The overall maximum drawdown limit is 10% of the initial account balance.
Exceeding this limit will result in challenge failure.
For the Two-Phase Challenge, the maximum daily drawdown is 5% of the equity at the end of the previous trading day.
This limit helps promote consistent risk management and disciplined trading behavior.
No, both Phase 1 and Phase 2 have no time limits — you can complete them at your own pace.
- Phase 1: 10% profit target
- Phase 2: 8% profit target
Upon successful completion of any phase, your account will be reviewed. After verification, you will either gain access to the next phase or receive a funded account.
The payout ratio is up to 90%, depending on the frequency and order of your payouts.
For full details, please refer to the Conditions and Rules section.
The one-time fee depends on the funded account size and is fully refundable with your first payout.
- $10,000 account — $119
- $25,000 account — $229
- $50,000 account — $375
- $100,000 account — $599
Both the overall and daily drawdown (loss) limits must be strictly followed, regardless of whether your account is in profit. These limits are based on your account's equity and balance, meaning that surpassing the daily loss limit will still be considered a rule violation, even if you have previously made profits.
For instance, if your account begins with $100,000 and the daily drawdown (loss) limit is 5%, you cannot lose more than $5,000 in a single day. No matter how much profit you have accumulated, if your account’s equity or balance falls below $95,000 at any point during the day, it will be considered a breach of the daily loss rule.
- Yes, news trading is allowed in all phases of the program, but specific restrictions apply only in the Funded Phase during high-impact news events (typically marked with red folders).
- In the Funded Phase, traders are not permitted to open trades (market or limit orders) or close trades via Take Profit (TP) or Stop Loss (SL) orders within 5 minutes before and after the scheduled announcement.
- These restrictions do not apply in the Evaluation Phase(s), where news trading is fully permitted.
- A calendar of high-impact news events is available in the Client Area and can also be accessed here.
- Compliance with this rule during the Funded Phase is mandatory to support effective risk management and prevent violations.
- In the Funded Phase, opening, closing, or modifying positions is strictly prohibited within the 5-minute window before and after any high-impact news event (typically marked with red folders).
- During the Evaluation Phase(s), news trading is fully allowed. You may open, modify, or close positions around news events without any restrictions while working toward a funded account.
- This rule is enforced only in the Funded Phase to protect capital from increased volatility and to support consistent risk management for all funded traders.
You must begin your challenge within 3 months from the date of purchase.
If you do not start the challenge within this timeframe, it will expire and be marked as failed.
- Holding trades over the weekend is allowed only during the Evaluation Phase.

Octrado has specific rules to prevent the exploitation of platform inefficiencies and to ensure responsible trading practices. These rules also prohibit gambling-like practices, including excessive risk-taking without a clear strategy, overleveraging with the intent of making quick profits, and engaging in trades that resemble pure speculation rather than informed decision-making. The platform enforces these policies to maintain a fair-trading environment and protect traders from unsustainable behaviours that could lead to significant financial losses. Certain activities are prohibited, including:
1. Prohibited Trading Strategies
Practices such as gap trading, high-frequency trading (HFT), server spamming, latency arbitrage, and hedge arbitrage are strictly forbidden. These strategies aim to exploit platform inefficiencies and violate our terms.
2. Third-Party Copy Trading and Account Management
Using third-party vendors for copy trading or account management is not allowed and will result in account termination. You must trade independently, and any external management of your account is against our guidelines.
3. Use of Expert Advisors (EAs)
While third-party Expert Advisors are allowed, they can only be used as trade or risk management tools. EAs that make trading decisions or mimic another trader’s strategy will violate our Terms of Service, potentially leading to declined payout requests.
4. Risk Management Requirements
Traders must adhere to responsible risk management practices.
Engaging in risky behaviours like:
· Opening significantly larger positions compared to previous trades
· Trading with an unusually high or low number of positions compared to your typical strategy,
· Deliberately trading during volatile news events, is not permitted and can result in account termination.
These guidelines ensure a fair and responsible trading environment. Octrado reserves the right to review and decide if a trading strategy violates these terms.
