock runs out. You can trade at the pace your method actually needs.

Completing an assessment makes you eligible to request a reward under the terms of the agreement you accept before starting. The amount, the schedule and the conditions are set out in that document. We do not put numbers on a marketing page that the agreement would then have to qualify.

Our own browser-based terminal, on the same account you signed up with. Nothing to install, no separate login, no third-party bridge. Forex, metals, indices, crypto and energies are available.

Automated tools are allowed within the limits set out in the rules. What is not allowed is anything that exploits the simulation rather than the market — latency abuse, tick manipulation, group trading designed to guarantee a pass, and similar practices are listed in full on the rules page.

A short restricted period around high-impact economic releases, applied on master-stage accounts where the plan sets it — not during the assessment itself. It exists because execution during those minutes says more about the data feed than about your trading. The window and the affected releases are listed in the rules.

Yes on the routes where the rule set permits it. Where a route restricts it, the restriction is shown on the challenge card before you pay, not discovered afterwards.

The assessment fee is charged for access to the assessment. Whether and when it is refundable is set out in the terms you accept at checkout. Read that section before paying — it is short and it is the part people most often skip.

Availability depends on where you are and on the rules we have to follow there. The check happens at sign-up. If you want to know before creating an account, ask support.

We collect what is needed to run an account and meet our obligations, and no more. What is collected, why, and how long it is kept is described on the privacy page.
