11 hidden rules you should know before you buy

Terms that can cost you an account or a payout after you have already paid. Hidden means easy to miss, not concealed. The firm publishes every one of these, usually in its terms or FAQ rather than on its pricing page. Tap a rule to read it, with the page we read it on and the date.

Payout restrictions2

  1. 01Instant funding does not mean an instant payoutBlocks the payout

    The Funded Trader Programme hands you a live account with no evaluation, but the money is still gated: "Payouts eligibility and progression are based on reaching a 10% profit mark." Until the account is 10% up, there is nothing to withdraw. Their own guide is explicit that the 10% here is not an evaluation target, it is the payout gate, which is a distinction most instant-funding marketing does not draw.

    Why it matters
    Break it and the payout is refused or pushed back.
    Who it affects

  2. 02Trading is frozen for one to three days while they review youBlocks the payout

    Reaching the milestone triggers a risk review, listed as 1-3 working days, and their guide records the state of the account during it as "Trading during review: Paused." So the reward for a good run is a closed platform for up to three working days. Approval moves the profit into a dashboard wallet and issues a scaled account; the external withdrawal then follows the platform payout schedule, which is a further step again.

    Why it matters
    Break it and the payout is refused or pushed back.

EA and copy trading2

  1. 03Only an EA you wrote yourself is allowedCloses the account

    Their prohibited-practices page bans "Running an EA, bot, or algorithm that you did not personally build", and spells out what that covers: "Commercially sold EAs, EAs coded by someone else, or EAs downloaded/shared from external sources". A bought robot is not a grey area here, and neither is one a friend wrote for you.

    Why it matters
    Break it once and the account is closed, whatever the balance.
    Who it affects
    Anyone running an EA, a bot or copying trades, on challenge and funded accounts

    audacity.capital
  2. 04Copy trading only between accounts you ownCloses the account

    Their wording: "Copy trading is allowed between your own accounts within Audacity Capital, copying from an external account is allowed only if the account belongs to you. Third-party copying is not permitted." Mirroring a signal provider, or letting anyone manage the account for you, is out.

    Why it matters
    Break it once and the account is closed, whatever the balance.

News trading1

  1. 05You may not close a trade within three minutes of high-impact newsJudgement call

    News trading is allowed in principle, with this restriction: avoid "opening, closing(TP, SL or manual) or adding to positions within 3 minutes before or after any high impact news release or speech". Read the bracket. Closing counts, and a stop loss or take profit counts as closing, so a position that is stopped out inside the window breaks the rule without the trader touching anything. The only way to comply is to be flat before the window opens.

    Why it matters
    There is no fixed line. Someone at the firm decides whether you broke it.

Scalping and hold time1

  1. 06Scalping is allowed, but under two minutes draws a risk reviewJudgement call

    "We permit scalp trading with us. However, if trades are within two minutes or less, or if there are suspicious trades resembling Arbitrage activity prohibited by the company our Risk Team will take appropriate action. All trades are closely monitored by the Risk Team in this regard." There is no stated threshold and no stated penalty, which is the point: a scalper is permitted and simultaneously flagged, and what happens next is a judgement call.

    Why it matters
    There is no fixed line. Someone at the firm decides whether you broke it.
    Who it affects
    Scalpers and very short trades, on challenge and funded accounts

Consistency1

  1. 07The consistency rule applies to free competitions onlyJudgement call

    Worth recording because the assumption usually runs the other way. On the funded and challenge accounts they state plainly: "No consistency rule required. There is no consistency rule in place." One exists only for free competition accounts, and it is about shape rather than percentages: "Traders must maintain consistency in trade duration and lot sizes to meet the 4-day minimum trading requirement", illustrated with one 15-lot trade followed by three days of 0.1-lot trades failing the test.

    Why it matters
    There is no fixed line. Someone at the firm decides whether you broke it.
    Who it affects
    Traders with one outsized winning day, on challenge accounts
    Source
    audacity.capital

Position size and exposure1

  1. 08Ten lots is the ceiling on any single positionJudgement call

    There is no overall lot limit on the account, but "our provider has implemented a maximum limit of 10 lots per open position as part of risk management measures. You may open multiple positions, but each individual position cannot exceed 10 lots." It is a platform limit rather than a rule that breaches you, so on a large account it shapes how a position has to be built rather than whether it is allowed.

    Why it matters
    There is no fixed line. Someone at the firm decides whether you broke it.
    Who it affects
    Traders holding large or many positions, on challenge and funded accounts

Prohibited strategies1

  1. 09The banned strategies close the account permanentlyCloses the account

    High-frequency trading, latency arbitrage, hedging across accounts, martingale position sizing and dollar-cost averaging into a loser are all listed as prohibited, along with exploiting a platform or data-feed flaw. The consequence is stated without qualification: on abuse "through the use of arbitrage, HFT, DCA, or other prohibited strategies, we will immediately and permanently deactivate the account."

    Why it matters
    Break it once and the account is closed, whatever the balance.
    Who it affects

Minimum days1

  1. 10Five trading days, and each one needs a trade in itBlocks the payout

    Stated as "Minimum trade days: 5 days and a minimum of 1 trade per day". Hitting the profit milestone in two good sessions does not release a payout; the day count has to be filled as well, and a day with no trade in it does not count toward it.

    Why it matters
    Break it and the payout is refused or pushed back.
    Who it affects
    Traders who pass or profit quickly, on funded accounts

    audacity.capital

Identity, VPN and devices1

  1. 11A VPN is prohibited unless you apply for permission firstCloses the account

    Their standard policy is that "the use of VPN services by traders is generally prohibited due to concerns related to IP tracking and the risk of server misuse". An exception is possible but has to be asked for: the trader submits written justification of the purpose, and the request is reviewed and approved case by case. A VPS is a separate matter and is allowed where it runs an Expert Advisor. This is the rule most often reported second-hand as "tell them if you travel", which is a much weaker thing than what is written.

    Why it matters
    Break it once and the account is closed, whatever the balance.
    Who it affects
    Traders who travel or use a VPN, on challenge and funded accounts
