Top One Futures: No trade for 14 calendar days closes the account

Every account needs at least one completed trade in any 14 day window with weekends and holidays counted. Missing it is a hard breach and all progress and profits on the account are lost.

Top One Futures: Trades closed within 10 seconds can cost the profits

Every trade, including any partial close, must stay open longer than 10 seconds. If close to half of your trades or profits break this rule the profits from those trades are removed.

Top One Futures: Requesting a payout locks the drawdown floor at start balance plus $100

Once you request a payout the trailing drawdown stops trailing and is fixed at your starting balance plus $100. Withdrawing most of your profit leaves very little room before a breach.

Top One Futures: News window on Elite Daily and Elite ACCESS funded accounts

On these funded accounts you may not open, close or modify orders from 2 minutes before to 2 minutes after high impact news. A violation can remove the profit from that trade and get the payout denied.

Top One Futures: Trading while physically in a restricted country is a hard breach

Placing trades while travelling in one of the listed restricted countries breaches the account even if you live in an allowed country. Support asks to be told about foreign travel in advance to avoid IP flags.

Top One Futures: Copying trades across different account types or sizes closes accounts

Copying or manually mirroring trades between accounts of a different programme or size counts as prohibited copy trading, even with correlated products such as ES and NQ. It can close every associated account.

Rule Check answers

What Rule Check reads when it calls this firm compatible or a conflict. Open one to read the rule in the firm’s own words.

Can you trade the news?Restricted

Funded Elite Daily and funded Elite ACCESS accounts only: no opening, closing, pending orders or stop/target changes from 2 minutes before to 2 minutes after a high-impact news event. All evaluations and all other programmes have no news rule.

“For Elite Daily accounts, specific restrictions apply to funded accounts only. ... The total restricted window is 4 minutes.”

Can you run an EA or a bot?No

“No, the use of Expert Advisors (EAs) or Bots is not allowed on your accounts.”

Can you copy trades?Restricted

Only between your own Top One accounts of the identical programme and identical size (manual mirroring or correlated products across mismatched accounts also counts). Copying other people, signal services or group alerts is banned. Mirroring your Top One trades to your own accounts at other firms is allowed if the trades originate on Top One.

“You can only copy trades between accounts that belong to the identical program and share the same size.”

Can you trade from a VPS?Restricted

VPS must have a static IP and be registered with support in advance (VPS IP address and service invoice).

“At Top One Futures, we permit the use of Virtual Private Servers (VPS) with static IP addresses for trading purposes.”

Can you trade through a VPN?No

“For this reason, using a VPN may trigger location violations and lead to account suspension or breaches. ... Using a VPN (strictly prohibited)”

Can you hold positions overnight?No

All accounts; open positions are force-liquidated at 4:10 PM EST.

“No, traders must close all positions by 4:10 PM EST.”

Can you hold over the weekend?No

All account types.

“Weekend trading is strictly prohibited, and all markets remain closed during this period. ... All open trades are automatically closed by 4:10 PM EST every trading day.”

Is there a consistency rule?Yes

Payout consistency on funded accounts: Elite Sim Funded 25%, Instant Sim Funded 20%, Ignite 15%, Elite ACCESS funded 40%, S2F Sim PRO 20% Equity Stability Score. No consistency rule in the Elite or Elite ACCESS evaluations. Elite Daily has a 40% rule in its evaluation only and none once funded.

“While there is no consistency rule during the Elite Evaluation phase, once you transition to an Elite Sim Funded Account, a 25% consistency rule applies.”

Minimum trading days1 days

Elite Evaluation (can be passed in one trading day; no consistency rule). Elite Daily evaluation needs enough days to meet its 40% consistency target.

“Additionally, while the minimum requirement is just one trading day, there is no maximum limit—traders can take as much time as they need to hit the profit target, provided they follow the rules.”
