Preguntas frecuentes

¿Por qué tengo que hacer un pago único?

Solicitamos un pago por cada evaluación práctica como compromiso financiero para evitar que los candidatos abra múltiples evaluaciones practicas con la intención de aumentar sus probabilidades de éxito mediante la aleatorización, sobrecargando nuestros recursos. También nos ayuda a compensar el riesgo de invertir en talentos emergentes sin un historial a medio o largo plazo.

¿Puedo hacer la evaluación práctica en mi propio broker?

No, la evaluación y gestión real debe tener lugar en el mismo broker y con condiciones de ejecución idénticas.

¿Necesito lograr un aumento del 10% de balance o de capital?

The practical assessment is automatically approved when your equity increases by 10%, meaning that the challenge will end successfully before you have the chance of closing your last winning trades.

¿Cómo se calcula la pérdida máxima?

The Maximum Trailing Drawdown is initially set at 6% and trails (using CLOSED BALANCE - NOT equity!) your account until you have achieved a 6% return in your account. Once you have achieved a 6% return the Maximum Trailing Drawdown no longer trails and is permanently locked in at your starting balance. This allows for more trading flexibility as you have proven yourself as a profitable trader and can now freely compound an account.

Example: If your starting balance is $100,000, you can drawdown to $94,000 before you would violate the Maximum Trailing Drawdown rule. Then for example let's say you take your account to $102,000 in CLOSED BALANCE. This is your new high-water mark, which would mean your new Maximum Trailing Drawdown would be $96,000. Next, let's say you take your account to $106,000 in CLOSED BALANCE, which would be your new high-water mark. At this point your Maximum Trailing Drawdown would be locked in at your starting balance of $100,000. So, regardless of how high your account goes, you would only breach this rule if your account drew back down to $100,000 (note, you can still violate the daily drawdown). For example, if you take your account to $170,000, as long as you do not drawdown more than 5% in any given day, you would only breach if your account equity reaches $100,000.

How is the maximum daily loss calculated?

The Daily Loss Limit is the maximum your account can lose in any given day. Daily Loss Limit is calculated using the previous day balance which resets at 5 PM EST. Unlike other prop firms, we do NOT base our calculations on previous day equity since the balance only model allows you to scale profits without fear of losing your account. The Daily Stop compounds with the increase in your account.

Example: if your prior day's end of day balance (5pm EST) was $100,000, your account would violate the daily stop loss limit if your equity reached $95,000 during the day. ‍If your floating equity is +$5,000 on a $100,000 account, your new-day (5pm EST) max loss is based on your balance from the previous day ($100,000). So, your daily loss limit would still be $95,000.

Can I trade without stop-loss orders?

If your strategy involves trading without stop-loss orders, you can do so by purchasing an affordable add-on on your practical assessment package to cover the extra risk.

¿Suspenderé la evaluación práctica si pongo un trade sin stoploss?

No, no es una falta grave. El sistema comprobará su cuenta a intervalos regulares y cerrará todas las operaciones que no tengan una orden stoploss asociada. Tener operaciones sin stoploss, o que el broker rechace su stoploss, no es un evento descalificatorio pero sí será una molestia.

Once I pass the assessment am I provided with a demo or live account?

Once you pass the Assessment, we provide you with a live account, funded with real capital.

How long does it take to receive my funded account?

We work with a company called Deel to issue trader agreements and process withdrawals of profits. Upon passing your Assessment, you will receive an email from Gabriella from Deel (gabriella@deel.support) with instructions on how to access and complete your Trader Agreement. Once the agreement is completed and supporting KYC documents provided, your Funded account will be created, funded and issued to you typically within 24-48 business hours.

What are the rules for the Funded account?

The rules for the Funded account are exactly the same as your Assessment account. However, with a Funded account, there is no cap on the profits you can generate.

¿Qué es un “high watermark performance fee”?

Un “high watermark performance fee” es un enfoque común al cálculo de comisiones por rendimientos. Significa que el gestor o trader obtendrá un porcentaje de todos los beneficios que genere en la cuenta pero no por beneficios repetidos. En vez de cobrar comisiones operación a operación, cobra comisiones por los incrementos de capital de la cuenta entre una fecha pasada y una presente, siendo el capital presente el punto de referencia para calcular comisiones futuras.

