Overview: Futures Instant Model

Updated over 3 weeks ago

Our Instant Model offers direct access to a Funded account, giving you the chance to start generating profits right away. This is an overview of the most important rules you must follow. You will also find the requirements to apply for a payout.


Trading Rules

End-Of-Day Trailing Drawdown Limit

The EOD Trailing Drawdown Limit is the total amount your balance/equity can decrease. If the account balance increases by the end of the day, the drawdown limit adjusts upward. If the account balance decreases, the drawdown remains unchanged.

Exceeding this limit will result in account termination.

The EOD Trailing Drawdown locks when profits exceed the drawdown limit by $100. For example, in a $50,000 account with a $2,000 drawdown, once profits reach $2,600, the drawdown locks at $50,100.

Contracts

  • A $25K account can trade up to 1 Minis (10 Micros).

  • A $50K account can trade up to 5 Minis (50 Micros).

  • A $100K account can trade up to 10 Minis (50 Micros).

  • A $150K account can trade up to 15 Minis (50 Micros).

Swing Trading and Trading Hours

All positions must be closed BEFORE 4:59 PM EST Monday through Friday, before the market closes. Any open positions will be automatically closed at 4:59 PM ET. This will not result in a fail or loss of account.

Starting at 6:00 PM EST, Monday through Thursday and on Sunday evening, you can start placing trades again.

This means that you are not able to swing trade or hold positions over multiple days.

News Trading

You are allowed to trade any news events.
