Swing Two-Step Challenge
After successfully passing the Swing Two-Step Challenge, your account is automatically upgraded to a Funded Account. Below are the rules applicable during both the Challenge and Funded stages.
Profit Target (Swing Two-Step Challenge Only)
- Phase 1 Target: Achieve an 8% profit target using closed positions only; open trades do not count.
- Phase 2 Target: After passing Phase 1, reach a 5% profit target in Phase 2.
- Trade Limit: No single trade may generate more than 70% of the Profit Target.
- Funded Account: Once you transition to a Funded Account, there is no profit target.
Drawdown Limits
- Maximum Drawdown: 10%, based on initial account balance (no trailing). This rule remains active in the Funded Account.
- Daily Drawdown: 5%, calculated from equity based on your previous day’s balance. A violation occurs if your equity drops below this level due to open trades. This rule continues in the Funded Account.
Time Constraints
- Challenge Duration: There is no time limit to complete either phase of the Swing Two-Step Challenge. Trade at your own pace.
Profit Split (Funded Account)
- Standard Split: Enjoy a profit split of 85%.
Payouts (Funded Account)

Minimum Trading Days

Holding Positions
- Policy: ✅ You are allowed to hold positions overnight and over the weekend on both the Challenge and Funded Accounts.
News Trading
- Policy: ✅ You are allowed to trade during high-impact news events — including entering, exiting, and holding trades before, during, and after major economic releases.
Inactivity Rule
- Policy: If there is no meaningful trading activity for 30 consecutive days, the account becomes inactive.