¿Cómo y cuándo cobro mi 75% de “performance fee”?

When you are ready to withdraw your profits, please send an email to our support email with the amount you would like to withdraw. We will then post your gains into your Deel account, which you can withdraw via any of the available methods they offer.

Is there a way to increase my share of the profits?

Yes, indeed. If you fully trust your abilities you can purchase an affordable add-on with your practical assessment, in order to earn 90% of the profits of your funded account.

When can I withdraw profits from my Funded account?

You can withdrawal your profits at any time, once per calendar month. At the time of any withdrawal request, we will also withdraw our share of the profits made, as well. Once you request a withdrawal, your maximum trailing drawdown will be set at your starting balance.

¿Que condiciones de trading hay en las cuentas que voy a operar?

You'll trade an ECN account with 10:1 leverage, tight spreads and commissions of 7$ per round lot. However, you can bring up the leverage to 1:20 by purchasing an affordable add-on.

Can I hold positions over the weekends?

We require all trades to be closed by 3:45pm EST on Friday. Any trades left open after this time will automatically be closed. Note, this is only a soft breach and you will be able to continue trading once the markets reopen. However, if you purchase the weekend carry add-on, you can carry trades during the weekends. If you wish to carry trades over the weekend, purchase the weekend carry add-on with your practical assessment.

¿Por qué debo cerrar mis operaciones antes del fin de semana?

Solicitamos que cierre sus operaciones antes del fin de semana para evitar pérdidas inesperadas de viernes a lunes. Entendemos que los pares de forex no fluctúan demasiado durante el fin de semana pero las criptomonedas y otros activos ofrecidos en la cuenta sí que lo hacen y además pueden conllevar costes muy altos de swap.

¿Cuántas operaciones simultáneas puedo tener en la cuenta?

You can have up to 400 concurrent trades in the account.

¿Necesito seguir las reglas NFA/FIFO en la cuenta?

No, no hace falta. Ni siquiera si vive en Estados Unidos. Se permite hacer hedging en la cuenta.

¿Puedo utilizar indicadores y robots para operar?

Sí, puede. No nos preocupa en absoluto que estrategias particulares utiliza o como de rápido o constantemente genera beneficios. Entendemos que el mercado no ofrece oportunidades cuando uno lo desea ni en todo momento. Lo que más nos importa es que esté utilizando buenas prácticas de gestión de riesgo.

¿Puedo mantener operaciones abiertas durante la noche? ¿Y durante el fin de semana?

Sí, las operaciones se pueden arrastrar durante la noche. Sin embargo no puede arrastrar operaciones durante el fin de semana.

Are there limits to the capital a single trader can have?

We do not limit the capital that we extend traders.

¿Existe alguna penalización por inactividad?

Yes. Please don't stay inactive for over 30 days.

¿Puedo operar desde mi teléfono móvil?

Yes, the broker offers an app for both the iOS and Android platforms.

Can I trade during news?

Yes, you can trade during news.

¿Existe algún coste fijo o algún otro coste adicional?

No, ninguno.

How are taxes handled?

When trading a Funded account for our firm, you are treated as an independent contractor. As a result, you are responsible for any and all taxes on your gains in your country of residence.

No soy trader. ¿Puedo participar como inversor?

Lamentablemente no. Somos una firma privada y cerrada. No admitimos inversores.

How long does it take to receive my funded account?

We work with a company called Deel to issue trader agreements and process withdrawals of profits. Upon passing the assessment, you will receive an email from Deel with instructions on how to access and complete your Trader Agreement. Once the agreement is completed and supporting KYC documents provided, your live account will be created, funded and issued to you typically within 24-48 business hours.

If I have a hard breach in my funded account and there are profits, do I forfeit those profits?

No, you do not. If you have profits in your Funded account at the time of a hard breach, you will still receive your portion of those profits. For example, if you have a $100,000 account and you grow that account to $110,000. Should you then have a hard breach we would close the account. Of the $10,000 in profits, you would be paid your 75% portion ($7,500).
